M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan
13 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or bright spot, and it is in the skin of his flesh like the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought unto Aaron, the priest, or unto one of his sons, the priests,
3 and the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh, and if the hair in the plague is turned white and the plague looks deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy; and the priest shall recognize him and pronounce him unclean.
4 If the bright spot is white in the skin of his flesh and looks to be not deeper than the skin and the hair thereof is not turned white; then the priest shall shut up the one that has the plague seven days;
5 and the priest shall look on him the seventh day and see if the plague in his sight is stayed and the plague is not spread in the skin, then the priest shall shut him up seven days the second time.
6 After this the priest shall look on him again the seventh day and see if the plague has darkened and that the plague is not spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; it is but a scab, and he shall wash his clothes and be clean.
7 But if the scab spreads much abroad in the skin after he has been shown unto the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again;
8 and if the priest recognizes that the scab has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is leprosy.
9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the priest;
10 and the priest shall see him; and if the rising looks white in the skin and it has turned the hair white and there is quick raw flesh in the rising,
11 it is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean and shall not shut him up, for he is unclean.
12 But if the leprosy breaks out abroad in the skin and the leprosy covers all the skin of him that has the plague from his head even to his feet wherever the priest looks,
13 then the priest shall consider; and if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce the one that has the plague clean; it is all turned white; he is clean.
14 But the day that raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh and pronounce him to be unclean, for the raw flesh is unclean: it is leprosy.
16 But when the raw flesh turns again and is changed unto white, he shall come unto the priest;
17 and the priest shall see him; and if the plague is turned white; then the priest shall pronounce the one that has the plague clean, and he shall be clean.
18 ¶ And when in the flesh, in the skin thereof, there was a boil and is healed,
19 and in the place of the boil there is a white rising or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, it shall be shown to the priest;
20 and the priest shall look, and if it appears to be lower than the skin and the hair thereof is turned white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a plague of leprosy broken out of the boil.
21 But if the priest considers it and there appear to be no white hairs in it and it is not lower than the skin, but somewhat dark, then the priest shall shut him up seven days;
22 and if it spreads much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
23 But if the bright spot stays in its place and does not spread, it is the scab of a boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
24 Likewise when the flesh has in its skin a burn from fire, and in the place healed from the burn there a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white,
25 then the priest shall look upon it; and if the hair in the bright spot is turned white and it looks deeper than the skin, it is a leprosy broken out of the burn; and the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is the plague of leprosy.
26 But if the priest looks on it and there is no white hair in the bright spot and it is no lower than the other skin, but dark, then the priest shall shut him up seven days;
27 and the priest shall recognize it the seventh day; and if it is spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is the plague of leprosy.
28 And if the bright spot stays in its place and has not spread in the skin, but it is dark, it is a rising of the burn; and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is an inflammation of the burn.
29 If a man or woman has a plague upon the head or the beard,
30 then the priest shall see the plague; and if it looks deeper than the skin and the hair in it is yellowish and thin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a dry scall, leprosy of the head or beard.
31 But when the priest looks on the plague of the scall and if it does not look deeper than the skin and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall shut up the one that has the plague of the scall seven days;
32 and in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague; and if the scall appears not to have spread and there is no yellowish hair in it and the scall appears not to be deeper than the skin,
33 he shall be shaven, but the place of the scall he shall not shave; and the priest shall shut up the one that has the scall for seven days the second time.
34 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall; and if the scall is not spread in the skin nor in appearance deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; and he shall wash his clothes and be clean.
35 But if the scall spreads much in the skin after his cleansing,
36 then the priest shall look at it; and if the scall is spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellowish hair; he is unclean.
37 But if the scall appears to him to be stayed and there is black hair grown up in it, the scall is healed; he is clean; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
38 ¶ Likewise if a man or a woman has in the skin of their flesh bright spots, even white bright spots,
39 the priest shall look; and if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh are darkish white, it is a freckled spot that grew in the skin; the person is clean.
40 And the man whose hair has fallen off his head is bald; yet he is clean.
41 And if his hair has fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald; yet is he clean.
42 But if in the bald head, or bald forehead, there is a white reddish sore, it is a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
43 Then the priest shall look upon it; and if the rising of the sore is white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh,
44 he is a leprous man, he is unclean; the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is in his head.
45 And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall be rent and his head uncovered, and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
46 All the days in which the plague shall be in him he shall be defiled; he shall be unclean; he shall dwell alone; outside the camp shall his habitation be.
47 ¶ The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment or a linen garment;
48 whether it is in the warp or woof; of linen or of woolen; whether in a skin or in anything made of skin;
49 and if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment or in the skin, either in the warp or in the woof or in any thing of skin, it is a plague of leprosy and shall be shown unto the priest.
50 And the priest shall look upon the plague and shut up the thing that has the plague seven days.
51 And he shall look on the plague on the seventh day; if the plague is spread in the garment, either in the warp or in the woof or in a skin or in any work that is made of skins; the plague is a fretting leprosy; it is unclean.
52 He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in woolen or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is; for it is a fretting leprosy; it shall be burnt in the fire.
53 And if the priest shall look and it appears that the plague has not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin,
54 then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall shut it up again for seven days.
55 And the priest shall look on it after the plague has been washed; and if it appears that the plague has not changed its colour, even if the plague is not spread, it is unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether the bare spot is within or without.
56 And if the priest looks and the plague appears to be darker after the washing of it, then he shall cut it out of the garment or out of the skin or out of the warp or out of the woof.
57 And if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp or in the woof or in anything of skin, springing up again in it, thou shalt burn whatever the plague is in with fire.
58 But the garment, either warp or woof or whatever thing of skin which thou shalt wash and from which the plague is removed, shall be washed the second time, and then it shall be clean.
59 This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woolen or linen, either in the warp or woof or anything of skins, to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean.
A Psalm of David.
1 ¶ LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in the mountain of thy holiness?
2 He that walks in integrity and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.
3 He that does not backbite with his tongue nor does evil to his neighbour nor takes up a reproach against his neighbour.
4 In whose eyes the vile person is not esteemed; but he honours those that fear the LORD. He that swears to his own hurt and does not change.
5 He that does not put out his money to usury nor takes a bribe against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
Michtam of David.
1 ¶ Preserve me, O God: for in thee I have put my trust.
2 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my goodness: I have no goodness apart from thee;
3 to the saints that are in the earth and to the excellent: all my delight is towards them.
4 The sorrows of those that hasten after another god shall be multiplied; their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; thou dost maintain my lot.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7 I will bless the LORD, who gives me counsel: my kidneys also instruct me in the night seasons.
8 ¶ I have set the LORD always before me: because when he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices: my flesh also shall rest secure.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in Sheol; neither wilt thou suffer thy Merciful One to see corruption.
11 Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; in thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
27 ¶ Boast not thyself of tomorrow for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
2 ¶ Let another man praise thee and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
3 ¶ A stone is heavy and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath is heavier than them both.
4 Wrath is cruel, and anger is impetuous, but who is able to stand before envy?
5 ¶ Open rebuke is better than secret love.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
7 ¶ The full soul loathes a honeycomb, but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
8 ¶ As a bird that wanders from her nest, so is a man that wanders from his place.
9 ¶ Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart, so does the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.
10 Do not forsake thine own friend and thy father’s friend, neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity, for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
11 ¶ My son, be wise and make my heart glad that I may answer him that reproaches me.
12 ¶ A prudent man foresees the evil and hides himself, but the simple pass on and are hurt by it.
13 ¶ Take his garment that is surety for a stranger and take a pledge of him that is surety for a strange woman.
14 ¶ He that blesses his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
15 ¶ A continual dripping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
16 Whosoever hides her hides the wind, because the oil in his right hand cries out.
17 ¶ Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.
18 ¶ Whosoever keeps the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof, so he that waits on his master shall be honoured.
19 ¶ As in water face corresponds to face, so the heart of man to man.
20 ¶ Sheol and hell are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
21 ¶ As the fining pot tries the silver and the furnace the gold; so the man is tried by the mouth of whoever praises him.
22 ¶ Though thou should bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet his foolishness will not depart from him.
23 ¶ Be thou diligent to know the countenance of thy sheep, and put thy heart into thy herds.
24 For riches are not for ever, and does the crown endure to every generation?
25 The tender grass shows itself, and the hay appears, and the herbs of the mountains are reaped.
26 The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are for the price of the field.
27 And thou shalt have goats’ milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance of thy maidens.
1 ¶ Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, unto the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} of the Thessalonians in God our Father and in our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 Grace unto you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 We must thank God always for you, brethren, as is due because your faith grows exceedingly, and the charity of each and every one of you toward each other abounds,
4 so that we ourselves glory in you in the congregations {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure and
5 ¶ in testimony of the just judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer,
6 seeing it is a just thing with God to recompense tribulation to those that trouble you
7 and to give you, who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with the angels of his power,
8 with flaming fire, to take vengeance on those that do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ,
9 who shall be punished with eternal destruction by the presence of the Lord and by the glory of his power,
10 when he shall come to be glorified in his saints and to be admired in all those that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
11 ¶ Therefore in this manner we pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of his calling and fill each will with goodness and the work of faith with power
12 that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be clarified in you, and ye in him, by the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
