Version
Joshua 13-14

13 Now when Joshua was old, and stricken in years, the LORD said to him, “You are old and grown in age, and there remains exceedingly much land to be possessed.

“This is the land that remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,

“from Nilus (which is in Egypt) to the borders of Ekron, northward. This is counted as the Canaanites’: five Lordships of the Philistines, the Gazites, the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, the Ekronites, and the Avites;

“from the South: all the land of the Canaanites, and the cave that is beside the Sidonians, to Aphek and to the borders of the Amorites,

“and the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon toward the Sun, rising from Baal Gad, under Mount Hermon, until one comes to Hamath.

“All the inhabitants of the mountains from Lebanon to Misrephoth, all the Sidonians, I will cast them out from before the children of Israel. Only divide it by lot to the Israelites, to inherit, as I have Commanded you.

“Now, therefore, divide this land to inherit to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe of Manasseh.”

With it, the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave them beyond Jordan, eastward, as Moses the servant of the LORD had given them,

from Aroer that is on the bank of the river Arnon, and from the city that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain of Medeba, to Dibon,

10 and all the cities of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the borders of the children of Ammon,

11 and Gilead, and the borders of the Geshurites and of the Maachathites, and all Mount Hermon, with all Bashan, to Salcah,

12 all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (who remained from the rest of the giants). For these Moses struck, and cast them out.

13 But the children of Israel did not expel the Geshurites or the Maachathites. But the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites even to this day.

14 Only to the tribe of Levi did He give no inheritance. The Sacrifices of the Lord GOD of Israel are his inheritance, as He said to him.

15 Moses then gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben an inheritance, according to their families.

16 And their territory was from Aroer that is on the bank of the river Arnon, and from the city that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain which is by Medeba:

17 Heshbon, with all its cities that are in the plain, Dibon and Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,

18 Jahaza, Kedemoth, Mephaath,

19 Kirjathaim also, Sibmah, and Zereth Shahar, on the Mount of Emek,

20 Beth Peor, Ashdoth Pisgah, Beth Jeshimoth,

21 and all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the princes of Midian, Evi and Rekem, Zur, Hur, Reba, and the dukes of Sihon, dwelling in the country.

22 And Balaam, the son of Beor the soothsayer, the children of Israel killed with the sword, among those who were killed.

23 And the territory of the children of Reuben was Jordan, with the borders. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben, according to their families, with the cities and their villages.

24 Also, Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad, according to their families.

25 And their territories were Jazer and all the cities of Gilead and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer, which is before Rabbah;

26 and from Heshbon to Ramath, Mizpah; and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the borders of Debir,

27 and in the valley of Beth Haram, and Beth Nimrah, Succoth, Zaphon, and the rest of the kingdom of Sihon, king of Heshbon, to Jordan and the borders to the territory of Chinnereth, beyond Jordan, eastward.

28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad, after their families, with the cities and their villages.

29 Also, Moses gave an inheritance to the half tribe of Manasseh. And this belonged to the half tribe of the children of Manasseh, according to their families.

30 And their border was from Mahanaim (all Bashan, or, all the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan) and all the towns of Jair which are in Bashan, (sixty cities).

31 And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were given to the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, to half of the children of Machir, after their families.

32 These are the heritages which Moses distributed on the plain of Moab, beyond Jordan, toward Jericho, eastward.

33 But to the tribe of Levi, Moses gave no inheritance. The Lord GOD of Israel is their inheritance, as He said to them.

14 These are also the places which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the Priest and Joshua the son of Nun and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel distributed to them,

by the lot of their inheritance, as the LORD had Commanded by the hand of Moses, to give to the nine tribes, and the half tribe.

For Moses had given inheritance to two tribes and a half tribe, beyond Jordan. But to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.

For the children of Joseph were two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim. Therefore, they gave no part to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, with the suburbs of the same for their beasts and their substance.

As the LORD had Commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did when they divided the land.

Then the children of Judah came to Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, “You know what the LORD said to Moses, the man of God, concerning you and me in Kadesh Barnea.

“I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the LORD, sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. And I brought him word back from my heart.

“But my brethren who went up with me discouraged the heart of the people. Yet, I still followed the LORD my God.

“Therefore, Moses swore the same day, saying, ‘Certainly the land on which your feet have walked shall be your inheritance, and your children’s, forever, because you have followed constantly the LORD my God.’

10 “Therefore, behold now, the LORD has kept me alive, as He promised. This is the forty-fifth year since the LORD spoke this thing to Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. And now, lo, I am, this day, eighty-five years old.

11 “And I am just as strong at this time as I was when Moses sent me. As strong as I was then, so strong am I now, for war or for government.

12 “Now, therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke on that day (for you heard on that day how Anakim were there, and the cities great and walled) if so be that the LORD will be with me, so that I may drive them out, as the LORD said.”

13 Then Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, for an inheritance.

14 Hebron, therefore, became the inheritance of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, until this day, because he followed constantly the LORD God of Israel.

15 And the name of Hebron was formerly, Kirjath Arba (Arba being a great man among the Anakim). Thus, the land ceased from war.

Luke 18:1-17

18 And He also spoke a parable to them showing that they ought always to pray and not grow weary,

He said, “There was a judge in a certain city who neither feared God nor respected man.

“And there was a widow in that city who came to him saying, ‘Do me justice against my adversary.’

“And he would not do so for some time. But then, he said to himself, ‘I neither fear God nor respect man.

‘Yet because this widow troubles me I will do her right, lest she keeps coming and makes me weary.’”

And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says.

“Now, shall not God avenge His Elect, who cry day and night to Him, even though He bears with them a long time?

“I tell you, He will avenge them quickly! But, when the Son of Man comes, shall He find faith on the Earth?”

He also spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves (that they were just) and despised others.

10 “Two men went up into the Temple to pray - the one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

11 “The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: ‘O God, I thank You that I am not as other men - extortioners, unjust, adulterers - or even as this tax collector.

12 ‘I fast twice a week. I give tithe of all that ever I possess.’

13 “But the tax collector, standing at a distance, would not lift up so much as his eyes to Heaven. But he struck his breast, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.’

14 “I tell you, this man departed to his house more justified than the other. For everyone who exalts himself shall be brought low. And the one who humbles himself shall be exalted.”

15 They also brought little children to Him, so that He could touch them. And when His disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

16 But Jesus called them to Him, and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them. For of such is the Kingdom of God.

17 “Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child, shall not enter therein.”

Psalm 85

85 LORD, You have been favorable to Your land. You have brought back the captives of Jacob.

You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people and covered all their sins. Selah.

You have withdrawn all Your anger and have turned back from the fierceness of Your wrath.

Turn us, O God of Our Salvation, and release Your anger toward us.

Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your wrath from one generation to another?

Will You not turn again and quicken us, so that Your people may rejoice in You?

Show us Your mercy, O LORD, and grant us Your salvation.

I will listen to what the LORD God will say. For He will speak peace to His people, and to His saints, so that they do not turn again to folly.

Surely, His salvation is near to those who fear Him, so that glory may dwell in our land.

10 Mercy and truth shall meet, righteousness and peace shall kiss.

11 Truth shall bud out of the Earth and righteousness shall look down from Heaven.

12 Indeed, the LORD shall give good things and our land shall give her increase.

13 Righteousness shall go before Him and shall set her steps in the way. A prayer of David

Proverbs 13:7-8

There is one who makes himself rich, and has nothing; who makes himself poor, having great riches.

A man will give his riches for the ransom of his life. But the poor cannot hear the reproach.
