5:1	And afterward Moses and Aaron came and said to Pharaoh, “ThusThis saysis what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Let My people go so that they may celebrate a feast to Me in the wilderness.’ ”
5:3	Then they said, “The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please, let us go a three days’ journey into the wilderness so that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God, otherwise He will fallstrike upon us with pestilenceplague or with the sword.”
5:4	But the king of Egypt said to them, “Moses and Aaron, why do you drawlet the people awayneglect from their work? Get back to your labors!”
5:7	“You are no longer to give the people straw to make brickbricks as previously; lethave them go and gather straw for themselves.
5:8	But you shall impose on them the quota of bricks which they were making previously, you shall impose on thembefore; you are not to reduce any of it. Because they are lazy, thereforefor that reason they cry out, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’
5:9	Let the labor be heavier on the men, and lethave them work at it so that they will pay no attention to false words.”
5:10	So the taskmasters of the people and their foremen went out and spoke to the people, saying, “ThusThis saysis what Pharaoh, says: ‘I am not going to give you any straw.
5:11	You go, and get straw for yourselves wherever you can find it,; but none of your labor will be reduced.’ ”
5:13	TheAnd the taskmasters pressed them, saying, “Complete your work quota, your daily amount, just as when you had straw.”
5:14	Moreover, the foremen of the sons of Israel, whom Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten and were asked, “Why have you not completed your required amounttask of making bricks either yesterday or today, in making brick as previouslybefore?”
5:17	But he said, “You are lazy, very lazy; thereforefor that reason you say, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.’
5:18	So go now and work; for you will be given no straw, yetbut you must deliver the quota of bricks.”
5:19	The foremen of the sons of Israel saw that they were in trouble, becausesince they were told, “You must not reduce your daily amount of bricks.”
5:21	TheyAnd they said to them, “May the Lord look upon you and judge you, forbecause you have made us odiousrepulsive in Pharaoh’s sight and in the sight of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us.”!”
5:22	Then Moses returned to the Lord and said, “O Lord, why have You brought harm to this people? Why did You ever send me?
5:23	Ever since I came to Pharaoh to speak in Your name, he has done harm to this people, and You have not deliveredrescued Your people at all.”
6:3	and I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as God Almighty, but by My name, Lord, I did not make Myself known to them.
6:4	I also established My covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land in which they sojournedlived as strangers.
6:6	Say, therefore, to the sons of Israel, ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdenslabors of the Egyptians, and I will deliverrescue you from their bondage. I will also redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments.
6:7	Then I will take you foras My people, and I will be your God; and you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the burdenslabors of the Egyptians.
6:8	I will bring you to the land which I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and I will give it to you foras a possession; I am the Lord.’ ”
6:9	So Moses spokesaid thusthis to the sons of Israel, but they did not listen to Moses on account of their despondency and cruel bondage.
6:12	But Moses spoke before the Lord, saying, “Behold, the sons of Israel have not listened to me; how then will Pharaoh listen to me, foras I am unskilled in speech?”
6:13	ThenNevertheless, the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, and gave them a chargecommand toconcerning the sons of Israel and to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
6:15	TheAnd the sons of Simeon: Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman; these are the families of Simeon.
6:16	TheseAnd these are the names of the sons of Levi according to their generations: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari; and the length of Levi’s life was one137 hundred and thirty-seven years.
6:18	TheAnd the sons of Kohath: Amram, and Izhar, and Hebron, and Uzziel; and the length of Kohath’s life was one133 hundred and thirty-three years.
6:19	TheAnd the sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites according to their generations.
6:20	Now Amram married his father’s sister Jochebed, and she bore him Aaron and Moses; and the length of Amram’s life was one137 hundred and thirty-seven years.
6:21	TheAnd the sons of Izhar: Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri.
6:22	TheAnd the sons of Uzziel: Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Sithri.
6:24	TheAnd the sons of Korah: Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph; these are the families of the Korahites.
6:25	Now Aaron’s son Eleazar married one of the daughters of Putiel, and she bore him Phinehas. These are the heads of the fathers’ households of the Levites according to their families.
6:26	It was the same Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said, “Bring out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their hostsmultitudes.”
6:29	that the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “I am the Lord; speaksay to Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I speaksay to you.”
7:1	Then the Lord said to Moses, “See, I makehave made you as God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron shall be your prophet.
7:2	YouAs for you, you shall speak all that I command you, and your brother Aaron shall speak to Pharaoh that he let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
7:3	But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, so that I may multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.
7:4	When Pharaoh does not listen to you, then I will lay My hand on Egypt and bring out My hostsarmies, My people the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt by great judgments.
7:5	TheThen the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretchextend out My hand onover Egypt and bring out the sons of Israel from their midst.”
7:6	So Moses and Aaron did itthis; as the Lord commanded them, thusso they did.
7:7	And Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
7:9	“When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Work a miracle,’ then you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh, so that it may becometurn into a serpent.’ ”
7:10	So Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and thusso they did, just as the Lord had commanded; and Aaron threw his staff down before Pharaoh and his servants, and it becameturned into a serpent.
7:11	Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers, and they alsotoo, the magicianssoothsayer priests of Egypt, did the same with their secret arts.
7:12	For each one threw down his staff, and they turned into serpents. But Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staffs.
7:13	Yet Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.
7:15	Go to Pharaoh in the morning just as he is going out to the water, and stationposition yourself to meet him on the bank of the Nile; and you shall take in your hand the staff that was turned into a serpent.
7:16	YouAnd you shall say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, sent me to you, saying, “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me in the wilderness. But behold, you have not listened untilup to now.”
7:17	ThusThis saysis what the Lord, says: “By this you shall know that I am the Lord: behold, I willam going to strike the water that is in the Nile with the staff that is in my hand, and it will be turned tointo blood.
7:18	TheThen the fish that are in the Nile will die, and the Nile will become foulstink, and the Egyptians will findno difficultylonger inbe drinkingable to drink water from the Nile.” ’ ”
7:19	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretchextend out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their reservoirs of water, so that they may become blood; and there will be blood throughoutthrough all the land of Egypt, both in vesselscontainers of wood and in vesselscontainers of stone.’ ”
7:20	So Moses and Aaron did evenjust as the Lord had commanded. And he lifted up the staff and struck the water that was in the Nile, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants,; and all the water that was in the Nile was turned tointo blood.
7:21	TheThen the fish that were in the Nile died, and the Nile became foulstank, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile. And the blood was through all the land of Egypt.
7:22	But the magicianssoothsayer priests of Egypt did the same with their secret arts; and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.
7:24	So all the Egyptians dug around the Nile for water to drink, forbecause they could not drink offrom the water of the Nile.
8:1	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘ThusThis saysis what the Lord, says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.
8:2	But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I willam smitegoing to strike your wholeentire territory with frogs.
8:3	The Nile will swarm with frogs, which will come up and go into your house, and into your bedroom and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens and into your kneading bowls.
8:4	So the frogs will come up on you, and your people, and on all your servants.” ’ ”
8:5	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘StretchExtend out your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and make frogs come up on the land of Egypt.’ ”
8:6	So Aaron stretchedextended out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
8:7	TheHowever, magiciansthe soothsayer priests did the same with their secret arts, making frogs come up on the land of Egypt.
8:8	Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, “EntreatPlead with the Lord thatto He remove the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, so that they may sacrifice to the Lord.”
8:9	And Moses said to Pharaoh, “The honor is yours to tell me: when shall I entreatplead for you and your servants and your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, that they may be left only in the Nile?”
8:10	Then he said, “Tomorrow.” So he said, “May it be according to your word, so that you may know that there is no one like the Lord our God.
8:11	The frogs will depart from you and your houses, and from your servants and your people; they will be left only in the Nile.”
8:12	Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried out to the Lord concerning the frogs which He had inflicted upon Pharaoh.
8:13	The Lord did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, the courtscourtyards, and the fields.
8:14	So they piled them in heaps, and the land became foulstank.
8:15	But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.
8:16	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘StretchExtend out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, so that it may becometurn into gnats through all the land of Egypt.’ ”
8:17	They did so; and Aaron stretchedextended out his hand with his staff, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were gnats on manevery person and beastanimal. All the dust of the earth becameturned into gnats through all the land of Egypt.
8:18	The magicianssoothsayer priests tried with their secret arts to bringproduce forth gnats, but they could not; so there were gnats on manevery person and beastanimal.
8:19	Then the magicianssoothsayer priests said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.
8:20	NowThen the Lord said to Moses, “Rise early in the morning and present yourself before Pharaoh, as he comes out to the water,; and say to him, ‘ThusThis saysis what the Lord, says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.
8:21	For if you doare not going to let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and on your servants and on your people, and into your houses; and the houses of the Egyptians will be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they dwelllive.
8:24	Then the Lord did so. And therethick came great swarms of flies intoentered the house of Pharaoh and the houses of his servants, and the land was laid waste because of the swarms of flies in all the land of Egypt.
8:25	Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God within the land.”
8:26	But Moses said, “It is not rightpermissible for us to do so, forbecause we will sacrifice to the Lord our God whatthat which is an abomination to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice whatthat which is an abomination to the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not then stone us?
8:27	We must go a three days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God, just as He commands us.”
8:28	Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, so that you may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away. MakePlead supplication for me.”
8:29	Then Moses said, “Behold, I am going outto fromleave you, and I shallwill makeplead supplicationwith to the Lord that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people tomorrow; only do not let Pharaoh deal deceitfully again in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.”
8:30	So Moses wentleft out from Pharaoh and madepleaded supplicationwith to the Lord.
8:31	The Lord did as Moses asked, and removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; not one remained.
9:1	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and speak to him, ‘ThusThis saysis what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.
9:3	behold, the hand of the Lord will come with a very severe pestilenceplague on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks.
9:5	TheAnd the Lord set a definite time, saying, “Tomorrow the Lord will do this thing in the land.”
9:6	So the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt died; but not one of the livestock of the sons of Israel, not one died.
9:7	And Pharaoh sent men, and they learned that, behold, there was not even one of the livestock of Israel was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
9:8	Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of soot from a kiln, and let Moses throwshall toss it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.
9:9	ItThen it will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and will becometurn into boils breaking out with sores on manevery person and beastanimal through all the land of Egypt.”
9:10	So they took soot from a kiln, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses threwtossed it toward the sky, and it became boils breaking out with sores on manevery person and beastanimal.
9:11	The magicianssoothsayer priests could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicianssoothsayer priests as well as on all the Egyptians.
9:12	AndBut the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had spoken to Moses.
9:13	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh and say to him, ‘ThusThis saysis what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.
9:14	For this time I willam going to send all My plagues on you and your servants and your people, so that you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth.
9:15	For ifhad byI now I had put forthout My hand and struck you and your people with pestilenceplague, you would then have been cuteliminated off from the earth.
9:16	But, indeed, for this reason I have allowed you to remain, in order to show you My power and in order to proclaim My name throughthroughout all the earth.
9:19	NowSo thereforenow, send word, bring your livestock and whatever you have in the field to safety. Every manperson and beastanimal that is found in the field and is not brought home, when the hail comes down on them, will die.” ’ ”
9:20	TheEveryone one among the servants of Pharaoh who feared the word of the Lord madehurried to bring his servants and his livestock flee into the houses;
9:21	but heeveryone who paiddid nonot pay regard to the word of the Lord left his servants and his livestock in the field.
9:22	Now the Lord said to Moses, “StretchReach out with your hand toward the sky, so that hail may fall on all the land of Egypt, on manevery person and onanimal, beast and on every plant of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”
9:23	So Moses stretchedreached out with his staff toward the sky, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt.
9:24	So there was hail, and fire flashing continuallyintermittently in the midst of the hail, which was very severeheavy, such as had not beenoccurred in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
9:25	The hail struck alleverything that was in the field through all the land of Egypt, bothfrom manpeople andto beastanimals; the hail also struck every plant of the field, and shattered every tree of the field.
9:26	Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, was there was no hail.
9:28	MakePlead supplicationwith to the Lord, for there has been enough of God’s thunder and hail; and I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.”
9:29	Moses said to him, “As soon as I go out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the Lord; the thunder will cease and there will no longer be hail, noso longer, that you may know that the earth is the Lord’s.
9:33	So Moses wentleft out of the city from his meeting with Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to the Lord; and the thunder and the hail ceasedstopped, and rain no longer poured on the earth.
9:34	But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunder had ceasedstopped, he sinned again and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
9:35	So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not let the sons of Israel go, just as the Lord had spoken through Moses.
10:1	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, so that I may perform these signs of Mine among them,
10:2	and that you may tell in the hearingpresence of your son, and of your grandson, how I made a mockery of the Egyptians and how I performed My signs among them, so that you may know that I am the Lord.”
10:3	So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, “ThusThis saysis what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.
10:5	TheyAnd shallthey will cover the surface of the land, so that no one will be able to see the land. They will also eat the rest of what has escapedsurvived—what is left to you from the hail—and they will eat every tree whichof sproutsyours forwhich yougrows outin of the field.
10:6	Then your houses shallwill be filled andwith them, together with the houses of all your servants and the houses of all the Egyptians, something which neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen, from the day that they came upon the earth until this day.’ ” And he turned and wentleft out from Pharaoh.
10:7	Then Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long willshall this man be a snare to us? Let the menpeople go, so that they may serve the Lord their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt is destroyed?”
10:8	So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve the Lord your God! Who specifically are the ones thatwho are going?”
10:10	Then he said to them, “ThusSo may the Lord be with you, ifwhen ever I let you and your little ones go! TakeWatch heedout, for evil is inon your mind.!
10:11	Not so! Go now, but only the men among you, and serve the Lord, forsince that is what you desire.” So they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
10:12	Then the Lord said to Moses, “StretchReach out with your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, so that they may come up on the land of Egypt and eat every plant of the land, eveneverything all that the hail has left.”
10:13	So Moses stretchedreached out with his staff over the land of Egypt, and the Lord directed an east wind on the land all that day and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
10:15	For they covered the surface of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every plant of the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. ThusTherefore nothing green was left on tree or plant of the field throughthroughout all the land of Egypt.
10:17	NowSo thereforenow, please forgive my sin only this once, and makeplead supplicationwith to the Lord your God, that He would only remove this death from me.”
10:18	HeThen wenthe outleft from Pharaoh and madepleaded supplicationwith to the Lord.
10:19	So the Lord shifted the wind to a very strong west wind, which tookpicked up the locusts and drove them into the Red Sea; not one locust was left in all the territory of Egypt.
10:21	Then the Lord said to Moses, “StretchReach out with your hand toward the sky, so that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even a darkness which may be felt.”
10:22	So Moses stretchedreached out with his hand toward the sky, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
10:24	Then Pharaoh called tofor Moses, and said, “Go, serve the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be detainedleft behind. Even your little ones may go with you.”
10:25	But Moses said, “You must also let us have sacrifices and burnt offerings, so that we may sacrifice them to the Lord our God.
10:28	Then Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! BewareBe careful, do not see my face again, for inon the day you see my face, you shall die!”
10:29	Moses said, “You arehave rightspoken correctly; I shall never see your face again!”
11:1	Now the Lord said to Moses, “One more plague I will bring on Pharaoh and on Egypt; after that he will let you go from here. When he lets you go, he will surelyassuredly drive you out from here completely.
11:2	Speak now inso thethat hearing of the people hear, that each man is to ask fromof his neighbor, and each woman fromof her neighbor, for articles of silver and articles of gold.”
11:3	TheAnd the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Furthermore, the man Moses himself was greatly esteemed in the land of Egypt, both in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants and in the sight of the people.
11:4	Then Moses said, “ThusThis saysis what the Lord, says: ‘About midnight I am going out into the midst of Egypt,
11:5	and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of the Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the millstones; all the firstborn of the cattle as well.
11:6	Moreover,So there shall be a great cry in all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been before and such as shall never be again.
11:7	But againstnot even a dog will threaten any of the sons of Israel, anor doganything willfrom notperson evento barkanimal, whetherso against man or beast, that you may understandlearn how the Lord makesdistinguishes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.’
11:8	AllAnd all these your servants of yours will come down to me and bow themselves before me, saying, ‘Go out, you and all the people who follow you,’ and after that I will go out.” And he wentleft out from Pharaoh in hotthe heat of anger.
11:10	So Moses and Aaron performed all these wonders before Pharaoh; yet the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
12:2	“This month shall be the beginning of months for you; it is to be the first month of the year tofor you.
12:3	Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, ‘On the tenth of this month they are, each one, to take a lamb for themselves, according to theirthe fathers’ households, a lamb for each household.
12:4	Now if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his neighbor nearest to his house are to take one according to the number of persons in them; accordingin proportion to what each manone should eat, you are to divide the lamb.
12:6	You shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month, then the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel is to killslaughter it at twilight.
12:10	And you shall not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of it until morning, you shall completely burn with fire.
12:11	Now you shall eat it in this mannerway: with your loinsgarment girdedbelted around your waist, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in hastea hurry—it is the Lord’s Passover.
12:12	For I will go through the land of Egypt on that night, and willfatally strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, bothfrom manthe andhuman beastfirstborn to animals; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—I am the Lord.
12:13	The blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you live; and when I see the blood I will pass over you, and no plague will befallcome upon you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
12:14	‘Now this day willshall be a memorial to you, and you shall celebrate it as a feast to the Lord; throughout your generations you are to celebrate it as a permanent ordinance.
12:15	SevenFor seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, but on the first day you shall remove leavendough with yeast from your houses; for whoever eats anything leavenedwith yeast from the first day until the seventh day, that person shall be cut off from Israel.
12:16	OnAnd on the first day you shall have a holy assembly, and another holy assembly on the seventh day; no work at all shall be done on them, except for what must be eaten by every person, —that alone may be prepared by you.
12:17	You shall also observekeep the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your hostsmultitudes out of the land of Egypt; therefore you shall observekeep this day throughout your generations as a permanent ordinance.
12:19	SevenFor seven days there shall be no leavendough with yeast found in your houses; for whoever eats whatanything iswith leavenedyeast, that person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is ana alienstranger or a native of the land.
12:20	You shall not eat anything leavenedwith yeast; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.’ ”
12:21	Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and take for yourselves lambs according to your families, and slayslaughter the Passover lamb.
12:22	YouAnd you shall take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and apply some of the blood that is in the basin to the lintel and the two doorposts; and none of you shall go outside the door of his house until morning.
12:23	For the Lord will pass through to smitestrike the Egyptians; andbut when He sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and will not allow the destroyer to come in to your houses to smitestrike you.
12:24	And you shall observekeep this event as an ordinance for you and your children forever.
12:25	When you enter the land which the Lord will give you, as He has promised, you shall observekeep this rite.
12:27	then you shall say, ‘It is a Passover sacrifice to the Lord whobecause He passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt when He smotestruck the Egyptians, but spared our homes.’ ” And the people bowed low and worshiped.
12:30	And Pharaoh arosegot up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians, and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was no home where there was not someone dead.
12:33	The Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in hastea hurry, for they said, “We will all be dead.”
12:36	and the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have their request. ThusTherefore they plundered the Egyptians.
12:39	TheyAnd they baked the dough which they had brought out of Egypt into cakes of unleavened bread. For it had notno become leavenedyeast, since they were driven out of Egypt and could not delay, nor had they prepared any provisions for themselves.
12:40	Now the time that the sons of Israel had lived in Egypt was four430 hundred and thirty years.
12:41	And at the end of four430 hundred and thirty years, toon thethis very day, all the hostsmultitudes of the Lord wentdeparted out from the land of Egypt.
12:42	It is a night to be observed for the Lord, for having brought them out fromof the land of Egypt; this night is for the Lord, to be observed by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.
12:43	TheAnd the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the ordinance of the Passover: no foreigner is to eat of it;
12:44	but as for every man’s slave that someone has purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it.
12:45	A sojournerstranger or a hired servantworker shall not eat of it.
12:46	It is to be eaten in a single house; you are not to bring forth any of the fleshmeat outside of the house, nor are you to break any bone of it.
12:48	But if a stranger sojournsresides with you, and celebrates the Passover to the Lord, let all of his males are to be circumcised, and then lethe himshall come near to celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised personmale may eat of it.
12:49	The same law shall apply to the native as to the stranger who sojournsresides among you.”
12:51	And on that samevery day the Lord brought the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt byaccording to their hostsmultitudes.
13:2	“Sanctify to Me every firstborn, the firstfirstborn offspring of every womb among the sons of Israel, bothamong ofpeople man and beastanimals alike; it belongs to Me.”
13:3	And Moses said to the people, “Remember this day in which you wentdeparted out from Egypt, from the house of slavery; for by a powerful hand the Lord brought you out from this place. And nothing leavenedwith yeast shall be eaten.
13:4	On this day in the month of Abib, you are about to go forthout from here.
13:5	ItAnd it shall be when the Lord brings you to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall observeperform this rite in this month.
13:7	Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and nothing leavenedwith yeast shall be seen among you, nor shall any leavendough with yeast be seen among you in all your borders.
13:8	YouAnd you shall tell your son on that day, saying, ‘It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.’
13:12	you shall devote to the Lord theevery firstfirstborn offspring of everya womb, and theevery firstfirstborn offspring of everyan beastanimal that you own; the males belong to the Lord.
13:13	But every firstfirstborn offspring of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck; and every firstborn of man among your sons you shall redeem.
13:15	ItAnd it came about, when Pharaoh was stubborn about letting us go, that the Lord killedput to death every firstborn in the land of Egypt, bothfrom thehuman firstbornfirstborns ofto mananimal and the firstborn of beastfirstborns. Therefore, I sacrifice to the Lord the males, theevery firstfirstborn offspring of everya womb, but every firstborn of my sons I redeem.’
13:18	HenceTherefore God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea; and the sons of Israel went up in martialbattle arrayformation from the land of Egypt.
13:19	And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had made the sons of Israel solemnly swear, saying, “God will surelycertainly take care of you, and you shall carry my bones from here with you.”
13:20	Then they set out from Succoth and camped in Etham, on the edge of the wilderness.
13:21	TheAnd the Lord was going before them in a pillar of cloud by day to lead them on the way, and in a pillar of fire by night to give them light, so that they might travel by day and by night.
13:22	He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from beforethe presence of the people.
14:2	“Tell the sons of Israel to turn back and camp beforein front of Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea; you shall camp in front of Baal-zephon, opposite it, by the sea.
14:4	ThusAnd I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will chase after them; and I will be honored through Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.
14:5	When the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, Pharaoh and his servants had a change of heart toward the people, and they said, “What is this that we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?”
14:6	So he madehad horses harnessed to his chariot ready and took his people with him;
14:8	TheSo the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he chased after the sons of Israel as the sons of Israel were going out boldly.
14:10	As Pharaoh drew nearapproached, the sons of Israel looked, and behold, the Egyptians were marchingcoming after them, and they became very frightened; so the sons of Israel cried out to the Lord.
14:12	Is this not the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, ‘Leave us alone so that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”!”
14:13	But Moses said to the people, “Do not fear! Stand by and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplishperform for you today; for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again, foreverever.
14:14	The Lord will fight for you, while you keep silent.”
14:16	As for you, lift up your staff and stretchreach out with your hand over the sea and divide it, and the sons of Israel shall go through the midst of the sea on dry land.
14:17	AsAnd as for Me, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them; and I will be honored through Pharaoh and all his army, through his chariots and his horsemen.
14:18	Then the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when I am honored through Pharaoh, through his chariots, and through his horsemen.”
14:19	TheThen the angel of God, who had been going before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them.
14:20	So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud along with the darkness, yet it gave light at night. ThusTherefore the one did not comeapproach near the other all night.
14:21	Then Moses stretchedreached out with his hand over the sea; and the Lord swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and turned the sea into dry land, soand the waters were divided.
14:22	TheSo the sons of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
14:23	Then the Egyptians took up the pursuit, and all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen went in after them into the midst of the sea.
14:24	AtBut at the morning watch, the Lord looked down on the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and brought the army of the Egyptians into confusion.
14:25	He caused their chariot wheels to swerve, and He made them drive with difficulty; so the Egyptians each said, “Let usme flee from Israel, for the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians.”
14:26	Then the Lord said to Moses, “StretchReach out with your hand over the sea so that the waters may come back over the Egyptians, over their chariots and their horsemen.”
14:27	So Moses stretchedreached out with his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its normal state at daybreak, while the Egyptians were fleeing right into it; then the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
14:28	The waters returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even Pharaoh’s entire army that had gone into the sea after them; not even one of them remained.
14:29	But the sons of Israel walked on dry land through the midst of the sea, and the waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
14:30	ThusSo the Lord saved Israel that day from the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
15:1	Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, andsaying: said, “I will sing to the Lord, for He is highly exalted; The horse and its rider He has hurled into the sea.
15:2	The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation; This is my God, and I will praise Him; My father’s God, and I will extolexalt Him.
15:4	Pharaoh’s chariots and his army He has castthrown into the sea; And the choicest of his officers are drowned in the Red Sea.
15:5	The deepswaters cover them; They went down into the depths like a stone.
15:6	Your right hand, O Lord, is majestic in power,; Your right hand, O Lord, shattersdestroys the enemy.
15:7	And in the greatness of Your excellence You overthrow those who rise up against You; You send forthout Your burning anger, and it consumes them aslike chaff.
15:8	At the blast of Your nostrils the waters were piled up, The flowing waters stood up like a heap; The deepsdepths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
15:9	The enemy said, ‘I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoilspoils; MyI desire shall be gratifiedsatisfied against them; I will draw out my sword, my hand will destroy them.’
15:11	Who is like You among the gods, O Lord? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, Awesome in praises, working wonders?
15:12	You stretchedreached out with Your right hand, The earth swallowed them.
15:13	In Your lovingkindnessfaithfulness You have led the people whom You have redeemed; In Your strength You have guided them to Your holy habitation.
15:15	Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayedterrified; The leaders of Moab, trembling grips them; All the inhabitants of Canaan have melted awaydespaired.
15:16	Terror and dread fall upon them; By the greatness of Your arm they are motionless as stone;, Until Your people pass over, O Lord, Until the people pass over whom You have purchased.
15:17	You will bring them and plant them in the mountain of Your inheritance, The place, O Lord, which You have made foras Your dwelling, The sanctuary, O Lord, which Your hands have established.
15:20	Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took the timbreltambourine in her hand, and all the women went out after her with timbrelstambourines and with dancing.
15:21	And Miriam answered them, “Sing to the Lord, for He is highly exalted; The horse and his rider He has hurled into the sea.”
15:23	When they came to Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, forbecause they were bitter; thereforefor that reason it was named Marah.
15:24	So the people grumbled at Moses, saying, “What shallare we to drink?”
15:26	And He said, “If you will givelisten earnestcarefully heed to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in His sight, and givelisten ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I, the Lord, am your healer.”
16:2	TheBut the whole congregation of the sons of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.
16:3	The sons of Israel said to them, “WouldIf thatonly we had died by the Lord’s hand in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the pots of meat, when we ate bread tountil thewe were full; for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this wholeentire assembly with hunger.”!”
16:4	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, so that I may test them, whether or not they will walk in My instruction.
16:8	And Moses said, “This will happen when the Lord gives you meat to eat in the evening, and bread to the full in the morning; for the Lord hears your grumblings which you grumble against Him. And what are we? Your grumblings are not against us but against the Lord.”
16:9	Then Moses said to Aaron, “Say to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, ‘Come nearforward before the Lord, for He has heard your grumblings.’ ”
16:10	ItAnd it came about, as Aaron spoke to the wholeentire congregation of the sons of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud.
16:16	This is what the Lord has commanded,: ‘GatherEveryone ofgather it every man as much as he shouldwill eat; you shall take an omer apiece according to the number of personspeople each of you has in his tent.’ ”
16:18	When they measured it withby anthe omer, hethe one who had gathered much haddid nonot excesshave too much, and hethe one who had gathered little haddid nonot lackhave too little; everyeveryone man gathered as much as he shouldwould eat.
16:19	Moses said to them, “LetNo noone manis to leave any of it until morning.”
16:20	But they did not listen to Moses, and some left part of it until morning, and it bred worms and became foulstank; and Moses was angry with them.
16:21	They gathered it morning by morning, everyeveryone man as much as he shouldwould eat; but when the sun grewbecame hot, it would melt.
16:23	then he said to them, “This is what the Lord meant: Tomorrow is a sabbathSabbath observance, a holy sabbathSabbath to the Lord. Bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over put aside to be kept until morning.”
16:24	So they put it aside until morning, as Moses had ordered, and it did not becomestink foul nor was there anya wormmaggot in it.
16:25	Then Moses said, “Eat it today, for today is a sabbathSabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field.
16:26	Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, the sabbathSabbath, there will be none.”
16:27	ItYet it came about on the seventh day that some of the people went out to gather, but they found none.
16:29	See, the Lord has given you the sabbathSabbath; thereforefor that reason He gives you bread for two days on the sixth day. Remain, everyeveryone, man in his place; let no manone gois outto ofleave his place on the seventh day.”
16:31	TheAnd the house of Israel named itthe bread manna, and it was like coriander seed, white, and its taste was like wafers with honey.
16:32	Then Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded,: ‘LetA anfull omerfulomer of it is to be kept safe throughout your generations, so that they may see the bread that I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’ ”
16:33	And Moses said to Aaron, “Take a jar and put ana omerfulfull omer of manna in it, and place it before the Lord to be kept safe throughout your generations.”
16:35	TheAnd the sons of Israel ate the manna for forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate the manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.
17:2	ThereforeSo the people quarreled with Moses and said, “Give us water so that we may drink.”!” And Moses said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test the Lord?”
17:3	But the people thirstedwere therethirsty for water there; and they grumbled against Moses and said, “Why, now,is it that you have you brought us up from Egypt, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?”
17:4	So Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, “What shallam I to do towith this people? A little more and they will stone me.”!”
17:6	Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock at Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, so that the people may drink.” And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
17:7	HeThen he named the place Massah and Meribah because of the quarrel of the sons of Israel, and because they tested the Lord, saying, “Is the Lord among us, or not?”
17:10	Joshua did just as Moses told him, and fought against Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
17:11	So it came about, when Moses held his hand up, that Israel prevailed,; andbut when he let his hand down, Amalek prevailed.
17:12	ButAnd Moses’ hands were heavy. ThenSo they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it; and Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side and one on the other. ThusSo his hands were steady until the sun set.
17:13	SoAnd Joshua overwhelmeddefeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
17:14	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write this in a book as a memorial and recite it to Joshua, that I will utterly blotwipe out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.”
17:15	And Moses built an altar and named it The Lord is My Banner;
17:16	and he said, “TheBecause the Lord has sworn;, the Lord will have war against Amalek from generation to generation.”
18:1	Now Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father-in-law, heard ofabout alleverything that God had done for Moses and for Israel His people, how the Lord had brought Israel out of Egypt.
18:2	And Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took in Moses’ wife Zipporah, after he had sent her away,
18:3	and her two sons, one of whom one was named Gershom, for Moses said, “I have been a sojournerstranger in a foreign land.”
18:4	TheAnd the other was named Eliezer, for he said, “The God of my father was my help, and deliveredsaved me from the sword of Pharaoh.”
18:5	Then Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness where he was camped, at the mountmountain of God.
18:6	HeAnd he sent word to Moses,: “I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with her.”
18:7	Then Moses went out to meet his father-in-law, and he bowed down and kissed him; and they asked each other ofabout their welfare, and went into the tent.
18:8	Moses told his father-in-law alleverything that the Lord had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, all the hardship that had befallenconfronted them on the journey, and how the Lord had deliveredrescued them.
18:9	And Jethro rejoiced over all the goodness which the Lord had done tofor Israel, in deliveringrescuing them from the hand of the Egyptians.
18:10	So Jethro said, “Blessed be the Lord who deliveredrescued you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of Pharaoh, and who deliveredrescued the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
18:11	Now I know that the Lord is greater than all the gods; indeed, it was proven when they dealtacted proudlyinsolently against the people.”
18:13	ItAnd it came about the next day, that Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood aboutbefore Moses from the morning until the evening.
18:14	Now when Moses’ father-in-law saw all that he was doing for the people, he said, “What is this thing that you are doing for the people? Why do you alone sit as judge and all the people stand aboutbefore you from morning until evening?”
18:16	When they have a dispute, it comes to me, and I judge between asomeone man and his neighbor and make known the statutes of God and His laws.”
18:17	Moses’ father-in-law then said to him, “The thing that you are doing is not good.
18:18	You will surely wear out, both yourself and these people who are with you, forbecause the task is too heavy for you; you cannot do it alone.
18:20	then teachadmonish them about the statutes and the laws, and make known to them the way in which they are to walk and the work they are to do.
18:21	Furthermore, you shall select out of all the people able men who fear God, men of truth, those who hate dishonest gain; and you shall place these over them as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.
18:22	Let them judge the people at all times; and let it be that every major dispute they will bring to you every major matter, but they will judge every minor disputematter they themselves will judge. So it will be easier for you, and they will bearcarry the burden with you.
18:23	If you do this thing and God so commands you, then you will be able to endure, and all these people also will go to their placeplaces in peace.”
18:24	So Moses listened to his father-in-law and did alleverything that he had said.
18:25	Moses chose able men out of all Israel and made them heads over the people, leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.
18:26	TheyThen they judged the people at all times; the difficult dispute they would bring the difficult matter to Moses, but they would judge every minor disputematter they themselves would judge.
18:27	Then Moses badesaid goodbye to his father-in-law farewell, and heJethro went his way intoto his own land.
19:3	And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain, saying, “ThusThis is what you shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the sons of Israel:
19:4	‘You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I borecarried you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to Myself.
19:8	AllThen all the people answered together and said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do!” And Moses brought back the words of the people to the Lord.
19:9	TheThen the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I will come to you in a thick cloud, so that the people may hear when I speak with you and may also believetrust in you forever.” Then Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
19:10	The Lord also said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and lethave them wash their garments;
19:11	and lethave them be ready for the third day, for on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.
19:12	YouBut you shall set boundsboundaries for the people all around, saying, ‘Beware that you do not go up on the mountain or touch the border of it; whoever touches the mountain shall surelycertainly be put to death.
19:13	No hand shall touch him, but he shall surelycertainly be stoned or shot through; whether beastanimal or manperson, hethe violator shall not live.’ When the ram’s horn sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain.”
19:15	He also said to the people, “Be ready for the third day; do not go near a woman.”
19:16	So it came about on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunder and lightning flashes and a thick cloud uponover the mountain and a very loud trumpet sound, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled.
19:18	Now Mount Sinai was all in smoke because the Lord descended upon it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the wholeentire mountain quaked violently.
19:19	When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him with thunder.
19:20	TheThen the Lord came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain; and the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
19:21	Then the Lord spoke to Moses,: “Go down, warn the people, so that they do not break through to the Lord to gazestare, and many of them perish.
19:22	Also lethave the priests who comeapproach near to the Lord consecrate themselves, or else the Lord will break out against them.”
19:23	And Moses said to the Lord, “The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai, for You warned us, saying, ‘Set boundsboundaries aboutaround the mountain and consecrate it.’ ”
19:24	Then the Lord said to him, “Go down and come up again, you and Aaron with you; but do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, or He will break forthout uponagainst them.”
20:4	“You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath, or in the water under the earth.
20:5	You shall not worship them ornor serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visitinginflicting the iniquitypunishment of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me,
20:6	but showing lovingkindnessfavor to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
20:8	“Remember the sabbathSabbath day, to keep it holy.
20:9	SixFor six days you shall labor and do all your work,
20:10	but the seventh day is a sabbathSabbath of the Lord your God; inon it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male slave or your female servantslave, or your cattle, or your sojournerresident who stays with you.
20:11	For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and alleverything that is in them, and He rested on the seventh day; thereforefor that reason the Lord blessed the sabbathSabbath day and made it holy.
20:12	“Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be prolonged inon the land which the Lord your God gives you.
20:16	“You shall not beargive false witnesstestimony against your neighbor.
20:17	“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male servantslave, or his female servantslave, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”
20:18	AllAnd all the people perceivedwere watching and hearing the thunder and the lightning flashes, and the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it all, they trembled and stood at a distance.
20:19	Then they said to Moses, “Speak to us yourself and we will listen; but letdo not have God speak to us, or we will die.”!”
20:20	However, Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid; for God has come in order to test you, and in order that the fear of Him may remain with you, so that you maywill not sin.”
20:21	So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached the thick clouddarkness where God was.
20:22	Then the Lord said to Moses, “ThusThis is what you shall say to the sons of Israel,: ‘You yourselves have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
20:25	IfAnd if you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your toolchisel on it, you will profane it.
21:2	“If you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve for six years; but on the seventh he shall goleave out as a free man without a payment to you.
21:3	If he comes alone, he shall goleave out alone; if he is the husband of a wife, then his wife shall goleave out with him.
21:4	If his master gives him a wife, and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall goleave out alone.
21:5	But if the slave plainly says, ‘I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not goleave out as a free man,’
21:7	“IfNow if a man sells his daughter as a female slave, she is not to go free as the male slaves do.
21:8	If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who designated her for himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He does not have authority to sell her to a foreign people, because of his unfairness to her.
21:9	IfAnd if he designates her for his son, he shall deal with her according to the custom of daughters.
21:11	IfBut if he will not do these three things for her, then she shall go outfree for nothing, without payment of money.
21:12	“He who strikes asomeone man so that he dies shall surelycertainly be put to death.

24:3	Then Moses came and recountedreported to the people all the words of the Lord and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice and said, “All the words which the Lord has spoken we will do!”
24:4	And Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord. Then he arosegot up early in the morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mountain with twelve pillarsmemorial stones for the twelve tribes of Israel.
24:5	HeAnd he sent young men of the sons of Israel, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the Lord.
24:7	Then he took the bookBook of the covenantCovenant and read it inas the hearingpeople of the peoplelistened; and they said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient!”
24:11	Yet He did not stretchreach out with His hand against the nobles of the sons of Israel; and they saw God, and they ate and drank.
24:12	Now the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and remainstay there, and I will give you the stone tablets with the lawLaw and the commandmentcommandments which I have written for their instruction.”
24:13	So Moses arosegot up along with Joshua his servant, and Moses went up to the mountain of God.

29:31	“YouNow you shall take the ram of ordination and boil its flesh in a holy place.
29:32	Then Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket, at the doorway of the tent of meeting.
29:33	ThusSo they shall eat those things by which atonement was made at their ordination and consecration; but a layman shall not eat them, because they are holy.
29:34	IfAnd if any of the flesh of ordination or any of the bread remains until morning, then you shall burn the remainder with fire; it shall not be eaten, because it is holy.
29:35	“ThusSo you shall do tofor Aaron and tofor his sons, according to all that I have commanded you; you shall ordain them throughfor seven days.
29:38	“Now this is what you shall offer on the altar: two one -year -old lambs each day, continuously.
29:39	The one lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight;
29:40	and there shall be one-a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-a fourth of a hin of beaten oil, and one-a fourth of a hin of wine for a drink offering with one lamb.
29:44	I will consecrate the tent of meeting and the altar; I will also consecrate Aaron and his sons to ministerserve as priests to Me.
29:45	And I will dwell among the sons of Israel and will be their God.
29:46	TheyAnd they shall know that I am the Lord their God who brought them out of the land of Egypt, so that I might dwell among them; I am the Lord their God.
30:1	“Moreover,Now you shall make an altar as a place for burning incense; you shall make it of acacia wood.
30:2	Its length shall be a cubit, and its width a cubit,; it shall be square, and its height shall be two cubits; its horns shall be of one piece with it.
30:4	You shall also make two gold rings for it under its molding; you shall make them on its two side wallssides—on opposite sides—and they shall be holders for poles with which to carry it.
30:5	YouAnd you shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
30:6	You shall put this altar in front of the veil that is near the ark of the testimony, in front of the mercyatoning seatcover that is over the ark of the testimony, where I will meet with you.
30:8	WhenAnd when Aaron trimssets up the lamps at twilight, he shall burn incense. There shall be perpetual incense before the Lord throughout your generations.
30:9	You shall not offer any strange incense on this altar, or burnt offering, or meal offering; and you shall not pour out a drink offering on it.
30:10	However, Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once a year; he shall make atonement on it with the blood of the sin offering of atonement once a year throughout your generations. It is most holy to the Lord.”
30:12	“When you take a census of the sons of Israel to numbercount them, then each one of them shall give a ransom for himself to the Lord, when you numbercount them, so that there will be no plague among them when you numbercount them.
30:13	This is what everyone who is numberedcounted shall give: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs), half a shekel as a contribution to the Lord.
30:14	Everyone who is numberedcounted, from twenty years old and over, shall give the contribution to the Lord.
30:15	The rich shall not pay more, and the poor shall not pay less, than the half shekel, when you give the contribution to the Lord to make atonement for yourselves.
30:16	YouAnd you shall take the atonement money from the sons of Israel and shall give it for the service of the tent of meeting, so that it may be a memorial for the sons of Israel before the Lord, to make atonement for yourselves.”
30:17	TheThen the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
30:18	“You shall also make a laverbasin of bronze, with its base of bronze, for washing; and you shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.
30:20	when they enter the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water, so that they willdo not die; or when they approach the altar to minister, by offering up in smoke a fire sacrifice to the Lord.
30:21	So they shall wash their hands and their feet, so that they willdo not die; and it shall be a perpetualpermanent statute for them, for Aaron and his descendants throughout their generations.”
30:23	“Take also for yourself the finest of spices: of flowingliquid myrrh five hundred shekels, and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, two hundred and fifty250, and of fragrant cane two hundred and fifty250,
30:24	and of cassia five hundred500, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive oil a hin.
30:25	You shall make offrom these a holy anointing oil, a perfumefragrant mixture of ointments, the work of a perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil.
30:26	WithAnd it you shall anoint the tent of meeting with it, and the ark of the testimony,
30:28	and the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and the laverbasin and its stand.
30:29	You shall also consecrate them, so that they may be most holy; whatever touches them shall be holy.
30:30	YouAnd you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, so that they may ministerserve as priests to Me.
30:31	YouFurthermore, you shall speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations.
30:33	Whoever shallmixes mix any like it or whoever puts any of it on a layman shall be cut off from his people.’ ”
30:34	Then the Lord said to Moses, “Take for yourself spices—stacte, stacte and onycha, and galbanum, spices withand pure frankincense; there shall be an equal part of each.
30:35	WithYou it you shall make incense from it all, a perfumeskillful mixture, the work of a perfumer, salted, pure, and holy.
30:36	YouAnd you shall beatcrush some of it very fine, and put part of it beforein front of the testimony in the tent of meeting where I will meet with you; it shall be most holy to you.
30:37	TheAnd the incense which you shall make, you shall not make in the same proportions for yourselves; it shall be holy to you for the Lord.
30:38	Whoever shallmakes make any like it, to use as perfume, shall be cut off from his people.”
31:3	And I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all kinds of craftsmanship,
31:4	to makecreate artistic designs for work in gold, in silver, and in bronze,
31:5	and in the cutting of stones for settings, and in the carving of wood, so that he may work in all kinds of craftsmanship.
31:6	And behold, I Myself have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the hearts of all who are skillful I have put skill, so that they may make alleverything that I have commanded you:
31:7	the tent of meeting, and the ark of testimony, and the mercyatoning seatcover uponthat is on it, and all the furniture of the tent,
31:8	the table also and its utensils, and the pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, and the altar of incense,
31:9	the altar of burnt offering also with all its utensils, and the laverbasin and its stand,
31:10	the woven garments as well,: and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, with which to carry onout their priesthood;
31:11	the anointing oil also, and the fragrant incense for the holyHoly placePlace, they are to make them according to alleverything that I have commanded you.”
31:12	TheNow the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
31:13	“ButNow as for you, speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘You shallmust surelykeep observe My sabbathsSabbaths; for this is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, so that you may know that I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
31:14	Therefore you are to observekeep the sabbathSabbath, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shallmust surely be put to death; for whoever does any work on it, that person shall be cut off from among his people.
31:15	For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day there is a sabbathSabbath of complete rest, holy to the Lord; whoever does any work on the sabbathSabbath day shallmust surely be put to death.
31:16	So the sons of Israel shall observekeep the sabbathSabbath, to celebrate the sabbathSabbath throughout their generations as a perpetualpermanent covenant.’
31:18	When He had finished speaking with him uponon Mount Sinai, He gave Moses the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, written by the finger of God.
32:1	Now when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people assembled aboutaround Aaron and said to him, “Come, make us a god who will go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt, —we do not know what hashappened becometo of him.”
32:3	ThenSo all the people tore off the gold rings which were in their ears and brought them to Aaron.
32:4	HeThen he took thisthe gold from their handhands, and fashioned it with aan gravingengraving tool and made it into a moltencast metal calf; and they said, “This is your god, O Israel, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.”
32:5	Now when Aaron saw this, he built an altar beforein front of it; and Aaron made a proclamation and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to the Lord.”
32:6	So the next day they rosegot up early and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rosegot up to playengage in lewd behavior.
32:7	Then the Lord spoke to Moses, “Go down at once, for your people, whom you brought up from the land of Egypt, have corruptedbehaved themselvescorruptly.
32:8	They have quickly turned aside from the way which I commanded them. They have made for themselves a moltencast metal calf, and have worshiped it and have sacrificed to it and said, ‘This is your god, O Israel, who brought you up from the land of Egypt!’ ”
32:9	TheThen the Lord said to Moses, “I have seen this people, and behold, they are an obstinate people.
32:10	NowSo thennow letleave Me alone, that My anger may burn against them and that I may destroy them; and I will make of you a great nation.”
32:11	Then Moses entreatedpleaded with the Lord his God, and said, “O Lord, why does Your anger burn against Your people whom You have brought out from the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
32:12	Why should the Egyptians speaktalk, saying, ‘With evil intentmotives He brought them out, to kill them inon the mountains and to destroy them from the face of the earth’? Turn from Your burning anger and changerelent Yourof mind about doing harm to Your people.
32:14	So the Lord changedrelented Hisof mind about the harm which He said He would do to His people.
32:18	But he said, “It is not the sound of the cry of triumphvictory, Nor is it the sound of the cry of defeat; But I hear the sound of singing I hear.”
32:19	ItAnd it came about, as soon as Moses cameapproached near the camp, that he saw the calf and the people dancing; and Moses’ anger burned, and he threw the tablets from his hands and shattered them to pieces at the foot of the mountain.
32:20	HeThen he took the calf which they had made and completely burned it with fire, and ground it to powder, and scattered it over the surface of the water and made the sons of Israel drink it.
32:21	Then Moses said to Aaron, “What did this people do to you, that you have brought such a great sin upon them?”
32:22	And Aaron said, “Do not let the anger of my lord burn; you know the people yourself, that they are prone to evil.
32:23	For they said to me, ‘Make a god for us who will go before us; for this Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt, —we do not know what hashappened becometo of him.’
32:24	So I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them tear it off.’ SoThen they gave it to me, and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.”
32:25	Now when Moses saw that the people were out of control—for Aaron had let them get out of control to bethe apoint derisionof being an object of ridicule among their enemies—
32:26	Moses then Moses stood inat the gate of the camp, and said, “Whoever is for the Lord, come to me!” And all the sons of Levi gathered together to him.
32:27	HeAnd he said to them, “ThusThis saysis what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Every man of you put his sword uponon his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate in the camp, and kill every man his brother, and every man his friend, and every man his neighbor.’ ”
32:30	OnAnd on the next day Moses said to the people, “You yourselves have committed a great sin; and now I am going up to the Lord,; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.”
32:31	Then Moses returned to the Lord, and said, “AlasOh, this people has committed a great sin, and they have made a god of gold for themselves.!
32:32	But now, if You will, forgive their sin—and, very well; but if not, please blotwipe me out from Your book which You have written!”
32:33	TheHowever, the Lord said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blotwipe him out of My book.
32:34	But go now, lead the people where I told you. Behold, My angel shall go before you; nevertheless inon the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin.”
32:35	Then the Lord smotestruck the people with a plague, because of what they did with the calf which Aaron had made.
33:2	And I will send an angel before you and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
33:4	When the people heard this sad word, they went into mourning, and none of them put on his ornamentsjewelry.
33:5	For the Lord had said to Moses, “Say to the sons of Israel, ‘You are an obstinate people; shouldif I were to go up in your midst for just one moment, I would destroy you. NowSo thereforenow, puttake off your ornamentsjewelry from you, that I may know what I shall do withto you.’ ”
33:6	So the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornamentsjewelry, from Mount Horeb onward.
33:10	When all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance of the tent, all the people would arisestand and worship, each at the entrance of his tent.
33:11	ThusSo the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend. When Moses returned to the camp, his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, would not depart from the tent.
33:13	Now thereforethen, I pray You, if I have found favor in Your sight in any way, please let me know Your ways so that I may know You, soin order that I may find favor in Your sight. Consider too, that this nation is Your people.”
33:16	For how then can it be known that I have found favor in Your sight, I and Your people? Is it not by Your going with us, so that we, I and Your people, may be distinguished from all the other people who are uponon the face of the earth?”
33:18	Then Moses said, “I pray YouPlease, show me Your glory!”
33:19	And He said, “I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the Lord before you; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compassion onto whom I will show compassion.”
33:20	But He further said, “You cannot see My face, for nomankind manshall cannot see Me and live!”
34:1	Now the Lord said to Moses, “Cut out for yourself two stone tablets like the former ones, and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the former tablets which you shatteredsmashed.
34:3	NoAnd manno one is to come up with you, nor let anyanyone man be seen anywhere on the mountain; even the flocks and the herds mayare not to graze in front of that mountain.”
34:4	So he cut out two stone tablets like the former ones, and Moses rosegot up early in the morning and went up to Mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, and he took the two stone tablets in his hand.
34:5	TheAnd the Lord descended in the cloud and stood there with him as he called upon the name of the Lord.
34:6	Then the Lord passed by in front of him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, compassionate and graciousmerciful, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindnessfaithfulness and truth;
34:7	who keeps lovingkindnessfaithfulness for thousands, who forgives iniquitywrongdoing, transgressionviolation of His Law, and sin; yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished, visitinginflicting the iniquitypunishment of fathers on the children and on the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations.”
34:8	And Moses madehurried haste to bow low toward the earthground and worship.
34:9	HeThen he said, “If nowin any way I have found favor in Your sight, O Lord, Iplease pray,may let the Lord go along in our midst, even though the people are so obstinate, and pardon our iniquitywrongdoing and our sin, and take us as Your own possession.”
34:11	“Be sure to observecomply with what I am commanding you this day: behold, I am going to drive out the Amorite beforefrom you, and the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
34:12	WatchBe yourselfcareful that you do not make noa covenant with the inhabitants of the land into which you are going, or it will become a snare in your midst.
34:13	But rather, you are to tear down their altars and smash their sacredmemorial pillarsstones, and cut down their Asherim
34:14	—for you shall not worship any other god, forbecause the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God—
34:15	otherwise you might make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they would playprostitute thethemselves harlot with their gods and sacrifice to their gods, and someone might invite you to eat of his sacrifice,

36:1	“Now Bezalel, and Oholiab, and every skillful person in whom the Lord has put skill and understanding to know how to perform all the work in the construction of the sanctuary, shall perform in accordance with alleverything that the Lord has commanded.”
36:2	Then Moses called Bezalel, and Oholiab, and every skillful person in whom the Lord had put skill, everyone whose heart stirred him, to come to the work to perform it.
36:3	They received from Moses allevery thecontribution contributions which the sons of Israel had brought to perform the work in the construction of the sanctuary. And they still continued bringing to him freewillvoluntary offerings every morning.
36:4	And all the skillful menpeople who were performing all the work of the sanctuary came, each from the work which hethey waswere performing,
36:6	So Moses issued a command, and circulated a proclamation was circulated throughout the camp, saying, “LetNo no man or woman anyis longerto perform work any longer for the contributions of the sanctuary.” ThusSo the people were restrained from bringing any more.
36:8	All the skillful menpeople among those who were performing the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twisted linen and blueviolet, and purple, and scarlet material, with cherubim, the work of a skillfulskilled workmanembroiderer, Bezalel made them.

36:21	Ten cubits was the length of each board, and one and a half cubits the width of each board.
36:22	There were two tenons for each board, fitted to one another; thus he did forthis to all the boards of the tabernacle.
36:23	HeSo he made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side;
36:24	and he made forty socketsbases of silver under the twenty boards; two socketsbases under one board for its two tenons, and two socketsbases under another board for its two tenons.
36:26	and their forty socketsbases of silver; two socketsbases under one board, and two socketsbases under another board.
36:27	ForAnd for the rearback of the tabernacle, to the west, he made six boards.
36:28	He made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle at the rearback.
36:29	They were double beneath, and together they were complete to its top, to the first ring; thus he did this with both of them for the two corners.
36:30	There were eight boards with their socketsbases of silver, sixteen socketsbases, two bases under every board.
36:32	and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the rearback side to the west.

38:5	He also cast four rings on the four ends of the bronze grating as holders for the poles.
38:7	HeThen he inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, with which to carry it. He made it hollow with planks.
38:8	Moreover, he made the laverbasin of bronze with its base of bronze, from the mirrors of the serving women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting.

38:22	Now Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made alleverything that the Lord had commanded Moses.
38:23	With him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillfulskilled workmanembroiderer, and a weaver in blueviolet, and in purple, and in scarlet material, and fine linen.

39:2	He made the ephod of gold, and of blueviolet, and purple, and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen.
39:3	Then they hammered out gold sheets and cut them into threads to be woven in with the blueviolet, and the purple, and the scarlet material, and the fine linen, the work of a skillfulskilled workmanembroiderer.
39:5	TheAnd the skillfully woven band of its overlay which was on it was like its workmanship, of the same material: of gold and of blueviolet, and purple, and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
39:6	They also made the onyx stones, set in gold filigree settings; they were engraved like the engravings of a signet, according to the names of the sons of Israel.
39:7	And he placed them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as memorial stones for the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
39:8	HeAnd he made the breastpiece, the work of a skillfulskilled workmanembroiderer, like the workmanship of the ephod: of gold and of blueviolet, and purple, and scarlet material and fine twisted linen.
39:11	and the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond;

39:18	TheyAnd they put the other two ends of the two cords on the two filigree settings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.
39:21	TheyAnd they bound the breastpiece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blueviolet cord, so that it would be on the woven band of the ephod, and that the breastpiece would not come loose from the ephod, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

39:31	TheyThen they fastened a blueviolet cord to it, to fasten it on the turban above, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
39:32	ThusSo all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting was completed; and the sons of Israel did according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses; so they did.
39:33	TheyThen they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings: its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars, and its socketsbases;

39:41	the woven garments for ministering in the holyHoly placePlace, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to ministerserve as priests.
39:42	So the sons of Israel did all the work according to alleverything that the Lord had commanded Moses.
39:43	And Moses examined all the work, and behold, they had done it; just as the Lord had commanded, this they had done. So Moses blessed them.
40:3	You shall place the ark of the testimony there, and you shall screen off the ark with the veil.
40:4	YouThen you shall bring in the table and arrange what belongs on it; and you shall bring in the lampstand and mount its lamps.
40:5	Moreover,You you shall also set the gold altar of incense beforein front of the ark of the testimony, and set up the veilcurtain for the doorway to the tabernacle.
40:6	YouAnd you shall set the altar of burnt offering in front of the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
40:7	YouThen you shall set the laverbasin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
40:8	You shall also set up the courtcourtyard all around and hang up the veilcurtain for the gatewaygate of the courtcourtyard.
40:9	Then you shall take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and alleverything that is in it, and shall consecrate it and all its furnishings; and it shall be holy.
40:10	You shall also anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
40:11	YouAnd you shall anoint the laverbasin and its stand, and consecrate it.
40:13	YouAnd you shall put the holy garments on Aaron and anoint him and consecrate him, so that he may ministerserve as a priest to Me.
40:14	You shall also bring his sons and put tunics on them;
40:15	and you shall anoint them evenjust as you have anointed their father, so that they may ministerserve as priests to Me; and their anointing will qualify them for a perpetualpermanent priesthood throughout their generations.”
40:16	ThusSo Moses did these things; according to all that the Lord had commanded him, so he did.
40:18	Moses erected the tabernacle and laid its socketsbases, and set up its boards, and inserted its bars, and erected its pillars.
40:19	HeAnd he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
40:20	Then he took the testimony and put it into the ark, and attached the poles to the ark, and put the mercyatoning seatcover on top of the ark.
40:21	He then brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up a veil for the screencovering, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
40:22	ThenHe healso put the table in the tent of meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil.
40:23	HeAnd he set the arrangement of bread in order on it before the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
40:25	HeAnd he lighted the lamps before the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
40:28	Then he set up the veilcurtain for the doorway of the tabernacle.
40:29	HeAnd he set the altar of burnt offering beforein front of the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
40:30	He placed the laverbasin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it for washing.
40:33	HeAnd he erected the courtcourtyard all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the veilcurtain for the gatewaygate of the courtcourtyard. ThusSo Moses finished the work.
40:35	And Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
40:36	Throughout all their journeys, whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the sons of Israel would set out;
40:38	For throughout all their journeys, the cloud of the Lord was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel.
