1 And so after the [a]plague, the Lord spake unto Moses, and to Eleazar the son of Aaron the Priest, saying,
2 Take the number of all the Congregation of the children of Israel, (A)from twenty years old and above, throughout their father’s houses, all that go forth to war in Israel.
3 So Moses and Eleazar the Priest spake unto them in the plain of Moab, by Jordan [b]toward Jericho, saying,
4 From twenty years old and above ye shall number the people, as the Lord (B)had commanded Moses, and the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.

53 Unto these the land shall be divided for an inheritance, according to the number of [g]names.
54 (H)To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give less inheritance: to every one according to his number shall be given his inheritance.
55 Notwithstanding, the land shall be (I)divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit:

61 (L)And Nadab and Abihu died, because they offered strange fire before the Lord.
62 And their numbers were three and twenty thousand, all males from a month old and above, for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because there was none inheritance given them among the children of Israel.
63 ¶ These are the numbers of Moses and Eleazar the Priest which numbered the children of Israel in the plain of Moab, near Jordan, toward Jericho.
64 And among these there was not a man of them, [h]whom Moses and Aaron the Priest numbered, when they told the children of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai.
65 For the Lord said unto them, (M)They shall die in the wilderness: so there was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
27 1 The Law of the heritage of the daughters of Zelophehad. 12 The land of promise showed unto Moses. 16 Moses prayeth for a governor unto the people. 18 Joshua is appointed in his stead.
1 Then came the daughters of (N)Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the family of Manasseh, the son of Joseph (and the names of his daughters were these, Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah)
2 And stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the Priest, and before the Princes, and all the assembly at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, saying,
3 Our father (O)died in the wilderness, and he was not among the assembly of them that were assembled against the Lord in the company of Korah, but died in his [i]sin, and had no sons.
4 Wherefore should the name of our father be taken away from among his family, because he hath no son? give us a possession among the brethren of our father.
5 Then Moses brought their [j]cause before the Lord.
6 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt give them a possession to inherit among their father’s brethren, and shalt turn the inheritance of their father unto them.
8 Also thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die and have no son, then ye shall turn his inheritance unto his daughter.
9 And if he have no daughter, ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
10 And if he have no brethren, ye shall give his inheritance unto his father’s brethren.
11 And if his father have no brethren, ye shall give his inheritance unto his next kinsman of his family, and he shall possess it: and this shall be unto the children of Israel a law of [k]judgment, as the Lord hath commanded Moses.
12 ¶ Again the Lord said unto Moses, (P)Go up into this mount of Abarim, and behold the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
13 And when thou hast seen it, thou shalt be gathered unto thy people also, (Q)as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
14 For ye were (R)disobedient unto my word in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the assembly to sanctify me in the waters before their eyes: (S)That is the water of [l]Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
15 ¶ Then Moses spake unto the Lord, saying,
16 Let the Lord God of the [m]spirits of all flesh appoint a man over the Congregation,
17 Who may [n]go out and in before them, and lead them out and in, that the Congregation of the Lord be not as sheep, which have not a shepherd.
18 And the Lord said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, in whom is the Spirit, and [o]put thine hands upon him,
19 And set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation, and give him a charge in their sight,
20 And [p]give him of thy glory, that all the Congregation of the children of Israel may obey.
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the Priest, who shall ask counsel for him (T)by the [q]judgment of Urim before the Lord: at his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, and all the Congregation.
22 So Moses did as the Lord hath commanded him, and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation.
23 Then he put his hands upon him, and gave him a [r]charge, as the Lord had spoken by the hand of Moses.
28 4 The daily sacrifice. 9 The sacrifice of Sabbath. 11 Of the Month, 16 Of the Passover, 26 Of the firstfruits.
1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall observe to offer unto me in their due season mine offering, and [s]my bread for my sacrifices made by fire for a sweet savor unto me.
3 Also thou shalt say unto them, (U)This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the Lord, two lambs of a year old, without spot daily, for a continual burnt offering.
4 One lamb shalt thou prepare in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou prepare at even.
5 (V)And the tenth part of an Ephah of fine flour for a (W)meat offering mingled with the fourth part of an (X)Hin of beaten oil.
6 This shall be a daily burnt offering, as was made in the mount Sinai for a sweet savor: it is a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord.
7 And the drink offering thereof the fourth part of an Hin for one lamb: in the holy place cause to pour the drink offering unto the Lord.
8 And the other lamb thou shalt prepare at even: as the meat offering of the morning, and as the drink offering thereof shalt thou prepare this [t]for an offering made by fire of sweet savor unto the Lord.
9 ¶ But on the Sabbath day ye shall offer two lambs of a year old, without spot, and two [u]tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof.
10 This is the burnt offering of every Sabbath, beside the [v]continual burnt offering, and drink offering thereof.
11 ¶ And in the beginning of your months, ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the Lord, two young bullocks, and a ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without spot,
12 And three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering mingled with oil for one bullock, and two tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil for one ram,
13 And a tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat offering unto one lamb, for a burnt offering of sweet savor: it is an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
14 And their [w]drink offerings shall be half an Hin of wine unto one bullock, and the third part of an Hin unto a ram, and the fourth part of an Hin unto a lamb: this is the burnt offering of every month, throughout the months of the year.
15 And one he goat for a sin offering unto the Lord shall be prepared, besides the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.
16 (Y)Also the fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover of the Lord.
17 And in the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.
18 In the (Z)first day shall be an holy [x]convocation, ye shall do no servile work therein.
19 But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt offering unto the Lord, two young bullocks, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old: see that they be without blemish.
20 And their meat offering shall be of fine flour mingled with oil: three tenth deals shall ye prepare for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram:
21 One tenth deal shalt thou prepare for every lamb, even for the seven lambs.
22 And an he goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you.
23 Ye shall prepare these beside the burnt offering in the morning, which is a continual burnt sacrifice.
24 After this manner ye shall prepare throughout all the seven days, for the [y]maintaining of the offering made by fire for a sweet savor unto the Lord: it shall be done beside the continual burnt offering and drink offering thereof.
25 And in the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation, wherein ye shall do no servile work.
26 ¶ Also in the day of your firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat offering unto the Lord, according to your [z]weeks ye shall have an holy convocation: and ye shall do no servile work in it:
27 But ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savor unto the Lord, two young bullocks, a ram, and seven lambs of a year old,
28 And their meat offering of fine flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals unto a bullock, two tenth deals to a ram,
29 And one tenth deal unto every lamb throughout the seven lambs,
30 And an he goat to make an atonement for you:
31 (Ye shall do this besides the continual burnt offering, and his meat offering:) [aa]see they be without blemish, with their drink offerings.
8 1 The miracle of the seven loaves. 11 The Jews seek signs. 15 To beware of the leaven of the Pharisees. 22 A blind man healed. 27 The people’s sundry opinions of Christ. 29 The Apostles acknowledge Christ. 31 He foretelleth his death. 33 Peter, Satan. 35 To save and lose the life. 38 To be ashamed of Christ.
1 In (A)those days, when there was a very great multitude, and had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him, and said unto them,
2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now continued with me three days, and have nothing to eat.
3 And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they would [a]faint by the way: for some of them came from far.
4 Then his disciples answered him, Whence can a man satisfy these with bread here in the wilderness?
5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
6 Then he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, brake them, and gave to his disciples to set before them, and they did set them before the people.
7 They had also a few small fishes: and when he had given thanks, he commanded them also to be set before them,
8 So they did eat, and were sufficed, and they took up of the broken meat that was left, seven baskets full.
9 (And they that had eaten, were about four thousand) so he sent them away.
10 ¶ (B)And anon he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
11 (C)[b]And the Pharisees [c]came forth, and began to dispute with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, and tempting him.
12 Then he [d]sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, Why doth this generation seek a sign? Verily I say unto you, [e]a sign shall not be given unto this generation.
13 ¶ So he left them, and went into the ship again, and departed to the other side.
14 ¶ (D)And they had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them, but one loaf.
15 [f]And he charged them, saying, Take heed, and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
16 [g]And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is, because we have no bread.
17 And when Jesus knew it, he said unto them, Why reason you thus, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your hearts yet hardened?
18 Have ye eyes, and see not? and have ye ears, and hear not? and do ye not remember?
19 (E)When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of broken meat took ye up? They said unto him, Twelve.
20 And when I brake seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of the leavings of broken meat took ye up? And they said, Seven.
21 Then he said unto them, [h]How is it that ye understand not?
22 [i]And he came to Bethsaida, and they brought a blind man unto him, and desired him to touch him.
23 Then he took the blind by the hand, and led him out of the town, and spat in his eyes, and put his hands upon him, and asked him, if he saw ought.
24 And he looked up, and said, I [j]see men: for I see them walking like trees.
25 After that, he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him [k]look again. And he was restored to his sight, and saw every man afar off clearly.
26 [l]And he sent him home to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
27 ¶ (F)[m]And Jesus went out, and his disciples into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?
28 And they answered, Some say, John Baptist: and some, Elijah: and some, one of the Prophets.
29 And he said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Then Peter answered, and said unto him, Thou art that Christ.
30 [n]And he sharply charged them, that concerning him they should tell no man.
31 [o]Then he began to teach them that the son of man must suffer many things, and should be reproved of the Elders, and of the high Priests, and of the Scribes, and be slain, and within three days rise again.
32 [p]And he spake that thing boldly. Then Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him.
33 Then he turned back and looked on his disciples, and rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou [q]understandest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.
34 ¶ [r]And he called the people unto him with his disciples, and said unto them, (G)Whosoever will follow me, let him forsake himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 For whosoever will (H)save his life, shall lose it: but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the Gospel’s, he shall save it.
36 [s]For what shall it profit a man, though he should win the whole world, if he lose his soul?
37 Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?
38 (I)For whosoever shall be ashamed of me, and of my words among this adulterous and sinful generation, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed also, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy Angels.
