34 Then Moses went from the plain of Moab up into Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah that is opposite Jericho. And the LORD showed him all the land of Gilead, to Dan,
2 and all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, to the western sea,
3 and the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, to Zoar.
4 And the LORD said to him, “This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your seed.’ I have allowed you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”
5 So Moses, the servant of the LORD, died there in the land of Moab, according to the Word of the LORD.
6 And He buried him in a valley, in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Peor. But no one knows of his sepulcher to this day.
7 Moses was now a hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
8 And the children of Israel wept for Moses on the plain of Moab for thirty days. So the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were ended.
9 And Joshua, the son of Nun, was full of the spirit of wisdom. For Moses had put his hands upon him. And the children of Israel were obedient to him and did as the LORD had Commanded Moses.
10 But since then there has not arisen a Prophet like Moses in Israel — whom the LORD knew face to face —
11 in all the miracles and wonders which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt, before Pharaoh and before all his servants and before all his land,
12 and in all the mighty hand and all the great fear which Moses wrought in the sight of all Israel.
1 Now after the death of Moses, the servant of the LORD, the LORD spoke to Joshua, the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,
2 “Moses, My servant, is dead. Therefore, arise now, go over the Jordan— you and all this people—to the land which I give them; to the children of Israel.
3 “Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon I have given you (as I said to Moses),
4 “from the wilderness and this Lebanon to the great river (the river Perath). All the land of the Hittites, even to the Great Sea, toward the going down of the Sun, shall be your territory.
5 “There shall not be a man able to withstand you, all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, I will be with you. I will neither leave you nor forsake you.
6 “Be strong and of a good courage. For to this people you shall divide the land, for an inheritance, which I swore to their fathers to give them.
7 “Only, be strong and of a most valiant courage, so that you may observe and do according to all the Law which Moses, My servant, has commanded you. You shall not turn away from it — to the right hand or to the left — so that you may be wise, wherever you go.
8 “Let not this Book of the Torah depart out of your mouth, but meditate on it day and night, so that you may observe and do according to all that is written therein. For then you shall make your way prosperous; and then you shall have good success.
9 “Have I not commanded you, saying, ‘Be strong and of a good courage; do not fear or be discouraged’? For I, the LORD your God, will be with you wherever you go.”
10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
11 “Pass through the camp and command the people, saying, ‘Prepare provisions for yourselves. For after three days you shall pass over the Jordan, to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess.’”
12 And Joshua spoke to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to half the tribe of Manasseh, saying,
13 “Remember the Word which Moses, the servant of the LORD, commanded you, saying, ‘The LORD your God has given you rest; and has given you this land.’
14 “Your wives, your children, and your cattle shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But you shall go over before your brothers, armed (all that are men of war), and shall help them
15 “until the LORD has given your brothers rest (as well as to you) and until they shall also possess the land which the LORD your God gives them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession (which Moses, the LORD’s servant, gave you on this side of the Jordan, toward the rising Sun). And you shall possess it.”
16 Then they answered Joshua, saying, “All that you have commanded us, we will do. And wherever you send us, we will go.
17 “As we obeyed Moses in all things, so will we obey you. Only the LORD your God be with you, as He was with Moses.
18 “Whoever shall rebel against your commandment, and will not obey your words in all that you command him, let him be put to death. Only be strong and of good courage.”
2 Then Joshua, the son of Nun, sent two men out of Shittim to spy, secretly, saying, “Go view the land, and Jericho.” And they went and came into a harlot’s house, named Rahab, and lodged there.
2 And it was told to the king of Jericho, saying, “Behold, men from the children of Israel have come here tonight to spy on the country.”
3 And the king of Jericho sent word to Rahab, saying, “Bring forth the men who have come to you, who have entered into your house. For they have come to spy on all the land.”
4 But the woman had taken the two men and hidden them. Therefore, she said this, “Men came to me, but I did not know where they were from.
5 “And when they shut the gate in the dark, the men went out. I do not know where the men went. Follow after them quickly, for you shall overtake them!”
6 But she had brought them up to the roof of the house and hidden them with the stalks of flax which she had spread out upon the roof.
7 And the men pursued after them on the road to Jordan, to the fords. And as soon as those who pursued after them had gone out, they shut the gate.
8 And before they were asleep, she came up to them on the roof,
9 and said to the men, “I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you.
10 “For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan (to Sihon and to Og), whom you utterly destroyed.
11 “And when we heard it, our hearts fainted. And there remained no more courage in anyone, because of you. For the LORD your God, He is the God in Heaven above, and on Earth beneath.
12 “Now, therefore, please swear to me, by the LORD, that as I have shown you mercy, you will also show mercy to my father’s house. And give me a true sign
13 “that you will save alive my father and my mother and my brothers and my sisters and all that they have; and that you will deliver our souls from death.”
14 And the men answered her, “Our life for yours if you do not utter this business of ours. And when the LORD has given us the land, we will deal mercifully and truly with you.”
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window, for her house was upon the town wall; and she dwelt upon the wall.
16 And she said to them, “Go into the mountain, lest the pursuers encounter you, and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have turned back. Then, afterward, you may go your way.”
17 And the men said to her, “We will be blameless of this oath which you have made us swear
18 if, when we come into the land, you shall bind this cord of red in the window whereby you let us down. And you shall bring your father and your mother and your brothers and all your father’s household home to you.
19 “And whoever then goes out at the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head. And we will be guiltless. But, whoever shall be with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head if any hand touches him.
20 “And if you utter this matter, we will be released from your oath which you have made us swear.”
21 And she answered, “According to your words, so be it.” Then she sent them away and they departed. And she bound the red cord in the window.
22 And they departed and came into the mountain and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had returned. And the pursuers sought them all along the road but did not find them.
23 So the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua, the son of Nun, and told him all things that happened to them.
24 Also they said to Joshua, “Surely the LORD has delivered all the land into our hands. For all the inhabitants of the country faint because of us.”
22 And He went through all cities and towns, teaching and journeying towards Jerusalem.
23 Then someone said to Him, “Lord, are there few who shall be saved?” And He said to them,
24 “Strive to enter in at the narrow gate. For many, I say to you, will seek to enter in and shall not be able.
25 “When the master of the house has risen up and has shut the door; and you began to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us’, and he shall answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’
26 “Then you shall begin to say, ‘We have eaten and drunk in your presence, and you have taught in our streets.’
27 “But he shall say, ‘I tell you. I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity!’
28 “There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you shall see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the Prophets in the Kingdom of God; and yourselves thrust out at the doors.
29 “Then many shall come from the east and from the west and from the north and from the south and shall sit at table in the Kingdom of God.
30 “And behold, there are last who shall be first. And there are first who shall be last.”
31 The same day, some Pharisees came and said to Him, “Depart and go from here! For Herod wants to kill you!”
32 Then He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and will keep healing today and tomorrow. And the third day I shall complete it.’
33 “Nevertheless, I must walk today and tomorrow and the day after. For it cannot be that a Prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.
34 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the Prophets and stones those who are sent to you! How often would I have gathered your children together, as the hen gathers her brood under her wings. And you would not.
35 “Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And truly I tell you, you shall not see Me until the time comes that you shall say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord.’”
14 And it happened that when He had entered into the house of one of the chief Pharisees on the Sabbath to eat bread, they watched Him.
2 And behold, there was a certain man before Him who suffered from edema.
3 Then Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
4 And they held their peace. Then He took him and healed him and let him go.
5 And He answered them, saying, “Who of you shall have a donkey or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?”
6 And again they could not answer Him about those things.
79 O God, the heathen have come into Your inheritance. They have defiled Your Holy Temple and made Jerusalem heaps of stones.
2 The dead bodies of Your servants they have given to be food to birds of the heaven, and the flesh of Your saints to the beasts of the Earth.
3 They have shed their blood like waters, all around Jerusalem; and there was no one to bury them.
4 We are a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and derision to those around us.
5 LORD, how long will You be angry? Forever? Shall Your jealousy burn like fire?
6 Pour out Your wrath upon the heathen who have not known You, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon Your Name.
7 For they have devoured Jacob and made His dwelling place desolate.
8 Do not remember our former iniquities against us, but let Your tender mercies come quickly to meet us; for we are in great misery.
9 Help us, O God of Our Salvation, for the Glory of Your Name; and deliver us and be merciful to our sins for Your Name’s sake.
10 Why should the heathen say, “Where is their God?” Let them be known among the heathen in our sight by the vengeance of the blood of Your servants that is shed.
11 Let the sighing of the prisoners come before You. Preserve the children of death according to Your mighty arm
12 and render to our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom their reproach with which they have reproached You, O LORD.
13 So we, Your people, and sheep of Your pasture, shall praise You forever; and from generation to generation we will set forth Your praise. To him who excels on Shoshannim Eduth: A Psalm committed to Asaph
26 The righteous is more excellent than his neighbor. But the way of the wicked will deceive them.
