Leviticus

1 ¶And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering, if he offer
it of the herd; whether it be a male or female, he shall offer it
without blemish before the LORD. 2 And he shall lay his hand upon
the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation: and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle
the blood upon the altar round about. 3 And he shall offer of the
sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire unto the
LORD; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is
upon the inwards, 4 And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on
them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with
the kidneys, it shall he take away. 5 And Aaron's sons shall burn
it on the altar upon the burnt sacrifice, which is upon the wood
that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet
savour unto the LORD.
6 ¶And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace offering unto the
LORD be of the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without
blemish. 7 If he offer a lamb for his offering, then shall he offer
it before the LORD. 8 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of
his offering, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation:
and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood thereof round about upon
the altar. 9 And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering
an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat thereof, and the
whole rump, it shall he take off hard by the backbone; and the fat
that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
10 And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is
by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it
shall he take away. 11 And the priest shall burn it upon the altar:
it is the food of the offering made by fire unto the LORD. 12 And
if his offering be a goat, then he shall offer it before the LORD.
13 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of it, and kill it before
the tabernacle of the congregation: and the sons of Aaron shall
sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round about. 14 And he
shall offer thereof his offering, even an offering made by fire
unto the LORD; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat
that is upon the inwards, 15 And the two kidneys, and the fat that
is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver,
with the kidneys, it shall he take away. 16 And the priest shall
burn them upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by
fire for a sweet savour: all the fat is the LORD'S. 17 It shall
be a perpetual statute for your generations throughout all your
dwellings, that ye eat neither fat nor blood.

Leviticus
4

1 ¶And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children
of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against
any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought
not to be done, and shall do against any of them: 3 If the priest
that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then
let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock
without blemish unto the LORD for a sin offering. 4 And he shall
bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation
before the LORD; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock's head,
and kill the bullock before the LORD. 5 And the priest that is anointed
shall take of the bullock's blood, and bring it to the tabernacle
of the congregation: 6 And the priest shall dip his finger in the
blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the LORD, before
the vail of the sanctuary. 7 And the priest shall put some of the
blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD,
which is in the tabernacle of the congregation; and shall pour all
the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt
offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
8 And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the
sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat
that is upon the inwards, 9 And the two kidneys, and the fat that
is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver,
with the kidneys, it shall he take away, 10 As it was taken off
from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest
shall burn them upon the altar of the burnt offering. 11 And the
skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with
his legs, and his inwards, and his dung, 12 Even the whole bullock
shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place, where
the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where
the ashes are poured out shall he be burnt.
13 ¶And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance,
and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they have
done somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning
things which should not be done, and are guilty; 14 When the sin,
which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation
shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the
tabernacle of the congregation. 15 And the elders of the congregation
shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the LORD:
and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD. 16 And the priest
that is anointed shall bring of the bullock's blood to the tabernacle
of the congregation: 17 And the priest shall dip his finger in some
of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, even
before the vail. 18 And he shall put some of the blood upon the
horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the tabernacle
of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom
of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation. 19 And he shall take all his fat
from him, and burn it upon the altar. 20 And he shall do with the
bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall
he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them,
and it shall be forgiven them. 21 And he shall carry forth the bullock
without the camp, and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it
is a sin offering for the congregation.
22 ¶When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through ignorance
against any of the commandments of the LORD his God concerning things
which should not be done, and is guilty; 23 Or if his sin, wherein
he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering,
a kid of the goats, a male without blemish: 24 And he shall lay
his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where
they kill the burnt offering before the LORD: it is a sin offering.
25 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with
his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering,
and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt
offering. 26 And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the
fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall make
an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven
him.
27 ¶And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while
he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning
things which ought not to be done, and be guilty; 28 Or if his sin,
which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring
his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for
his sin which he hath sinned. 29 And he shall lay his hand upon
the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place
of the burnt offering. 30 And the priest shall take of the blood
thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar
of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the
bottom of the altar. 31 And he shall take away all the fat thereof,
as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings;
and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour unto
the LORD; and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and it
shall be forgiven him. 32 And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering,
he shall bring it a female without blemish. 33 And he shall lay
his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin
offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering. 34 And
the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his
finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering,
and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar:
35 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the
lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and
the priest shall burn them upon the altar, according to the offerings
made by fire unto the LORD: and the priest shall make an atonement
for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall be forgiven him.

Psalms

1 ¶Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great;
thou art clothed with honour and majesty. 2 Who coverest thyself
with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like
a curtain: 3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters:
who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of
the wind: 4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming
fire: 5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not
be removed for ever. 6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a
garment: the waters stood above the mountains. 7 At thy rebuke they
fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. 8 They go up
by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which
thou hast founded for them. 9 Thou hast set a bound that they may
not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
10 ¶He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the
hills. 11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild
asses quench their thirst. 12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven
have their habitation, which sing among the branches. 13 He watereth
the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit
of thy works. 14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and
herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of
the earth; 15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil
to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.
16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon,
which he hath planted; 17 Where the birds make their nests: as for
the stork, the fir trees are her house. 18 The high hills are a
refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.
19 ¶He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going
down. 20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the
beasts of the forest do creep forth. 21 The young lions roar after
their prey, and seek their meat from God. 22 The sun ariseth, they
gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens. 23
Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.
24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made
them all: the earth is full of thy riches. 25 So is this great and
wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and
great beasts. 26 There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom
thou hast made to play therein. 27 These wait all upon thee; that
thou mayest give them their meat in due season. 28 That thou givest
them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they are filled with
good. 29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away
their breath, they die, and return to their dust. 30 Thou sendest
forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of
the earth.
31 ¶The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall
rejoice in his works. 32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth:
he toucheth the hills, and they smoke. 33 I will sing unto the LORD
as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my
being. 34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in
the LORD. 35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let
the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye
the LORD.

Corinthians 12

1 ¶Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you
ignorant. 2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these
dumb idols, even as ye were led. 3 Wherefore I give you to understand,
that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed:
and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy
Ghost. 4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God
which worketh all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit
is given to every man to profit withal. 8 For to one is given by
the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge
by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another
the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10 To another the working
of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits;
to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation
of tongues: 11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit,
dividing to every man severally as he will.
12 ¶For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members
of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we
be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all
made to drink into one Spirit. 14 For the body is not one member,
but many. 15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I
am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16 And if the
ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is
it therefore not of the body? 17 If the whole body were an eye,
where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the
smelling? 18 But now hath God set the members every one of them
in the body, as it hath pleased him. 19 And if they were all one
member, where were the body? 20 But now are they many members, yet
but one body. 21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no
need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of
you. 22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to
be more feeble, are necessary: 23 And those members of the body,
which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more
abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the
body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which
lacked: 25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that
the members should have the same care one for another. 26 And whether
one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member
be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
27 ¶Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 28
And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily
prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings,
helps, governments, diversities of tongues. 29 Are all apostles?
are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do
all interpret? 31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew
I unto you a more excellent way.

Corinthians 13

1 ¶Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have
not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries,
and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could
remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3 And though
I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body
to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 ¶Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity
vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself
unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh
no evil; 6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth
all things.
8 ¶Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they
shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether
there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 9 For we know in part,
and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect is come,
then that which is in part shall be done away. 11 When I was a child,
I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child:
but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now
we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know
in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13 And now
abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these
is charity.
