- 22:1 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho.
- 22:2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
- 22:3 And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
- 22:4 And Moab said to the elders of Midian, Now shall this company lick up all that are round about us, as the ox licks up the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time.
- 22:5 He sent messengers therefore to Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt: behold, they cover the face of the earth, and they abide over against me:
- 22:6 Come now therefore, I pray you, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me: peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed.
- 22:7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination in their hand; and they came to Balaam, and spoke to him the words of Balak.
- 22:8 And he said to them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, as the LORD shall speak to me: and the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam.
- 22:9 And God came to Balaam, and said, What men are these with you?
- 22:10 And Balaam said to God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent to me, saying,
- 22:11 Behold, there is a people come out of Egypt, which covers the face of the earth: come now, curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to overcome them, and drive them out.
- 22:12 And God said to Balaam, You shall not go with them; you shall not curse the people: for they are blessed.
- 22:13 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said to the princes of Balak, Get you into your land: for the LORD refuses to give me leave to go with you.
- 22:14 And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went to Balak, and said, Balaam refuses to come with us.
- 22:15 And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honorable than they.
- 22:16 And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus said Balak the son of Zippor, Let nothing, I pray you, hinder you from coming to me:
- 22:17 For I will promote you to very great honor, and I will do whatever you say to me: come therefore, I pray you, curse me this people.
- 22:18 And Balaam answered and said to the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or more.
- 22:19 Now therefore, I pray you, tarry you also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will say to me more.
- 22:20 And God came to Balaam at night, and said to him, If the men come to call you, rise up, and go with them; but yet the word which I shall say to you, that shall you do.
- 22:21 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
- 22:22 And God’s anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding on his ass, and his two servants were with him.
- 22:23 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.
- 22:24 But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
- 22:25 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself to the wall, and crushed Balaam’s foot against the wall: and he smote her again.
- 22:26 And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.
- 22:27 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam’s anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff.
- 22:28 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said to Balaam, What have I done to you, that you have smitten me these three times?
- 22:29 And Balaam said to the ass, Because you have mocked me: I would there were a sword in my hand, for now would I kill you.
- 22:30 And the ass said to Balaam, Am not I your ass, on which you have ridden ever since I was your to this day? was I ever wont to do so to you? And he said, No.
- 22:31 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.
- 22:32 And the angel of the LORD said to him, Why have you smitten your ass these three times? behold, I went out to withstand you, because your way is perverse before me:
- 22:33 And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain you, and saved her alive.
- 22:34 And Balaam said to the angel of the LORD, I have sinned; for I knew not that you stood in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease you, I will get me back again.
- 22:35 And the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, Go with the men: but only the word that I shall speak to you, that you shall speak. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
- 22:36 And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him to a city of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost coast.
- 22:37 And Balak said to Balaam, Did I not earnestly send to you to call you? why came you not to me? am I not able indeed to promote you to honor?
- 22:38 And Balaam said to Balak, See, I am come to you: have I now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God puts in my mouth, that shall I speak.
- 22:39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kirjathhuzoth.
- 22:40 And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.
- 22:41 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, that there he might see the utmost part of the people.

- 21:1 And when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelled in the south, heard tell that Israel came by the way of the spies; then he fought against Israel, and took some of them prisoners.
- 21:2 And Israel vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.
- 21:3 And the LORD listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities: and he called the name of the place Hormah.
- 21:4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
- 21:5 And the people spoke against God, and against Moses, Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loathes this light bread.
- 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
- 21:7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD, and against you; pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
- 21:8 And the LORD said to Moses, Make you a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looks on it, shall live.
- 21:9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it on a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.
- 21:10 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth.
- 21:11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sun rise.
- 21:12 From there they removed, and pitched in the valley of Zared.
- 21:13 From there they removed, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the coasts of the Amorites: for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
- 21:14 Why it is said in the book of the wars of the LORD, What he did in the Red sea, and in the brooks of Arnon,
- 21:15 And at the stream of the brooks that goes down to the dwelling of Ar, and lies on the border of Moab.
- 21:16 And from there they went to Beer: that is the well whereof the LORD spoke to Moses, Gather the people together, and I will give them water.
- 21:17 Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing you to it:
- 21:18 The princes dig the well, the nobles of the people dig it, by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah:
- 21:19 And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth:
- 21:20 And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks toward Jeshimon.
- 21:21 And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
- 21:22 Let me pass through your land: we will not turn into the fields, or into the vineyards; we will not drink of the waters of the well: but we will go along by the king’s high way, until we be past your borders.
- 21:23 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness: and he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
- 21:24 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from Arnon to Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon: for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
- 21:25 And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelled in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof.
- 21:26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to Arnon.
- 21:27 Why they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared:
- 21:28 For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon: it has consumed Ar of Moab, and the lords of the high places of Arnon.
- 21:29 Woe to you, Moab! you are undone, O people of Chemosh: he has given his sons that escaped, and his daughters, into captivity to Sihon king of the Amorites.
- 21:30 We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even to Dibon, and we have laid them waste even to Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.
- 21:31 Thus Israel dwelled in the land of the Amorites.
- 21:32 And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
- 21:33 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei.
- 21:34 And the LORD said to Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelled at Heshbon.
- 21:35 So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him alive: and they possessed his land.

- 20:1 Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people stayed in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
- 20:2 And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
- 20:3 And the people strived with Moses, and spoke, saying, Would God that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD!
- 20:4 And why have you brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there?
- 20:5 And why have you made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in to this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink.
- 20:6 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell on their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared to them.
- 20:7 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 20:8 Take the rod, and gather you the assembly together, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak you to the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and you shall bring forth to them water out of the rock: so you shall give the congregation and their beasts drink.
- 20:9 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
- 20:10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said to them, Hear now, you rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?
- 20:11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.
- 20:12 And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, Because you believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.
- 20:13 This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
- 20:14 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, Thus said your brother Israel, You know all the travail that has befallen us:
- 20:15 How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelled in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:
- 20:16 And when we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and has brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of your border:
- 20:17 Let us pass, I pray you, through your country: we will not pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king’s high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your borders.
- 20:18 And Edom said to him, You shall not pass by me, lest I come out against you with the sword.
- 20:19 And the children of Israel said to him, We will go by the high way: and if I and my cattle drink of your water, then I will pay for it: I will only, without doing anything else, go through on my feet.
- 20:20 And he said, You shall not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
- 20:21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: why Israel turned away from him.
- 20:22 And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came to mount Hor.
- 20:23 And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
- 20:24 Aaron shall be gathered to his people: for he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.
- 20:25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to mount Hor:
- 20:26 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and shall die there.
- 20:27 And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
- 20:28 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.

- 19:1 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
- 19:2 This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD has commanded, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring you a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and on which never came yoke:
- 19:3 And you shall give her to Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without the camp, and one shall slay her before his face:
- 19:4 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times:
- 19:5 And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:
- 19:6 And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the middle of the burning of the heifer.
- 19:7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the even.
- 19:8 And he that burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.
- 19:9 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin.
- 19:10 And he that gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it shall be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger that sojournes among them, for a statute for ever.
- 19:11 He that touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days.
- 19:12 He shall purify himself with it on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean: but if he purify not himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
- 19:13 Whoever touches the dead body of any man that is dead, and purifies not himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel: because the water of separation was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet on him.
- 19:14 This is the law, when a man dies in a tent: all that come into the tent, and all that is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.
- 19:15 And every open vessel, which has no covering bound on it, is unclean.
- 19:16 And whoever touches one that is slain with a sword in the open fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
- 19:17 And for an unclean person they shall take of the ashes of the burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water shall be put thereto in a vessel:
- 19:18 And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, and on all the vessels, and on the persons that were there, and on him that touched a bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave:
- 19:19 And the clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall purify himself, and wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at even.
- 19:20 But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD: the water of separation has not been sprinkled on him; he is unclean.
- 19:21 And it shall be a perpetual statute to them, that he that sprinkles the water of separation shall wash his clothes; and he that touches the water of separation shall be unclean until even.
- 19:22 And whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until even.

- 18:1 And the LORD said to Aaron, You and your sons and your father’s house with you shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and you and your sons with you shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
- 18:2 And your brothers also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring you with you, that they may be joined to you, and minister to you: but you and your sons with you shall minister before the tabernacle of witness.
- 18:3 And they shall keep your charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only they shall not come near the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor you also, die.
- 18:4 And they shall be joined to you, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger shall not come near to you.
- 18:5 And you shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar: that there be no wrath any more on the children of Israel.
- 18:6 And I, behold, I have taken your brothers the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the LORD, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
- 18:7 Therefore you and your sons with you shall keep your priest’s office for everything of the altar, and within the veil; and you shall serve: I have given your priest’s office to you as a service of gift: and the stranger that comes near shall be put to death.
- 18:8 And the LORD spoke to Aaron, Behold, I also have given you the charge of my heave offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel; to you have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to your sons, by an ordinance for ever.
- 18:9 This shall be your of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every oblation of theirs, every meat offering of theirs, and every sin offering of theirs, and every trespass offering of theirs which they shall render to me, shall be most holy for you and for your sons.
- 18:10 In the most holy place shall you eat it; every male shall eat it: it shall be holy to you.
- 18:11 And this is yours; the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of the children of Israel: I have given them to you, and to your sons and to your daughters with you, by a statute for ever: every one that is clean in your house shall eat of it.
- 18:12 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of the wheat, the first fruits of them which they shall offer to the LORD, them have I given you.
- 18:13 And whatever is first ripe in the land, which they shall bring to the LORD, shall be yours; every one that is clean in your house shall eat of it.
- 18:14 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be yours.
- 18:15 Every thing that opens the matrix in all flesh, which they bring to the LORD, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be yours: nevertheless the firstborn of man shall you surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts shall you redeem.
- 18:16 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shall you redeem, according to your estimation, for the money of five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.
- 18:17 But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy: you shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the LORD.
- 18:18 And the flesh of them shall be yours, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are yours.
- 18:19 All the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to the LORD, have I given you, and your sons and your daughters with you, by a statute for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the LORD to you and to your seed with you.
- 18:20 And the LORD spoke to Aaron, You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any part among them: I am your part and your inheritance among the children of Israel.
- 18:21 And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
- 18:22 Neither must the children of Israel from now on come near the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die.
- 18:23 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance.
- 18:24 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said to them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.
- 18:25 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 18:26 Thus speak to the Levites, and say to them, When you take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall offer up an heave offering of it for the LORD, even a tenth part of the tithe.
- 18:27 And this your heave offering shall be reckoned to you, as though it were the corn of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the wine press.
- 18:28 Thus you also shall offer an heave offering to the LORD of all your tithes, which you receive of the children of Israel; and you shall give thereof the LORD’s heave offering to Aaron the priest.
- 18:29 Out of all your gifts you shall offer every heave offering of the LORD, of all the best thereof, even the hallowed part thereof out of it.
- 18:30 Therefore you shall say to them, When you have heaved the best thereof from it, then it shall be counted to the Levites as the increase of the threshing floor, and as the increase of the wine press.
- 18:31 And you shall eat it in every place, you and your households: for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation.
- 18:32 And you shall bear no sin by reason of it, when you have heaved from it the best of it: neither shall you pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, lest you die.

- 17:2 Speak to the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods: write you every man’s name on his rod.
- 17:3 And you shall write Aaron’s name on the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.

- 17:12 And the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.
- 17:13 Whoever comes any thing near to the tabernacle of the LORD shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?

- 16:1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
- 16:2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
- 16:3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, You take too much on you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: why then lift you up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
- 16:4 And when Moses heard it, he fell on his face:
- 16:5 And he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near to him: even him whom he has chosen will he cause to come near to him.
- 16:6 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
- 16:7 And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD does choose, he shall be holy: you take too much on you, you sons of Levi.
- 16:8 And Moses said to Korah, Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi:
- 16:9 Seems it but a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them?
- 16:10 And he has brought you near to him, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you: and seek you the priesthood also?
- 16:11 For which cause both you and all your company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that you murmur against him?
- 16:12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
- 16:13 Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land that flows with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except you make yourself altogether a prince over us?
- 16:14 Moreover you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: will you put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
- 16:15 And Moses was very wroth, and said to the LORD, Respect not you their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
- 16:16 And Moses said to Korah, Be you and all your company before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
- 16:17 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring you before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.
- 16:18 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
- 16:19 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the congregation.
- 16:20 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
- 16:21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
- 16:22 And they fell on their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be wroth with all the congregation?
- 16:23 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 16:24 Speak to the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
- 16:25 And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
- 16:26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of their’s, lest you be consumed in all their sins.
- 16:27 So they got up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
- 16:28 And Moses said, Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of my own mind.
- 16:29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD has not sent me.
- 16:30 But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain to them, and they go down quick into the pit; then you shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD.
- 16:31 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground split asunder that was under them:
- 16:32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained to Korah, and all their goods.
- 16:33 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed on them: and they perished from among the congregation.
- 16:34 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
- 16:35 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
- 16:36 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 16:37 Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter you the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.
- 16:38 The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel.
- 16:39 And Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers, with which they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
- 16:40 To be a memorial to the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.
- 16:41 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, You have killed the people of the LORD.
- 16:42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
- 16:43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
- 16:44 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 16:45 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell on their faces.
- 16:46 And Moses said to Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly to the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.
- 16:47 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the middle of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
- 16:48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
- 16:49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
- 16:50 And Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.

- 15:1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 15:2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you be come into the land of your habitations, which I give to you,
- 15:3 And will make an offering by fire to the LORD, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet smell to the LORD, of the herd or of the flock:
- 15:4 Then shall he that offers his offering to the LORD bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of oil.
- 15:5 And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shall you prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb.
- 15:6 Or for a ram, you shall prepare for a meat offering two tenth deals of flour mingled with the third part of an hin of oil.
- 15:7 And for a drink offering you shall offer the third part of an hin of wine, for a sweet smell to the LORD.
- 15:8 And when you prepare a bullock for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings to the LORD:
- 15:9 Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil.
- 15:10 And you shall bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet smell to the LORD.
- 15:11 Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for a lamb, or a kid.
- 15:12 According to the number that you shall prepare, so shall you do to every one according to their number.
- 15:13 All that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet smell to the LORD.
- 15:14 And if a stranger sojourn with you, or whoever be among you in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet smell to the LORD; as you do, so he shall do.
- 15:15 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojournes with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as you are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD.
- 15:16 One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojournes with you.
- 15:17 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 15:18 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you come into the land where I bring you,
- 15:19 Then it shall be, that, when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall offer up an heave offering to the LORD.
- 15:20 You shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for an heave offering: as you do the heave offering of the threshing floor, so shall you heave it.
- 15:21 Of the first of your dough you shall give to the LORD an heave offering in your generations.
- 15:22 And if you have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which the LORD has spoken to Moses,
- 15:23 Even all that the LORD has commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the LORD commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations;
- 15:24 Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet smell to the LORD, with his meat offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the goats for a sin offering.
- 15:25 And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them; for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire to the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD, for their ignorance:
- 15:26 And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojournes among them; seeing all the people were in ignorance.
- 15:27 And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first year for a sin offering.
- 15:28 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sins ignorantly, when he sins by ignorance before the LORD, to make an atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him.
- 15:29 You shall have one law for him that sins through ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojournes among them.
- 15:30 But the soul that does ought presumptuously, whether he be born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproaches the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
- 15:31 Because he has despised the word of the LORD, and has broken his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be on him.
- 15:32 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks on the sabbath day.
- 15:33 And they that found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
- 15:34 And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
- 15:35 And the LORD said to Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.
- 15:36 And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses.
- 15:37 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 15:38 Speak to the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put on the fringe of the borders a ribbon of blue:
- 15:39 And it shall be to you for a fringe, that you may look on it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that you seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to go a whoring:
- 15:40 That you may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.
- 15:41 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God.
Numbers 14

- 14:1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
- 14:2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said to them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!
- 14:3 And why has the LORD brought us to this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?
- 14:4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
- 14:5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
- 14:6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
- 14:7 And they spoke to all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land.
- 14:8 If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which flows with milk and honey.
- 14:9 Only rebel not you against the LORD, neither fear you the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defense is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not.
- 14:10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.
- 14:11 And the LORD said to Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have showed among them?
- 14:12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of you a greater nation and mightier than they.
- 14:13 And Moses said to the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for you brought up this people in your might from among them;)
- 14:14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that you LORD are among this people, that you LORD are seen face to face, and that your cloud stands over them, and that you go before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
- 14:15 Now if you shall kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of you will speak, saying,
- 14:16 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land which he swore to them, therefore he has slain them in the wilderness.
- 14:17 And now, I beseech you, let the power of my LORD be great, according as you have spoken, saying,
- 14:18 The LORD is long-suffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.
- 14:19 Pardon, I beseech you, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of your mercy, and as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
- 14:20 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to your word:
- 14:21 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD.
- 14:22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not listened to my voice;
- 14:23 Surely they shall not see the land which I swore to their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:
- 14:24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him will I bring into the land into where he went; and his seed shall possess it.
- 14:25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelled in the valley.) Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
- 14:26 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
- 14:27 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
- 14:28 Say to them, As truly as I live, said the LORD, as you have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you:
- 14:29 Your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me.
- 14:30 Doubtless you shall not come into the land, concerning which I swore to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
- 14:31 But your little ones, which you said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which you have despised.
- 14:32 But as for you, your carcasses, they shall fall in this wilderness.
- 14:33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your prostitutions, until your carcasses be wasted in the wilderness.
- 14:34 After the number of the days in which you searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall you bear your iniquities, even forty years, and you shall know my breach of promise.
- 14:35 I the LORD have said, I will surely do it to all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
- 14:36 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander on the land,
- 14:37 Even those men that did bring up the evil report on the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
- 14:38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.
- 14:39 And Moses told these sayings to all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.
- 14:40 And they rose up early in the morning, and got them up into the top of the mountain, saying, See, we be here, and will go up to the place which the LORD has promised: for we have sinned.
- 14:41 And Moses said, Why now do you transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper.
- 14:42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that you be not smitten before your enemies.
- 14:43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you shall fall by the sword: because you are turned away from the LORD, therefore the LORD will not be with you.
- 14:44 But they presumed to go up to the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp.
- 14:45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelled in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even to Hormah.

- 13:1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
- 13:2 Send you men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall you send a man, every one a ruler among them.
- 13:3 And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel.
- 13:4 And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.
- 13:5 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.
- 13:6 Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
- 13:7 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
- 13:8 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun.
- 13:9 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu.
- 13:10 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi.
- 13:11 Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.
- 13:12 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.
- 13:13 Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael.
- 13:14 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi.
- 13:15 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
- 13:16 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua.
- 13:17 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain:
- 13:18 And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwells therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;
- 13:19 And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;
- 13:20 And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be you of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes.
- 13:21 So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
- 13:22 And they ascended by the south, and came to Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
- 13:23 And they came to the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bore it between two on a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
- 13:24 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from there.
- 13:25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
- 13:26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word to them, and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.
- 13:27 And they told him, and said, We came to the land where you sent us, and surely it flows with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
- 13:28 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.
- 13:29 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.
- 13:30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.
- 13:31 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
- 13:32 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched to the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eats up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.
- 13:33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
