1 ¶And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Command the children
of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices
made by fire, for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer
unto me in their due season. 3 And thou shalt say unto them, This
is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the LORD;
two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual
burnt offering. 4 The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning,
and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even; 5 And a tenth part
of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth
part of an hin of beaten oil. 6 It is a continual burnt offering,
which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice
made by fire unto the LORD. 7 And the drink offering thereof shall
be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb: in the holy place
shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the LORD for
a drink offering. 8 And the other lamb shalt thou offer at even:
as the meat offering of the morning, and as the drink offering thereof,
thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour
unto the LORD.
9 ¶And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot,
and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil,
and the drink offering thereof: 10 This is the burnt offering of
every sabbath, beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink
offering. 11 And in the beginnings of your months ye shall offer
a burnt offering unto the LORD; two young bullocks, and one ram,
seven lambs of the first year without spot; 12 And three tenth deals
of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one bullock;
and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil,
for one ram; 13 And a several tenth deal of flour mingled with oil
for a meat offering unto one lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet
savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD. 14 And their drink
offerings shall be half an hin of wine unto a bullock, and the third
part of an hin unto a ram, and a fourth part of an hin unto a lamb:
this is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months
of the year. 15 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering unto
the LORD shall be offered, beside the continual burnt offering,
and his drink offering.
16 ¶And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover
of the LORD. 17 And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast:
seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten. 18 In the first day
shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work
therein: 19 But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt
offering unto the LORD; two young bullocks, and one ram, and seven
lambs of the first year: they shall be unto you without blemish:
20 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil: three
tenth deals shall ye offer for a bullock, and two tenth deals for
a ram; 21 A several tenth deal shalt thou offer for every lamb,
throughout the seven lambs: 22 And one goat for a sin offering,
to make an atonement for you. 23 Ye shall offer these beside the
burnt offering in the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.
24 After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven
days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour
unto the LORD: it shall be offered beside the continual burnt offering,
and his drink offering. 25 And on the seventh day ye shall have
an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work. 26 Also in the
day of the firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat offering unto the
LORD, after your weeks be out, ye shall have an holy convocation;
ye shall do no servile work: 27 But ye shall offer the burnt offering
for a sweet savour unto the LORD; two young bullocks, one ram, seven
lambs of the first year; 28 And their meat offering of flour mingled
with oil, three tenth deals unto one bullock, two tenth deals unto
one ram, 29 A several tenth deal unto one lamb, throughout the seven
lambs; 30 And one kid of the goats, to make an atonement for you.
31 Ye shall offer them beside the continual burnt offering, and
his meat offering, (they shall be unto you without blemish) and
their drink offerings.

Proverbs
20
|

1 ¶Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived
thereby is not wise.
2 ¶The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh
him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
3 ¶It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool
will be meddling.
4 ¶The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall
he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5 ¶Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of
understanding will draw it out.
6 ¶Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful
man who can find?
7 ¶The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed
after him.
8 ¶A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away
all evil with his eyes.
9 ¶Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
10 ¶Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike
abomination to the LORD.
11 ¶Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure,
and whether it be right.
12 ¶The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even
both of them.
13 ¶Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes,
and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
14 ¶It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is
gone his way, then he boasteth.
15 ¶There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge
are a precious jewel.
16 ¶Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge
of him for a strange woman.
17 ¶Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth
shall be filled with gravel.
18 ¶Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice
make war.
19 ¶He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore
meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
20 ¶Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put
out in obscure darkness.
21 ¶An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the
end thereof shall not be blessed.
22 ¶Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD,
and he shall save thee.
23 ¶Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false
balance is not good.
24 ¶Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand
his own way?
25 ¶It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and
after vows to make enquiry.
26 ¶A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over
them.
27 ¶The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the
inward parts of the belly.
28 ¶Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden
by mercy.
29 ¶The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of
old men is the gray head.
30 ¶The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the
inward parts of the belly.

John
1
|

1 ¶In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All
things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made
that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of
men.
5 ¶And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended
it not. 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7
The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that
all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but
was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light,
which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in
the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him
not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But
as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons
of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born,
not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,
but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,
(and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the
Father,) full of grace and truth.
15 ¶John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of
whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for
he was before me. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and
grace for grace. 17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and
truth came by Jesus Christ. 18 No man hath seen God at any time;
the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath
declared him.
19 ¶And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and
Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? 20 And he confessed,
and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. 21 And they
asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art
thou that prophet? And he answered, No. 22 Then said they unto him,
Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What
sayest thou of thyself? 23 He said, I am the voice of one crying
in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the
prophet Esaias. 24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then,
if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? 26
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth
one among you, whom ye know not; 27 He it is, who coming after me
is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to
unloose. 28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where
John was baptizing.
29 ¶The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold
the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. 30 This
is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before
me: for he was before me. 31 And I knew him not: but that he should
be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from
heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. 33 And I knew him not:
but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me,
Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on
him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. 34 And
I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God. 35 Again the
next day after John stood, and two of his disciples; 36 And looking
upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
37 ¶And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them,
What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being
interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou? 39 He saith unto them,
Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him
that day: for it was about the tenth hour. 40 One of the two which
heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We
have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said,
Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which
is by interpretation, A stone.
43 ¶The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth
Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me. 44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida,
the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith
unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets,
did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. 46 And Nathanael
said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip
saith unto him, Come and see. 47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him,
and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered
and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast
under the fig tree, I saw thee. 49 Nathanael answered and saith
unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.
50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I
saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater
things than these. 51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say
unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of
God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
