Bible (KJV) 01-03: Genesis, Exodus and Leviticus

02:023:001 Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. 02:023:002 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment: 02:023:003 Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause. 02:023:004 If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. 02:023:005 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him. 02:023:006 Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause. 02:023:007 Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked. 02:023:008 And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous. 02:023:009 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. 02:023:010 And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof: 02:023:011 But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; 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. 02:023:012 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. 02:023:013 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. 02:023:014 Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year. 02:023:015 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 camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:) 02:023:016 And the feast of harvest, 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. 02:023:017 Three items in the year all thy males shall appear before the LORD God. 02:023:018 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning. 02:023:019 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk. 02:023:020 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared. 02:023:021 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him. 02:023:022 But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries. 02:023:023 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off. 02:023:024 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. 02:023:025 And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. 02:023:026 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil. 02:023:027 I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee. 02:023:028 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee. 02:023:029 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. 02:023:030 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land. 02:023:031 And I will set thy bounds 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. 02:023:032 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. 02:023:033 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me: for if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee. 02:024:001 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 ye afar off. 02:024:002 And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him. 02:024:003 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do. 02:024:004 And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel. 02:024:005 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD. 02:024:006 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. 02:024:007 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient. 02:024:008 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words. 02:024:009 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel: 02:024:010 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness. 02:024:011 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink. 02:024:012 And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. 02:024:013 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God. 02:024:014 And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them. 02:024:015 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount. 02:024:016 And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud. 02:024:017 And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel. 02:024:018 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights. 02:025:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 02:025:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering. 02:025:003 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass, 02:025:004 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, 02:025:005 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood, 02:025:006 Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense, 02:025:007 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate. 02:025:008 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. 02:025:009 According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it. 02:025:010 And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 02:025:011 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about. 02:025:012 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. 02:025:013 And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold. 02:025:014 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them. 02:025:015 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it. 02:025:016 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee. 02:025:017 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. 02:025:018 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat. 02:025:019 And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof. 02:025:020 And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be. 02:025:021 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee. 02:025:022 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel. 02:025:023 Thou shalt also make a table of shittim wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 02:025:024 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about. 02:025:025 And thou shalt make unto it a border of an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about. 02:025:026 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. 02:025:027 Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the table. 02:025:028 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. 02:025:029 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them. 02:025:030 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway. 02:025:031 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same. 02:025:032 And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side: 02:025:033 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: so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick. 02:025:034 And in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers. 02:025:035 And there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick. 02:025:036 Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold. 02:025:037 And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it. 02:025:038 And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold. 02:025:039 Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels. 02:025:040 And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount. 02:026:001 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them. 02:026:002 The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have one measure. 02:026:003 The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five curtains shall be coupled one to another. 02:026:004 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain, in the coupling of the second. 02:026:005 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is in the coupling of the second; that the loops may take hold one of another. 02:026:006 And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains together with the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle. 02:026:007 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make. 02:026:008 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. 02:026:009 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. 02:026:010 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second. 02:026:011 And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one. 02:026:012 And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle. 02:026:013 And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth 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. 02:026:014 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering above of badgers' skins. 02:026:015 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up. 02:026:016 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board. 02:026:017 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. 02:026:018 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side southward. 02:026:019 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons. 02:026:020 And for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty boards: 02:026:021 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. 02:026:022 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six boards. 02:026:023 And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides. 02:026:024 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. 02:026:025 And they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. 02:026:026 And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle, 02:026:027 And 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. 02:026:028 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end. 02:026:029 And thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold. 02:026:030 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount. 02:026:031 And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made: 02:026:032 And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver. 02:026:033 And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy. 02:026:034 And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place. 02:026:035 And thou shalt set the table without the vail, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on the north side. 02:026:036 And thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework. 02:026:037 And thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them. 02:027:001 And thou shalt make an altar of shittim wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad;

and upon the net shalt thou make four brasen rings in the four corners thereof. 02:027:005 And thou shalt put it under the compass of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the altar. 02:027:006 And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with brass. 02:027:007 And the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it. 02:027:008 Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shewed thee in the mount, so shall they make it. 02:027:009 And thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side southward there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen of an hundred cubits long for one side: 02:027:010 And the twenty pillars thereof and their twenty sockets shall be of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver. 02:027:011 And likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings of an hundred cubits long, and his twenty pillars and their twenty sockets of brass;
