14 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “This is the Law of the Leper on the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought to the Priest.
3 “And the Priest shall go out of the camp. And the Priest shall examine him. And if the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper,
4 “then the Priest shall command to take for the one who is cleansed: two sparrows (alive and clean) and cedarwood and a scarlet lace and hyssop.
5 “And the Priest shall command to have one of the birds killed, over pure water, in an earthen vessel.
6 “Afterward, he shall take the live sparrow — with the cedarwood and the scarlet lace and the hyssop — and shall dip them and the living sparrow in the blood of the slain sparrow, over the pure water.
7 “And seven times he shall sprinkle upon him who must be cleansed of his leprosy, and cleanse him. And he shall release the live sparrow into the open field.
8 “Then he who shall be cleansed shall wash his clothes and shave off all his hair and wash himself in water, so he shall be clean. After that, he shall come into the camp, and shall stay outside his tent for seven days.
9 “So, on the seventh day, he shall shave off all his hair, his head and his beard and his eyebrows. All his hair shall be shaved. And he shall wash his clothes and shall wash his flesh in water. So he shall be clean.
10 “Then, on the eighth day, he shall take two male lambs (without blemish) and a ewe lamb of a year old (without blemish) and three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour, mingled with oil (for a Meat Offering) and a pint of oil.
11 “And the Priest who makes him clean shall bring the man who is to be made clean, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
12 “Then the Priest shall take one lamb and offer him for a Trespass Offering, and the pint of oil, and shake them to and fro before the LORD.
13 “And he shall kill the lamb in the place where the Sin Offering and the Burnt Offering are killed: in the Holy Place. For as the Sin Offering is the Priest’s, so is the trespass offering. It is Most Holy.
14 “So, the Priest shall take of the blood of the Trespass Offering and put it upon the lobe of the right ear of him who shall be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
15 “The Priest shall also take from the pint of oil, and pour it into the palm of his left hand.
16 “And the Priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and sprinkle some of the oil with his finger, seven times, before the LORD.
17 “And the Priest shall put the rest of the oil that is in his hand upon the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, as was the blood of the Trespass Offering.
18 “But the Priest shall pour the remaining oil that is in his hand upon the head of him who is to be cleansed. So the Priest shall make an atonement for him before the LORD.
19 “And the Priest shall offer the Burnt Offering and make an atonement for him who is to be cleansed of his uncleanness. Then afterward, he shall kill the Burnt Offering.
20 “So, the Priest shall offer the Burnt Offering and the meat offering upon the Altar. And the Priest shall make an atonement for him. So he shall be clean.
21 “But if he is poor and not able, then he shall bring one lamb for a Trespass Offering (to be shaken) for his reconciliation, and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mingled with oil, for a Meat Offering, with a pint of oil.
22 “Also, he shall bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons (as he is able), one of which shall be a Sin Offering, and the other a Burnt Offering.
23 “And on the eighth day, he shall bring them to the Priest at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, for his cleansing before the LORD.
24 “Then the Priest shall take the lamb of the Trespass Offering, and the pint of oil, and the Priest shall shake them to and fro before the LORD.
25 “And he shall kill the lamb of the Trespass Offering. And the Priest shall take from the blood of the Trespass Offering and put it upon the lobe of his right ear that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
26 “Also, the Priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand.
27 “So, with his right finger, the Priest shall sprinkle some of the oil that is in his left hand, seven times before the LORD.
28 “Then the Priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand upon the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the Trespass Offering.
29 “But the rest of the oil that is in the Priest’s hand, he shall put upon the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for him before the LORD.
30 “Also, he shall present one of the turtledoves, or one of the young pigeons, as he is able.
31 “Such, I say, as he is able (the one for a Sin Offering and the other for a Burnt Offering), with the Meat Offering. So, the Priest shall make an atonement for him who is to be cleansed before the LORD.
32 “This is the Law of him who has the plague of leprosy; who is not able, in his cleansing, to offer the whole.”
33 The LORD also spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
34 “When you have come to the land of Canaan (which I give you in possession), if I send the plague of leprosy to a house in the land of your possession,
35 “then he who owns the house shall come and tell the Priest, saying, ‘I think there is some plague in the house.’
36 “Then the Priest shall command them to empty the house before the Priest goes into it, to see the plague, so that all that is in the house is not made unclean. And then shall the Priest go in to see the house.
37 “And he shall examine the plague, to see if the plague is in the walls of the house, and if there are deep spots, greenish or reddish, which seem to be lower than the wall.
38 “Then the Priest shall go out of the house, to the door of the house, and shall quarantine the house for seven days.
39 “So, the Priest shall come again on the seventh day. And if he sees that the plague has increased in the walls of the house,
40 “then the Priest shall command them to take away the stones in which the plague is. And they shall cast them into a foul place outside the city.
41 “Also, he shall have the house scraped inside, all around. And the dust that they have scraped off shall be poured outside the city in an unclean place.
42 “And they shall take other stones and put them in the places of those stones. And they shall take other mortar with which to plaster the house.
43 “But if the plague comes again and breaks out in the house, after he has taken away the stones, and after he has scraped and plastered the house,
44 “then the Priest shall come and see. And if the plague grows in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house. It is unclean.
45 “And he shall tear down the house, with the stones of it, and its timber, and all the mortar of the house; and he shall carry them out of the city to an unclean place.
46 “Moreover, he who goes into the house while it is quarantined, he shall be unclean until the evening.
47 “He, also, who sleeps in the house shall wash his clothes. He, likewise, who eats in the house shall wash his clothes.
48 “But if the Priest shall come and see that the plague has spread no further in the house, after the house is plastered, the Priest shall pronounce the house clean. For the plague is healed.
49 “Then he shall take two sparrows, cedarwood, scarlet and hyssop, to purify the house.
50 “And he shall kill one sparrow, over pure water, in an earthen vessel.
51 “And he shall take the cedarwood and the hyssop and the scarlet with the live sparrow and dip them in the blood of the slain Sparrow, and in the pure water, and sprinkle the house seven times.
52 “So shall he cleanse the house with the blood of the sparrow, and with the pure water, and with the live sparrow, and with the cedarwood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet.
53 “Afterward, he shall release the live sparrow out of the town into the broad fields. So shall he make atonement for the house. And it shall be clean.
54 “This is the Law for every plague of leprosy and black spot,
55 “and of the leprosy of the garment, and of the house,
56 “and of the swelling, and of the scab, and of the white spot.
57 “This is the Law of the Leprosy, to teach when a thing is unclean and when it is clean.”
30 And the Apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.
31 And He said to them, “Come away into the wilderness, and rest a while.” For there were many comers and goers, that they had not had a chance to eat.
32 So they went by ship out of the way into a desert place.
33 But the people saw them when they departed and many knew Him and ran after them, out of all cities, and got to the desert place before them.
34 Then Jesus went out and saw a great multitude and had compassion on them, because they were like sheep which had no shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.
35 And when the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him, saying, “This is a desert place and now the day is old.
36 “Let them depart, so that they may go into the country and towns nearby and buy bread. For they have nothing to eat.”
37 But He answered, and said to them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said to Him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred pennies worth of bread and give them that to eat?”
38 Then He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and look.” And when they had found out, they said, “Five, and two fishes.”
39 So He commanded them to make them all sit down by groups upon the green grass.
40 Then they sat down by rows, by hundreds and by fifties.
41 And He took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looked up to Heaven and gave thanks and broke the loaves and gave them to His disciples to set before them. And He divided the two fishes among them all.
42 So they all ate and were satisfied.
43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments and of the fishes.
44 And those who had eaten were about five thousand men.
45 And immediately He had His disciples get into the ship and go before Him to the other side, to Bethsaida. While He sent away the people.
46 Then as soon as He had sent them away, He departed into a mountain to pray.
47 And when evening came, the ship was in the midst of the sea and He was alone on the land.
48 And He saw them troubled in rowing (for the wind was against them). And about the fourth watch of the night, He came to them, walking upon the sea; and would have passed by them.
49 And when they saw Him walking upon the sea, they thought it was a spirit and cried out.
50 For they all saw Him and were very afraid. But He talked with them and said to them, “Be of good comfort! It is I! Do not be afraid!”
51 Then He went up to them into the ship. And the wind ceased. And they were much more amazed and marveled.
52 For they had not understood the matter of the loaves, because their hearts were hardened.
53 And they came over and went into the land of Gennesaret, and arrived.
54 So when they had come out of the ship, immediately everyone knew it,
55 and ran around throughout all that region, carrying all who were sick to Him in couches, wherever they heard that He was.
56 And wherever He entered into towns or cities or villages, they laid their sick in the streets and asked Him if they might at least touch the edge of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made whole.
40 I waited patiently for the LORD, and He inclined to me and heard my cry.
2 Also, He brought me out of the horrible pit—out of the miry clay—and set my feet upon the rock and ordered my goings.
3 And He has put in my mouth a new song of praise to our God. Many shall see it and fear and shall trust in the LORD.
4 Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust and does not regard the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 You have made many, O LORD my God, Your wonderful works; so that no one can count to You, in order, Your thoughts toward us. I would declare and speak of them, but they are more than I am able to express.
6 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire (my ears You have prepared). Burnt offering and sin offering You have not required.
7 Then I said, “Lo, I come. In the roll of the Book it is written of me.
8 “I desired to do Your good will, O my God. Indeed, Your Law is within my heart.”
9 I have declared righteousness in the great congregation. Lo, I will not refrain my lips. O LORD, You know.
10 I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart. I have declared Your truth and Your salvation. I have not concealed Your mercy and Your truth from the great Congregation.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a wellspring of life. But iniquity covers the mouth of the wicked.
12 Hatred stirs up contentions. But love covers all trespasses.
