6 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

² If a person commits a sin, a trespass against the LORD, and denies unto his neighbour that which was delivered unto him to keep or left in his hand, or in a thing stolen, or has slandered his neighbour;

³ or has found that which was lost and then denies it and swears falsely, in any of all these in which a man can sin,

⁴ then it shall be that because he has sinned and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he stole, or for the damage of the slander, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,

⁵ or all that about which he has sworn falsely, he shall even restore it in the principal and shall add the fifth part more to it, for the one to whom it belongs, and he shall pay in the day of his guiltiness.

⁶ And he shall bring for the expiation of his guilt unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flock, in thy estimation, for his guilt, unto the priest;

⁷ and the priest shall reconcile him before the LORD, and he shall have forgiveness for any of all of the things in which he is guilty.

⁸ ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

⁹ Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt offering (it is the burnt offering because of the burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be burning in it):

¹⁰ And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen underwear shall he put upon his flesh, and when the fire has consumed the burnt offering, he shall take up the ashes with the burnt fat on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.

¹¹ Then he shall put off his garments and put on other garments and carry forth the ashes with the burnt fat outside the camp unto a clean place.

¹² And the fire burning upon the altar shall not be put out, but the priest shall put wood on it every morning and lay the burnt offering in order upon it, and he shall burn upon it the fat of the peace.

¹³ The fire shall burn continuously upon the altar; it shall not be put out.

¹⁴ ¶ And this is the law of the present: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, before the altar.

¹⁵ And he shall take of it a handful of the flour of the present and of the oil thereof and all the frankincense which is upon the present and shall incense it upon the altar in an aroma of rest unto the LORD for a memorial.

¹⁶ And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat; without leaven it shall be eaten in the holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of the testimony they shall eat it.

¹⁷ It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it unto them for their portion of my offerings on fire; it is most holy, as is the atonement for sin and the expiation of guilt.

¹⁸ All the males among the sons of Aaron shall eat of it. It shall be a perpetual statute in your generations concerning the offerings on fire of the LORD; every thing that touches them shall be sanctified.

¹⁹ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁰ This shall be the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer unto the LORD in the day when they shall be anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a perpetual present, half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening.

²¹ In a pan it shall be made with oil; and when it is fried, thou shalt bring it in; and the cooked pieces of the present shalt thou offer in a very acceptable aroma unto the LORD.

²² And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead shall offer it; it is a perpetual statute unto the LORD; it shall be completely burnt.

²³ And every present of a priest shall be completely burnt; it shall not be eaten.

²⁴ ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁵ Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This shall be the law of sin: In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the atonement as sin be killed before the LORD; for it is most holy.

²⁶ The priest that offers it for the sin shall eat it; in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the testimony.

²⁷ Whatever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be sanctified; and when some of the blood thereof is sprinkled upon any garment, thou shalt wash whatever it was sprinkled on in the holy place.

²⁸ But the earthen vessel wherein it is cooked shall be broken; and if it is cooked in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured and rinsed in water.

²⁹ All the males among the priests shall eat of it; it is most holy.

³⁰ And no atonement as sin, of which any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the testimony to reconcile in the sanctuary, shall be eaten; it shall be burnt in the fire.

7 ¶ Likewise this shall be the law of the expiation of guilt; it shall be most holy.

² In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the expiation of guilt, and he shall sprinkle its blood round about upon the altar.

³ And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof, the tail and the fat that covers the intestines

⁴ and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them and that which is on the flanks and with the kidneys he shall take away the caul that is above the liver.

⁵ And the priest shall incense them upon the altar for an offering on fire unto the LORD; and this shall be the expiation of guilt.

⁶ Every male among the priests shall eat thereof; it shall be eaten in the holy place for it is most holy.

⁷ As with the sin, so shall it be with the guilt; they shall have the same law; the priest that has made the reconciliation shall have that which was offered.

⁸ And the priest that offers anyone’s burnt offering, even the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.

⁹ Likewise every present that is baked in the oven and all that is dressed in the fryingpan or in the pot shall be the priest’s that offers it.

¹⁰ And every present mingled with oil and dry shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.

¹¹ ¶ And this shall be the law of the sacrifice of peace, which shall be offered unto the LORD.

¹² If it is offered in thanksgiving, then he shall offer for the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil and unleavened wafers anointed with oil and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.

¹³ With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering in the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace.

¹⁴ And out of the whole offering he shall offer part to be elevated in offering unto the LORD, and it shall be the priest’s that sprinkles the blood of the peace.

¹⁵ And the flesh of his sacrifice of peace for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.

¹⁶ But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow, or voluntary, it shall be eaten the same day that he offers his sacrifice; and that which is left of it shall be eaten the next day;

¹⁷ but that which is left of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.

¹⁸ And if any of the flesh of his sacrifice of peace is eaten at all on the third day, he that offers it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him; it shall be an abomination, and the person that eats of it shall bear his iniquity.

¹⁹ And the flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire; but every clean person shall eat of this flesh.

²⁰ And the person that eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace, which is of the LORD, being unclean, that person shall be cut off from his people.

²¹ Moreover the person that shall touch any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man or any unclean beast or any abominable unclean thing and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace, which is of the LORD, that person shall be cut off from his people.

²² And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²³ Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox or of sheep or of goat.

²⁴ And the fat of the beast that died of itself and the fat of that which is torn by beasts may be used in any other use, but ye shall not eat of it.

²⁵ For whosoever eats fat of an animal, of which an offering is made on fire unto the LORD, the person that eats it shall be cut off from his people.

²⁶ Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether it is of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.

²⁷ Whatever person it is that eats any manner of blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.

⁷ But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea

⁸ and from Jerusalem and from Idumaea and from beyond Jordan. And those who dwell around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came unto him.

⁹ And he spoke to his disciples that a small ship should wait on him because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.

¹⁰ For he had healed many, insomuch that as many as had plagues pressed upon him to touch him.

¹¹ And the unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him and cried out, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

¹² And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.

¹³ ¶ And he went up to the mountain and called unto himself whom he would, and they came unto him.

¹⁴ And he established twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach

¹⁵ and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out devils:

¹⁶ Simon, whom he gave the name Peter;

¹⁷ and James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed them Boanerges, which is The sons of thunder;

¹⁸ and Andrew and Philip and Bartholomew and Matthew and Thomas and James the son of Alphaeus and Thaddaeus and Simon the Canaanite

¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him; and they came home.

²⁰ And the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

²¹ And when his friends and family heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him; for they said, He is beside himself.

²² ¶ But the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said that he had Beelzebub and that by the prince of the devils he cast out devils.

²³ And he called them unto him and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

²⁴ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot remain.

²⁵ And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot remain.

²⁶ And if Satan rises up against himself and is divided, he cannot remain, but has an end.

²⁷ No man can enter into a strong man’s house and spoil his goods except he will first bind the strong man, and then he will spoil his house.

²⁸ Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men and whatever blasphemies with which they shall blaspheme,

²⁹ but whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit shall never have forgiveness but is obligated to eternal judgment,

³⁰ because they said, He has an unclean spirit.

A Psalm of David.

Aleph

He

⁸ Cease from anger and forsake wrath: let not thy wrath in any wise cause you to become evil.

⁹ For evildoers shall be cut off; but those that wait for the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

Vau

¹⁰ For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be; thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.

¹¹ But the meek shall inherit the earth and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

³ The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish, but wickedness shall cast out the wicked.

⁴ ¶ He that deals with a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.
