11 Afterward, the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say, ‘These are the animals which you shall eat among all the animals that are on the Earth:
3 ‘Whatever parts the hoof among the animals, and is cloven-footed and chews the cud, that shall you eat.
4 ‘But of those that chew the cud and divide the hoof, you shall not eat these. The camel, because it chews the cud and does not divide the hoof, shall be unclean to you.
5 ‘Likewise, the rock badger, because it chews the cud and does not divide the hoof, shall be unclean to you.
6 ‘Also the hare, because it chews the cud and does not divide the hoof, shall be unclean to you.
7 ‘And the swine, because it parts the hoof and is cloven-footed, but does not chew the cud, shall be unclean to you.
8 ‘Of their flesh you shall not eat. And their carcass you shall not touch. They shall be unclean to you.
9 ‘Of all that are in the waters, you shall eat these: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, or in the rivers, you shall eat.
10 ‘But all that do not have fins or scales, in the seas or in the rivers—of all that moves in the waters and of all living things that are in the waters—they shall be an abomination to you.
11 ‘They, I say, shall be an abomination to you. You shall not eat of their flesh but shall abhor their carcass.
12 ‘Whatever in the waters that does not have fins or scales shall be abomination to you.
13 ‘Also, you shall hold these in abomination among the birds. They shall not be eaten. They are an abomination: the eagle and the goshawk and the osprey,
14 ‘and the vulture, and the kite (after its kind),
15 ‘the ravens (after their kind),
16 ‘the ostrich, and the night-crow, and the seamew, and the hawk (after its kind),
17 ‘and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 ‘the redshank, and the pelican, and the swan,
19 ‘the stork, the heron (after its kind), and the lapwing, and the bat,
20 ‘and every insect that creeps and goes upon all fours. Such shall be an abomination to you.
21 ‘Of these you shall still eat: every insect that creeps and goes upon all fours which have their feet and legs all of one, with which to leap upon the Earth.
22 ‘Of those you shall eat these: the locust (after its kind) and the winged locust (after its kind), the beetle (after its kind), and the grasshopper (after its kind).
23 ‘But all other insects which creep and have four feet shall be abomination to you.
24 ‘For by such you shall be polluted. Whoever touches the carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
25 ‘Also, whoever carries the carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until evening.
26 ‘Every animal that has divided claws, and is not cloven-footed or chews the cud, shall be unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.
27 ‘And whatever goes upon its paws among all types of animals that go on all fours shall be unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until evening.
28 ‘And he who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. Such shall be unclean to you.
29 ‘Also, these shall be unclean to you among the things that creep and move upon the Earth: the weasel, and the mouse, and the frog (after its kind),
30 ‘the rat, and the lizard, and the chameleon, and the snail, and the mole.
31 ‘These shall be unclean to you among all that creeps. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening.
32 ‘Also, whatever any of the dead carcasses falls upon shall be unclean, be it a vessel of wood or raiment or skin or sack. Whatever vessel it is that is used shall be put in the water as unclean until the evening and be purified.
33 ‘But every earthen vessel wherein any of them falls, whatever is within it shall be unclean. And you shall break it.
34 ‘Also, all food that shall be eaten (if any such water comes upon it) shall be unclean. And all drink that shall be drunk in all such vessels shall be unclean.
35 ‘And everything that their carcass falls upon shall be unclean. The furnace, or the pot, shall be broken. They are unclean and shall be unclean to you.
36 ‘Yet the fountains and wells where there is plenty of water shall be clean. But that which touches their carcasses shall be unclean.
37 ‘And if the dead carcass falls upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.
38 ‘But if any water is poured upon the seed, and the dead carcass falls on it, it shall be unclean to you.
39 ‘Also, if any animal of which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
40 ‘And he who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. Also, he who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.
41 ‘Therefore, every creeping thing that creeps upon the Earth shall be an abomination, not to be eaten.
42 ‘Whatever goes upon its belly and whatever goes upon all fours, or that has many feet among all creeping things that creep upon the Earth, you shall not eat of them. They shall be abomination.
43 ‘You shall not pollute yourselves with anything that creeps, nor make yourselves unclean with them, nor defile yourselves by them. You shall not, I say, be defiled by them.
44 ‘For I am the LORD your God. Be sanctified, therefore, and be holy. For I am holy. And do not defile yourselves with any creeping thing that creeps upon the Earth.
45 ‘For I am the LORD Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God, and that you should be holy. For I am holy.
46 ‘This is the law of beasts and of birds and of every living thing that moves in the waters and of everything that creeps upon the Earth,
47 ‘so that there may be a difference between the unclean and clean, and between the animal that may be eaten and the animal that ought not to be eaten.’”
12 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say, ‘When a woman has brought forth seed, and borne a male child, she shall be unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean when she is isolated for her disease.
3 ‘And on the eighth day, the foreskin of the flesh shall be circumcised.
4 ‘And she shall continue for 33 days in the blood of her purifying. She shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the Sanctuary, until the time of her purifying is complete.
5 ‘But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean for two weeks (as when she has her menstruation). And she shall continue in the blood of her purifying for 36 days.
6 ‘Now when the days of her purifying are completed (whether it be for a son or for a daughter) she shall bring a lamb of one year old to the Priest for a Burnt Offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a Sin Offering, to the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation,
7 ‘who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her. So shall she be purged of the issue of her blood. This is the law for she who has borne a male or female.
8 ‘But if she is not able to bring a lamb, she shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, the one for a Burnt Offering and the other for a Sin Offering. And the Priest shall make an atonement for her. So shall she be clean.’”
21 And when Jesus had come over again by ship to the other side, a great multitude gathered together to Him. And He was near the sea.
22 And behold, there came one of the rulers of the synagogue whose name was Jairus. And when he saw Him, he fell down at His feet,
23 and urgently begged Him, saying, “My little daughter lies at point of death! I beg You to come and lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed and live!”
24 Then Jesus went with him. And a great multitude followed Him.
25 And there was a certain woman who had been diseased with an issue of blood for twelve years.
26 And she had seen many physicians and had spent all that she had. And it had availed her nothing. But rather she had become much worse.
27 When she had heard of Jesus, she joined the following crowd and touched His garment.
28 For she said, “If I may but touch His clothes, I shall be whole.”
29 And instantly, the course of her blood was dried up and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
30 And immediately, when Jesus knew in Himself the power that went out of Him, He turned and looked at the crowd, and said, “Who has touched My clothes?
31 And His disciples said to Him, “You Yourself see the crowd, and say, ‘Who touched Me?’”
32 And He looked around and saw her who had done it.
33 And the woman feared and trembled. For she knew what had been done in her. And she came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.
34 And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you whole. Go in peace and be whole of your plague.”
35 While He was still speaking, there came from that same ruler of the synagogue’s house certain ones who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Master any further?”
36 As soon as Jesus heard that word spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not be afraid. Only believe.”
37 And He allowed no one to follow Him except Peter, James and John (the brother of James).
38 So He came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue and saw the tumult and those who wept and wailed greatly.
39 And He went in, and said to them, “Why do you make this trouble, and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeps.”
40 And they ridiculed Him. But He put them all out and took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with him and entered in where the child lay.
41 And He took the child by the hand, and said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which is by interpretation, “Maiden, I say to you, arise.”
42 And immediately the maiden arose and walked (for she was twelve years old). And they were most greatly astonished.
43 And He strictly charged them that no one should know of it. And commanded to give her food.
38 O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger, nor chastise me in Your wrath.
2 For Your arrows have pierced me deeply; and Your hand lies upon me.
3 Because of Your anger, there is nothing sound in my flesh; nor is there rest in my bones because of my sin.
4 For my iniquities have gone over my head; as a weighty burden, they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds are putrefied, and corrupt, because of my foolishness.
6 I am bowed, and very troubled. I go mourning all day long.
7 For my core is full of burning; and there is nothing sound in my flesh.
8 I am weakened and very broken: I roar for the very grief of my heart.
9 LORD, I pour my whole desire before You; and my sighing is not hidden from You.
10 My heart pants. My strength fails me, and the light of my eyes. Even they are not my own.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aside from my plague; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
12 Also, those who seek after my life lay snares; and those who go about to do me evil talk wicked things and imagine deceit continually.
13 But I, as a deaf man, did not hear. I am as a dumb man who does not open his mouth.
14 Thus I am as a man who does not hear, and in whose mouth are no rebukes.
15 For on You, O LORD, I wait. You will hear, my LORD. My God.
16 For I said, “Hear me, lest they rejoice over me. When my foot slips, they extol themselves against me.”
17 Surely, I am ready to halt; and my sorrow is ever before me.
18 When I declare my pain, and am sorry for my sin,
19 then my enemies are alive and are mighty; and those who hate me wrongfully are many.
20 Also, those who reward evil for good are my adversaries, because I follow goodness.
21 Do not forsake me, O LORD. Do not be far from me, my God.
22 Hasten to help me, O my LORD. My Salvation. To the excellent musician, Jeduthun: A Psalm of David.
8 The wise in heart will receive commandments. But the foolish talkers shall be beaten.
9 He who walks uprightly, walks boldly. But he who perverts his ways, shall be known.
