Of the sons of Simeon, in their pedigree by their families by their ancestral houses, - such as were numbered of him, in the counting of names by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upwards, every one able to go forth to war;

Then they who encamp by him the tribe of Issachar, - even the prince of the sons of Issachar, Nethanel, son of Zuar;

and his host, even they who are numbered of him, fifty-seven thousand and four hundred.

and his host, even they who are numbered of him, - forty-six thousand, and five hundred.

Then they who encamp by him, the tribe of Simeon, - even the prince of the sons of Simeon, Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai;

Then by him, the tribe of Manasseh, even the prince of the sons of Manasseh, Gamaliel, son of Pedahzur;

Then they who encamp by him the tribe of Asher, - even the prince of the sons of Asher, Pagiel, son of Ochran;

Bring near the tribe of Levi, and thou shalt cause it to stand before Aaron the priest, - so shall they wait upon him;

Thus shalt thou give the Levites unto Aaron and unto his sons, - given, given, they are unto him, from among the sons of Israel;

So then Moses numbered, as Yahweh commanded him, - every firstborn among the sons of Israel.

At the bidding of Yahweh, were they put in charge by the mediation of Moses, man by man, over his labour and over his burden, - yea, they who were put in charge by him, were they, whom Yahweh commanded Moses.

then shall they confess their sin which they have done, and he shall make good that wherein he is guilty, in the principal thereof, and the fifth part thereof, shall he add thereunto, - and give to him against whom he is guilty,

But if one have no kinsman unto whom he may make goad that wherein he is guilty, then that wherein he is guilty, which is to he restored to Yahweh, shall be the priests, - besides the ram of propitiation, wherewith a propitiatory-covering is to be put over him.

And every heave-offering, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel which they bring near to the priest, unto him, shall it belong.

Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them, - When any man's wife, shall turn aside, and commit against him an act of unfaithfulness;

but there shall pass over him a spirit of jealousy, and he shall become jealous of his wife, she having committed uncleanness, - or there shall pass over him a spirit of jealousy, and he shall become jealous of his wife, she not, having committed uncleanness,

But if one that is dying should die by him in a moment suddenly, then shall he count unclean his head of separation, - and shall shave his head, on the day he cleanseth himself, on the seventh day, shall he shave it.

and the priest shall make, of one a sin - bearer and of one an ascending-sacrifice, and so put a propitiatory-covering over him, for that he sinned in respect of the dead person, - thus shall he hallow his head on that day.

And when Moses entered into the tent of meeting, that He might speak with him, then heard he the Voice speaking unto him from off the propitiatory that was upon the ark of the testimony, from between the two cherubim, - so He spake unto him.

Speak unto Aaron, and thou shalt say unto him, - When thou lightest up the lamps, over against the front of the lampstand, shall the seven lamps give light.

Then said those men unto him, We, are unclean by a dead person, - wherefore should we become of less esteem for want of offering the oblation of Yahweh in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel?

And he said unto him, I will not go, - but unto my own land, and unto my own kindred, will I go.

for a month of days until it cometh forth out of your nostrils, so shall it become to you a loathsome thing, - because ye have refused Yahweh who is in your midst, and have wept before him, saying, Wherefore now came we forth out of Egypt?

Then Yahweh came down, in the cloud, and spake unto him, and took e of the spirit that was upon him, and gave unto the seventy men - the elders. And it came to pass that when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and then did so no more.

But Moses said unto him, Art, thou, jealous for, me? Oh would that, all the people of Yahweh, were prophets! Yea let Yahweh put his spirit upon them!

Then said he Hear, I beseech you my words. When ye have your prophet, As Yahweh in a vision, will I make myself known, unto him; In a dream, will I speak with him.

Mouth to mouth, do I speak with him And plainly - not in dark sayings, And the form of Yahweh, doth he discern, - Wherefore then, were ye not afraid to speak against my servant - against Moses?

And they recounted unto him, and said, We entered into the land whither thou didst send us, and surely it doth flow with milk and honey, and, this, is the fruit thereof.

But the men who went up with him said, We cannot go up against the people, - for stronger, are they than we.

But my servant Caleb - because there was another spirit with him, and he followed me fully, therefore will I bring him into the land whereinto he entered, and his seed, shall possess it.

Now as for the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, - who returned and caused all the assembly to murmur against him by giving out rumour against the land,

and the priest shall put a propitiatory-covering over the person who hath made the mistake, when he hath sinned by mistake before Yahweh, even put a propitiatory-covering over him, and pardon shall be granted him.

And they who found him gathering sticks, brought him near, unto Moses and unto Aaron and unto all the assembly.

And they put him in ward, - because it was not clear what they should do unto him.

Then said Yahweh unto Moses, The man shall be, put to death, - all the assembly, stoning him with stones, outside the camp.

So then all the assembly, put him forth, outside the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died, - As Yahweh commanded Moses.

Then spake he unto Korah, and unto all his assembly, saying, In the morning, will Yahweh make known who are his, and who is the holy one and will cause him to come near unto himself, - yea him whom he shall choose, will he cause to come near unto himself.

Wherefore thou and all thine assembly, are conspiring against Yahweh, - But Aaron, what is he, that ye should murmur against him?

So Moses rose up, and went, unto Dathan and Abiram, - then went, after him the eiders of Israel.

And Moses spake unto the sons of Israel and every one of their princes gave unto him, a staff apiece, for each prince, by their ancestral houses, twelve staves, - and the staff of Aaron, was in the midst of their staves.

Thus did Moses, - as Yahweh commanded him, so, did he.

Then shall ye give her unto Eleazar the priest, and he shall take her forth unto the outside of the camp, and she shall be slain before him;

Whoso-ever toucheth the dead the person of the human being that dieth and doth not cleanse himself from sin, the habitation of Yahweh, hath he made unclean; that person therefore shall be cut off out of Israel, - because, the water of separation, was not dashed upon him, unclean, shall he be, his uncleanness is yet upon him.

And they shall take, for him that is un-clean, of the ashes of the burning of the sin-bearer, - and living water shall be put thereon in a vessel,

Then shall a man that is clean take hyssop, and dip in the water, and sprinkle upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons who were there, - and upon him that touched the bone or him who had been slain, or him who had died of himself or the grave;

But in the ease of the man who shall be unclean and shall not cleanse himself from sin, that person shall be cut off, out of the midst of the convocation, - for, the sanctuary of Yahweh, hath he made unclean, the water of separation, hath not been dashed upon him unclean, he is.

And Moses took the staff from before Yahweh, - as he commanded him.

And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass through my land, - lest with the sword, I come out to meet thee.

And the sons of Israel said unto him - By the highway, will we go up, and if thy waters, we should drink - I, and my cattle then would I give the price thereof, - only - it is nothing! - with my feet, would I pass through.

And he said, Thou shalt not pass through. And Edom came out to meet him, with a strong people, and with a firm hand.

Thus did Edom refuse to give Israel passage through his boundary, - and Israel turned away from him.

And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, - and took possession of his land, from Arnon unto Jabbok, unto the sons of Ammon, for strong, was the boundary of the sons of Ammon.

Then said Yahweh unto Moses - Do not fear him, for into thy hand, have I delivered him and all his people, and his land, - Therefore shalt thou do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon king of he Amorites, who was dwelling in Heshbon.

So then they smote him and his sons and all his people, until there was not left him a remnant, - and took possession of his land.

So he sent messengers unto Balaam son of Boor, to Pethor which was by the river of the land of the sons of his people to call him, - saying Lo! a people, hath come forth out of Egypt Lo! he hath covered the eye of the land, Yea he, is tarrying over against me.

Now, therefore, do come, I pray thee curse me this people. For stronger, he is than I, If peradventure I prevail, we shall smite him, That I may drive him out of the land, - For I know that, he whom thou dost bless, is to be blessed, And the whom thou dost curse, is to be cursed.

And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian went their way, with the rewards of divination in their hand, - so they came in unto Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak.

Lo! the people that hath come forth out of Egypt - he covereth the eye of the land. Now, do come, do revile me him, Peradventure I shall prevail in making war with him, And shall drive him out.

And they came in unto Balaam, - and said unto him - Thus, said Balak son of Zipper, Do not be withheld, I pray thee from coming unto me:

And God came in unto Balaam, by night, and said unto him - If, to call thee, the men have come in, arise go with them, - But only, the thing that I shall speak unto thee, that, shalt thou do.

Then kindled the anger of God, because he was going, and the messenger of Yahweh stationed himself in the way, to withstand him, - as he was riding upon his ass, his two young men being with him.

Then did Yahweh unveil the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the messenger of Yahweh stationed in the road, with his sword drawn in his hand, - so he bent his head and bowed down before him.

And the messenger of Yahweh said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass, these three times? Lo! I, myself, am come forth to withstand thee, because headlong was thy way before me.

And Balak heard that Balaam, was coming, - so he went forth to meet him unto a city of Moab which was upon the boundary of Arnon, which was in the utmost part of the boundary.

And Balak sacrificed herd and flock, - and sent unto Balaam, and unto the princes that were with him.

And it came to pass in the morning, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up the high places of Baal, - and he saw from thence the utmost part of the people.

And God came unto Balaam, - so he said unto him The seven altars, have I built in a row, and have caused to ascend, bullock and a ram on each altar.

So he returned unto him, and lo! he was stationed by his ascending-sacrifice, - he, and all the princes of Moab.

Surely from the head of the rocks, do I see him, Yea, from the hills, do I observe him, - Lo! a people, who alone doth dwell, And among the nations, he doth not reckon himself.

Then said Balak unto him - Come, I pray thee, with me unto another place, from whence thou mayest see him, nothing but his utmost part, shalt thou see, but all of him, shalt thou not see, - and so revile me him from thence.

And he took him to the field of Zophim, unto the head of Pisgah, - and built seven altars, and caused to ascend a bullock and a ram on each altar.

Then said he to Balak, Station thyself here by thine ascending-sacrifice, - while, I, meet him yonder.

So he came in unto him and, there he was-stationed by his ascending-sacrifice, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him, What hath Yahweh spoken?

He hath not discovered trouble in Jacob, Neither hath he seen wretchedness in Israel, - Yahweh, his God, is with him, And, the acclaim of a king, in his midst:

Then said Balak unto Balaam, Thou shalt neither revile, him, - nor bless him.

And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee! let me take thee unto another place, - peradventure, it may be right in the eyes of God, that thou revile me him. from thence.

So Balaam lifted up his eyes and saw Israel, dwelling, according to his tribes, - then came upon him the Spirit of God;

GOD having brought him forth out of Egypt, The very horns of the buffalo, are his, - He eateth up nations that assail him And the bones of them, he breaketh And the loins of him, he crusheth:

He hath knelt - hath lain down, Like a strong lion, yea like a lioness, Who shall rouse him up? Such as bless thee are each one blessed, But, such, as curse thee, are each one cursed.

Wherefore say, - Behold me! giving unto him my covenant of peace;

so shall it prove to be unto him and unto his seed after him, the covenant of our age-abiding priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and did put a propitiatory-covering over the sons of Israel.

For the large one, thou shalt make large his inheritance, and for the small one, thou shalt make small his inheritance, - unto each one, in proportion to them who were numbered of him, shall he given his inheritance.

And, if his father hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his blood-relation that is near unto him of his family, and he shall possess it, - So shall it serve the sons of Israel as a regulative statute, As Yahweh commanded Moses.

And Yahweh said unto Moses: Take thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is spirit, - then shalt thou lean thy hand upon him;

and shalt cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly, - and shalt charge him before their eyes;

and shalt put some of thine honour upon him, - that all the assembly of the sons of Israel may hearken.

And, before Eleazar the priest, shall he stand, and shall ask by him for the decision of the Lights, before Yahweh, - at the bidding thereof, shall they go out, and at the bidding thereof, shall they come in - he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the assembly.

And Moses did Yahweh commanded him, - and took Joshua, and caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the assembly;

and leaned his hands upon him and charged him, - As Yahweh spake by the hand of Moses.

If ye do turn away from following him, then will he yet again leave them behind in the desert, - so shall ye bring destruction upon all this people.

Then came they near unto him, and said, Folds, for flocks, would we build for our cattle, here, - and cities for our little ones;

and every armed man of you pass over the Jordan before Yahweh, - until he hath dispossessed his enemies, from before him;

And ye shall take your inheritance in the land by lot by your families - for the large one, ye shall make large his inheritance, and for the small one, make small his inheritance, whithersoever the lot cometh out to him, his, shall, it be, by the tribes of your fathers, shall ye take your inheritance.

If, then, with an instrument of iron, he smote him, and he died, a manslayer, he is, - a manslayer, shall surely die.

Or if with a stone thrown by hand, where-by one might die, he smote him and he died, a manslayer, he is, - the man-slayer, shall surely die,

Or, if with hand-weapon of wood, wherewith one might die, he smote him and he died a manslayer, he is, - the manslayer shall surely die.

The blood-redeemer, he, shall put to death the man-slayer, - when he lighteth upon him, he, shall put him to death.

Or if with hate, he shall thrust at him, or hurl at him designedly, and he have died,

or if with enmity, he hath smitten him with his band and he is dead, then shall he that dealt the blow, be surely put to death. a manslayer, he is - the blood-redeemer shall put to death the man-slayer, when he lighteth upon him.

But if suddenly, without enmity, he shall thrust him, or hurl upon him any missile, without design;
