1:1 And Jehovah called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tent of meeting, saying,

1:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man of you offereth an oblation unto Jehovah, ye shall offer your oblation of the cattle, even of the herd and of the flock.

1:3 If his oblation be a burnt-offering of the herd, he shall offer it a male without blemish: he shall offer it at the door of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before Jehovah.

1:4 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the burnt-offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.

1:5 And he shall kill the bullock before Jehovah: and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall present the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is at the door of the tent of meeting.

1:6 And he shall flay the burnt-offering, and cut it into its pieces.

1:7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay wood in order upon the fire;

1:8 and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:

1:9 but its inwards and its legs shall he wash with water: and the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt-offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah.

1:10 And if his oblation be of the flock, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt-offering; he shall offer it a male without blemish.

1:11 And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before Jehovah: and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.

1:12 And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:

1:13 but the inwards and the legs shall he wash with water; and the priest shall offer the whole, and burn it upon the altar: it is a burnt-offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah.

1:14 And if his oblation to Jehovah be a burnt-offering of birds, then he shall offer his oblation of turtle-doves, or of young pigeons.

1:15 And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be drained out on the side of the altar;

1:16 and he shall take away its crop with the filth thereof, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes:

1:17 and he shall rend it by the wings thereof, but shall not divide it asunder. And the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt-offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah.

69:16 Answer me, O Jehovah; for thy lovingkindness is good: According to the multitude of thy tender mercies turn thou unto me.

69:17 And hide not thy face from thy servant; For I am in distress; answer me speedily.

69:18 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: Ransom me because of mine enemies.

69:19 Thou knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor: Mine adversaries are all before thee.

69:20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: And I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; And for comforters, but I found none.

69:21 They gave me also gall for my food; And in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

69:22 Let their table before them become a snare; And when they are in peace, let it become a trap.

69:23 Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see; And make their loins continually to shake.

69:24 Pour out thine indignation upon them, And let the fierceness of thine anger overtake them.

69:25 Let their habitation be desolate; Let none dwell in their tents.

69:26 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; And they tell of the sorrow of those whom thou hast wounded.

69:27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity; And let them not come into thy righteousness.

69:28 Let them be blotted out of the book of life, And not be written with the righteous.

69:29 But I am poor and sorrowful: Let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.

69:30 I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify him with thanksgiving.

69:31 And it will please Jehovah better than an ox, Or a bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

69:32 The meek have seen it, and are glad: Ye that seek after God, let your heart live.

69:33 For Jehovah heareth the needy, And despiseth not his prisoners.

69:34 Let heaven and earth praise him, The seas, and everything that moveth therein.

69:35 For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah; And they shall abide there, and have it in possession.

69:36 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it; And they that love his name shall dwell therein.

4:30 And he said, How shall we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable shall we set it forth?

4:31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the earth, though it be less than all the seeds that are upon the earth,

4:32 yet when it is sown, groweth up, and becometh greater than all the herbs, and putteth out great branches; so that the birds of the heaven can lodge under the shadow thereof.

4:33 And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it;

4:34 and without a parable spake he not unto them: but privately to his own disciples he expounded all things.

4:35 And on that day, when even was come, he saith unto them, Let us go over unto the other side.

4:36 And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.

4:37 And there ariseth a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, insomuch that the boat was now filling.

4:38 And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion: and they awake him, and say unto him, Teacher, carest thou not that we perish?

4:39 And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

4:40 And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful? have ye not yet faith?

4:41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
