{\MTB The Second Book of Moses,
\par }{\MTC Commonly Called
\par }{\MT Exodus

\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now
these
are
the
names
of
the
sons
of
Israel,
who
came
into
Egypt (every
man
and
his
household
came
with
Jacob):
\VS{2}Reuben,
Simeon,
Levi,
and
Judah,
\VS{3}Issachar,
Zebulun,
and
Benjamin,
\VS{4}Dan
and
Naphtali,
Gad
and
Asher.
\VS{5}All
the
souls
who
came
out
of
Jacob’s
body
were
seventy
souls,
and
Joseph
was
in
Egypt already.
\VS{6}Joseph
died,
as did
all
his
brothers,
and
all
that
generation.
\VS{7}The
children
of
Israel
were
fruitful,
and
increased
abundantly,
and
multiplied,
and
grew
exceedingly mighty;
and
the
land
was
filled
with
them.
\par }{\PP \VS{8}Now
there
arose
a
new
king
over
Egypt,
who
didn’t
know
Joseph.
\VS{9}He
said
to
his
people, “Behold,\FTNT{*}{{\FR 1:9 }
“Behold”, from “הִנֵּה”, means look at, take notice, observe, see, or gaze at. It is often used as an interjection.}
the
people
of
the
children
of
Israel
are
more
and
mightier
than we.
\VS{10}Come, let’s
deal
wisely
with
them,
lest
they
multiply,
and
it
happen
that
when
any
war
breaks
out,
they
also
join
themselves
to
our
enemies
and
fight
against
us,
and escape
out
of
the
land.”
\VS{11}Therefore
they
set taskmasters
over
them
to
afflict
them
with
their
burdens.
They
built
storage
cities
for
Pharaoh:
Pithom
and
Raamses.
\VS{12}But
the
more
they
afflicted
them,
the
more
they
multiplied
and
the
more
they
spread
out.
They started
to
dread
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{13}The
Egyptians ruthlessly
made
the
children
of
Israel
serve,
\VS{14}and
they
made
their
lives
bitter
with
hard
service
in mortar
and
in
brick,
and
in
all
kinds
of
service
in
the
field,
all
their
service,
in
which
they ruthlessly
made
them
serve.
\par }{\PP \VS{15}The
king
of
Egypt
spoke
to
the
Hebrew
midwives,
of
whom
the
name
of
the
one
was
Shiphrah,
and
the
name
of
the
other
Puah,
\VS{16}and
he
said, “When
you perform
the
duty
of
a
midwife
to
the
Hebrew
women,
and
see
them
on
the
birth stool,
if
it
is
a
son,
then
you
shall
kill
him;
but
if
it
is
a
daughter,
then
she
shall live.”
\VS{17}But
the
midwives
feared
God,\FTNT{†}{{\FR 1:17 }
The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “אֱלֹהִ֑ים” (Elohim).}
and
didn’t
do
what
the
king
of
Egypt
commanded
them,
but saved
the baby
boys
alive.
\VS{18}The
king
of
Egypt
called
for
the
midwives,
and
said
to
them, “Why
have
you
done
this
thing
and saved
the
boys
alive?”
\par }{\PP \VS{19}The
midwives
said
to
Pharaoh, “Because
the
Hebrew
women aren’t
like
the
Egyptian
women;
for
they
are vigourous
and
give
birth
before
the
midwife
comes
to
them.”
\par }{\PP \VS{20}God dealt
well
with
the
midwives,
and
the
people
multiplied,
and
grew
very
mighty.
\VS{21}Because
the
midwives
feared
God,
he
gave
them
families.
\VS{22}Pharaoh
commanded
all
his
people,
saying, “You
shall
cast
every
son
who
is
born
into
the
river,
and
every
daughter
you
shall save
alive.”

\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}A
man
of
the
house
of
Levi
went
and
took
a
daughter
of
Levi
as
his wife.
\VS{2}The
woman
conceived
and
bore
a
son.
When
she
saw
that
he
was
a fine
child,
she
hid
him
three
months.
\VS{3}When
she
could
no
longer
hide
him,
she
took
a
papyrus
basket
for
him,
and coated
it
with
tar
and
with
pitch.
She
put
the
child
in
it,
and
laid
it
in
the
reeds
by
the river’s
bank.
\VS{4}His
sister
stood
far
off,
to
see
what
would be
done
to
him.
\VS{5}Pharaoh’s
daughter
came
down
to
bathe
at
the
river.
Her
maidens
walked
along
by
the riverside.
She
saw
the
basket amongst
the
reeds,
and
sent
her
servant
to
get
it.
\VS{6}She
opened
it,
and
saw
the
child,
and
behold,
the baby
cried. She
had
compassion
on
him,
and
said, “This
is
one
of
the
Hebrews’
children.”
\par }{\PP \VS{7}Then
his
sister
said
to
Pharaoh’s
daughter, “Should
I go
and
call
a
nurse
for
you
from
the
Hebrew
women,
that
she
may
nurse
the
child
for
you?”
\par }{\PP \VS{8}Pharaoh’s
daughter
said
to
her, “Go.”
\par }{\PP The
young
woman went
and
called
the
child’s
mother.
\VS{9}Pharaoh’s
daughter
said
to
her, “Take
this
child
away,
and
nurse
him
for
me,
and
I
will
give
you
your
wages.”
\par }{\PP The
woman
took
the
child,
and
nursed
it.
\VS{10}The
child
grew,
and
she
brought
him
to
Pharaoh’s
daughter,
and
he
became
her
son.
She
named
him
Moses,\FTNT{*}{{\FR 2:10 }
“Moses” sounds like the Hebrew for “draw out”.}
and
said, “Because
I
drew
him
out
of
the
water.”
\par }{\PP \VS{11}In
those
days,
when
Moses
had
grown
up,
he
went
out
to
his
brothers
and
saw
their
burdens.
He
saw
an
Egyptian
striking
a
Hebrew,
one
of
his
brothers.
\VS{12}He
looked
this
way
and
that
way,
and
when
he
saw
that
there
was
no
one,
he
killed
the
Egyptian,
and
hid
him
in
the
sand.
\par }{\PP \VS{13}He
went
out
the
second
day,
and
behold,
two
men
of
the
Hebrews
were
fighting
with
each
other.
He
said
to
him
who
did
the wrong, “Why
do
you
strike
your
fellow?”
\par }{\PP \VS{14}He
said, “Who
made
you
a
prince
and
a
judge
over
us?
Do
you
plan
to
kill
me,
as
you
killed
the
Egyptian?”
\par }{\PP Moses
was
afraid,
and
said, “Surely
this
thing
is
known.”
\VS{15}Now
when
Pharaoh
heard
this
thing,
he
sought
to
kill
Moses.
But
Moses
fled
from
the
face
of
Pharaoh,
and
lived
in
the
land
of
Midian,
and
he
sat
down
by
a
well.
\par }{\PP \VS{16}Now
the
priest
of
Midian
had
seven
daughters.
They
came
and
drew
water,
and
filled
the troughs
to
water
their
father’s
flock.
\VS{17}The
shepherds
came
and
drove
them
away;
but
Moses
stood
up
and
helped
them,
and
watered
their
flock.
\VS{18}When
they
came
to
Reuel,
their
father,
he
said, “How
is
it
that
you
have
returned
so early
today?”
\par }{\PP \VS{19}They
said, “An
Egyptian
delivered
us
out
of
the
hand
of
the
shepherds,
and
moreover
he drew
water
for
us,
and
watered
the
flock.”
\par }{\PP \VS{20}He
said
to
his
daughters, “Where
is
he?
Why
is
it
that
you
have
left
the
man?
Call
him,
that
he
may
eat
bread.”
\par }{\PP \VS{21}Moses
was content
to
dwell
with
the
man.
He
gave
Moses
Zipporah,
his
daughter.
\VS{22}She
bore
a
son,
and
he
named
him
Gershom,\FTNT{†}{{\FR 2:22 }
“Gershom” sounds like the Hebrew for “an alien there”.}
for
he
said, “I
have
lived
as
a
foreigner
in
a
foreign
land.”
\par }{\PP \VS{23}In
the course
of
those
many
days,
the
king
of
Egypt
died,
and
the
children
of
Israel
sighed
because
of
the
bondage,
and
they
cried,
and
their
cry
came
up
to
God
because
of
the
bondage.
\VS{24}God
heard
their
groaning,
and
God
remembered
his
covenant
with
Abraham,
with
Isaac,
and
with
Jacob.
\VS{25}God
saw
the
children
of
Israel,
and
God
understood.

\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now
Moses
was keeping
the
flock
of
Jethro,
his
father-in-law,
the
priest
of
Midian,
and
he
led
the
flock
to
the
back
of
the
wilderness,
and
came
to
God’s
mountain,
to
Horeb.
\VS{2}The
LORD’s\FTNT{*}{{\FR 3:2 }
When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, “LORD” or “GOD” is the translation of God’s Proper Name.}
angel
appeared
to
him
in
a
flame
of
fire
out
of
the
middle
of
a
bush.
He
looked,
and
behold,
the
bush burnt
with
fire,
and
the
bush
was
not
consumed.
\VS{3}Moses
said, “I
will
go
now,
and
see
this
great
sight,
why
the
bush
is
not burnt.”
\par }{\PP \VS{4}When
the
LORD
saw
that
he
came
over
to
see,
God
called
to
him
out
of
the
middle
of
the
bush,
and
said, “Moses!
Moses!”
\par }{\PP He
said, “Here
I
am.”
\par }{\PP \VS{5}He
said, “Don’t
come
close.
Take
off
your
sandals,
for
the
place
you
are
standing
on
is
holy
ground.”
\VS{6}Moreover
he
said, “I
am
the
God
of
your
father,
the
God
of
Abraham,
the
God
of
Isaac,
and
the
God
of
Jacob.”
\par }{\PP Moses
hid
his
face
because
he
was
afraid
to
look
at
God.
\par }{\PP \VS{7}The
LORD
said, “I
have
surely
seen
the affliction
of
my
people
who
are
in
Egypt,
and
have
heard
their
cry
because
of
their
taskmasters,
for
I
know
their
sorrows.
\VS{8}I
have
come
down
to
deliver
them
out
of
the
hand
of
the
Egyptians,
and
to
bring
them
up
out
of
that
land
to
a
good
and large
land,
to
a
land
flowing
with
milk
and
honey;
to
the
place
of
the
Canaanite,
the
Hittite,
the
Amorite,
the
Perizzite,
the
Hivite,
and
the
Jebusite.
\VS{9}Now,
behold,
the
cry
of
the
children
of
Israel
has
come
to
me.
Moreover
I
have
seen
the
oppression
with
which
the
Egyptians
oppress
them.
\VS{10}Come
now
therefore,
and
I
will
send
you
to
Pharaoh,
that
you
may
bring
my
people,
the
children
of
Israel,
out
of
Egypt.”
\par }{\PP \VS{11}Moses
said
to
God, “Who
am
I,
that
I
should
go
to
Pharaoh,
and
that
I
should
bring
the
children
of
Israel
out
of
Egypt?”
\par }{\PP \VS{12}He
said, “Certainly
I
will
be
with
you.
This
will
be
the token
to
you,
that
I
have
sent
you:
when
you
have
brought
the
people
out
of
Egypt,
you
shall
serve
God
on
this
mountain.”
\par }{\PP \VS{13}Moses
said
to
God, “Behold,
when
I
come
to
the
children
of
Israel,
and
tell
them, ‘The
God
of
your
fathers
has
sent
me
to
you,’
and
they
ask
me, ‘What
is
his
name?’

should
I
tell
them?”

said
to
Moses, “I

said, “You

this: ‘I

said
moreover
to

forever,

is
my
memorial
to
all
generations.

and
gather
the
elders
of

together,

tell
them, ‘The

has
appeared
to
me,
saying, “I

surely
visited
you,

seen
that which
is
done
to
you
in

said
to

\VS{7}The magicians
did
the
same thing
with
their enchantments,
and brought
up
frogs
on
the land
of Egypt.
\par }{\PP \VS{8}Then
Pharaoh
called
for
Moses
and
Aaron,
and
said, “Entreat
the

that

take
away
the
frogs
from
me
and
from
my
people;
and
I
will
let

go,
that
they
may sacrifice
to
the
LORD.”
\par }{\PP \VS{9}Moses
said
to Pharaoh, “I give
you
the honour
of setting
the time
that
I
should pray
for
you,
and
for
your servants,

for
your people,
that
the
frogs
be destroyed
from
you
and
your
houses,
and remain
in
the river only.”
\par }{\PP \VS{10}Pharaoh said, “Tomorrow.”
\par }{\PP Moses said, “Let it
be according
to
your word,
that
you
may know
that there
is no
one
like
the LORD
our God.
\VS{11}The frogs
shall depart
from
you,

from

from

They
shall
remain
in

river only.”
\par }{\PP \VS{12}Moses
and
Aaron
went
out
from Pharaoh,
and
Moses cried
to
the
LORD
concerning
the frogs which
he
had
brought
on Pharaoh.
\VS{13}The LORD
did
according
to
the word
of Moses,
and
the frogs died
out
of
the houses,
out
of
the courts,
and
out
of
the fields.
\VS{14}They gathered
them together
in heaps,
and
the land stank.
\VS{15}But
when
Pharaoh saw
that
there
was
a respite,
he
hardened
his
heart,
and
didn’t
listen
to
them,
as
the
LORD
had
spoken.
\par }{\PP \VS{16}The
LORD
said
to
Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch
out
your rod,
and strike
the dust
of
the earth,
that
it
may
become lice
throughout
all
the
land
of Egypt.’ ”
\VS{17}They
did
so;
and Aaron
stretched
out
his hand
with
his rod,
and struck
the
dust
of
the
earth,
and
there
were lice
on
man,
and
on animal;
all
the
dust
of
the
earth became lice
throughout
all
the
land
of
Egypt.
\VS{18}The magicians tried
with
their enchantments
to
produce lice,
but
they couldn’t.
There
were lice
on man,
and
on
animal.
\VS{19}Then
the magicians said
to Pharaoh, “This
is God’s finger;”
but Pharaoh’s heart
was hardened,
and
he didn’t listen
to
them,
as
the LORD
had spoken.
\par }{\PP \VS{20}The
LORD
said
to Moses, “Rise
up early
in
the morning,
and
stand
before
Pharaoh; behold,
he
comes
out
to
the water;
and
tell
him, ‘This

go,
that
they
may
serve
me.
\VS{21}Else, if

not let
my

will send swarms
of flies
on
you,

shall
be full
of swarms
of flies,

they
are
on.

will
set apart
in

shall
be
there,

shall happen
by tomorrow.” ’ ”
\VS{24}The

did
so;
and
there
came grievous swarms
of flies
into
the house
of
Pharaoh,
and
into
his servants’ houses.
In all
the land
of Egypt
the land
was corrupted
by reason
of
the swarms
of flies.
\par }{\PP \VS{25}Pharaoh
called
for
Moses
and
for Aaron,
and
said, “Go,
sacrifice
to
your
God
in
the land!”
\par }{\PP \VS{26}Moses
said, “It isn’t appropriate
to
do
so;
for we
shall sacrifice
the abomination
of
the Egyptians
to
the
LORD
our
God. Behold, if we sacrifice
the abomination
of
the Egyptians
before
their eyes, won’t
they stone
us?

will
go three days’ journey
into
the wilderness,
and sacrifice
to

command
us.”

in

away. Pray
for

\VS{30}Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to the LORD.
\VS{31}The LORD did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. There remained not one.
\VS{32}Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.

\par }\Chap{9}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Then
the
LORD
said
to

was stubborn,

sprinkled
it
up towards

rained
hail
on

struck

were,

they
didn’t
listen
to

left
of

worms
and
became
foul;

angry
with

gathered
it
morning
by
morning,
everyone
according
to
his eating.
When

sun
grew
hot,
it
melted.

the
sixth
day,
they
gathered
twice
as
much
bread,
two
omers
for
each
one;
and
all
the rulers
of

congregation
came
and
told
Moses.
\VS{23}He
said
to
them, “This

spoken, ‘Tomorrow

over lay
up

\VS{24}They
laid
it
up
until
the
morning,
as
Moses
ordered,
and
it
didn’t
become
foul,
and
there
were
no

in

\VS{25}Moses
said, “Eat

went
out
to
gather,

they
found
none.

commanded, ‘Let
an omer-full
of
it
be
kept
throughout
your
generations,
that
they
may
see
the
bread
with
which
I
fed
you
in
the
wilderness,
when
I
brought
you
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt.’ ”
\VS{33}Moses
said
to
Aaron, “Take
a pot,
and
put
an omer-full
of
manna
in
it,
and
lay
it
up
before
the
LORD,
to
be
kept
throughout
your
generations.”
\VS{34}As
the
LORD
commanded
Moses,
so
Aaron
laid
it
up
before
the
Testimony,
to
be
kept.
\VS{35}The
children
of
Israel
ate
the
manna
forty
years,
until
they
came
to
an
inhabited
land.
They
ate
the
manna
until
they
came
to
the borders
of
the
land
of
Canaan.
\VS{36}Now an omer
is
one
tenth
of an efah.\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 16:36 }
1 efah is about 22 litres or about 2/3 of a bushel}

\par }\Chap{17}{\PP \VerseOne{1}All
the
congregation
of
the
children
of
Israel travelled
from
the
wilderness
of Sin, starting
according
to
the
LORD’s
commandment,
and
encamped
in
Rephidim;
but
there
was
no
water
for
the
people
to
drink.
\VS{2}Therefore
the
people quarrelled
with
Moses,
and
said, “Give
us
water
to
drink.”
\par }{\PP Moses
said
to
them, “Why
do
you
quarrel
with
me?
Why
do
you
test
the
LORD?”
\par }{\PP \VS{3}The
people
were
thirsty
for
water
there;
so
the
people
murmured
against
Moses,
and
said, “Why
have
you
brought
us
up
out
of
Egypt,
to
kill
us,
our
children,
and
our
livestock
with
thirst?”
\par }{\PP \VS{4}Moses
cried
to
the
LORD,
saying, “What
shall
I
do
with
these
people?
They
are
almost ready
to
stone
me.”
\par }{\PP \VS{5}The
LORD
said
to
Moses, “Walk
on
before
the
people,
and
take
the
elders
of
Israel
with
you,
and
take
the
rod
in
your
hand
with
which
you
struck
the
Nile,
and
go.
\VS{6}Behold,
I
will
stand
before

there
on

rock
in
Horeb.
You
shall
strike
the
rock,
and

will
come
out
of
it,
that

may
drink.”
Moses
did
so
in
the
sight
of
the
elders
of
Israel.
\VS{7}He
called
the
name
of
the
place
Massah,\FTNT{*}{{\FR 17:7 }
Massah means testing.

and
Meribah,\FTNT{†}{{\FR 17:7 }

because
the
children
of
Israel quarrelled,
and
because
they
tested
the
LORD,
saying, “Is
the
LORD amongst
us,
or
not?”
\par }{\PP \VS{8}Then
Amalek
came
and
fought
with
Israel
in
Rephidim.

said
to
Joshua, “Choose
men
for

and
go
out
to
fight
with
Amalek.
Tomorrow
I
will
stand
on
the
top
of
the
hill
with
God’s
rod
in
my

\VS{10}So
Joshua
did
as
Moses
had
told
him,
and
fought
with
Amalek;
and
Moses,
Aaron,
and
Hur
went
up
to
the
top
of
the
hill.
\VS{11}When
Moses
held
up
his
hand,
Israel
prevailed.
When
he
let
down
his
hand,
Amalek
prevailed.
\VS{12}But
Moses’
hands
were
heavy;
so
they
took
a
stone,
and
put
it
under
him,
and
he
sat
on
it.
Aaron
and
Hur
held
up
his
hands,
the
one
on
the
one
side,
and
the
other
on
the
other
side.
His
hands
were
steady
until sunset.
\VS{13}Joshua defeated
Amalek
and
his
people
with
the
edge
of
the
sword.
\VS{14}The
LORD
said
to
Moses, “Write
this
for
a
memorial
in
a
book,
and rehearse
it
in
the
ears
of
Joshua:
that
I
will utterly blot
out
the

Amalek
from
under
the
sky.”
\VS{15}Moses
built
an
altar,
and
called its
name “The LORD our Banner”.\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 17:15 }

\VS{16}He
said, “The

Jethro,
the

heard
of
all
that

for
Israel
his

how
the

had
brought
Israel
out
of

\VS{2}Jethro,

father-in-law,
received
Zipporah,
Moses’

after

had
sent
her
away,
\VS{3}and
her
two
sons.
The
name
of
one
son
was
Gershom,\FTNT{*}{{\FR 18:3 }
“Gershom” sounds like the Hebrew for “an alien there”.}
for
Moses
said, “I

\VS{4}The
name
of
the
other
was
Eliezer,\FTNT{†}{{\FR 18:4 }
Eliezer means “God is my helper”.

for
he said, “My

was
my

and
delivered
me
from

\VS{5}Jethro,
Moses’
father-in-law,
came
with

and
his

to
Moses
into
the
wilderness
where
he
was
encamped,
at
the
Mountain
of
God.
\VS{6}He
said
to
Moses, “I,

have
come
to
you
with
your

with
her.”

went
out
to
meet
his
father-in-law,
and
bowed
and
kissed
him.
They
asked
each
other
of
their
welfare,
and
they
came
into
the
tent.
\VS{8}Moses
told
his
father-in-law
all
that
the
LORD
had
done
to
Pharaoh
and
to
the
Egyptians
for
Israel’s
sake,
all
the hardships
that
had
come
on
them
on
the
way,
and
how
the
LORD
delivered
them.
\VS{9}Jethro
rejoiced
for
all
the goodness
which
the
LORD
had
done
to
Israel,
in
that
he
had
delivered
them
out
of
the
hand
of
the
Egyptians.
\VS{10}Jethro
said, “Blessed
be
the
LORD,
who
has
delivered
you
out
of
the
hand
of
the
Egyptians,
and
out
of
the
hand
of
Pharaoh;
who
has
delivered
the

from
under
the
hand
of
the
Egyptians.
\VS{11}Now
I
know
that
the
LORD
is
greater
than
all

because
of
the
way
that
they treated
people
arrogantly.”
\VS{12}Jethro,
Moses’
father-in-law,
took
a
burnt offering
and
sacrifices
for
God.
Aaron
came
with
all
the

of
Israel,
to
eat
bread
with
Moses’
father-in-law
before

\par }{\PP \VS{13}On
the
next
day,
Moses
sat
to
judge
the

stood
around
Moses
from

morning
to
the
evening.
\VS{14}When
Moses’
father-in-law
saw
all
that
he
did
to
the
people,
he
said, “What
is
this
thing
that
you
do
for

Why
do
you
sit
alone,
and
all
the
people
stand
around
you
from
morning
to

said
to
his

come
to
me
to enquire
of
God.
\VS{16}When
they
have
a
matter,
they
come
to
me,
and
I
judge
between
a

I
make
them
know
the
statutes
of

\VS{17}Moses’
father-in-law
said
to
him, “The
thing
that
you
do
is
not
good.
\VS{18}You
will
surely
wear
away,
both
you,
and
this
people
that
is
with
you;
for
the
thing
is
too
heavy
for
you.
You
are
not
able
to
perform
it
yourself
alone.
\VS{19}Listen
now
to
my
voice.
I
will
give
you
counsel,
and
God
be
with
you.
You represent
the
people
before
God,
and
bring
the causes
to
God.
\VS{20}You
shall
teach
them
the
statutes
and
the
laws,
and
shall
show
them
the
way
in
which
they
must
walk,
and
the
work
that
they
must
do.
\VS{21}Moreover
you
shall provide
out
of
all
the
people
able
men which
fear
God:
men
of
truth,
hating
unjust
gain;
and
place
such
over
them,
to
be
rulers
of
thousands,
rulers
of
hundreds,
rulers
of
fifties,

rulers
of
tens.
\VS{22}Let
them
judge
the

at
all
times.
It
shall
be
that
every
great
matter
they
shall
bring
to
you,
but
every
small
matter
they
shall
judge
themselves.
So
shall
it
be
easier
for
you,
and
they
shall share
the
load
with
you.
\VS{23}If
you
will
do
this

commands
you
so,
then
you
will
be
able
to
endure,
and
all
these

also
will
go
to

in
peace.”
\par }{\PP \VS{24}So
Moses
listened
to
the
voice
of

did
all
that
he
had
said.

chose

heads
over

\VS{26}They
judged
the
people
at
all

They
brought
the
hard
cases
to

they
judged
themselves.
\VS{27}Moses
let

he
went
his
way
into

\par }\Chap{19}{\PP \VerseOne{1}In

after

had
gone
out

are
the
words
which
you
shall
speak
to

came
and
called
for

set
before

all
these
words
which

commanded
him.
\VS{8}All

answered
together,
and
said, “All
that

has
spoken

reported
the
words
of

to

in
a
thick
cloud,
that

may
hear
when

speak
with
you,

told

quaked
greatly.

by

came
down
on

is
not
the
voice
of those
who
cry
for being
overcome;
but
the
noise
of those
who
sing
that
I
hear.”
\VS{19}As
soon
as
he
came
near
to
the
camp,
he
saw
the
calf
and
the
dancing.
Then
Moses’
anger grew hot,
and
he
threw
the
tablets
out
of
his
hands,
and
broke
them
beneath
the
mountain.
\VS{20}He
took
the
calf
which
they
had
made,
and
burnt
it
with
fire,
ground
it
to
powder,
and
scattered
it
on
the
water,
and
made
the
children
of
Israel
drink
it.
\par }{\PP \VS{21}Moses
said
to
Aaron, “What
did
these
people
do
to
you,
that
you
have
brought
a
great
sin
on
them?”
\par }{\PP \VS{22}Aaron
said, “Don’t
let
the
anger
of
my
lord grow hot.
You
know
the
people,
that
they
are set
on
evil.
\VS{23}For
they
said
to
me, ‘Make
us
gods,
which
shall
go
before
us.
As
for
this
Moses,
the
man
who
brought
us
up
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
we
don’t
know
what
has
become
of
him.’
\VS{24}I
said
to
them, ‘Whoever
has
any
gold,
let
them
take
it
off.’
So
they
gave
it
to
me;
and
I
threw
it
into
the
fire,
and
out
came
this
calf.”
\par }{\PP \VS{25}When
Moses
saw
that
the
people
were
out
of control, (for
Aaron
had let
them lose control, causing
derision amongst
their
enemies),
\VS{26}then
Moses
stood
in
the
gate
of
the
camp,
and
said, “Whoever
is
on
the
LORD’s side, come
to
me!”
\par }{\PP All
the
sons
of
Levi
gathered
themselves
together
to
him.
\VS{27}He
said
to
them, “The
LORD,
the
God
of
Israel,
says, ‘Every
man
put
his
sword
on
his
thigh,
and
go
back
and forth
from
gate
to
gate
throughout
the
camp,
and
every

kill
his
brother,
and
every
man
his
companion,
and
every
man
his neighbour.’ ”
\VS{28}The
sons
of
Levi
did
according
to
the
word
of
Moses.
About
three
thousand
men
fell
of
the
people
that
day.
\VS{29}Moses
said, “Consecrate
yourselves
today
to
the
LORD,
for
every
man
was
against
his
son
and
against
his
brother,
that
he
may
give
you
a
blessing
today.”
\par }{\PP \VS{30}On
the
next
day,
Moses
said
to
the
people, “You
have
sinned
a
great
sin.
Now
I
will
go
up
to
the
LORD.
Perhaps
I
shall make
atonement
for
your
sin.”
\par }{\PP \VS{31}Moses
returned
to
the
LORD,
and
said, “Oh,
this
people
have
sinned
a
great
sin,
and
have
made themselves
gods
of
gold.
\VS{32}Yet
now,
if
you
will,
forgive
their
sin—and
if
not,
please blot
me
out
of
your
book
which
you
have
written.”
\par }{\PP \VS{33}The
LORD
said
to
Moses, “Whoever
has
sinned
against
me,
I
will blot
him
out
of
my
book.
\VS{34}Now
go,
lead
the
people
to
the place
of
which

have
spoken
to
you.

my
angel
shall
go
before
you.
Nevertheless,
in
the
day
when
I
punish,
I
will
punish
them
for
their
sin.”
\VS{35}The
LORD
struck
the
people,
because
of
what
they
did
with
the
calf,
which
Aaron
made.

\par }\Chap{33}{\PP \VerseOne{1}The

spoke
to

out

heard
this
evil news,
they
mourned;

put
on
his jewellery.

had
said
to

up amongst

\par }{\PP \VS{6}The
children
of

stripped themselves
of
their jewellery
from

\par }{\PP \VS{7}Now
Moses
used
to
take
the
tent
and
pitch
it
outside

far
away
from

he
called
it “The

Everyone
who
sought

went
out
to

was
outside

rose
up,

at

entered
into

descended,
stood
at

spoke
with

stand
at

up

spoke
to

face

speaks
to

He
turned
again
into
the
camp,

his

didn’t
depart
from
