Then shall the blood serve you for a sign, on the houses wherein ye are, then will I behold the blood, and will pass over you, - and there shall be among you no plague to destroy, when I smite the laud of Egypt.

Both on the first day, a holy convocation, and on the seventh day - a holy convocation, shall there be to you, - no work, shall be done therein, save only what must be eaten by every soul, that alone, shall be done by you.

When a man delivereth unto his neighbour, an ass, or an ox or a sheep, or any beast, to keep, - and it dieth or is fractured, or is driven away, no one beholding,

On the first day - a holy convocation, shall there be to you: no laborious work, shall ye do.

And ye shall make proclamation on this self-same day - a holy convocation, shall it be unto you; no laborious work, shall ye do, - an age-abiding statute in all your dwellings, unto your generations.

And on the day of firstfruits when ye bring near a new meal-offering unto Yahweh, in your weeks, a holy convocation shall there be unto you, no laborious work, shall ye do;

And in the seventh month, on the first of the month, a holy convocation, shall there be unto you, no laborious work, shall ye do, - a day of loud acclamation, shall it be unto you.

And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, a holy convocation shall there be unto you, no laborious work, shall ye do, but ye shall celebrate a festival unto Yahweh, seven days.

And on the eighth day, a closing feast shall there be unto you, no laborious work, shall ye do;

save, when there shall be among you no needy person, - for Yahweh will indeed bless, thee, in the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee as an inheritance to possess it:

They sacrificed to mischievous demons to a No-GOD, Gods whom they knew not, - New ones lately come in, Your fathers never shuddered at them!

They have moved me to jealousy with a No-GOD, They have angered me with their vanities: I, therefore, will move them to jealousy with a No-people, With an impious nation, will I anger them.

Yet they said unto GOD, Depart from us, and, In the knowledge of thy ways, find we no pleasure.

Of what use to me, is your multitude of sacrifices: Saith Yahweh: I am sated with ascending-offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts, - In the blood of bulls and young rams and he-goats, have I no pleasure.

I, have told - and will save, and make known, That there is among you no strange one; And, ye, are my witnesses, Declareth Yahweh That, I, am GOD.

Therefore will I hurl you forth, from off this land, unto a land which ye have not known, ye, nor your fathers, - and ye can serve there other gods day and night, in that I will grant you no favour.

They keep on saying to them who despise me, Yahweh, hath spoken, saying, Prosperity, shall ye have! And to every one who is going on in the stubbornness of his own heart, have they said, There shall come on you, no calamity

Thus will I bring to an end mine indignation against the wall, and against them who were coating it with whitewash, And will say to you No more is the wall, And no more are they who were coating it:

and thou shalt say - How was thy mother a lioness, Between lions, she lay down,- I n the midst of young lions, She nourished her whelps;

Thus saith My Lord, Yahweh, No son of a foreigner Uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, - -of any son of a foreigner, who is in the midst of the sons of Israel.

For, of Israel, is even that thing! A craftsman, made it, and, a No-god, it is! For, into fragments, shall the Calf of Samaria be broken.

As for Ephraim! like a bird, did their glory, fly away, - no birth, and none with child, no conception.
