"'If a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, he may buy it out again any time within a whole year after it is sold: and that shall be the space in which he may redeem it again.

But and if it be not bought out again within the space of a full year, then the house in the walled city shall be established forever unto him that bought it and to his successors after him and shall not go out in the trumpet year.

And if a man purchase ought of the Levites: whether it be house or city that they possess, the bargain shall go out in the trumpet year for the houses of the cities of the Levites, are their possessions among the children of Israel.

"'If thy brother be waxed poor and fallen in decay with thee, receive him as a stranger or a sojourner, and let him live by thee.

for I am the LORD your God which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.

"'If thy brother that dwelleth by thee wax poor and sell himself unto thee, thou shalt not let him labour as a bondservant doeth:

but as a hired servant and as a sojourner he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee unto the trumpet year,

for they are my servants which I brought out of the land of Egypt, and shall not be sold as bondmen.

"'If thou wilt have bondservants and maidens, thou shalt buy them of the heathen that are round about you,

and of the children of the strangers that are sojourners among you, and of their generations that are with you, which they begat in your land.

And ye shall possess them and give them unto your children after you, to possess them for ever: and they shall be your bondmen. But over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not reign one over another cruelly.

"'When a stranger and a sojourner waxeth rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him waxeth poor and sell himself unto the stranger that dwelleth by thee or to any of the stranger's kin:

And he shall reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold in unto the trumpet year, and the price of his buying shall be according unto the number of years, and he shall be with him as a hired servant.

and shall be with him year by year as a hired servant, and the other shall not reign cruelly over him in thy sight.

for the children of Israel are my servants which I brought out of the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

Ye shall make you no idols, nor graven image, neither rear you up any pillar, neither ye shall set up any image of stone in your land to bow yourselves thereto: for I am the LORD your God;

keep my Sabbaths and fear my sanctuary. For I am the LORD.

"'If ye shall walk in mine ordinances and keep my commandments and do them,

then I will send you rain in the right season and your land shall yield her increase and the trees of the field shall give their fruit.

And the threshing shall reach unto wine harvest, and the wine harvest shall reach unto sowing time, and ye shall eat your bread in plenteousness, and shall dwell in your land peaceably.

And I will send peace in your land, that ye shall sleep, and no man shall make you afraid. And I will rid evil beasts out of your land, and there shall no sword go throughout your land.

"'And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you upon the sword.

And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight, and your enemies shall fall before you upon the sword.

And I will turn unto you and increase you and multiply you, and set up my covenant with you.

And ye shall eat old store, and cast out the old for plenteousness of the new.

I will make my dwelling place among you, and my soul shall not loathe you.

And I will walk among you and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.

For I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, that ye should not be their bondmen, and I broke the bows of your yokes, and made you go upright.

"'But and if ye will not hearken unto me, nor will do all these my commandments,

or if ye shall despise mine ordinances, either if your souls refuse my laws, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but shall break mine covenant:

then I will do this again unto you: I will visit you with vexations, swelling, and fevers, that shall make your eyes dazzle; and with sorrows of heart. And ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

And I will set my face against you and ye shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall reign over you, and ye shall flee when no man followeth you.

"'And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then will I punish you seven times more for your sins,

and will break the pride of your strength. For I will make the heaven over you as hard as iron, and your land as hard as brass.

And if ye walk contrary unto me and will not hearken unto me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.

I will send in wild beasts upon you, which shall rob you of your children and destroy your cattle, and make you so few in number that your highways shall grow unto a wilderness.

And if ye will not be learned yet for all this, but shall walk contrary unto me,

then will I also walk contrary unto you and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.

I will send a sword upon you, that shall avenge my covenant with you. And when ye are fled unto your cities, I will send the pestilence among you: ye shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.

And when I have broken the staff of your bread: that ten wives shall bake your bread in one oven and men shall deliver you your bread again by weight, then shall ye eat and shall not be satisfied.

"'And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, but shall walk contrary unto me,

then I will walk contrary unto you also wrathfully, and will also chastise you seven times for your sins:

so that ye shall eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters.

And I will destroy your altars built upon high hills, and overthrow your images, and cast your carcasses upon the bodies of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.

And I will make your cities desolate, and bring your sanctuaries unto nought, and will not smell the savours of your sweet odours.

"'And I will bring the land unto a wilderness: so that your enemies which dwell therein shall wonder at it.

And I will straw you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you, and your land shall be waste, and your cities desolate.

Then the land shall rejoice in her Sabbaths, as long as it lieth void and ye in your enemies' land: even then shall the land keep holy day and rejoice in her Sabbaths.

And as long as it lieth void it shall rest, for that it could not rest in your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt therein.

"'And upon them that are left alive of you, I will send a faintness into their hearts in the land of their enemies: so that the sound of a leaf that falleth, shall chase them and they shall flee as though they fled a sword, and shall fall no man following them.

And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword even no man following them, and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies:

And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

And they that are left of you, shall pine away in their unrighteousness, even in their enemies' land, and also in the misdeeds of their fathers shall they consume.

Therefore I also will walk contrary unto them, and will bring them into the land of their enemies. And then at the least way their uncircumcised hearts shall be tamed, and then they shall make an atonement for their misdeeds.

"'And I will remember my covenant with Jacob and my covenant with Isaac, and my covenant with Abraham, and will think on the land.

And yet, for all that; when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not so cast them away nor my soul shall not so abhor them, that I will utterly destroy them and break mine covenant with them: for I am the LORD their God.

I will therefore remember unto them the first covenant made when I brought them out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen to be their God: for I am the LORD.'"

"Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, 'If any man will give a singular vow unto the LORD according to the value of his soul,

And from a month unto five years, the male shall be set at five sicles of silver, and the female at three.

He may not alter it nor change it: a good for a bad or a bad for good. If he change beast for beast, then both the same beast and it also wherewith it was changed shall be holy.

If a man hallow a piece of his inherited land unto the LORD, it shall be set according to that it beareth. If it bear a homer of barley, it shall be set at fifty sicles of silver.

But when the field goeth out in the trumpet year, it shall be holy unto the LORD: even as a thing dedicated, and it shall be the priest's possession.

"'If a man sanctify unto the LORD a field, which he hath bought and is not of his inheritance,

Notwithstanding, no dedicated thing that a man dedicateth unto the LORD, of all his goods - whether it be man or beast or land of his inheritance - shall be sold or redeemed: for all dedicated things are most holy unto the LORD.

"Take ye the sum of all the multitude of the children of Israel, in their kindreds and households of their fathers and number them by name all that are males, poll by poll,

And with you shall be, of every tribe, a head man in the house of his father.

"And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: in Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur;

These are the numbers which Moses and Aaron numbered with the twelve princes of Israel: of every house of their fathers, a man.

"The children of Israel shall pitch: every man by his own standard, with the banners of their father's houses, away from the presence of the tabernacle of witness.

So that all they that pertain unto the host of Judah, are a hundred thousand eighty six thousand and four hundred in their companies: and these shall go in the forefront, when they journey.

So that all the number that pertain unto the host of Reuben, are a hundred thousand, fifty one thousand, four hundred and fifty, with their companies: and they shall be the second in the journey.

All the number that pertained unto the host of Ephraim, were a hundred thousand eight thousand and a hundred in their hosts: and they shall be the third in the journey.

So that the whole number, of all that pertained unto the host of Dan, was a hundred thousand fifty seven thousand and six hundred. And they shall be the last in the journey with their standards."

"Behold, I have taken the Levites, from among the children of Israel, for all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel: so that the Levites shall be mine.

Because all the firstborn are mine - for the same day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast, and mine they shall be: for I am the LORD."

"Number the children of Levi in the houses of their fathers and kindreds, all that are males from a month old and above."

And the sum of them - when all the males were told, from a month old and above - were seven thousand and five hundred.

And the number of all the males from a month old and above, was eight thousand and six hundred: which waited on the holy place.

And the number of them - when all the males from a month old and above was told - drew unto six thousand and two hundred.

And the whole sum of the Levites which Moses and Aaron numbered, at the commandment of the LORD - throughout their kindreds, even of all the males of a month old and above - was twenty two thousand.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Number all the firstborn that are males among the children of Israel, from a month old and above, and take the number of their names.

And all the firstborn males, in the sum of names, from a month old and above, were numbered twenty two thousand two hundred and seventy three.

among the firstborn of the children of Israel: and it came to a thousand three hundred and sixty five sicles, of the holy sicle.

and shall put thereon a covering of taxus' skins and shall spread a cloth that is altogether of jacinth, above all, and put the staves thereof in.

And upon the shew-table, they shall spread a cloth of jacinth, and put thereon the dishes, spoons, flat pieces and pots to pour with, and the daily bread shall be thereon:

and they shall spread upon them a covering of purple, and cover the same with a covering of taxus' skins, and put the staves thereof in.

And they shall take a cloth of jacinth and cover the candlestick of light and her lamps and her snuffers, and firepans, and all her oil vessels which they occupy about it,

and shall put upon her and on all her instruments, a covering of taxus' skins, and put it upon staves.

And upon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of jacinth, and put on her staves.

And they shall take all the things which they occupy to minister with in the holy place, and put a cloth of jacinth upon them and cover them with a covering of taxus' skins and put them on staves.

And they shall take away the ashes out of the altar, and spread a scarlet cloth thereon:

and put about it, the firepans, the fleshhooks, the shovels, the basins, and all that belongeth unto the altar, and they shall spread upon it a covering of taxus' skins, and put on the staves of it.

And at the mouth of Aaron and his sons, shall all the service of the children of the Gershonites be done, in all their charges and in all their service, and ye shall appoint them unto all their charges that they shall wait upon.

and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, pins and cords with all that pertaineth and serveth unto them. And by name ye shall reckon the things that they must wait upon to bear.

whether they be males or females ye shall put them out of the host, that they defile not the tents among which I dwell."

"Speak unto the children of Israel, whether it be man or woman, 'When they have sinned any manner of sin which a man doeth wherewith a man trespasseth against the LORD, so that the soul hath done amiss:

and let the priest conjure her with the conjuration of the curse, and say unto her: the LORD make thee a curse and a conjuration among thy people: so that the LORD make thy thigh rot, and thy womb to burst,

"'And the priest shall write this curse in a bill and wash it out in the bitter water.

and he shall take a handful of the memorial offering and burn it upon the altar, and then make her drink the water.

And when he hath made her drink the water, if she be defiled and have trespassed against her husband, then shall the cursing water go into her and be so bitter, that her womb shall burst and her thigh shall rot, and she shall be a curse among her people.
