Leviticus Chapter 4

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which ought not to be done and shall do any of them,
3 if the priest that is anointed sins according to the guiltiness of the people, he shall offer for his sin, which he has committed, a young bullock without blemish unto the Lord for his sin.
4 And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord and shall lay his hand upon the bullock’s head and kill the bullock before the Lord.
5 And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock’s blood and bring it to the tabernacle of the testimony;
6 and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the Lord, before the veil of the sanctuary.
7 And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of aromatic incense before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of the testimony, and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
8 And he shall take off all the fat of the bullock for the sin: the fat that covers the intestines and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
9 and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them, and that which is upon the flanks and with the kidneys he shall take away the caul above the liver,
10 as it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace; and the priest shall incense them upon the altar of the burnt offering.
11 And the skin of the bullock and all its flesh, with its head and with its legs, and his intestines and his dung,
12 even the whole bullock he shall carry forth outside the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes with the burnt fat are poured out and burn it on the wood with fire, where the ashes with the burnt fat are poured out shall it be burnt.
13 And if the whole congregation of Israel sins through ignorance and the thing was hid from the eyes of the assembly and they have done something against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which should not be done and are guilty,
14 when the sin, which they have committed, is understood, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock as the sin and bring it before the tabernacle of the testimony.
15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the Lord, and the bullock shall be killed before the Lord.
16 And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock’s blood to the tabernacle of the testimony.
17 And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord, even before the veil.
18 And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before the Lord, that is in the tabernacle of the testimony and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
19 And he shall take all the fat and incense it upon the altar.
20 And he shall do with this bullock as he did with the bullock of the sin, so shall he do with this; and thus the priest shall reconcile them, and they shall obtain forgiveness.
21 And he shall carry forth the bullock outside the camp and burn it as he burned the first bullock; it is the sin of the congregation.
22 When the prince has sinned and done something through ignorance against any of the commandments of the Lord his God concerning things which should not be done and is guilty,
23 as soon as he is notified of his sin, which he has committed, then he shall bring his offering, a he goat, a male without blemish.
24 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the he goat and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before the Lord; it is sin.
25 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin with his finger and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering and shall pour out its blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering;
26 and he shall burn all its fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace; thus shall the priest reconcile him as concerning his sin, and he shall have forgiveness.
27 And if any one of the people of the land sins through ignorance, by doing something against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which ought not to be done, and is guilty,
28 as soon as his sin, which he has committed, comes to his knowledge, then he shall bring as his offering, a she goat, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has committed.
29 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin and slay the sin in the place of the burnt offering.
30 Then the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering and shall pour out all its blood at the bottom of the altar.
31 And he shall take away all its fat, as the fat was taken away from off the sacrifice of peace; and the priest shall incense it upon the altar in a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord; and thus shall the priest reconcile him, and he shall have forgiveness.
32 And if he brings a lamb as his offering, as the sin, he shall bring a female without blemish.
33 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin and slay the sin in the place where they kill the burnt offering.
34 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering and shall pour out all its blood at the bottom of the altar.
35 And he shall take away all its fat, as the fat of the lamb of the sacrifice of peace was taken away; and the priest shall incense it upon the altar in an offering on fire unto the Lord; and thus shall the priest reconcile him from his sin that he has committed, and he shall have forgiveness.

Leviticus Chapter 5

1 And when a person commits sin, because they were called to testify under oath, and he was a witness that has seen or known of it, if he does not declare it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
2 Likewise the person who touches any unclean thing, whether it is a carcase of an unclean beast or a carcase of unclean animal or the carcase of an unclean serpent, even if it is hidden from him, he shall be unclean and guilty.
3 Or if he touches the uncleanness of man, whatever uncleanness it is that a man shall be defiled with, and it is hid from him, if afterward he should know of it, then he shall be guilty.
4 Also the person who swears, pronouncing with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it is that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it is hid from him, when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these.
5 And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he has sinned;
6 and he shall bring for his guilt unto the Lord for his sin, which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb, or a kid of the goats, for his sin; and the priest shall reconcile him from his sin.
7 And if he is not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring for the guilt of his sin two turtledoves or two young pigeons unto the Lord, one for his sin and the other for a burnt offering.
8 And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin first and wring off its head from its neck but shall not divide it asunder;
9 and he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar; it is sin.
10 And he shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the ordinance; and thus shall the priest reconcile him for his sin in which he has sinned, and he shall have forgiveness.
11 But if he is not able to bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for his sin; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense thereon, for it is sin.
12 Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it, even a memorial thereof, and incense it on the altar upon the other offerings on fire unto the Lord; it is sin.
13 Thus shall the priest reconcile him from his sin in which he has sinned in one of these things, and he shall have forgiveness; and that which remains shall be the priest’s, as with a present.
14 And the Lord spoke further unto Moses, saying,
15 When any person commits a trespass and sins through ignorance, in the holy things of the Lord, then he shall bring for the expiation of his guilt unto the Lord a ram without blemish out of the flocks, in thy estimation of two shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for his guilt;
16 And he shall pay for the sin that he has done in the holy thing and shall add the fifth part thereto and give it unto the priest; and the priest shall reconcile him with the ram of the expiation of his guilt, and he shall have forgiveness.
17 Finally, if a person commits a sin by doing any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the Lord, without doing it knowingly, he is guilty and shall bear his iniquity.
18 And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, in thy estimation, for the expiation of his guilt, unto the priest; and the priest shall reconcile him from his error which he committed in ignorance, and he shall have forgiveness.
19 It is for his guilt; he is certainly guilty against the Lord.

Leviticus Chapter 6

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 If a person commits a sin, a trespass against the Lord, and denies unto his neighbour that which was delivered unto him to keep or left in his hand, or in a thing stolen, or has slandered his neighbour;
3 or has found that which was lost and then denies it and swears falsely, in any of all these in which a man can sin,
4 then it shall be that because he has sinned and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he stole, or for the damage of the slander, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,
5 or all that about which he has sworn falsely, he shall even restore it in the principal and shall add the fifth part more to it, for the one to whom it belongs, and he shall pay in the day of his guiltiness.
6 And he shall bring for the expiation of his guilt unto the Lord a ram without blemish out of the flock, in thy estimation, for his guilt, unto the priest;
7 and the priest shall reconcile him before the Lord, and he shall have forgiveness for any of all of the things in which he is guilty.
8 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
9 Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt offering (it is the burnt offering because of the burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be burning in it):
10 And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen underwear shall he put upon his flesh, and when the fire has consumed the burnt offering, he shall take up the ashes with the burnt fat on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.
11 Then he shall put off his garments and put on other garments and carry forth the ashes with the burnt fat outside the camp unto a clean place.
12 And the fire burning upon the altar shall not be put out, but the priest shall put wood on it every morning and lay the burnt offering in order upon it, and he shall burn upon it the fat of the peace.
13 The fire shall burn continuously upon the altar; it shall not be put out.
14 And this is the law of the present: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the Lord, before the altar.
15 And he shall take of it a handful of the flour of the present and of the oil thereof and all the frankincense which is upon the present and shall incense it upon the altar in an aroma of rest unto the Lord for a memorial.
16 And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat; without leaven it shall be eaten in the holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of the testimony they shall eat it.
17 It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it unto them for their portion of my offerings on fire; it is most holy, as is the atonement for sin and the expiation of guilt.
18 All the males among the sons of Aaron shall eat of it. It shall be a perpetual statute in your generations concerning the offerings on fire of the Lord; every thing that touches them shall be sanctified.
19 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
20 This shall be the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer unto the Lord in the day when they shall be anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a perpetual present, half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening.
21 In a pan it shall be made with oil; and when it is fried, thou shalt bring it in; and the cooked pieces of the present shalt thou offer in a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord.
22 And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead shall offer it; it is a perpetual statute unto the Lord; it shall be completely burnt.
23And every present of a priest shall be completely burnt; it shall not be eaten.
24 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
25 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This shall be the law of sin: In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the atonement as sin be killed before the Lord; for it is most holy.
26 The priest that offers it for the sin shall eat it; in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the testimony.
27 Whatever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be sanctified; and when some of the blood thereof is sprinkled upon any garment, thou shalt wash whatever it was sprinkled on in the holy place.
28 But the earthen vessel wherein it is cooked shall be broken; and if it is cooked in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured and rinsed in water.
29 All the males among the priests shall eat of it; it is most holy.
30 And no atonement as sin, of which any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the testimony to reconcile in the sanctuary, shall be eaten; it shall be burnt in the fire.

Leviticus 1 (JUB)

1 And the Lord called unto Moses, and spoke unto him out of the tabernacle of the testimony, saying,

2 Speak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, When any of you offers an offering unto the Lord of animals, of cattle, even of the cows, or of the sheep ye shall make your offering.

3 If his offering is a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish; he shall offer it of his own free will at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord.

4 And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering, and he shall accept it to reconcile him.

5 Then he shall kill the bullock before the Lord; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall offer the blood and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

6 And he shall flay the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces.

7 And the sons of Aaron, the priest, shall put fire upon the altar and lay the wood in order upon the fire.

8 Then the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts, the head and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire which shall be upon the altar;

9 but he shall wash its intestines and its legs in water, and the priest shall incense it all on the altar, to be a burnt sacrifice, an offering on fire, of a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord.

10 And if his offering is of the sheep, namely of the lambs or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice, he shall offer a male without blemish.

11 And he must kill it on the side of the altar, to the Aquilon before the Lord; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle its blood round about upon the altar.

12 And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which shall be upon the altar;

13 and he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water; and the priest shall offer it all and incense it upon the altar; it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering on fire, of a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord.

14 And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the Lord is to be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves or of young pigeons.

15 And the priest shall offer it upon the altar and wring off its head and incense it on the altar; and its blood shall be wrung out upon the side of the altar:

16 And he shall pluck away its crop and its feathers and cast them beside the altar on the east part, by the place of the ashes with the burnt fat.

17 And he shall cleave it by its wings but shall not divide it in two; and the priest shall incense it upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire; it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering on fire of a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord.

Leviticus 2 (JUB)

1 And when any person will offer a present unto the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it and put frankincense thereon;
2 and he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests, who shall take out a handful of the flour thereof, with its oil, with all its frankincense; and the priest shall incense it upon the altar, to be an offering on fire, of an aroma very acceptable unto the Lord.
3 And that which is left of the present shall be Aaron’s and his sons’;it is a thing most holy of the offerings on fire of the Lord.
4 And if thou shall offer a present baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil and unleavened wafers anointed with oil.
5 And if thy present is an offering baked in a pan, it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.
6 Thou shalt part it in pieces and pour oil thereon; it shall be a present.
7 And if thy present is an offering cooked in a pot, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
8 And thou shalt bring the present that is made of these things unto the Lord and offer it unto the priest, who shall bring it unto the altar.
9 And the priest shall take from that present a memorial thereof and shall incense it upon the altar; it shall be an offering on fire, of a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord.
10 And that which is left of the present shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; it is a thing most holy of the offerings on fire of the Lord.
11 No present which ye shall offer unto the Lord shall be with leaven; for of nothing leavened, nor any honey, shall ye make any offering incensed unto the Lord.
12 In the offering of the firstfruits ye shall offer them unto the Lord, but they shall not be offered on the altar for an acceptable aroma.
13 And every offering of thy present shalt thou season with salt, and thou shalt never allow the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy present; with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
14 And if thou offer a present of thy firstfruits unto the Lord, thou shalt offer for the offering of thy firstfruits green ears of grain dried by the fire, even grain beaten out of full ears.
15 And thou shalt put oil upon it and lay frankincense thereon: this shall be a present.
16 And the priest shall incense the memorial of it, part of the beaten grain thereof, and part of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof: this shall be an offering on fire unto the Lord.

Leviticus 3 (JUB)

1 And if his offering is a sacrifice of peace, if he offers it of the bovine cattle, whether it is male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the Lord.

2 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.

3 Then he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace for an offering on fire unto the Lord: the fat that covers the intestines and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

4 and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks and with the kidneys; he shall take away the caul above the liver.

5 And Aaron’s sons shall incense it on the altar with the burnt sacrifice, which shall be upon the wood that is on the fire; and this shall be an offering on fire, of a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord.

6 And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace unto the Lord is of the sheep, male or female, he shall offer it without blemish.

7 If he offers a lamb for his offering, he shall offer it before the Lord;

8 and he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering and then kill it before the tabernacle of the testimony; and Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood round about upon the altar.

9 And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace an offering on fire unto the Lord: its fat and the whole tail, which he shall take off from the backbone and the fat that covers the intestines and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

10 likewise the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and that which is upon the flanks and with the kidneys he shall take away the caul above the liver.

11 And the priest shall incense it upon the altar, and this shall be the food of the offering on fire unto the Lord.

12 And if his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before the Lord;

13 and he shall lay his hand upon the head of it and kill it before the tabernacle of the testimony; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.

14 Then he shall offer thereof his offering, even an offering on fire unto the Lord: the fat that covers the intestines and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

15 and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and that which is upon the flanks and with the kidneys he shall take away the caul above the liver.

16 And the priest shall incense them upon the altar; and this shall be the food of the offering on fire of a very acceptable aroma unto the Lord; all the fat is the Lord’s.

17 It shall be a perpetual statute for your ages; throughout all your dwellings that ye shall eat no fat and no blood.

Exodus Chapter 33 (JUB)

1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Depart and go up from here, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt unto the land which I swore unto Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it.
2 (And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.)
3 Unto the land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people lest I consume thee in the way.
4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned, and no one put on their ornaments.
5 For the Lord had said unto Moses, Say unto the sons of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people; I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment and consume thee; therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee that I may know what to do unto thee.
6 Then the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments from Mount Horeb on.
7 And Moses took the tabernacle and pitched it outside the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the tabernacle of the testimony. And it came to pass that every one who sought the Lord went out unto the tabernacle of the testimony, which was outside the camp.
8 And it came to pass when Moses would go out unto the tabernacle, that all the people would rise up and stand each one at the door of their tent, with their gaze following Moses until he was gone into the tabernacle.
9 And when Moses would enter into the tabernacle, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord would talk with Moses.
10 And when all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door, all the people would rise up, each one in the door of their tent, and worship.
11 And the Lord would speak unto Moses face to face, as anyone would speak unto their friend. And he would turn again into the camp, but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart out of the tabernacle.
12 And Moses said unto the Lord, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring this people out, and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou saith, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.
13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, show me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight; and consider that this nation is thy people.
14 And he said, My presence {Heb. faces} shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.
15 And he said unto him, If thy presence {Heb. faces} is not to go before us, do not bring us out of here.
16 For in what shall it be known here that I have found grace in thy sight, I and thy people, but in that thou goest with us, and I and thy people will be separated from all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth?
17 And the Lord said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken because thou hast found grace in my sight, and I have known thee by name.
18 Then he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory.
19 And he replied, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name that I AM before thee; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy and will show clemency on whom I will show clemency.
20 He further said, Thou canst not see my face; for no man shall see me and live.
21 And the Lord continued saying, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock;
22 and it shall come to pass while my glory passes by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock and will cover thee with my hand until I have passed by.
23 Then I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my back parts, but my face {Heb. faces} shall not be seen.

Exodus Chapter 34 (JUB)

1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Hew two tables of stone like unto the first; and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou didst break.
2 And be ready for tomorrow and come up in the morning unto Mount Sinai and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount.
3 And no man shall come up with thee; neither let anyone be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the sheep nor the cows feed before the mount.
4 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and Moses rose up early in the morning and went up unto Mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.
5 And the Lord descended in a cloud and was with him there proclaiming the name of I AM.
6 And as the Lord passed by before him, he proclaimed, I AM, I AM strong, merciful, and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in mercy and truth,
7 keeping mercy for thousands, letting go of iniquity and rebellion and sin; and by no means will I absolve the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons and upon the sons’ sons, unto the third and to the fourth generation.
8 Then Moses made haste and bowed his head toward the earth and worshipped.
9 And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us, for this is a stiffnecked people, and forgive our iniquity and our sin and possess us.
10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant before all thy people: I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom thou art shall see the work of the Lord; for it shall be a terrible thing that I will do with thee.
11 Keep that which I command thee this day; behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 Keep thyself lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where thou must enter lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee;
13 but ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves;
14 for thou shalt worship no other god; for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
15 Therefore thou shalt not make a covenant with the inhabitants of that land because they shall fornicate after their gods and do sacrifice unto their gods, and they shall call thee, and thou shalt eat of their sacrifices
16 or take of their daughters unto thy sons, and when their daughters go fornicating after their gods they shall make thy sons also fornicate after their gods.
17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
18 The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib; for in the month Abib thou didst come out from Egypt.
19 All that opens the womb is mine; and every firstborn among thy livestock, whether of cow or of sheep, that is male.
20 But the firstborn of an ass thou shalt ransom with a lamb, and if thou ransom him not, then shalt thou cut off his head. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt ransom, and none shall appear before me empty.
21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt cease; in ploughing time and in harvest thou shalt cease.
22 And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of the reaping of the wheat, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.
23 Three times in the year shall all your males appear before the GOD who is Lord of all, the God of Israel.
24 For I will cast the Gentiles out of thy presence and enlarge thy borders; neither shall anyone covet thy land when thou shalt go up to be seen before the Lord thy God three times a year.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice upon anything leavened; neither shall any of the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
26 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not cook a kid in his mother’s milk.
27 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write thou these words; for according to these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.
28 And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did not eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
29 And it came to pass, as Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses’ hand, while he came down from the mount, that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone after he had talked with him.
30 And when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.
31 And Moses called them, and Aaron and all the princes of the congregation returned unto him, and Moses talked with them.
32 And afterward all the sons of Israel came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him in Mount Sinai.
33 And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face.
34 But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he would take the veil off until he came out. And as he came out, he would speak unto the sons of Israel that which he was commanded.
35 And the sons of Israel would see the face of Moses that the skin of Moses’ face shone, and Moses would put the veil upon his face again until he would go in to speak with him.

Exodus 27 (JUB)

1 Thou shalt also make an altar of cedar wood, five cubits long and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare, and its height shall be three cubits.
2 And thou shalt make the horns of it upon its four corners; its horns shall be of the same, and thou shalt cover it with brass.
3 And thou shalt make its pans to receive the ashes with its burnt fat, and its shovels and its basins and its fleshhooks and its firepans; all the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass.
4 And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass; and upon the net shalt thou make four brasen rings in the four corners thereof.
5 And thou shalt put it under the circumference of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the altar.
6 Thou shalt also make staves for the altar, staves of cedar wood, and cover them with brass.
7 And the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar to bear it.
8 Hollow with boards shalt thou make it; as it was showed thee in the mount, so shall they make it.
9 In the same manner thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle; to the side of the Negev to the south there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen of one hundred cubits long for each side;
10 and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the capitals of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver.
11 And likewise for the side of the Aquilon in length there shall be hangings of one hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars with their twenty sockets of brass, the capitals of the pillars and their fillets of silver.
12 And for the breadth of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten.
13 And the breadth of the court on the side of the rising sun to the east shall be fifty cubits.
14 The hangings of one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits, their pillars three, and their sockets three.
15 And on the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits, their pillars three, and their sockets three.
16 And at the gate of the court there shall be a hanging of twenty cubits of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework; and their pillars shall be four and their sockets four.
17 All the pillars round about the court shall be filleted with silver; their capitals shall be of silver, and their sockets of brass.
18 The length of the court shall be one hundred cubits and the breadth fifty on the one side and fifty on the other and the height five cubits, its hangings of fine twined linen and their sockets of brass.
19 All the vessels of the tabernacle in all the service thereof and all the stakes thereof and all the stakes of the court, shall be of brass.
20 And thou shalt command the sons of Israel that they bring thee olive oil, clear, crushed, for the light, to cause the lamps to burn always.
21 In the tabernacle of the testimony outside the veil, which shall be before the ark of the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall order them from evening to morning before the Lord; it shall be a perpetual statute of the sons of Israel for their generations.

Exodus 28 (JUB)

1 And cause Aaron, thy brother, to come unto thee with his sons, from among the sons of Israel, that they may be my priests, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.
2 And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron, thy brother, for honour and for beauty.
3 And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the Spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron’s garments to sanctify him, that he may be my priest.
4 And these are the garments which they shall make: the pectoral, the ephod, the robe, the broidered coat, the mitre, and the girdle. Therefore let them make the holy garments for Aaron, thy brother, and his sons, that they may be my priests.
5 And they shall take gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine linen,
6 and they shall make the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.
7 It shall have its two shoulderpieces joined at the two edges thereof, and so it shall be joined together.
8 And the special girdle of the ephod, which shall be over it, shall be of its same workmanship, of the same materials: of gold, blue, purple, scarlet and fine twined linen.
9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel:
10 Six of their names on one stone and the other six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their birth.
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a seal, shalt thou engrave those two stones with the names of the sons of Israel; thou shalt make them to be set in settings of gold.
12 And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the sons of Israel, and Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
13 And thou shalt make the settings of gold
14 and two small chains of pure gold; of wreathen work shalt thou make them and fasten the wreathen chains to the settings.
15 And in the same manner thou shalt make the pectoral of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it, of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and of fine twined linen.
16 It shall be square and double; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.
17 And thou shalt fill it with four rows of stones; The order shall be a ruby, an emerald, and a chrysolite; this shall be the first order.
18 And the second order shall be a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 And the third order, a topaz, a turquoise, and an amethyst.
20 And the fourth row a tarshish (or beryl) and an onyx and a jasper; they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.
21 And those stones shall be in agreement with the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, in agreement with their names; each one in agreement with his name like the engravings of a seal; they shall be according to the twelve tribes.
22 And thou shalt also make upon the pectoral small chains of wreathen work of pure gold.
23 And thou shalt make upon the pectoral two rings of gold and shalt put the two rings on the two ends of the pectoral.
24 And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the pectoral.
25 And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt fasten in the two settings and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod on the front of it.
26 Thou shalt also make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the pectoral in the border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod inward.
27 Likewise two other rings of gold thou shalt make and shalt put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the front part thereof, over against the other coupling thereof, above the special girdle of the ephod.
28 And they shall bind the pectoral by its rings unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the special girdle of the ephod and that the pectoral not be loosed from the ephod.
29 And Aaron shall bear the names of the sons of Israel in the pectoral of judgment upon his heart when he goes in unto the sanctuary for a memorial before the Lord continually.
30 And thou shalt put in the pectoral of judgment Urim and Thummim, that they shall be upon Aaron’s heart when he goes in before the Lord; and Aaron shall always bear the judgment of the sons of Israel upon his heart before the Lord.
31 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
32 And it shall have the collar of his head in the midst thereof, which shall have a binding of woven work round about it, as the collar of a habergeon, that it not be rent.
33 And beneath upon the hem of it, thou shalt make pomegranates of blue and of purple and of scarlet round about the hem thereof and bells of gold between them round about.
34 A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate upon the hem of the robe round about.
35 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister, and his sound shall be heard when he goes in unto the sanctuary before the Lord and when he comes out, that he not die.
36 Thou shalt also make an open flower of pure gold and engrave upon it the engravings of a seal, HOLINESS UNTO THE Lord.
37 And thou shalt put it on with a blue lace that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.
38 And it shall be upon Aaron’s forehead that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the sons of Israel shall sanctify in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead that they may find grace before the Lord.
39 And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen, and thou shalt make the mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt make the girdle of needlework.
40 And for Aaron’s sons thou shalt make coats; thou shalt also make girdles for them, and tiaras shalt thou make for them, for honour and for beauty.
41 And with these thou shalt clothe Aaron, thy brother, and his sons with him and shalt anoint them and fill their hands and sanctify them that they may be my priests.
42 And thou shalt make them linen underwear to cover their nakedness; they shall reach from the loins even unto the thighs;
43 And they shall be upon Aaron and upon his sons when they enter into the tabernacle of the testimony or when they come near unto the altar to serve in the sanctuary that they not bear iniquity and die: This shall be a perpetual statute unto him and his seed after him.

Exodus 29 (JUB)

1 And this is what thou shalt do unto them to sanctify them that they shall be my priests: Take one young bullock and two perfect rams
2 and unleavened bread and unleavened cakes tempered with oil and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, which thou shalt make of wheat flour.
3 And thou shalt put them into a basket and offer them in the basket with the bullock and the two rams.
4 And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony and shalt wash them with water.
5 And thou shalt take the garments and clothe Aaron with the coat and the robe of the ephod and the ephod and the pectoral and gird him with the special girdle of the ephod;
6 and thou shalt put the mitre upon his head and put the crown of holiness upon the mitre.
7 Then shalt thou take the anointing oil and pour it upon his head and anoint him.
8 And thou shalt bring his sons and put coats upon them.
9 And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and bind the tiaras on them; and the priest’s office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute; and thou shalt fill the hands Aaron and his sons.
10 And thou shalt cause the bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of the testimony, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock.
11 And thou shalt kill the bullock before the Lord by the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
12 And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger and pour all the remaining blood beside the bottom of the altar.
13 And thou shalt take all the fat that covers the intestines and the caul that is above the liver and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and burn them upon the altar.
14 But the flesh of the bullock and his skin and his dung shalt thou burn with fire outside the camp; it is sin.
15 Thou shalt likewise take one ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.
16 And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take his blood and sprinkle it round about upon the altar.
17 And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces and wash his intestines and his legs and put them upon his pieces and upon his head.
18 And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt offering unto the Lord: it is a sweet savour, an offering on fire unto the Lord.
19 And thou shalt take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.
20 Then shalt thou kill the ram and take of his blood and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron and upon the tip of the right ears of his sons and upon the thumb of their right hands and upon the great toe of their right feet and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.
21 And thou shalt take of the blood that shall be upon the altar and of the anointing oil and sprinkle it upon Aaron and upon his garments and upon his sons and upon their garments, and he shall be sanctified, and his garments and his sons and his sons’ garments with him.
22 Then thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the tail and the fat that covers the intestines and the caul above the liver and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and the right shoulder, for it is a ram of consecrations,
23 Also one large loaf of bread and one cake of oiled bread and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the Lord;
24 and thou shalt put all this in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons and shalt lift them up and wave them before the Lord.
25 Then thou shalt take them from their hands and burn them upon the altar upon the burnt offering, for a sweet savour before the Lord. It is an offering on fire unto the Lord.
26 And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of the consecrations, which is of Aaron and wave it for a waved offering before the Lord; and it shall be thy part.
27 And thou shalt set apart the breast of the waved offering and the shoulder of the sanctification, that which was waved and that which was sanctified of the ram of the consecrations of Aaron and of his sons;
28 and it shall be for Aaron and for his sons by a perpetual statute of the sons of Israel, for it is something set apart, and it shall be set apart of the sons of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace offerings; it shall be something of theirs set apart unto the Lord.
29 And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons’ after him, to be anointed with them and to be consecrated with them.
30 And for seven days the priest of his sons, who in his stead shall come into the tabernacle of the testimony, shall put them on to serve in the sanctuary.
31 And thou shalt take the ram of the consecrations and cook his flesh in the holy place.
32 And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket by the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
33 And they shall eat those things with which they were reconciled, to fill their hands to be sanctified; but a stranger shall not eat thereof because they are holiness.
34 And if any of the flesh of the consecrations or of the bread remains unto the morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire; it shall not be eaten, because it is holiness.
35 And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron and to his sons, according to all the things which I have commanded thee; for seven days shalt thou consecrate them.
36 And thou shalt sacrifice a bullock every day for reconciliation of sin; and thou shalt remove the sin from the altar, and thou shalt anoint it to sanctify it.
37 For seven days thou shalt reconcile the altar and sanctify it; and it shall be a most holy altar; whatever touches the altar shall be made holy.
38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar: two lambs of the first year every day continually.
39 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning, and the other lamb thou shalt offer at evening.
40 Moreover a tenth ephah of flour mingled with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil and the fourth part of a hin of wine with each lamb.
41 And thou shalt offer the other lamb at evening, doing according to the present of the morning and according to its drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering on fire unto the Lord.
42 This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your ages at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord, where I will concert with you, to speak there unto you.
43 And there I will testify of myself unto the sons of Israel, and the place shall be sanctified with my glory.
44 And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar; I will likewise sanctify both Aaron and his sons that they may be my priests.
45 And I will dwell among the sons of Israel and shall be their God.
46And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them; I am the Lord your God.

Exodus 30 (JUB)

1 In the same manner thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon; of cedar wood shalt thou make it.
2 Its length shall be a cubit and its width a cubit; it shall be square and its height two cubits; its horns shall be of the same.
3 And thou shalt cover it with pure gold, its top and its sides round about, and its horns; and thou shalt make unto it a moulding of gold round about.
4 And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under its moulding by its two corners on both sides for places for the staves to bear it with.
5 And thou shalt make the staves of cedar wood and cover them with gold.
6 And thou shalt put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the seat of reconciliation that is over the testimony, where I will testify unto thee of myself.
7 And Aaron shall burn sweet incense thereon every morning; when he dresses the lamps, he shall burn it.
8 And when Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn incense upon it continually before the Lord throughout your ages.
9 Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon nor burnt sacrifice nor present; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.
10 And Aaron shall make reconciliation upon the horns of it once a year with the blood of the reconciliation for sin; once a year shall he make reconciliation upon it throughout your ages; it shall be most holy unto the Lord.
11 ¶ And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
12 When thou takest the number of the sons of Israel after the sum of them, each one shall give a ransom for his soul unto the Lord, when thou dost number them, that there be no mortality in them because of numbering them.
13 This shall be given by every one that passes among those that are numbered: half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary (a shekel is twenty gerahs); a half shekel shall be the offering to the Lord.
14 Anyone that passes among those that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give the offering unto the Lord.
15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give the offering unto the Lord to make reconciliation for your souls.
16 And thou shalt take the reconciliation money of the sons of Israel and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the testimony, and it shall be a memorial unto the sons of Israel before the Lord to reconcile your souls.
17 And the Lord spoke further unto Moses, saying,
18 Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and its base also of brass, to wash with; and thou shalt place it between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar, and thou shalt put water in it.
19 And from it Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet.
20 When they go into the tabernacle of the testimony, they shall wash with water that they not die, or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn the offering unto the Lord that must be consumed by fire,
21 they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die. And he and his seed shall have it as a perpetual statute throughout their generations.
22 The Lord spoke further unto Moses, saying,
23 Thou must take unto thee of the principal spices: of excellent myrrh five hundred shekels and of aromatic cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of aromatic calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,
24 and of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive one hin;
25 and thou shalt make of it the oil of the holy anointing, a superior ointment, after the art of the apothecary, which shall be the oil of the holy anointing.
26 And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the testimony with it and the ark of the testimony
27 and the table and all its vessels and the lampstand and its vessels and the altar of incense
28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels and the laver and its base.
29 Thus thou shalt consecrate them, and they shall be most holy; whatever touches them shall be sanctified.
30 And thou shalt also anoint Aaron and his sons and sanctify them that they may be my priests.
31 And thou shalt speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, This shall be my oil of the holy anointing throughout your ages.
32 It shall not be poured upon man’s flesh; neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of it; it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.
33 Whoever compounds any like it and puts any of it upon a stranger shall be cut off from his people.
34 And the Lord said unto Moses, Take unto thee aromas, stacte and onycha and aromatic galbanum and pure frankincense, of each in equal weight.
35 And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy;
36 and thou shalt beat some of it very small and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the testimony, where I will testify unto thee of myself. It shall be most holy unto you.
37 And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves another according to the composition thereof: it shall be holiness unto thee for the Lord.
38 Whoever shall make another like unto that to smell it shall be cut off from his people.

Exodus Chapter 24 (JUB)

1 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the Lord, thou and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship afar off.

2 And Moses alone shall approach the Lord, but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.

3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord and all the rights, and all the people answered with one voice and said, All the words which the Lord has said we will do.

4 And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord and rose up early in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the mount and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 And he sent the young men of the sons of Israel, who had offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of bullocks unto the Lord.

6 And Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

7 And he took the book of the covenant and read in the audience of the people, and they said, All that the Lord has said we will do, and we will hear.

8 Then Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.

9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel went up,

10 and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone like unto the heaven when it is clear.

11 But he did not lay his hand upon the princes of the sons of Israel, and they saw God and ate and drank.

12 Then the Lord said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount and wait there, and I will give thee tables of stone and the law and commandments which I have written to teach them.

13 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua, and Moses went up into the mount of God.

14 And he said unto the elders, wait here for us until we come again unto you; and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; if anyone has any matters to settle, let him come unto them.

15 Then Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.

16 And the glory of the Lord abode upon Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days, and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

17 And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the sons of Israel.

18 And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mount, and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

Exodus Chapter 25 (JUB)

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel that they bring me an offering; of every man that gives it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
3 And this shall be the offering which ye shall take of them: gold and silver and brass
4 and blue and purple and scarlet and fine linen and goats’ hair
5 and rams’ skins dyed red and badgers’ skins and cedar wood,
6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense,
7 onyx stones and stones to be set in the ephod and in the pectoral.
8 And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.
9 According to all that I show thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its vessels, even so shall ye make it.
10 And they shall make an ark of cedar wood; two cubits and a half shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.
11 And thou shalt cover it with pure gold; within and without shalt thou cover it and shalt make upon it a moulding of gold round about.
12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it and put them in the four corners thereof, and two rings shall be in the one side of it and two rings in the other side of it.
13 And thou shalt make staves of cedar wood and overlay them with gold.
14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it.
16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
17 And thou shalt make a seat of reconciliation of pure gold; two cubits and a half shall be its length and a cubit and a half its breadth.
18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the seat of reconciliation.
19 And make one cherub on the one end and the other cherub on the other end: even of the seat of reconciliation shall ye make the cherubim on the two ends thereof.
20 And the cherubim shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the seat of reconciliation with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the seat of reconciliation shall the faces of the cherubim be.
21 And thou shalt put the seat of reconciliation above upon the ark, and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will speak with thee from above the seat of reconciliation, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the sons of Israel.
23 Thou shalt likewise make a table of cedar wood; two cubits shall be its length and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.
24 And thou shalt cover it with pure gold and make a moulding of gold round about it.
25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of a handbreadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden moulding to its border round about.
26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
27 Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the table.
28 And thou shalt make the staves of cedar wood and cover them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof and spoons thereof and covers thereof and bowls thereof to cover the bread; of pure gold shalt thou make them.
30 And thou shalt set the showbread upon the table before me always.
31 And thou shalt make a lampstand of pure gold; of beaten work shall the lampstand be made; its base and its branches, its bowls, its knops, and its flowers shall be of the same.
32 And six branches shall come out of the sides of it, three branches of the lampstand out of the one side and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side,
33 three bowls made like unto almonds with a knop and a flower in one branch, and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch with a knop and a flower; thus in the six branches that come out of the lampstand.
34 And in the lampstand shall be four bowls made like unto almonds with their knops and their flowers.
35 And there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, and another knop under two branches of the same, and another knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that proceed out of the lampstand.
36 Their knops and their branches shall be of the same; all of it shall be one beaten work of pure gold.
37 And thou shalt make its seven lamps; and they shall light its lamps, that they may give light over against it.
38 And its tongs, and its snuffdishes, shall be of pure gold.
39 Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels.
40 And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was showed thee in the mount.

Exodus Chapter 26 (JUB)

1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet; with cherubim of cunning work shalt thou make them.
2 The length of one curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; and all the curtains shall have one measure.
3 The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled one to another.
4 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the border in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain in the coupling of the second.
5 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in the border of the curtain that is in the second coupling; that the loops may take hold one of another.
6 And thou shalt make fifty hooks of gold and couple the curtains together with the hooks; and it shall be one tabernacle.
7 Likewise thou shalt make curtains of goats’ hair to be a covering over the tabernacle; eleven curtains shalt thou make.
8 The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure.
9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle.
10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain from the border in the coupling and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which couples the second.
11 And thou shalt make fifty hooks of brass and put the hooks into the loops and couple the tent together that it may be one.
12 And the remnant that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle.
13 And a cubit on the one side and a cubit on the other side of that which remains in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.
14 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red and a covering above of badgers’ skins.
15 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of cedar wood standing up.
16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.
17 Two tenons shall there be in one board, set in order one against another; thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
18 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the side of the Negev to the south.
19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards, two sockets under one board for its two tenons and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
20 And for the second side of the tabernacle on the side of the Aquilon, {of the north wind} there shall be twenty boards
21 and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board and two sockets under another board.
22 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward, thou shalt make six boards.
23And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides,
24 and they shall be coupled together beneath, and they shall be coupled together above the head of it unto one ring; thus shall it be for them both; they shall be for the two corners.
25 Thus they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets: two sockets under one board and two sockets under another board.
26 And thou shalt make five bars of cedar wood for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
27 five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward.
28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end.
29 And thou shalt cover the boards with gold and make their rings of gold for places for the bars, and thou shalt also cover the bars with gold.
30 And thou shalt raise up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was showed thee in the mount.
31 And thou shalt also make a veil of blue, purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work; with cherubim shall it be made;
32 and thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of cedar covered with gold; their capitals shall be of gold upon four sockets of silver.
33 And thou shalt hang up the veil under the hooks, and thou shalt bring in there, inside the veil, the ark of the testimony; and that veil shall separate for you between the holy place and the holy of holies.
34 And thou shalt put the seat of reconciliation upon the ark of the testimony in the holy of holies.
35 And thou shalt set the table outside the veil, the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the Negev (south desert), and thou shalt put the table on the side of the Aquilon (north wind).
36 And thou shalt make a hanging for the door of the tabernacle of blue, purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen wrought with needlework.
37 And thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of cedar and cover them with gold, and their capitals shall be of gold, and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them.

Exodus Chapter 23 (JUB)

1 Thou shalt not admit a false rumour; put not thine hand with the wicked to be a false witness.
2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause hiding behind many to wrest judgment;
3 neither shalt thou honour a poor man in his cause.
4 If thou should encounter thine enemy’s ox or his ass astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.
5 If thou see the ass of him that hates thee lying under his burden, will thou forbear to help him? Thou shalt surely help him to raise it up.
6 Thou shalt not pervert the rights of thy poor in his cause.
7 Keep thee far from a false matter; and slay thou not the innocent and righteous; for I will not justify the wicked.
8 And thou shalt take no bribe; for the bribe blinds the wise and perverts the words of the righteous.
9 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger, for ye know the state of the soul of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
10 And six years thou shalt sow thy land and shalt gather in its increase,
11 but the seventh year thou shalt leave it free and release it, that the poor of thy people may eat, and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard and with thy oliveyard.
12 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest, that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid and the stranger may be refreshed.
13 And in all things that I have said unto you, be circumspect and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.
14 Three times thou shalt celebrate a feast unto me in the year:
15 Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib, for in it thou didst come out from Egypt; and none shall appear before me empty),
16 And the feast of the harvest of the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou hast sown in the field, and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.
17 Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the Lord GOD.
18 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my lamb remain until the morning.
19 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in his mother’s milk.
20 Behold, I send the Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.
21 Keep thyself before him and hear his voice, grieve him not; for he will not pardon your rebellion, for my name is in him.
22 But if thou shalt indeed hear his voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies and an adversary unto those that afflict thee.
23 For my Angel shall go before thee and bring thee in unto the land of the Amorite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Canaanite the Hivite and the Jebusite; and I will cut them off.
24Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works; but thou shalt utterly overthrow them and completely break down their images.
25But ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread and thy water; and I will take all sickness away from the midst of thee.
26No women shall abort, nor be barren, in thy land; the number of thy days I will fulfil.
27I will send my fear before thee and will trouble all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee.
28And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before thee.
29I will not drive them out from before thee in one year lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field multiply against thee.
30Little by little I will drive them out from before thee until thou be multiplied and take the land by inheritance.
31And I will set thy borders from the Red Sea even unto the sea of the Philistines and from the desert unto the river; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and thou shalt drive them out before thee.
32Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
33They shall not dwell in thy land lest peradventure they make thee sin against me by serving their gods, for it will be a snare unto thee.

Exodus Chapter 24 (JUB)

1 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the Lord, thou and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship afar off.
2 And Moses alone shall approach the Lord, but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.
3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord and all the rights, and all the people answered with one voice and said, All the words which the Lord has said we will do.
4 And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord and rose up early in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the mount and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 And he sent the young men of the sons of Israel, who had offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of bullocks unto the Lord.
6 And Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 And he took the book of the covenant and read in the audience of the people, and they said, All that the Lord has said we will do, and we will hear.
8 Then Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.
9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel went up,
10 and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone like unto the heaven when it is clear.
11 But he did not lay his hand upon the princes of the sons of Israel, and they saw God and ate and drank.
12 Then the Lord said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount and wait there, and I will give thee tables of stone and the law and commandments which I have written to teach them.
13 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua, and Moses went up into the mount of God.
14 And he said unto the elders, wait here for us until we come again unto you; and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; if anyone has any matters to settle, let him come unto them.
15 Then Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
16 And the glory of the Lord abode upon Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days, and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17 And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the sons of Israel.
18 And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mount, and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

Exodus Chapter 20

1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt out of the house of slavery.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above or that is in the earth beneath nor that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down to them nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons unto the third and fourth generation of those that hate me
6 and showing mercy unto thousands of generations of those that love me and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain for the Lord will not hold guiltless anyone that takes his name in vain.
8 Thou shalt remember the sabbath day, to sanctify it.
9 Six days shalt thou labour and do all thy work;
10 but the seventh day shall be the sabbath of the Lord thy God; in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manslave, nor thy maidslave, nor thy beast, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates;
11 for in six days the Lord made the heavens and earth, the sea, and all that is in them and rested the seventh day; therefore, the Lord blessed the sabbath day and sanctified it.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother that thy days may be lengthened upon the land which the Lord thy God gives thee.
13 Thou shalt not murder.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not give false testimony against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manslave, nor his maidslave, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
18 And all the people saw the thunderings and the lightnings and the noise of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood afar off.
19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us lest we die.
20 Then Moses said unto the people, Fear not, for God is come to prove you and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
21 Then the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.
22 And the Lord said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the sons of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23 Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.
24 An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings and thy peace offerings, thy sheep and thine oxen; in whatever place where I cause my name to be remembered, I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.
25 And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone; for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.
26 Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto my altar that thy nakedness not be discovered thereon.

Exodus Chapter 21

1 Now these are the rights which thou shalt set before them.
2 If thou should buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve six years; and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself; if he was married, then his wife shall go out with him.
4 If his master has given him a wife, and she has born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself.
5 And if the slave shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free.
6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him forever.
7 And if a man should sell his daughter to be a maidslave, she shall not go out as the menslaves do.
8 If she pleases not her master, who therefore took her not unto himself to wife, then it is permitted that she be ransomed; and he may not sell her unto a strange nation when he rejects her.
9 And if he has betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
10 If he takes another wife, her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, he shall not diminish.
11 And if he does not do these three things unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
12 He that smites a man so that he dies shall be surely put to death.
13 And if a man did not lie in wait but God delivered him into his hand, then I will appoint thee a place where he shall flee.
14 But if a man comes presumptuously upon his neighbour to slay him with prudence, thou shalt take him from my altar that he may die.
15 And he that smites his father or his mother shall be surely put to death.
16 Likewise he that steals a man and sells him, or if he is found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
17 In the same manner he that curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.
18 And if men strive together and one smites another with a stone or with his fist and he dies not, but keeps his bed,
19 if he rises again and walks abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote him be absolved, only he shall pay for the loss of his time and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
20 And if a man smites his slave or his maid with a rod and he dies under his hand, he shall be surely punished.
21 Notwithstanding, if he continues a day or two, he shall not be punished, for he is his money.
22 If men strive and hurt a woman with child so that she aborts but without death, he shall be surely punished according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him, and he shall pay by the judges.
23 And if there is death, then thou shalt pay life for life,
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25 burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
26 And if someone smites the eye of their slave or the eye of their maid that it perishes, he shall let them go free for their eye’s sake.
27 And if he smites out his manslave’s tooth or his maidslave’s tooth, he shall let them go free for their tooth’s sake.
28 If an ox gores a man or a woman that they die, then the ox shall surely be stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be absolved.
29 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past and it has been testified to his owner, and he has not kept him in, but that he has killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
30 If there is laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatever is laid upon him.
31 Whether it has gored a son or has gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
32 If the ox shall gore a manslave or a maidslave, he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
33 And if someone shall open a pit or if someone shall dig a pit and not cover it and an ox or an ass falls in it,
34 the owner of the pit shall make it good and give money unto their owner, and the dead beast shall be his.
35 And if one man’s ox hurts another’s that he dies; then they shall sell the live ox and divide the money of it, and the dead ox they shall also divide.
36 Or if it is known that the ox used to push in time past and his owner has not kept him in, he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead shall be his own.

Exodus Chapter 22

1 If a man shall steal an ox or a sheep and kill it or sell it he shall restore five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.
2 If a thief is found breaking into a house and is smitten so he dies, he that killed him shall not be guilty of his blood.
3 If the sun is risen upon him, he that killed him is guilty of his blood; the thief should make full restitution; if he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4 If he is found with the theft in his hand, whether it be ox or ass or sheep, he shall restore double.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten and shall put in his beast and shall feed in another man’s field; of the best of his own field and of the best of his own vineyard shall he make restitution.
6 When fires are lit and in burning the thorns burn also the stacks of sheaves or the standing grain, or the field is consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
7 When a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it is stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief is found, let him pay double.
8 If the thief is not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges to see whether he has put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods.
9 For all manner of fraud, whether it be for an ox, for an ass, for a sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challenges to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
10 If a man delivers unto his neighbour an ass or an ox or a sheep or any beast to keep, and it dies or is hurt or driven away, no man seeing it,
11 then shall an oath of the Lord be between them both, that he has not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods, and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
12 And if it is stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto its owner.
13I f it is torn in pieces, then let him bring witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
14 And if anyone borrows anything of his neighbour, and it is hurt or dies, its owner not being with it, he shall surely make it good.
15 But if its owner is with it, he shall not make it good; if it was hired, it came for its hire.
16 If a man should entice a virgin that is not betrothed and lie with her, he shall surely endow her and take her to be his wife.
17 If her father utterly refuses to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
19 Whoever lies with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 He that sacrifices unto any god, except unto the Lord only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
21 Thou shalt neither mistreat a stranger nor oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow or fatherless child.
23 If thou afflict them in any manner, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
24 and my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 If thou should lend money to my people, to the poor who is with thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
26 If thou at all take thy neighbour’s clothing as a pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him before the sun goes down;
27 for only that is his covering, it is his clothing to cover his flesh, in which he must sleep; and it shall come to pass, when he cries unto me, that I will hear, for I am merciful.
28 Thou shalt not revile the judges nor curse the prince of thy people.
29 Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits and of thy liquors; the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen and with thy sheep; seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.
31 And ye shall be holy men unto me; neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.

Exodus 17 (JUB)

1 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the Lord, and set up camp in Rephidim; and there was no water for the people to drink.
2 And the people chided with Moses and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? Why do ye tempt the Lord?
3 So the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses and said, Why hast thou brought us up out of Egypt to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?
4 Then Moses cried unto the Lord, saying, What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me.
5 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go on before the people and take with thee of the elders of Israel and thy rod, with which thou didst smite the river take in thine hand and go.
6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb, and thou shalt smite the rock, and water shall come out of it that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7 And he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah because of the chiding of the sons of Israel and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us, or not?
8 Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9 And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.
10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; but when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12 And Moses’ hands were heavy, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat upon it; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side and the other on the other side; thus his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
13 And Joshua disabled Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in the book and tell Joshua that I must utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
15 And Moses built an altar and called the name of it The Lord is my Banner, {YHWH-nissi}
16 for he said, Because Amalek lifted his hand against the throne of the Lord, the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.

Exodus 18 (JUB)

1 When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father-in-law, heard of all that God had done with Moses and with Israel his people and how the Lord had brought Israel out of Egypt,
2 then Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took Zipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her back,
3 and her two sons, of which the name of the one was Gershon, for he said, I have been an alien in a strange land,
4 and the name of the other was Eliezer, for the God of my father, said he, helped me and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh;
5 and Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into the wilderness, where he was camped next to the mount of God;
6 and he said unto Moses, I, thy father-in-law Jethro, am come unto thee and thy wife and her two sons with her.
7 And Moses went out to meet his father-in-law and did obeisance and kissed him; and they asked each other of their peace; and they came into the tent.
8 And Moses told his father-in-law all that the Lord had done unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake and all the travail that had come upon them in the way and how the Lord delivered them.
9 And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the Lord had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians.
10 And Jethro said, Blessed be the Lord, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
11 Now I know that the Lord is greater than all gods; for in the thing in which they dealt proudly he prevailed against them.
12 And Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, took burnt offerings and sacrifices for God; and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father-in-law before God.
13 And it came to pass another day that Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood before Moses from the morning unto the evening.
14 And when Moses’ father-in-law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this that thou doest to the people? Why sittest thou thyself alone and all the people stand before thee from morning unto evening?
15 And Moses said unto his father-in-law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God.
16 When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I declare unto them the statutes of God and his laws.
17 Then Moses’ father-in-law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
18 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou and this people that is with thee; for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.
19 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people before God that thou may submit the causes unto God.
20 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws and shalt show them the way in which they must walk and the work that they must do.
21 Moreover thou shalt consider out of all the people men of virtue, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness, and place princes over them, of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.
22 And let them judge the people at all seasons; and it shall be that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge, so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.
23 If thou shalt do this thing and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.
24 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said.
25 And Moses chose men of virtue out of all Israel and made them heads over the people, princes over thousands, over hundreds, over fifties, and over tens.
26 And they judged the people at all seasons; the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.
27 And Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went to his own land.

Exodus 15 (JUB)

1 Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song unto the Lord and spoke, saying, I will sing unto the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
2 The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my saving health; he is my God, and I will prepare him a habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3 The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is his name.
4 Pharaoh’s chariots and his host he has cast into the sea; his chosen princes also are drowned in the Red Sea.
5 The depths have covered them; they sank into the bottom as a stone.
6 Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power; thy right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.
7 And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown those that rose up against thee; thou didst send forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
8 And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as a heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my soul shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them. They sank as lead in the mighty waters.
11 Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like thee, magnificent in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 Thou didst stretch out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed; thou hast guided them in thy strength unto the habitation of thy holiness.
14 The peoples shall hear and be afraid; sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling, shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone, until thy people pass over, O Lord, until the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
17 Thou shalt bring them in and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place of thy dwelling which thou hast made ready, O Lord, in the Sanctuary of the Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.
19 For Pharaoh went in on horseback with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the sons of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
20 And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness and found no water.
23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; therefore the name of it was called Marah.
24 Then the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 And he cried unto the Lord; and the Lord showed him a tree, which when he had cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. There he gave them statutes and rights, and there he proved them
26 and said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God and wilt do that which is right in his sight and wilt give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians; for I am the Lord thy Healer.
27 And they came to Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water and seventy palm trees; and they encamped there by the waters.

Exodus 16 (JUB)

1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the sons of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.
2 And the whole congregation of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness;
3 and the sons of Israel said unto them, It would have been better if we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots and when we ate bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.
4 Then the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather the word for every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or not.
5 And it shall come to pass that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in, which shall be twice as much as they gather daily.
6 Then Moses and Aaron said unto all the sons of Israel, At evening ye shall know that the Lord has brought you out from the land of Egypt;
7 And in the morning ye shall see the glory of the Lord; for he has heard your murmurings against the Lord; and what are we, that ye murmur against us?
8 And Moses said, This shall be when the Lord shall give you in the evening flesh to eat and in the morning bread to the full; for the Lord has heard your murmurings which ye have murmured against him; and what are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against the Lord.
9 And Moses spoke unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the sons of Israel, Come near before the Lord, for he has heard your murmurings.
10 And it came to pass as Aaron spoke unto the whole congregation of the sons of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud.
11 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
12 I have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel; speak unto them, saying, Between the two evenings ye shall eat flesh, and tomorrow ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God.
13 And it came to pass, that in the evening quail came up, and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew descended round about the host.
14 And when the dew ceased to descend, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
15 And when the sons of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna (What is it?): for they did not know what it was. Then Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord has given you to eat.
16 This is the thing which the Lord has commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for each one, according to the number of your persons; take ye each one for those who are in his tent.
17 And the sons of Israel did so and gathered, some more, some less.
18 And when they did measure it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered each one according to his eating.
19 And Moses said, Let no one leave of it until the morning.
20 Notwithstanding they did not hearken unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms and stank; and Moses was angry with them.
21 And they gathered it early in the morning, each one according to his eating; and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.
22 And it came to pass that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one; and all the princes of the congregation came and told Moses.
23 And he said unto them, This is what the Lord has said, Tomorrow is the holy sabbath of rest unto the Lord; bake that which ye will bake today and cook what ye will cook; and that which remains over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
24 And they laid it up until the morning as Moses bade; and it did not stink, neither was there any worm in it.
25 And Moses said, Eat that today; for today is a sabbath unto the Lord; today ye shall not find it in the field.
26 Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.
27 And it came to pass that some of the people went out on the seventh day to gather, and they found none.
28 And the Lord said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?
29 See that the Lord has given you the sabbath; therefore, he gives you the bread of two days on the sixth day; abide ye every man in his place; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
30 So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 And the house of Israel called its name Manna; and it was like coriander seed, white, and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.
32 And Moses said, This is what the Lord has commanded, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your descendants, that they may see the bread with which I have fed you in the wilderness when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.
33 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot and put an omer full of manna in it and lay it up before the Lord, to be kept for your descendants.
34 As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
35 Thus the sons of Israel ate manna forty years until they came to a land inhabited; they ate manna until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.

Exodus 17 (JUB)

1 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the Lord, and set up camp in Rephidim; and there was no water for the people to drink.
2 And the people chided with Moses and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? Why do ye tempt the Lord?
3 So the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses and said, Why hast thou brought us up out of Egypt to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?
4 Then Moses cried unto the Lord, saying, What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me.
5 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go on before the people and take with thee of the elders of Israel and thy rod, with which thou didst smite the river take in thine hand and go.
6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb, and thou shalt smite the rock, and water shall come out of it that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7 And he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah because of the chiding of the sons of Israel and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us, or not?
8 Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9 And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.
10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; but when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12 And Moses’ hands were heavy, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat upon it; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side and the other on the other side; thus his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
13 And Joshua disabled Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in the book and tell Joshua that I must utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
15 And Moses built an altar and called the name of it The Lord is my Banner, {YHWH-nissi}
16 for he said, Because Amalek lifted his hand against the throne of the Lord, the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.

Exodus 14 (JUB)

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel that they turn and set up their camp before Pihahiroth between Migdol and the sea over against Baalzephon; before it shall ye set up camp by the sea.
3 For Pharaoh will say of the sons of Israel, They are entangled in the land; the wilderness has shut them in.
4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart that he shall follow after them; and I will be glorified in Pharaoh and in all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord. And they did so.
5 And it was told the king of Egypt how the people fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his slaves was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
6 And he made ready his chariot and took his people with him;
7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots and all the chariots of Egypt and the captains over them.
8 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he pursued after the sons of Israel, but the sons of Israel had already left with great power.
9 The Egyptians, nevertheless, pursued after them with all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and all his army, and overtook them setting up camp by the sea beside Pihahiroth before Baalzephon.
10 And when Pharaoh drew near, the sons of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they feared greatly, and the sons of Israel cried out unto the Lord.
11 And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why hast thou dealt thus with us, to bring us forth out of Egypt?
12 Is this not what we told thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone that we may serve the Egyptians? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than that we should die in the wilderness.
13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still and see the saving health of the Lord, which he will bestow on you today; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen today, ye shall never see them again for ever.
14 The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall be still.
15 Then the Lord said unto Moses, Why criest thou unto me? Speak unto the sons of Israel that they go forward:
16 And lift up thy rod and stretch out thy hand over the sea and divide it; and the sons of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
17 And behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians that they shall follow them: and I will be glorified in Pharaoh and in all his host, in his chariots, and in his horsemen.
18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have glorified myself in Pharaoh, in his chariots, and in his horsemen.
19 And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and likewise the pillar of cloud went from before their face and stood behind them.
20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it lit up the night unto Israel; and all that night the one side never came near the other.
21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
22 Then the sons of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand and on their left.
23 And the Egyptians pursued and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 And it came to pass that in the morning watch the Lord looked at the camp of the Egyptians in the pillar of fire and of cloud and troubled the camp of the Egyptians
25 and took off their chariot wheels and overturned them grievously, so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the Lord fights for them against the Egyptians.
26 And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned in its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.
29 But the sons of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand and on their left.
30 Thus the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.
31 And Israel saw that great work which the Lord did against the Egyptians; and the people feared the Lord and believed the Lord and his slave Moses.
