04:010:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:010:002 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps. 04:010:003 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 04:010:004 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee. 04:010:005 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward. 04:010:006 When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys. 04:010:007 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. 04:010:008 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations. 04:010:009 And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies. 04:010:010 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God. 04:010:011 And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year, that the cloud was taken up from off the tabernacle of the testimony. 04:010:012 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran. 04:010:013 And they first took their journey according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses. 04:010:014 In the first place went the standard of the camp of the children of Judah according to their armies: and over his host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 04:010:015 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel the son of Zuar. 04:010:016 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon. 04:010:017 And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle. 04:010:018 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur. 04:010:019 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. 04:010:020 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel. 04:010:021 And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the other did set up the tabernacle against they came. 04:010:022 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward according to their armies: and over his host was Elishama the son of Ammihud. 04:010:023 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. 04:010:024 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni. 04:010:025 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set forward, which was the rereward of all the camps throughout their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai. 04:010:026 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran. 04:010:027 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan. 04:010:028 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when they set forward. 04:010:029 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses' father in law, We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel. 04:010:030 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred. 04:010:031 And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes. 04:010:032 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what goodness the LORD shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee. 04:010:033 And they departed from the mount of the LORD three days' journey: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them in the three days' journey, to search out a resting place for them. 04:010:034 And the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day, when they went out of the camp. 04:010:035 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee. 04:010:036 And when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the many thousands of Israel. 04:011:001 And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp. 04:011:002 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched. 04:011:003 And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them. 04:011:004 And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat? 04:011:005 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick: 04:011:006 But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes. 04:011:007 And the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of bdellium. 04:011:008 And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil. 04:011:009 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it. 04:011:010 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased. 04:011:011 And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? 04:011:012 Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? 04:011:013 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. 04:011:014 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me. 04:011:015 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness. 04:011:016 And the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee. 04:011:017 And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone. 04:011:018 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat. 04:011:019 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days; 04:011:020 But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt? 04:011:021 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month. 04:011:022 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them? 04:011:023 And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD's hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not. 04:011:024 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle. 04:011:025 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease. 04:011:026 But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp. 04:011:027 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. 04:011:028 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. 04:011:029 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD's people were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them! 04:011:030 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel. 04:011:031 And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth. 04:011:032 And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp. 04:011:033 And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague. 04:011:034 And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted. 04:011:035 And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth. 04:012:001 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman. 04:012:002 And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses? hath he not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard it. 04:012:003 (Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth.) 04:012:004 And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tabernacle of the congregation. And they three came out. 04:012:005 And the LORD came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam: and they both came forth. 04:012:006 And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream. 04:012:007 My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house. 04:012:008 With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses? 04:012:009 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed. 04:012:010 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, Miriam became leprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous. 04:012:011 And Aaron said unto Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay not the sin upon us, wherein we have done foolishly, and wherein we have sinned. 04:012:012 Let her not be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb. 04:012:013 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee. 04:012:014 And the LORD said unto Moses, If her father had but spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven days? let her be shut out from the camp seven days, and after that let her be received in again. 04:012:015 And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again. 04:012:016 And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran. 04:013:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:013:002 Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them. 04:013:003 And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel. 04:013:004 And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur. 04:013:005 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. 04:013:006 Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. 04:013:007 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. 04:013:008 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun. 04:013:009 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. 04:013:010 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. 04:013:011 Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi. 04:013:012 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. 04:013:013 Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. 04:013:014 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. 04:013:015 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. 04:013:016 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua. 04:013:017 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain: 04:013:018 And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many; 04:013:019 And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds; 04:013:020 And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the firstripe grapes. 04:013:021 So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath. 04:013:022 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.) 04:013:023 And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs. 04:013:024 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence. 04:013:025 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days. 04:013:026 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land. 04:013:027 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it. 04:013:028 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there. 04:013:029 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan. 04:013:030 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. 04:013:031 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we. 04:013:032 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature. 04:013:033 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. 04:014:001 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night. 04:014:002 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness! 04:014:003 And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt? 04:014:004 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt. 04:014:005 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel. 04:014:006 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes: 04:014:007 And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land. 04:014:008 If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey. 04:014:009 Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not. 04:014:010 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel. 04:014:011 And the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them? 04:014:012 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they. 04:014:013 And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;) 04:014:014 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou LORD art among this people, that thou LORD art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night. 04:014:015 Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying, 04:014:016 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in the wilderness. 04:014:017 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying, 04:014:018 The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation. 04:014:019 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now. 04:014:020 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word: 04:014:021 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD. 04:014:022 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice; 04:014:023 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it: 04:014:024 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it. 04:014:025 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea. 04:014:026 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, 04:014:027 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me. 04:014:028 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: 04:014:029 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me. 04:014:030 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. 04:014:031 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised. 04:014:032 But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. 04:014:033 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness. 04:014:034 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise. 04:014:035 I the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die. 04:014:036 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land, 04:014:037 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the LORD. 04:014:038 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still. 04:014:039 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly. 04:014:040 And they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which the LORD hath promised: for we have sinned. 04:014:041 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper. 04:014:042 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies. 04:014:043 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the LORD, therefore the LORD will not be with you. 04:014:044 But they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp. 04:014:045 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah. 04:015:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:015:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you, 04:015:003 And will make an offering by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet savour unto the LORD, of the herd or of the flock: 04:015:004 Then shall he that offereth his offering unto the LORD bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of oil. 04:015:005 And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shalt thou prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb. 04:015:006 Or for a ram, thou shalt prepare for a meat offering two tenth deals of flour mingled with the third part of an hin of oil. 04:015:007 And for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of an hin of wine, for a sweet savour unto the LORD. 04:015:008 And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings unto the LORD: 04:015:009 Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil. 04:015:010 And thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. 04:015:011 Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for a lamb, or a kid. 04:015:012 According to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do to every one according to their number. 04:015:013 All that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. 04:015:014 And if a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever be among you in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do. 04:015:015 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD. 04:015:016 One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you. 04:015:017 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:015:018 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land whither I bring you, 04:015:019 Then it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, ye shall offer up an heave offering unto the LORD. 04:015:020 Ye shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for an heave offering: as ye do the heave offering of the threshingfloor, so shall ye heave it. 04:015:021 Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an heave offering in your generations. 04:015:022 And if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses, 04:015:023 Even all that the LORD hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the LORD commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations; 04:015:024 Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour unto the LORD, with his meat offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the goats for a sin offering. 04:015:025 And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them; for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD, for their ignorance: 04:015:026 And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them; seeing all the people were in ignorance. 04:015:027 And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first year for a sin offering. 04:015:028 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sinneth ignorantly, when he sinneth by ignorance before the LORD, to make an atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him. 04:015:029 Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them. 04:015:030 But the soul that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproacheth the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people. 04:015:031 Because he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be upon him. 04:015:032 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. 04:015:033 And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation. 04:015:034 And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him. 04:015:035 And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. 04:015:036 And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses. 04:015:037 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:015:038 Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue: 04:015:039 And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring: 04:015:040 That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God. 04:015:041 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God. 04:016:001 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men: 04:016:002 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown: 04:016:003 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD? 04:016:004 And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face: 04:016:005 And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him. 04:016:006 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company; 04:016:007 And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi. 04:016:008 And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi: 04:016:009 Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them? 04:016:010 And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also? 04:016:011 For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him? 04:016:012 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up: 04:016:013 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us? 04:016:014 Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up. 04:016:015 And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them. 04:016:016 And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow: 04:016:017 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer. 04:016:018 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron. 04:016:019 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation. 04:016:020 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, 04:016:021 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment. 04:016:022 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation? 04:016:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:016:024 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. 04:016:025 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him. 04:016:026 And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of their's, lest ye be consumed in all their sins. 04:016:027 So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children. 04:016:028 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind. 04:016:029 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD hath not sent me. 04:016:030 But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. 04:016:031 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them: 04:016:032 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods. 04:016:033 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. 04:016:034 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also. 04:016:035 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense. 04:016:036 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:016:037 Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed. 04:016:038 The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel. 04:016:039 And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar: 04:016:040 To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses. 04:016:041 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD. 04:016:042 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared. 04:016:043 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation. 04:016:044 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:016:045 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces. 04:016:046 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun. 04:016:047 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people. 04:016:048 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed. 04:016:049 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah. 04:016:050 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed. 04:017:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:017:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods: write thou every man's name upon his rod. 04:017:003 And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers. 04:017:004 And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you. 04:017:005 And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you. 04:017:006 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, according to their fathers' houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods. 04:017:007 And Moses laid up the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle of witness. 04:017:008 And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds. 04:017:009 And Moses brought out all the rods from before the LORD unto all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod. 04:017:010 And the LORD said unto Moses, Bring Aaron's rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not. 04:017:011 And Moses did so: as the LORD commanded him, so did he. 04:017:012 And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish. 04:017:013 Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the LORD shall die: shall we be consumed with dying? 04:018:001 And the LORD said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood. 04:018:002 And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring thou with thee, that they may be joined unto thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee shall minister before the tabernacle of witness. 04:018:003 And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor ye also, die. 04:018:004 And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you. 04:018:005 And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar: that there be no wrath any more upon the children of Israel. 04:018:006 And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the LORD, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation. 04:018:007 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's office for everything of the altar, and within the vail; and ye shall serve: I have given your priest's office unto you as a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death. 04:018:008 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge of mine heave offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel; unto thee have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to thy sons, by an ordinance for ever. 04:018:009 This shall be thine of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every oblation of their's, every meat offering of their's, and every sin offering of their's, and every trespass offering of their's which they shall render unto me, shall be most holy for thee and for thy sons. 04:018:010 In the most holy place shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat it: it shall be holy unto thee. 04:018:011 And this is thine; the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of the children of Israel: I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: every one that is clean in thy house shall eat of it. 04:018:012 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of the wheat, the firstfruits of them which they shall offer unto the LORD, them have I given thee. 04:018:013 And whatsoever is first ripe in the land, which they shall bring unto the LORD, shall be thine; every one that is clean in thine house shall eat of it. 04:018:014 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine. 04:018:015 Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they bring unto the LORD, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be thine: nevertheless the firstborn of man shalt thou surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt thou redeem. 04:018:016 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou redeem, according to thine estimation, for the money of five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs. 04:018:017 But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem; they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet savour unto the LORD. 04:018:018 And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are thine. 04:018:019 All the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer unto the LORD, have I given thee, and thy sons and thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the LORD unto thee and to thy seed with thee. 04:018:020 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel. 04:018:021 And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation. 04:018:022 Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die. 04:018:023 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance. 04:018:024 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering unto the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance. 04:018:025 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:018:026 Thus speak unto the Levites, and say unto them, When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the LORD, even a tenth part of the tithe. 04:018:027 And this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you, as though it were the corn of the threshingfloor, and as the fulness of the winepress. 04:018:028 Thus ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the LORD of all your tithes, which ye receive of the children of Israel; and ye shall give thereof the LORD's heave offering to Aaron the priest. 04:018:029 Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering of the LORD, of all the best thereof, even the hallowed part thereof out of it. 04:018:030 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, When ye have heaved the best thereof from it, then it shall be counted unto the Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor, and as the increase of the winepress. 04:018:031 And ye shall eat it in every place, ye and your households: for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation. 04:018:032 And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it, when ye have heaved from it the best of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, lest ye die. 04:019:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, 04:019:002 This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke: 04:019:003 And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without the camp, and one shall slay her before his face: 04:019:004 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times: 04:019:005 And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn: 04:019:006 And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer. 04:019:007 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the even. 04:019:008 And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even. 04:019:009 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin. 04:019:010 And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever. 04:019:011 He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days. 04:019:012 He shall purify himself with it on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean: but if he purify not himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean. 04:019:013 Whosoever toucheth the dead body of any man that is dead, and purifieth not himself, defileth the tabernacle of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel: because the water of separation was not sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him. 04:019:014 This is the law, when a man dieth in a tent: all that come into the tent, and all that is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days. 04:019:015 And every open vessel, which hath no covering bound upon it, is unclean. 04:019:016 And whosoever toucheth one that is slain with a sword in the open fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days. 04:019:017 And for an unclean person they shall take of the ashes of the burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water shall be put thereto in a vessel: 04:019:018 And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons that were there, and upon him that touched a bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave: 04:019:019 And the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall purify himself, and wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at even. 04:019:020 But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because he hath defiled the sanctuary of the LORD: the water of separation hath not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean. 04:019:021 And it shall be a perpetual statute unto them, that he that sprinkleth the water of separation shall wash his clothes; and he that toucheth the water of separation shall be unclean until even. 04:019:022 And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean; and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even. 04:020:001 Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there. 04:020:002 And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. 04:020:003 And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD! 04:020:004 And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there? 04:020:005 And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink. 04:020:006 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them. 04:020:007 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 04:020:008 Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink. 04:020:009 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him. 04:020:010 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? 04:020:011 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also. 04:020:012 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them. 04:020:013 This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them. 04:020:014 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us: 04:020:015 How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers: 04:020:016 And when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and hath brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border: 04:020:017 Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king's high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy borders. 04:020:018 And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword. 04:020:019 And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the high way: and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, then I will pay for it: I will only, without doing anything else, go through on my feet. 04:020:020 And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand. 04:020:021 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him. 04:020:022 And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor. 04:020:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying, 04:020:024 Aaron shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah. 04:020:025 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor: 04:020:026 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there. 04:020:027 And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation. 04:020:028 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount. 04:020:029 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel. <div style="break-after:column;"></div>
