24:1 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto Jehovah, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off:

24:2 and Moses alone shall come near unto Jehovah; but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.

24:3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of Jehovah, and all the ordinances: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which Jehovah hath spoken will we do.

24:4 And Moses wrote all the words of Jehovah, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

24:5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings of oxen unto Jehovah.

24:6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

24:7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that Jehovah hath spoken will we do, and be obedient.

24:8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which Jehovah hath made with you concerning all these words.

24:9 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:

24:10 and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the very heaven for clearness.

24:11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: and they beheld God, and did eat and drink.

24:12 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee the tables of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou mayest teach them.

24:13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister: and Moses went up into the mount of God.

24:14 And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: whosoever hath a cause, let him come near unto them.

24:15 And Moses went up into the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.

24:16 And the glory of Jehovah abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

24:17 And the appearance of the glory of Jehovah was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.

24:18 And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

59:1 For the Chief Musician; set to Al-tashheth. A Psalm of David. Michtam; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: Set me on high from them that rise up against me.

59:2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, And save me from the bloodthirsty men.

59:3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul; The mighty gather themselves together against me: Not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Jehovah.

59:4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: Awake thou to help me, and behold.

59:5 Even thou, O Jehovah God of hosts, the God of Israel, Arise to visit all the nations: Be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. [Selah

59:6 They return at evening, they howl like a dog, And go round about the city.

59:7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth; Swords are in their lips: For who, say they, doth hear?

59:8 But thou, O Jehovah, wilt laugh at them; Thou wilt have all the nations in derision.

59:9 Because of his strength I will give heed unto thee; For God is my high tower.

59:10 My God with his lovingkindness will meet me: God will let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

59:11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: Scatter them by thy power, and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

59:12 For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips, Let them even be taken in their pride, And for cursing and lying which they speak.

59:13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, so that they shall be no more: And let them know that God ruleth in Jacob, Unto the ends of the earth. [Selah

59:14 And at evening let them return, let them howl like a dog, And go round about the city.

59:15 They shall wander up and down for food, And tarry all night if they be not satisfied.

59:16 But I will sing of thy strength; Yea, I will sing aloud of thy lovingkindness in the morning: For thou hast been my high tower, And a refuge in the day of my distress.

59:17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing praises: For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy.

27:45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

27:47 And some of them that stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calleth Elijah.

27:48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

27:49 And the rest said, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to save him.

27:50 And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.

27:51 And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake; and the rocks were rent;

27:52 and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints that had fallen asleep were raised;

27:53 and coming forth out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared unto many.

27:54 Now the centurion, and they that were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

27:55 And many women were there beholding from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:

27:56 among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

27:57 And when even was come, there came a rich man from Arimathæa, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus’ disciple:

27:58 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded it to be given up.

27:59 And Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

27:60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and departed.

27:61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

27:62 Now on the morrow, which is the day after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together unto Pilate,

27:63 saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was yet alive, After three days I rise again.

27:64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest haply his disciples come and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: and the last error will be worse than the first.

27:65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a guard: go, make it as sure as ye can.

27:66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, the guard being with them.
