And the son of the Israelite woman said evil against the holy Name, with curses; and they took him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

Take the curser outside the tent-circle; and let all in whose hearing the words were said put their hands on his head, and let him be stoned by all the people.

And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, and they took the man who had been cursing outside the tent-circle and had him stoned. The children of Israel did as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

Then let him take into account the years from the time when he gave it up, and make up the loss for the rest of the years to him who took it, and so get back his property.

Take no interest from him, in money or in goods, but have the fear of your God before you, and let your brother make a living among you.

Do not take interest on the money which you let him have or on the food which you give him.

I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, that I might be your God.

For they are my servants whom I took out from the land of Egypt; they may not become the property of another.

But you may get servants as property from among the nations round about; from them you may take men-servants and women-servants.

And if there is only a short time, he will take account of it with his master, and in relation to the number of years he will give back the price of making him free.

For the children of Israel are servants to me; they are my servants whom I took out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

And I will give you peace in the land, and you will take your rest and no one will give you cause for fear; and I will put an end to all evil beasts in the land, and no sword of war will go through your land.

And old stores long kept will be your food, and you will take out the old because of the new;

I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt so that you might not be servants to them; by me the cords of your yoke were broken and I made you go upright.

This will I do to you: I will put fear in your hearts, even wasting disease and burning pain, drying up the eyes and making the soul feeble, and you will get no profit from your seed, for your haters will take it for food.

I will let loose the beasts of the field among you, and they will take away your children and send destruction on your cattle, so that your numbers will become small and your roads become waste.

When I take away your bread of life, ten women will be cooking bread in one oven, and your bread will be measured out by weight; you will have food but never enough.

Then you will take the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters for food;

And I will make your towns waste and send destruction on your holy places; I will take no pleasure in the smell of your sweet perfumes;

Then will the land take pleasure in its Sabbaths while it is waste and you are living in the land of your haters; then will the land have rest.

So that I went against them and sent them away into the land of their haters: if then the pride of their hearts is broken and they take the punishment of their sins,

And because of them I will keep in mind the agreement which I made with their fathers, whom I took out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, to be their God: I am the Lord.

And if it is any unclean beast, of which offerings are not made to the Lord, then let him take the beast before the priest;

Take the full number of the children of Israel, by their families, and by their fathers' houses, every male by name;

And to give you help, take one man from every tribe, the head of his father's house.

And Moses and Aaron took these men, marked out by name;

But to them you are to give the care of the Tent of meeting with its vessels and everything in it: they are to take up the Tent, and be responsible for everything to do with it, and put up their tents round it.

And when the Tent of meeting goes forward, the Levites are to take it down; and when it is to be put up, they are to do it: any strange person who comes near it is to be put to death.

For all the first sons are mine; on the day when I put to death all the first sons in the land of Egypt, I took for myself every first male birth of man and beast. They are mine; I am the Lord.

And the Lord said to Moses, Let all the first male children be numbered, and take the number of their names.

Take the Levites in place of all the first sons of the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites in place of their cattle; the Levites are to be mine; I am the Lord.

So Moses took the money, the price of those whose place had not been taken by the Levites;

From the first sons of Israel he took it, a thousand, three hundred and sixty-five shekels, by the scale of the holy place;

When all the people go forward, Aaron is to go in with his sons, and take down the veil of the curtain, covering the ark of witness with it;

And they are to take a blue cloth, covering with it the light-support with its lights and its instruments and its trays and all the oil vessels which are used for it:

And they are to take away the burned waste from the altar, and put a purple cloth on it;

And after the holy place and all its vessels have been covered up by Aaron and his sons, when the tents of the people go forward, the sons of Kohath are to come and take it up; but the holy things may not be touched by them for fear of death.

But do this to them, so that life and not death may be theirs when they come near the most holy things; let Aaron and his sons go in and give to every one his work and that which he is to take up;

This is to be the work of the Gershonites, the things they are to do and take up.

They are to take up the curtains of the House, and the Tent of meeting with its cover and the leather cover over it, and the hangings for the door of the Tent of meeting;

From the mouth of Aaron and his sons the Gershonites will have word about all the things they are to do and take up; you are to give them their orders.

So Moses and Aaron and the chiefs of the people took in hand the numbering of the sons of the Kohathites, by families, in the order of their fathers' houses;

Give orders to the children of Israel to put outside the tent-circle every leper, and anyone who has any sort of flow from his body, and anyone who is unclean from the touch of the dead;

But if the man has no relation to whom the payment may be made, then the payment for sin made to the Lord will be the priest's, in addition to the sheep offered to take away his sin.

Then let him take her to the priest, offering for her the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal, without oil or perfume; for it is a meal offering of a bitter spirit, a meal offering keeping wrongdoing in mind.

And the priest will take holy water in a pot and put in it dust from the floor of the House;

And he will make the woman come before the Lord with her hair loose, and will put the meal offering, the offering of a bitter spirit, in her hands; and the priest will take in his hand the bitter water causing the curse;

And he will make her take an oath, and say to her, If no man has been your lover and you have not been with another in place of your husband, you are free from this bitter water causing the curse;

And the priest will take from her hand the meal offering of doubt, waving it before the Lord, and will take it to the altar;

And he will take some of it in his hand, burning it on the altar as a sign, and then he will give the woman the bitter water.

Or for a husband who, in a bitter spirit, has doubts in his heart about his wife; let him take her to the priest, who will put in force this law.

He is to keep himself from wine and strong drink, and take no mixed wine or strong drink or any drink made from grapes, or any grapes, green or dry.

All the time he is separate he may take nothing made from the grape-vine, from its seeds to its skin.

And on the eighth day let him take to the priest, at the door of the Tent of meeting, two doves or two young pigeons;

And the priest will give one for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering to take away the sin which came on him on account of the dead, and he will make his head holy that same day.

And the priest will take them before the Lord, and make his sin-offering and his burned offering;

And the priest will take the cooked leg of the sheep and one unleavened cake and one thin cake out of the basket, and put them on the hands of the separate one after his hair has been cut,

Waving them for a wave offering before the Lord; this is holy for the priest, together with the waved breast and the leg which is lifted up; after that, the man may take wine.

Take the things from them, to be used for the work of the Tent of meeting; and give them to the Levites, to every man what is needed for his work.

So Moses took the carts and the oxen and gave them to the Levites.

Take the Levites out from among the children of Israel and make them clean.

Then let them take a young ox and its meal offering, crushed grain mixed with oil, and take another ox for a sin-offering.

And you are to take the Levites before the Lord: and the children of Israel are to put their hands on them:

And the Levites are to put their hands on the heads of the oxen, and one of the oxen is to be offered for a sin-offering and the other for a burned offering to the Lord to take away the sin of the Levites.

And I have given them to Aaron and to his sons, from among the children of Israel, to undertake for them all the work of the Tent of meeting, and to take away sin from the children of Israel so that no evil may come on them when they come near the holy place.

And the Levites were made clean from sin, and their clothing was washed, and Aaron gave them for a wave offering before the Lord; and Aaron took away their sin and made them clean.

And when it came to rest, he said, Take rest, O Lord, and give a blessing to the families of Israel.

Am I the father of all this people? have I given them birth, that you say to me, Take them in your arms, like a child at the breast, to the land which you gave by an oath to their fathers?

I am not able by myself to take the weight of all this people, for it is more than my strength.

And I will come down and have talk with you there: and I will take some of the spirit which is on you and put it on them, and they will take part of the weight of the people off you, so that you do not have to take it by yourself.

And Moses went out and gave the people the words of the Lord: and he took seventy of the responsible men of the people, placing them round the Tent.

And they said, Have the words of the Lord been given to Moses only? have they not come to us? And the Lord took note of it.

They went up into the South and came to Hebron; and Ahiman and Sheshai and Talmai, the children of Anak, were living there. (Now the building of Hebron took place seven years before that of Zoan in Egypt.)

And they came to the valley of Eshcol, and cutting down a vine-branch with its grapes, two of them took it on a rod between them; and they took some pomegranates and figs.

That place was named the valley of Eshcol because of the grapes which the children of Israel took from there.

Then Caleb made signs to the people to keep quiet, and said to Moses, Let us go up straight away and take this land; for we are well able to overcome it.

And if the Lord has delight in us, he will take us into this land and give it to us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

I will send disease on them for their destruction, and take away their heritage, and I will make of you a nation greater and stronger than they.

And Moses said to the Lord, Then it will come to the ears of the Egyptians; for by your power you took this people out from among them;

Because the Lord was not able to take this people into the land which he made an oath to give them, he sent destruction on them in the waste land.

But my servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit in him, and has been true to me with all his heart, him I will take into that land into which he went, and his seed will have it for their heritage.

And your little ones, whom you said would come into strange hands, I will take in, and they will see the land which you would not have.

Then, when you take for your food the produce of the land, you are to give an offering lifted up before the Lord.

And the priest will take away the sin of the person who has done wrong, if the wrong was done unconsciously, and he will have forgiveness.

And those who saw him getting sticks took him before Moses and Aaron and all the people.

So all the people took him outside the tent-circle and he was stoned to death there, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt, so that I might be your God: I am the Lord your God.

They came together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, You take overmuch on yourselves, seeing that all the people are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them; why then have you put yourselves in authority over the people of the Lord?

So do this: let Korah and all his band take vessels for burning perfumes;

And put spices on the fire in them before the Lord tomorrow; then the man marked out by the Lord will be holy: you take overmuch on yourselves, you sons of Levi.

Does it seem only a small thing to you that the God of Israel has made you separate from the rest of Israel, letting you come near himself to do the work of the House of the Lord, and to take your place before the people to do what has to be done for them;

And let every man take a vessel for burning perfumes, and put sweet spices in them; let every man take his vessel before the Lord, two hundred and fifty vessels; you and Aaron and everyone with his vessel.

So every man took his vessel and they put fire in them, with spices, and came to the door of the Tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron.

But if the Lord does something new, opening the earth to take them in, with everything which is theirs, and they go down living into the underworld, then it will be clear to you that the Lord has not been honoured by these men.

And the earth, opening her mouth, took them in, with their families, and all the men who were joined to Korah, and their goods.

Say to Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, that he is to take out of the flames the vessels with the perfumes in them, turning the fire out of them, for they are holy;

So Eleazar the priest took the brass vessels which had been offered by those who were burned up, and they were hammered out to make a cover for the altar:

And Moses said to Aaron, Take your vessel and put in it fire from the altar, and sweet spices, and take it quickly into the meeting of the people, and make them free from sin: for wrath has gone out from the Lord, and the disease is starting.

And at the words of Moses, Aaron took his vessel, and went running among the people; and even then the disease had made a start among them; and he put spices in his vessel to take away the sin of the people.

And he took his place between the dead and the living: and the disease was stopped.
