And the magicians of Egypt did likewise with their secret arts, and Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he did not listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.

And Pharaoh turned and went to his house, and {he did not take also this to heart}.

And the magicians did likewise with their secret arts, and they brought up frogs over the land of Egypt.

And Yahweh did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died from the houses, from the courtyards, and from the fields.

And Pharaoh saw that there was relief, and he made his heart {insensitive}, and he did not listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.

And he did so, and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff, and he struck the dust of the land, and it became gnats on the humans and on the animals; all of the dust of the land became gnats in all the land of Egypt.

And the magicians did so with their secret arts to bring out the gnats, but they were not able, and the gnats were on the humans and on the animals.

And the magicians said to Pharaoh, "It is the finger of God." But the heart of Pharaoh was hard, and he did not listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.

And Yahweh did so, and a {severe} [swarm of] flies came to the house of Pharaoh and the house of his servants and in all the land of Egypt; the land was ruined because of the flies.

And Yahweh did according to the word of Moses and removed the flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; not one was left.

And Pharaoh made his heart {insensitive} also this time, and he did not release the people.

And Yahweh did this thing the next day; all the livestock of Egypt died, but from the livestock of the {Israelites} not one died.

And Pharaoh sent [to check], and {it turned out} not even one from the livestock of Israel had died, but Pharaoh's heart was {insensitive}, and he did not release the people.

And Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken to Moses.

But whoever did not {give regard to} the word of Yahweh abandoned his servants and his livestock in the field.

And Moses went from Pharaoh out of the city, and he spread his hands to Yahweh, and the thunder and the hail stopped, and rain did not pour [on the] earth.

And Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he did not release the {Israelites}, as Yahweh had said {by the agency of Moses}.

And Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not release the {Israelites}.

And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, and Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not release the {Israelites} from his land.

And the {Israelites} went, and they did as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron; so they did.

And Pharaoh got up [at] night, he and all his servants and all Egypt, and a great cry of distress was in Egypt because there was not a house where there was no one dead.

And the {Israelites} did according to the word of Moses, and they asked from [the] Egyptians [for] objects of silver and objects of gold and [for] clothing.

And all the {Israelites} did as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron; so they did.

Today you are going out in the month of Abib.

And you shall tell your son on that day, saying, 'This [is] because of what Yahweh did for me when I came out from Egypt.'

And when Pharaoh released the people, God did not lead them the way of the land of the Philistines, though it [was] nearer, because God said, "Lest the people change their mind when they see war and return to Egypt."

The column of cloud by day and the column of fire [by] night did not depart from before the people.

And I will harden the heart of Pharaoh, and he will chase after them, and I will be glorified through Pharaoh and through all his army, and [the] Egyptians will know that I [am] Yahweh." And they did so.

And Moses said to the people, "You must not be afraid. Stand [still] and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will accomplish for you today, because [the] Egyptians whom you see today you will see never again.

And Yahweh saved Israel on that day from the hand of Egypt, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the shore of the sea.

And Moses caused Israel to set out from the {Red Sea}, and they went out into the desert of Shur, and they traveled three days in the desert, and they did not find water.

And the {Israelites} saw, and they said {to each other}, "What [is] this?" because they did not know what it [was]. And Moses said to them, "That [is] the bread that Yahweh has given to you as food.

And the {Israelites} did so, and they gathered, some more and some less.

But they did not listen to Moses. Some people left [some] of it until morning, and it bred worms and stank. And Moses was angry with them.

And they put it aside until the morning, as Moses had commanded, and it did not make a stench, and not a maggot was in it.

And Moses said, "Eat it today, because today is a Sabbath for Yahweh. Today you will not find it in the field.

And on the seventh day [some] of the people went out to gather, and they did not find [any].

And the people thirsted for water, and the people grumbled against Moses and said, "Why {ever} did you bring us up from Egypt to kill me and my sons and my cattle with thirst?"

Look, I [will be] standing before you there on the rock in Horeb, and you will strike the rock, and water will come out from it, and the people will drink." And Moses did so before the eyes of the elders of Israel.

And Joshua did as Moses had said to him to fight with Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up [to] the top of the hill.

And Moses listened to the voice of his father-in-law, and he did all that he had said.

'You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt and [how] I bore you on eagles' wings and I brought you to me.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow. They must wash their clothes,

But if he did not lie in wait {and it was an accident}, I will appoint for you a place to which he may flee.

But if it was a goring ox {before} and its owner was warned and did not restrain it and it kills a man or a woman, the ox will be stoned, and the owner also will be put to death.

the owner of the pit will pay restitution; he will pay silver to its owner, but the dead [animal] will be for him.

And if a man's ox injures the ox of his neighbor and it dies, they will sell the living ox and divide the {money}, and they will also divide the dead [one].

Or if it was known that it was a goring ox {before} and its owner did not restrain it, he will surely make restitution, an ox in place of the ox, and the dead [one] will be for him.

And toward the leaders of the {Israelites} he did not stretch out his hand, and they beheld God, and they ate, and they drank.

And Moses said to Aaron, "What did this people do to you that you brought on them [such] a great sin?"

And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses, and from the people on that day about three thousand persons fell.

And Moses said, "{You are ordained} today for Yahweh, because each [has been] against his son and against his brother and so bringing on you today a blessing."

And the people heard this troubling word, and they mourned, and they each did not put their ornaments on themselves.

And Yahweh would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his neighbor. And he would return to the camp, and his assistant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not leave the middle of the tent.

"Keep for yourself what I myself have commanded you today. Look, I [am about to] drive from before you the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.

{And} when Moses came down from Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony [were] in the hand of Moses at his coming down from the mountain; and Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because of his speaking with him.

And he made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain, at the end in the set; so he did on the edge of the end curtain in the second set.

And they were double at the bottom, and they were completely together on its top to the one ring; he did likewise for the two of them, for the two corners.

And Bezalel the son of Uri the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, did all that Yahweh commanded Moses.

And all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of assembly was finished, and the {Israelites} had done according to all that Yahweh had commanded Moses; so they did.

According to all that Yahweh had commanded Moses, so the {Israelites} did all the work.

And Moses saw all the work, and, indeed, they had done it as Yahweh had commanded; so they did, and Moses blessed them.

And Moses did according to all that Yahweh had commanded him; so he did.

But if the cloud was not lifted, they did not set out until the day of its being lifted.

" 'If Israel's whole assembly did wrong unintentionally and the matter was concealed from the assembly's eyes, and they acted [against] {any of} Yahweh's commands that should not be {violated}, so that they incur guilt,

He shall do to the bull {just as} he did to the sin offering's bull, so he must do to it. The priest shall make atonement for them, and {they will be forgiven}.

Or if a person touches anything unclean, {whether} an unclean [wild] animal's dead body or an unclean domestic animal's dead body or an unclean swarmer's dead body, but {he is unaware of it}, he [is] unclean and he is guilty.

"If a person when he sins {violates} one from all of Yahweh's commands that should not {be violated}, but he did not know, then he is guilty and he shall bear his guilt.

He shall bring to the priest a ram without defect from the flock as a guilt offering by your valuation, and the priest shall make atonement for him because of his unintentional wrong (although he himself did not know), and he will be forgiven.

and a dead body's fat or mangled carcass's fat may be used for any {purpose}, but you certainly must not eat it.

So Moses did [just] as Yahweh commanded him, and the community gathered by the entrance to the tent of assembly.

So Aaron and his sons did all the things that Yahweh had commanded {through} Moses.

and an ox and a ram as fellowship offerings to sacrifice {before} Yahweh, and a grain offering mixed with oil, because today Yahweh will appear to you."

but you must not go out from [the] entrance to [the] tent of assembly lest you die, because Yahweh's anointing oil [is] on you." So they did according to Moses' word.

"Why did you not eat the sin offering on the sanctuary's site, because it [is] {a most holy thing}? And he gave it to you to remove the community's guilt, to make atonement for them {before} Yahweh.

So Aaron said to Moses, "Look, today they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering {before} Yahweh, and [things] such as these have happened to me, and [if] I were to eat a sin offering today, would it have been good in Yahweh's eyes?"

You must not eat from their meat, and you must not touch their dead body--they are unclean for you.

And they shall be detestable to you; you must not eat from their meat, and you must detest their dead body.

And by these you shall become unclean--anyone who touches their dead body shall become unclean until the evening,

and anyone who carries their dead body must wash his garments, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

And anything that walks upon its paws among any of the animals that walks on [all] fours--they [are] unclean for you; anyone who touches their dead body shall become unclean until the evening,

and the one who carries their dead body must wash his garments, and he shall be unclean until the evening--they [are] unclean for you.

And anything on which {one of their dead bodies} falls shall become unclean: an oven or a stove must be broken--they [are] unclean and shall be unclean for you.

Surely a spring or a cistern collecting water shall be clean, but that which touches their dead body shall become unclean.

And when {one of their dead bodies} falls on any {seed for sowing}, it [is] clean.

But when water is put on [the] seed and {one of their dead bodies} falls on it, it [is] unclean for you.

" 'And when {one of the animals} dies that is for you to eat, the one who touches its dead body shall become unclean until the evening.

And the one who eats {some of} its dead body must wash his garments, and he shall be unclean until the evening; and the one who carries its dead body must wash his garments, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

"And he shall slaughter the sin offering's goat, which [is] for the people, and he shall bring its blood {from behind} the curtain, and he shall do with its blood as that which he did with the bull's blood, and he shall spatter it on the atonement cover and {before} the atonement cover.

"And [if there is] any person who eats a dead body or a mangled carcass, [whether] among the native or among the alien, then he shall wash his garments, and he shall wash [himself] with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening, and he shall be clean.

(because the people of the land, who [were] {before you}, did all these detestable things, so the land became unclean),

Thus you shall keep my obligation to not do any of the statutes {regarding} the detestable things that they did {before you}, so that you will not make yourselves unclean by them; I [am] Yahweh your God.'"

And you shall not make a slash in your body for a dead person, nor shall you make on yourselves a tattoo's mark; I [am] Yahweh.

And you shall not follow the statutes of the nation that I am driving out {from before you}, because they did all these things, and I detested them.

" 'And a man or a woman, if a spirit of the dead or a spirit of divination is in them, they shall surely be put to death; they shall stone them with stones--their blood [is] on them.'"

Then Yahweh said to Moses, "Speak to the priests, Aaron's sons, and say to them, 'One must not make himself unclean for a dead person among his [own] people,

And he shall not go near any dead person, nor shall he make himself unclean for his father or for his mother.

He shall not eat a [naturally] dead body or a mangled carcass, {so that he becomes unclean} by it; I [am] Yahweh.

Thus Moses spoke to the {Israelites}, and they brought the curser {outside the camp}, and they stoned him [with] stones, and the {Israelites} did [just] as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

And the {Israelites} did thus; they did everything that Yahweh commanded Moses.
