17 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons and unto all the sons of Israel and say unto them: This is what the LORD has commanded, saying,
3 any man of the house of Israel that kills an ox or lamb or goat in the camp or that kills it out of the camp
4 and does not bring it unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony to offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD, blood shall be imputed unto that man; he has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people:
5 to the end that the sons of Israel may bring their sacrifices which they sacrifice in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, unto the priest and sacrifice sacrifices of peace unto the LORD.
6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony and incense the fat in a very acceptable aroma unto the LORD.
7 And they shall never again offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they fornicate. They shall have this as a perpetual statute throughout their ages.
8 And thou shalt also say unto them: Any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers who sojourn among you that offers a burnt offering or sacrifice
9 and does not bring it unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony to offer it unto the LORD, even that man shall be cut off from among his people.
10 ¶ And any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers that sojourn among you that eats any blood at all, I will set my face against that person that eats blood and will cut them off from among his people.
11 For the soul (or life) of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to reconcile your persons (or souls) upon the altar; therefore the same blood reconciles the person.
12 Therefore I have said unto the sons of Israel: No person of you shall eat blood; neither shall any stranger that sojourns among you eat blood.
13 And any man of the sons of Israel or of the strangers that sojourn among you who hunts and catches any beast or fowl that may be eaten, he shall pour out its blood and cover it with dust.
14 For the soul of all flesh, its life, is in its blood; therefore, I have said unto the sons of Israel, Ye shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the soul (or the life) of all flesh is its blood; whoever eats it shall be cut off.
15 And any person that eats that which died of itself or that which was torn by beasts whether it is a natural of your own country or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until the evening; then he shall be clean.
16 But if he washes them not, nor bathes his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
To the Overcomer, A Psalm of David.
1 ¶ Let the LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; let the name of the God of Jacob lift thee up
2 and send thee help from the sanctuary and strengthen thee out of Zion
3 and remember all thy offerings and reduce thy burnt sacrifice to the ashes of burnt fat, Selah.
4 Grant thee according to thine heart and fulfil all thy counsel.
5 We will rejoice in thy saving health, and in the name of our God we will be standard-bearers: let the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
6 ¶ Now know I that the LORD has kept his anointed; he will hear him from the heavens of his holiness with the saving valour of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
8 They are brought down and fallen, but we are risen and stand upright.
9 The LORD saves the king; let him hear us on the day when we call.
To the Overcomer, A Psalm of David.
1 ¶ The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy saving health how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 Thou hast given him his heart’s desire and hast not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.
3 For thou givest him beforehand the blessings of goodness; thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou didst give him length of days for ever and ever.
5 His glory is great in thy saving health; honour and beauty hast thou laid upon him.
6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever; thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
7 ¶ For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies; thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger; the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth and their seed from among the children of men.
11 For they intended evil against thee; they imagined a wicked device, but they did not prevail.
12 Therefore shalt thou separate them; thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.
13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy valour.
31 ¶ The words of King Lemuel, the prophecy with which his mother taught him.
2 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?
3 Do not give thy strength nor thy ways unto the women who destroy kings.
4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor is beer for princes
5 lest they drink and forget the law and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
6 Give beer unto him that is ready to perish and wine unto those that have heavy hearts.
7 They drink and forget their need and remember their misery no more.
8 Open thy mouth for those who cannot speak in the judgment of all the sons of death.
9 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and destitute.

2 ¶ I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men,
2 for kings, and for all that are in authority that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and integrity.
3 For this is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Saviour,
4 who desires that all men be saved and come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is only one God and likewise only one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
6 who gave himself in ransom for all, the testimony of which was confirmed at the time,
7 of which I am ordained a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth in Christ and do not lie), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
8 I desire, therefore, that the men in every place, pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and strife.
9 ¶ In like manner also that the women adorn themselves in an honest manner, with shyness and modesty, not with ostentatious hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing
10 but with good works (as becomes women professing godliness).
11 Let the woman learn, becoming silent in all subjection.
12 For I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over a mature man, but to be at rest.
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived in the rebellion;
15 notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if she continues in faith and charity and sanctification and modesty.
