22 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons that they abstain from the holy things of the sons of Israel and that they not profane my holy name in those things which they sanctify unto me. I am the LORD.
3 Say unto them, Any man of all your seed among your generations that goes in unto the holy things, which the children of Israel sanctify unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence. I am the LORD.
4 Whatever man of the seed of Aaron who is a leper or has a running issue shall not eat of the holy things until he is clean. And whosoever touches any thing that is unclean by the dead or a man whose seed has gone out from him
5 or the man who has touched any reptile, by which he shall be unclean, or a man of whom he shall become unclean, according to whatever uncleanness he has,
6 the person who has touched any such shall be unclean until evening and shall not eat of the holy things until he has washed his flesh with water.
7 And when the sun is down, he shall be clean and shall afterward eat of the holy things, because it is his bread.
8 That which dies of itself or is torn by beasts, he shall not eat to defile himself therewith. I am the LORD.
9 They shall therefore keep my ordinance lest they bear sin for it and die therefore, if they profane it. I AM he who sanctifies them.
10 ¶ No stranger shall eat of the holy thing; a guest of the priest or a hired servant shall not eat of the holy thing.
11 But when the priest shall buy any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house, they shall eat of his bread.
12 If the priest’s daughter becomes married unto a stranger, she may not eat of that which is set apart of the holy things.
13 But if the priest’s daughter becomes a widow or divorced and has no child and is returned unto her father’s house as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s bread; but no stranger shall eat thereof.
14 And if a man eats of the holy thing by error, then he shall add the fifth part thereof unto it and shall give it unto the priest with the offering that he ate.
15 And they shall not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they set apart unto the LORD,
16 or suffer them to bear the iniquity of their guilt, when they eat their holy things. For I AM he who sanctifies them.
17 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
18 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons and unto all the sons of Israel and say unto them, Any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers in Israel that will offer his oblation for all his vows and for all his freewill offerings, which they will offer unto the LORD for a burnt offering,
19 ye shall offer of your own free will a male without blemish of the bovine cattle of the sheep or of the goats.
20 But ye shall not offer any thing that has a blemish, for it shall not be acceptable for you.
21 Likewise when anyone offers a sacrifice of peace unto the LORD to present his vow or a freewill offering in bovine cattle or sheep, it must be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.
22 Blind or broken or maimed or having a running sore or scurvy or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto the LORD, nor make an offering on fire of them upon the altar of the LORD.
23 A bullock or a lamb that has any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, thou may offer for a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.
24 Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised or crushed or broken or cut; neither shall ye do thus in all your land.
25 Neither from the son of a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these because their corruption is in them and blemishes are in them; they shall not be accepted for you.
26 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
27 When a bullock or a sheep or a goat is born, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering on fire unto the LORD.
28 And whether it is cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.
29 And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the LORD, offer it of your own free will.
30 On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the morrow. I am the LORD.
31 Keep, therefore, my commandments and do them. I am the LORD.
32 Profane ye not my holy name, and I will sanctify myself in the midst of the sons of Israel. I AM he who sanctifies you
33 and who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD.
A Psalm of David.
1 ¶ Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent unto me lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like those that go down into the grave.
2 Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the oracle of thy holiness.
3 Do not catch me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbours, but evil is in their hearts.
4 Give them according to their deeds and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render unto them their desert.
5 Because they do not regard the works of the LORD nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them and not build them up.
6 ¶ Blessed be the LORD because he has heard the voice of my supplications.
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoices; and with my song I will praise him.
8 The LORD is the strength of his people, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
9 Save thy people and bless thine inheritance; feed them also and lift them up for ever.
A Psalm of David.
1 ¶ Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thunders: the LORD is upon many waters.
4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; yea, the LORD broke the cedars of Lebanon.
6 And He made them skip like calves; Lebanon and Sirion like the sons of the unicorns.
7 The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.
8 The voice of the LORD that shall shake the wilderness; the LORD shall shake the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the LORD shall make the hinds to calve and shall uncover the forests: and in his temple every one speaks to his glory.
10 The LORD sits upon the flood; yea, the LORD sat down as King for ever.
11 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people in peace.
5 ¶ Watch thy feet when thou goest to the house of God and draw near with more willingness to hear than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know how to do what God wants.
2 Do not be rash with thy mouth and do not let thy heart be hasty to utter any thing before God, for God is in heaven and thou upon earth; therefore let thy words be few.
3 For out of much preoccupation comes the dream, and the voice of the fool out of a multitude of words.
4 ¶ When thou dost vow a vow unto God, do not defer to pay it; for he has no pleasure in fools; pay that which thou hast vowed.
5 It is better that thou should not vow than that thou should vow and not pay.
6 Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was ignorance. Why should thou cause God to be angry because of thy voice and destroy the work of thine hands?
7 Because dreams abound, and vanities and the words are many, but fear thou God.
8 If thou seest violence unto the poor and the extortion of rights and justice in a province, do not marvel at the matter, for height is looking upon height; and there is one higher than they.
9 ¶ And there is higher authority in all of the things of the earth, but he who serves the field is king.
10 He that loves money shall not be satisfied with money; nor he that loves abundance with increase; this is also vanity.
11 When goods increase, those that eat them are increased; and what good is there to the owners thereof, except the beholding of them with their eyes?
12 The sleep of the servant is sweet whether he eats little or much, but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.
13 There is another sore evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt;
14 which are lost by evil pursuits and to the sons which he has begotten; there is nothing left in his hand.
15 As he came forth of his mother’s womb, naked shall he return to go as he came and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.
16 And this also is a sore evil; that in all points as he came, so shall he go; and what profit has he that has laboured for the wind?
17 In addition to this, all the days of his life he shall eat in darkness, with much wrath and pain and sorrow sickness.
18 ¶ Behold therefore the good which I have seen: that good is to eat and to drink and to enjoy of the good of all his labour that he takes under the sun all the days of his life, which God gives him; for it is his portion.
19 Likewise, unto every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, he has also given him power to eat thereof and to take his portion and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God.
20 To such a one, God will remove the concerns common to others, for God shall answer him with joy from his heart.
1 ¶ Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,
2 to Timothy, dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace of God the Father and of Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with a pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day,
4 greatly desiring to see thee (being mindful of thy tears), that I may be filled with joy,
5 when I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois and thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that in thee also.
6 ¶ Therefore I admonish thee that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
7 For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of strength and of love and of temperance.
8 Therefore be not thou ashamed to give testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel by the power of God,
9 who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the times of the ages,
10 but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has annulled death, and has brought life and incorruption to light through the gospel,
11 unto which I am appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 For which cause I also suffer these things; nevertheless, I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and charity which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Keep the good deposit committed unto thee by the Holy Spirit which dwells in us.
15 ¶ This, thou knowest, that all those who are in Asia are turned away from me, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus for he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chain;
17 for when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently and found me.
18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day; and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.
