10:1 Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.

10:2 And fire came forth from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.

10:3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” Aaron held his peace.

10:4 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”

10:5 So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses had said.

10:6 Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Don’t let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear your clothes; that you don’t die, and that he not be angry with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.

10:7 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.

10:8 Yahweh spoke to Aaron, saying,

10:9 “Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you don’t die: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations:

10:10 and that you are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean;

10:11 and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses.”

10:12 Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;

10:13 and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire: for so I am commanded.

10:14 The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.

10:15 The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh: and it shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever; as Yahweh has commanded.”

10:16 Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,

10:17 “Why haven’t you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh?

10:18 Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”

10:19 Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, this day they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me: and if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of Yahweh?”

10:20 When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.

73:1 A Psalm by Asaph. Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.

73:2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone. My steps had nearly slipped.

73:3 For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

73:4 For there are no struggles in their death, but their strength is firm.

73:5 They are free from burdens of men, neither are they plagued like other men.

73:6 Therefore pride is like a chain around their neck. Violence covers them like a garment.

73:7 Their eyes bulge with fat. Their minds pass the limits of conceit.

73:8 They scoff and speak with malice. In arrogance, they threaten oppression.

73:9 They have set their mouth in the heavens. Their tongue walks through the earth.

73:10 Therefore their people return to them, and they drink up waters of abundance.

73:11 They say, “How does God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?”

73:12 Behold, these are the wicked. Being always at ease, they increase in riches.

73:13 Surely in vain I have cleansed my heart, and washed my hands in innocence,

73:14 For all day long have I been plagued, and punished every morning.

6:45 Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat, and to go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself sent the multitude away.

6:46 After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.

6:47 When evening had come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he was alone on the land.

6:48 Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea, and he would have passed by them,

6:49 but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;

6:50 for they all saw him, and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them, and said to them, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”

6:51 He got into the boat with them; and the wind ceased, and they were very amazed among themselves, and marveled;

6:52 for they hadn’t understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.

6:53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore.

6:54 When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,

6:55 and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick, on their mats, to where they heard he was.

6:56 Wherever he entered, into villages, or into cities, or into the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged him that they might touch just the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.
