Numbers 1

1:1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tent of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
1:2 Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, every male, by their polls;
1:3 from twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel, thou and Aaron shall number them by their hosts.
1:4 And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head of his fathers’ house.
1:5 And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you. Of Reuben: Elizur the son of Shedeur.
1:6 Of Simeon: Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
1:7 Of Judah: Nahshon the son of Amminadab.
1:8 Of Issachar: Nethanel the son of Zuar.

1:16 These are they that were called of the congregation, the princes of the tribes of their fathers; they were the heads of the thousands of Israel.
1:17 And Moses and Aaron took these men that are mentioned by name:
1:18 And they assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second month; and they declared their pedigrees after their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, by their polls.
1:19 As Jehovah commanded Moses, so he numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai.
1:20 And the children of Reuben, Israel’s first-born, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:21 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Reuben, were forty and six thousand and five hundred.
1:22 Of the children of Simeon, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, those that were numbered thereof, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:23 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Simeon, were fifty and nine thousand and three hundred.
1:24 Of the children of Gad, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:25 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Gad, were forty and five thousand and fifty.
1:26 Of the children of Judah, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:27 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Judah, were threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred.
1:28 Of the children of Issachar, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:29 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Issachar, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred.
1:30 Of the children of Zebulun, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:31 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Zebulun, were fifty and seven thousand and four hundred.
1:32 Of the children of Joseph, namely the children of Ephraim, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:33 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Ephraim, were forty thousand and five hundred.
1:34 Of the children of Manasseh, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:35 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Manasseh, were thirty and two thousand and two hundred.
1:36 Of the children of Benjamin, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:37 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Benjamin, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred.
1:38 Of the children of Dan, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:39 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Dan, were threescore and two thousand and seven hundred.
1:40 Of the children of Asher, their generations, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;
1:41 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Asher, were forty and one thousand and five hundred.

1:43 those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Napthtali, were fifty and three thousand and four hundred.
1:44 These are they that were numbered, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes of Israel, being twelve men: they were each one for his fathers’ house.
1:45 So all they that were numbered of the children of Israel by their fathers’ houses, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war in Israel;
1:46 even all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.
1:47 But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
1:48 For Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
1:49 Only the tribe of Levi thou shall not number, neither shalt thou take the sum of them among the children of Israel;
1:50 but appoint thou the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all the furniture thereof, and over all that belongeth to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
1:51 And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
1:52 And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, according to their hosts.
1:53 But the Levites shall encamp round about the tabernacle of the testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of the testimony.
1:54 Thus did the children of Israel; according to all that Jehovah commanded Moses, so did they.

Psalm 80:7-19

80:7 Turn us again, O God of hosts; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
80:8 Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt: Thou didst drive out the nations, and plantedst it.
80:9 Thou preparedst room before it, And it took deep root, and filled the land.
80:10 The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, And the boughs thereof were like cedars of God.
80:11 It sent out its branches unto the sea, And its shoots unto the River.
80:12 Why hast thou broken down its walls, So that all they that pass by the way do pluck it?
80:13 The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, And the wild beasts of the field feed on it.
80:14 Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: Look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,
80:15 And the stock which thy right hand planted, And the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
80:16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down: They perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
80:17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, Upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.
80:18 So shall we not go back from thee: Quicken thou us, and we will call upon thy name.
80:19 Turn us again, O Jehovah God of hosts; Cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.

Mark 12:13-27

12:13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might catch him in talk.
12:14 And when they were come, they say unto him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest not for any one; for thou regardest not the person of men, but of a truth teachest the way of God: Is it lawful to give tribute unto Cæsar, or not?
12:15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why make ye trial of me? bring me a denarius, that I may see it.
12:16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Cæsar’s.
12:17 And Jesus said unto them, Render unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled greatly at him.
12:18 And there come unto him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
12:19 Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, If a man’s brother die, and leave a wife behind him, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
12:20 There were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed;
12:21 and the second took her, and died, leaving no seed behind him; and the third likewise:
12:22 and the seven left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.
12:23 In the resurrection whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.
12:24 Jesus said unto them, Is it not for this cause that ye err, that ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?
12:25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as angels in heaven.
12:26 But as touching the dead, that they are raised; have ye not read in the book of Moses, in the place concerning the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: ye do greatly err.
