But, every woman, praying, or prophesying, with her head, unveiled, putteth to shame her head, - for it is, one and the same, with her having been shaven.

Let, a woman, in quietness, be learning in all submission;

And, considering the matter, he came unto the house of Mary, the mother of John who was surnamed Mark, where a considerable number were gathered together and praying. And, when he had knocked at the door of the porch, there came unto it a maiden to hearken, by name Rhoda;

And the sons of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones, - all their cattle also and all their flocks and all their substance, carried they off as a prey;

Righteous is Yahweh, for, against his bidding, had I rebelled, - Hear, I pray you, all ye peoples, and see my pain, My virgins and my young men, have gone into exile.

The young men of Aven and Pi-beseth, by the sword, shall fall; And lo! into captivity, stall they themselves wend their way. And in Tehaphnehes, hath the day become dark, Because I have broken, there the yoke-bare of Egypt, And there shall be made to cease therein the pride of her strength, - She, a cloud, shall cover her! And her daughter into captivity, shall wend their way.

And Moses said unto them, - Have ye saved alive every female?

Now, therefore, slay ye every male among the young, - every woman also that hath cohabited with man, slay ye. But all the young of womankind that hay, not cohabited with man, preserve alive for yourselves.

And the man said, This, one, now, is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh! This, one shall be called Woman, for, out of a man, hath this one been taken.

For, man, is not, of woman, but, woman, of man;

Now I praise you, that, in all things, ye have me in remembrance, and, even as I delivered unto you the instructions, ye hold them fast. But I wish you to know - that, the head of every man, is, the Christ, and, the head of a woman, is, the man; and, the head of the Christ, is, God. Every man, praying, or prophesying, having anything upon his head, putteth to shame his head; read more.
But, every woman, praying, or prophesying, with her head, unveiled, putteth to shame her head, - for it is, one and the same, with her having been shaven. For, if a woman doth not veil herself, let her also be shorn; but, if it were a shame in a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled. For, a man, indeed, ought not to be veiling his head, being, the image and glory of God, - but, the woman, is the glory of man; For, man, is not, of woman, but, woman, of man; For also man was not created, for the sake of the woman, but woman, for the sake of the man. For this cause, ought the woman to have, permission, upon her head, because of the messengers. Howbeit, neither is woman apart from man, nor man apart from woman - in the Lord; For, just as the woman is of the man, so, also the man, is through means of the woman; - but, all things, are of God. Among your own selves, judge ye, - Is it becoming for a woman, - unveiled, to be praying unto God? Doth not, even nature herself, teach you - that, if, a man, have long hair, it is a dishonour to him; But, if, a woman, have long hair, it is a glory to her, for, her long hair, instead of a veil, hath been given to her. But, if anyone thinketh to be contentious, we, have no such custom, - nor yet the assemblies of God.

I am minded, therefore, that - the men in every place be offering prayer, uplifting hands of lovingkindness, apart from anger and disputings; In the same way, that, the women, in seemly attire, with modesty and sober-mindedness, be adorning themselves, - not with plaitings and ornamentation of gold, or with pearls, or with costly apparel, - But, which becometh women promising godliness, through means of good works. read more.
Let, a woman, in quietness, be learning in all submission;

Then came near the daughters of Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh pertaining to the families of Manasseh, son of Joseph, - these being the names of his daughters, Mahlah Noah and Hoglah and Milcah, and Tirzah. So they stood before Moses and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes, and all the assembly, - at the entrance of the tent of meeting, saying: Our father, died in the desert, although, he, was not among the assembly that conspired against Yahweh, in the assembly of Korah, - but, in his own sin, died he; and sons, had he none. read more.
Wherefore should the name of our father be withdrawn out of the midst of his family, because he had no son? Give ye unto us a possession, ill the midst of the brethren of our father. And Moses brought near their cause before Yahweh. A right thing, are the daughters of Zelophehad speaking: Thou shalt, surely give, them a possession for an inheritance, in the midst of the brethren of their father, - and shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass over unto them. And unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak, saying, - When, any man, shall die, having no son, then shall ye cause his inheritance to pass over to his daughter. And, if he hath no daughter, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his, brethren. And if he hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto the brethren of his father. And, if his father hath no brethren, then shall ye give his inheritance unto his blood-relation that is near unto him of his family, and he shall possess it, - So shall it serve the sons of Israel as a regulative statute, As Yahweh commanded Moses.

But, Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, - and, these, are the names of his daughters, Mahlah and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. And they had come near, before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, Yahweh, commanded Moses, to give us an inheritance in the midst of our brethren, - And he had given them, according to the bidding of Yahweh, an inheritance, in the midst of the brethren of their father. Thus there fell ten portions to Manasseh, - besides the land of Gilead, and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan; read more.
because, the daughters of Manasseh, received an inheritance in the midst of his sons, - and, the land of Gilead, became the possession of the sons of Manasseh that remained.

And there were found no women so fair as the daughters of Job, in all the land, - and their father gave them an inheritance, in the midst of their brethren.

And, Deborah, a woman who was a prophetess, wife of Lapidoth, she, was judging Israel, at that time:

Then said Deborah unto Barak - Up! for, this, is the day on which Yahweh hath delivered Sisera into thy hand, hath not, Yahweh, gone forth before thee? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, with ten thousand men after him.

Then sang Deborah, and Barak, son of Abinoam, - on that day, saying: -

Now, when Athaliah heard the noise of the people who were running, and those who were praising the king, - then came she unto the people in the house of Yahweh; and looked, and lo! the king, standing by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the trumpets by the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets, and the singers, with instruments of song, and such as led the offering of praise, then Athaliah rent her garments, and said, Conspiracy! conspiracy! Then Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds, officers of the force, and said unto them, Take her forth within the ranks, and he that cometh in after her let him be slain with the sword, - for, said the priest, Ye must not slay her in the house of Yahweh! read more.

But Jehosheba daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were being slain - him and his nurse, into the bedchamber, - so she hid him from the face of Athaliah, that he was not slain. And he was with her, in the house of Yahweh, hiding himself, six years, - while, Athaliah, was reigning over the land. read more.
But, in the seventh year, Jehoiada sent and took the captains over hundreds, of the Carian body-guard, and of the runners, and brought them unto him, in the house of Yahweh, - and, when he had solemnised a Covenant with them, and put them on oath, in the house of Yahweh, then shewed he them the king's son; and commanded them, saying - This, is the thing which ye must do, - A third part of you, will be coming in on the sabbath, and keeping the watch of the house of the king; and, a third, in the side-gate; and, a third, in the gate behind the runners, - so shall ye keep the watch of the house, by turns. And, two parts of you, are all that are going out on the sabbath, - so shall ye keep the watch of the house of Yahweh, as touching the king. Thus shall ye encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand, and, he that cometh within the ranks, let him be slain, - so be ye with the king, when he cometh out and when he goeth in. And the captains of hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded, and they took every man his men who were coming in on the sabbath, with them who were going out on the sabbath, - and came unto Jehoiada the priest. And the priest gave unto the captains of hundreds the spears and the shields which belonged to King David, - which were in the house of Yahweh. And the runners stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right corner of the house, as far as the left corner of the house, by the altar and the house, - near the king, round about. Then brought he forth the king's son, and set upon him the crown, and the testimony, and they made him king, and anointed him, - and clapped their hands, and said - May the king live! And, when Athaliah heard the noise of the runners, the people, then came she in unto the people, in the house of Yahweh, and looked, and lo! the king, standing by the pillar, as the custom was, and the captains and the trumpeters, by the king, and, all the people of the land, rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets, - so Athaliah rent her garments, and cried out - Conspiracy! conspiracy! And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds - officers of the force, and said unto them - Take her forth into the inside of the ranks, and, he that cometh in after her, ye are to slay with the sword. For the priest said, Let her not be slain, in the house of Yahweh. So they made way for her, and she entered the road by which the horses approached the house of the king, and was slain there.

And it came to pass that he was with them, in the house of God, hidden six years,-while, Athaliah, was reigning over the land.

Now, the serpent, was more crafty than any living thing of the field which Yahweh God had made, so he said unto the woman, Can it really be that God hath said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

And Yahweh God called unto the man, - and said to him, Where art thou? And he said, The sound of thee, heard I in the garden, and I was afraid, for, naked, was I, so I hid myself. And he said, Who told thee that, naked, thou wast? Of the tree whereof I commanded thee not to eat, hast thou eaten? And the man said, - The woman whom thou didst put with me, she, gave me of the tree, so I did eat. Then said Yahweh God to the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, the serpent, deceived me, so I did eat. Then said Yahweh God unto the serpent - Because thou hast done this, Accursed, art thou above every tame-beast, and above every wild-beast of the field, - on thy belly, shall thou go, and dust, shalt thou eat all the days of thy life. And enmity, will I put between thee, and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed, - He shall crush thy head, but, thou, shalt crush his heel. Unto the woman, he said, I will, increase, thy pain of pregnancy, In pain, shalt thou year children, - Yet, unto thy husband, shall be thy hinging, Though, he, rule over thee.

But, teaching - unto a woman, I do not permit, nor yet to have authority over a man, - but to be in quietness; For, Adam, first was formed, then Eve, And, Adam, was not deceived, whereas, the woman, having been wholly deceived, hath come to be, in transgression; read more.

Boisterous, is she, and rebellious, In her house, abide not her feet; Now outside, now in the broadways, and, near every corner, she lieth in wait: So she caught him, and kissed him, and, embolding her face, she said to him: Peace-offerings, are by me, to-day, have I paid my vows; For this cause, came I forth to meet thee, to seek diligently thy face, and I have found thee: Coverlets, have I spread on my couch of pleasure, dark-hued stuffs, of the yarn of Egypt; I have sprinkled my bed, with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon: Come! let us take our fill of endearments, until morning, let us delight ourselves with caresses; For the husband is not in his house, he hath gone on a journey afar; A bag of silver, hath he taken in his hand, On the day of the full moon, will he enter his house. She turneth him aside, with her great persuasiveness, - with the flattery of her lips, she compelleth him: Going after her instantly, as an ox, to the slaughter, he entereth, and, as in fetters, unto the correction of a fool.

The king began crying out again, to bring in the magicians, the Chaldeans and the astrologers, - the king spake and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever it is that shall read this writing, and, the interpretation thereof, shall declare unto me, with purple, shall he be clothed, and have a chain of gold upon his neck, and, as the third in the kingdom, shall he have dominion. Then were coming in all the wise men of the king, - but, the writing, could they not read, nor, the interpretation, make known to the king. Then, King Belshazzar, was greatly terrified, and, his bright looks, were changed upon him, - and, his nobles, were perplexed. The queen, by reason of the words of the king and his nobles, into the house of banqueting, entered, - the queen spake and said, O king! for ages, live! Let not thy thoughts, terrify thee, and, as for thy bright looks, let them not be changed.

Forasmuch as, a distinguished spirit, and knowledge and intelligence, ability to interpret dreams and solve riddles and unravel knotty points, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar, now let, Daniel, be called, and, the interpretation, will he declare.

Was it not, over these things, that Solomon king of Israel sinned - though, among many nations, there was no king such as he, and he was, beloved by his God, and so God gave him to be king over all Israel, - even him, did foreign women, cause to sin.

But, King Solomon, loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, - women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, Hittites: out of the nations concerning whom Yahweh had said unto the sons of Israel - Ye shall not go in unto them, and, they, shall not come in unto you, surely they will turn aside your heart after their gods. Unto these, did Solomon cleave in love. So it came to pass that he had seven hundred wives who were princesses, and three hundred concubines, - and, his wives, turned aside, his heart. read more.
Yea it came to pass, in the old age of Solomon, that, his wives, turned aside his heart after other gods, - his heart therefore was not sound with Yahweh his God, as was the heart of David his father. And Solomon went after Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites. Thus Solomon did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, - and went not fully after Yahweh, as did David his father. Then, did Solomon build a high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, - and for Molech, the abomination of the sons of Ammon; and, thus, did he for all his foreign wives, - who burned incense and offered sacrifices unto their gods. Therefore did Yahweh shew himself angry with Solomon, - because his heart had turned aside from Yahweh God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice; and had been giving command to him concerning this thing, that he should not go away after other gods, - but he had not taken heed unto that which Yahweh had commanded. Wherefore Yahweh said unto Solomon - Forasmuch as this hath come to pass with thee, and thou hast not heeded my covenant and my statutes, which I charged upon thee, I will, rend, the kingdom away from thee, and will give it unto a servant of thine.

Thy daughters in the field - with the sword, shall he slay,- And shall set against thee a siege-wall And cast up against thee an earthwork, And set up against thee a large shield;

When the cut-off boughs thereof are dry, they shall be broken to pieces, Women, coming, are kindling it! For it is not a people of understanding, For this cause, Will he that made him, not have compassion upon him, And, he that formed him, will shew him no favour.

And her daughters that are in the field: with the sword shall be slain: ho shall they know that I am Yahweh.

She, turning saith unto him, in Hebrew - Rabboni! which meaneth, Teacher. read more.
