And it came to pass that all the persons who were descended from Jacob were seventy souls, - but, Joseph, was already in Egypt.

But the sons of Israel, were fruitful and swarmed and multiplied and waxed mighty, with exceeding vigour, - so that the land was filled with them.

But the more they were humiliating them, the more, were they multiplying, and, the more, were they breaking forth, so they were filled with alarm because of the sons of Israel.

So then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe by the river, and her, maidens, were walking by the side of the river, - when she saw the ark in the midst of the rushes, and sent her handmaid, and fetched it.

Then said Yahweh unto Moses in Midian, Go, return to Egypt, - for all the men are dead who were seeking thy life.

Then were beaten the overseers of the sons of Israel, whom the taskmasters of Pharaoh had set over them saying: Wherefore have ye not completed your task for making bricks, as heretofore, so also, yesterday and, to-day?

Moreover also, I heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians, were holding in servitude, So then I remembered my covenant.

And, these, are the names of the sons of Levi by their generations, Gershon, and Kohath and Merari, And, the years of the life of Levi, were a hundred and thirty-seven years.

And the sons of Kohath, Amram and Izhar, and Hebron and Uzziel. And the years of the life of Kohath, were a hundred and thirty-three years.

So then, Amram took Jochebed, his father's sister to himself to wife, and she bare to him - Aaron and Moses. And, the years of the life of Amram, were a hundred and thirty-seven.

They who were to speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring forth the sons of Israel out of Egypt: The same, Moses and Aaron.

And Moses and Aaron, did so, as Yahweh commanded, and he lifted high the staff, and smote the waters which were in the river, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants, - and all the waters which were in the river were turned to blood;

And seven days were fulfilled, - after Yahweh had smitten the river.

Only in the land of Goshen, where were the sons of Israel, was there no hail.

Now, the flax and the barley, were smitten, - for the barley, was in the ear, and, the flax, was in flower;

but the wheat and the spelt, were not smitten, - for they were, not ripe.

So Moses and Aaron were brought back unto pharaoh, and he said unto them - Go, serve Yahweh your God, - who, are they that are going?

Not so! Go, I pray you, ye grown men and serve Yahweh, for, that, is what, ye, were seeking. And they were driven out from the presence of Pharaoh.

And Yahweh let the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt wax bold, and he pursued the sons of Israel, - when the sons of Israel, were going out with a high hand.

Then said they unto Moses, Was it because there were no graves in Egypt, that thou didst fetch us to die in the desert? What is this thou hast done to us, bringing us forth out of Egypt?

And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and Yahweh carried away the sea by a mighty east wind all the night, and turned the sea into dry land, - and the waters were cloven asunder.

Then went the sons of Israel into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, - and, the waters, to them, were a wall, on their right hand and on their left.

So Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea and the sea returned, towards morning, to its steady flow, when the Egyptians, were fleeing to meet it, - thus Yahweh shook off the Egyptians into the midst of the sea;

thus the waters returned and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, even all the forces of Pharaoh that were entering after them into the sea, - there was not left remaining among them so much as one.

The chariots of Pharaoh and his train, hath he cast into the sea, - Yea, the choice of his warriors, were sunk in the Sedgy Sea.

Thou didst blow with thy wind they were covered by the sea, - They rolled like lead, into the waters so wide. Who is, like unto thee, among the mighty O Yahweh?

Then, were amazed the chiefs of Edom, The mighty ones of Moab, there seizeth them, a trembling, - Melted away, have all the dwellers of Canaan:

and, when they came in towards Marah they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter, - for this taut, was the name thereof called Marah.

Then came they in to Elim, and there, were twelve fountains of water and seventy palm-trees, - so they encamped there, by the waters.

And, the sons of Israel did eat the manna forty years, until they entered into the land wherein they were to dwell, - the manna, they did eat until they entered into the bounds of the land of Canaan.

But, the hands of Moses, were weary, so they took a stone, and put under him, and he sat thereupon, - and, Aaron and Hur, upheld his hands - on this side, one and on that side, one, and so his hands became steady, until the going in of the sun.

Now, I know, that, greater, is Yahweh than all the gods, - Even in the thing wherein they were arrogant over them.

And it came to pass on the third day, when the morning had come, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a heavy cloud upon the mount, and the sound of a horn, loud exceedingly, - and all the people who were in the camp trembled.

And, all the people, were witnessing the voices and the torches, and the sound of the horn, and the mountain smoking, - so then the people were struck with awe and shrank back, and stood afar off.

And all the people of themselves brake off the rings of gold which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

And Moses turned and went down out of the mount, with the two tables of testimony in his hand, - tables written upon on both sides of them, on this and on that, were they written.

Now as for, the tables, the work of God, they were, - and, as for the writing, the writing of God, it was, graven upon the tables.

And Moses saw the people, that unbridled, they were, - for Aaron had given them the rein, for a whispering, among their enemies.

And Yahweh said unto Moses - Hew thee two tables of stone, like the first, - and I will write upon the tables the words which were upon the first tables which thou didst break in pieces;

Yea they brought in - the men with the women, - all who were willing-hearted, brought in - bracelets and nose-ornaments and rings, and buckles, all manner of jewels of gold, even every man who waved a wave-offering of gold unto Yahweh.

And, all the women who were wise-hearted, with their hands, did spin, - and brought in that which they had spun - the blue, and the purple, the crimson, and the fine linen.

Then came in all the wise men who were doing all the holy work, - man by man from his work which, they, were doing;

So Moses gave commandment and they passed a proclamation throughout the camp, saying, Let, neither man nor woman, make any more material for the holy heave-offering. So the people were restrained from bringing in.

Thus were they to be double beneath, and at the same time, should they be entire, at the top thereof, into each ring, thus, did he for them both, for the two corners.

Thus were there to be eight boards, and, their sockets of silver, were sixteen sockets, two sockets apiece under each board.

and the five pillars thereof and their hooks, and he overlaid their capitals and their cross-rods, with gold, but, their five sockets, were of bronze.

and the cherubim were spreading out their wings on high making a shelter with their wings over the propitiatory, with, their faces, one towards the other, towards the propitiatory, were the faces of the cherubim,

near to the border, were the rings, as receptacles for the staves, for lifting the table;

and he made the utensils which were to be upon the table, its dishes and its pans and its bowls, and its basins for pouring out therewith, of pure gold.

And he made the lampstand, of pure gold, of beaten work, made he the lampstand, its base and its shafts, its cups, its apples and its blossoms were, of the same;

their apples and their brunches were of the same, all of it one beaten work, of pure gold.

And he made the incense altar, of acacia wood, - a cubit, the length thereof, and, a cubit, the breadth thereof, foursquare, and two cubits the height thereof, of the same, were the horns thereof.

And he made the horns thereof, upon the four corners thereof, of the same, were the horns thereof, - and he overlaid it with bronze.

All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen.

And, the sockets for the pillars, were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and their connecting-rods of silver, - and the overlaying of their capitals, was silver, - and, they themselves, were filleted with silver, even all the pillars of the court,

and, their pillars, were four, and, their sockets, four, of bronze, - their hooks, of silver, and the overlaying of their capitals and their connecting-rods, of silver.

These, are the details of the habitation - the habitation of testimony, which were detailed at the bidding of Moses, - the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.

And, the silver of them who were numbered of the assembly, was one hundred talents, - and one thousand, seven hundred and seventy-five shekels by the shekel of the sanctuary;

And it came to pass that the hundred talents of silver were used for casting the sockets of the sanctuary, and the sockets of the veil, - one hundred sockets with the hundred talents a talent for a socket.

And of the blue and the purple, and the crimson, made they cloths of variegated stuff for ministering in the sanctuary, - and they made the holy garments which were for Aaron, - As Yahweh commanded Moses.

and the fourth row, a Tarshish stone, a sardonyx, and a jasper, - enclosed in ouches of gold, when they were set

And as for the stones, after the names of the sons of Israel, they were twelve, after their names, - with the engravings of a seal-ring, each one, after his name, for the twelve tribes,

when they were entering into the tent of meeting, and when they were drawing near unto the altar, then used they to bathe, - As Yahweh commanded Moses.
