'Lord' in the Bible

The Lord spoke to Moses,

but Nadab and Abihu died when they presented unauthorized fire before the Lord.

For the Lord had said to them that they would all die in the wilderness. None of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

“Our father died in the wilderness, but he was not among Korah’s followers, who gathered together against the Lord. Instead, he died because of his own sin, and he had no sons.

Moses brought their case before the Lord,

and the Lord answered him,

If his father has no brothers, give his inheritance to the nearest relative of his clan, and he will take possession of it. This is to be a statutory ordinance for the Israelites as the Lord commanded Moses.”

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go up this mountain of the Abarim range and see the land that I have given the Israelites.

So Moses appealed to the Lord,

“May the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the community

The Lord replied to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man who has the Spirit in him, and lay your hands on him.

He will stand before Eleazar who will consult the Lord for him with the decision of the Urim. He and all the Israelites with him, even the entire community, will go out and come back in at his command.”

Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua, had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the entire community,

laid his hands on him, and commissioned him, as the Lord had spoken through Moses.

The Lord spoke to Moses,

And say to them: This is the fire offering you are to present to the Lord:“Each day present two unblemished year-old male lambs as a regular burnt offering.

It is a regular burnt offering established at Mount Sinai for a pleasing aroma, a fire offering to the Lord.

The drink offering is to be a quart with each lamb. Pour out the offering of beer to the Lord in the sanctuary area.

Offer the second lamb at twilight, along with the same kind of grain offering and drink offering as in the morning. It is a fire offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

“At the beginning of each of your months present a burnt offering to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old—all unblemished—

and two quarts of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering for each lamb. It is a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma, a fire offering to the Lord.

And one male goat is to be offered as a sin offering to the Lord, in addition to the regular burnt offering with its drink offering.

“The Passover to the Lord comes in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month.

Present a fire offering, a burnt offering to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old. Your animals are to be unblemished.

You are to offer the same food each day for seven days as a fire offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord. It is to be offered with its drink offering and the regular burnt offering.

“On the day of firstfruits, you are to hold a sacred assembly when you present an offering of new grain to the Lord at your Festival of Weeks; you are not to do any daily work.

Present a burnt offering for a pleasing aroma to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old,

Offer a burnt offering as a pleasing aroma to the Lord: one young bull, one ram, seven male lambs a year old—all unblemished—

These are in addition to the monthly and regular burnt offerings with their prescribed grain offerings and drink offerings. They are a pleasing aroma, a fire offering to the Lord.

Present a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma: one young bull, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old. All your animals are to be unblemished.

“You are to hold a sacred assembly on the fifteenth day of the seventh month; you must not do any daily work. You are to celebrate a seven-day festival for the Lord.

Present a burnt offering, a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to the Lord: 13 young bulls, two rams, and 14 male lambs a year old. They are to be unblemished.

Present a burnt offering, a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to the Lord: one bull, one ram, seven male lambs a year old—all unblemished—

“You must offer these to the Lord at your appointed times in addition to your vow and freewill offerings, whether burnt, grain, drink, or fellowship offerings.”

So Moses told the Israelites everything the Lord had commanded him.

Moses told the leaders of the Israelite tribes, “This is what the Lord has commanded:

When a man makes a vow to the Lord or swears an oath to put himself under an obligation, he must not break his word; he must do whatever he has promised.

“When a woman in her father’s house during her youth makes a vow to the Lord or puts herself under an obligation,

But if her father prohibits her on the day he hears about it, none of her vows and none of the obligations she put herself under are binding. The Lord will absolve her because her father has prohibited her.

But if her husband prohibits her when he hears about it, he will cancel her vow that is binding or the rash commitment she herself made, and the Lord will forgive her.

But if her husband cancels them on the day he hears about it, nothing that came from her lips, whether her vows or her obligation, is binding. Her husband has canceled them, and the Lord will absolve her.

These are the statutes that the Lord commanded Moses concerning the relationship between a man and his wife, or between a father and his daughter in his house during her youth.

The Lord spoke to Moses,

They waged war against Midian, as the Lord had commanded Moses, and killed every male.

“Yet they are the ones who, at Balaam’s advice, incited the Israelites to unfaithfulness against the Lord in the Peor incident, so that the plague came against the Lord’s community.

Then Eleazar the priest said to the soldiers who had gone to battle, “This is the legal statute the Lord commanded Moses:

The Lord told Moses,

Set aside a tribute for the Lord from what belongs to the fighting men who went out to war: one out of every 500 humans, cattle, donkeys, sheep, and goats.

Take the tribute from their half and give it to Eleazar the priest as a contribution to the Lord.

So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.

and the tribute to the Lord was 675from the sheep and goats;

from the 36,000 cattle,the tribute to the Lord was 72;

from the 30,500 donkeys,the tribute to the Lord was 61;

and from the 16,000 people,the tribute to the Lord was 32 people.

Moses gave the tribute to Eleazar the priest as a contribution for the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

Moses took one out of every 50, selected from the people and the livestock of the Israelites’ half. He gave them to the Levites who perform the duties of the Lord’s tabernacle, as the Lord had commanded him.

So we have presented to the Lord an offering of the gold articles each man found—armlets, bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces—to make atonement for ourselves before the Lord.”

All the gold of the contribution they offered to the Lord, from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, was 420 pounds.

Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds and brought it into the tent of meeting as a memorial for the Israelites before the Lord.

which the Lord struck down before the community of Israel, is good land for livestock, and your servants own livestock.”

Why are you discouraging the Israelites from crossing into the land the Lord has given them?

After they went up as far as Eshcol Valley and saw the land, they discouraged the Israelites from entering the land the Lord had given them.

none except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun, because they did follow the Lord completely.’

Moses replied to them, “If you do this—if you arm yourselves for battle before the Lord,

and every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before the Lord until He has driven His enemies from His presence,

and the land is subdued before the Lord—afterward you may return and be free from obligation to the Lord and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before the Lord.

But if you don’t do this, you will certainly sin against the Lord; be sure your sin will catch up with you.

The Gadites and Reubenites answered Moses, “Your servants will do just as my lord commands.

but your servants are equipped for war before the Lord and will go across to the battle as my lord orders.”

Moses told them, “If the Gadites and Reubenites cross the Jordan with you, every man in battle formation before the Lord, and the land is subdued before you, you are to give them the land of Gilead as a possession.

The Gadites and Reubenites replied, “What the Lord has spoken to your servants is what we will do.

We will cross over in battle formation before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but we will keep our hereditary possession across the Jordan.”

Meanwhile, the Egyptians were burying every firstborn male the Lord had struck down among them, for the Lord had executed judgment against their gods.

The Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho,

The Lord spoke to Moses,

So Moses commanded the Israelites, “This is the land you are to receive by lot as an inheritance, which the Lord commanded to be given to the nine and a half tribes.

The Lord spoke to Moses,

These are the ones the Lord commanded to distribute the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.

The Lord again spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho:

The Lord said to Moses,

Do not make the land unclean where you live and where I reside; for I, Yahweh, reside among the Israelites.”

They said, “Yahweh commanded my lord to give the land as an inheritance by lot to the Israelites. My lord was further commanded by Yahweh to give our brother Zelophehad’s inheritance to his daughters.

So Moses commanded the Israelites at the word of the Lord, “What the tribe of Joseph’s descendants says is right.

This is what the Lord has commanded concerning Zelophehad’s daughters: They may marry anyone they like provided they marry within a clan of their ancestral tribe.

The daughters of Zelophehad did as the Lord commanded Moses.

These are the commands and ordinances the Lord commanded the Israelites through Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.

In the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first of the month, Moses told the Israelites everything the Lord had commanded him to say to them.

“The Lord our God spoke to us at Horeb: ‘You have stayed at this mountain long enough.

See, I have set the land before you. Enter and take possession of the land the Lord swore to give to your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and their future descendants.’

The Lord your God has so multiplied you that today you are as numerous as the stars of the sky.

May Yahweh, the God of your fathers, increase you a thousand times more, and bless you as He promised you.

“We then set out from Horeb and went across all the great and terrible wilderness you saw on the way to the hill country of the Amorites, just as the Lord our God had commanded us. When we reached Kadesh-barnea,

I said to you: You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the Lord our God is giving us.

See, the Lord your God has set the land before you. Go up and take possession of it as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has told you. Do not be afraid or discouraged.

They took some of the fruit from the land in their hands, carried it down to us, and brought us back a report: ‘The land the Lord our God is giving us is good.’

“But you were not willing to go up, rebelling against the command of the Lord your God.

You grumbled in your tents and said, ‘The Lord brought us out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites so they would destroy us, because He hated us.

The Lord your God who goes before you will fight for you, just as you saw Him do for you in Egypt.

And you saw in the wilderness how the Lord your God carried you as a man carries his son all along the way you traveled until you reached this place.

But in spite of this you did not trust the Lord your God,
