1 ¶And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron
and his sons, and the elders of Israel; 2 And he said unto Aaron,
Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt
offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD. 3 And
unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a
kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both
of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering; 4 Also
a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the
LORD; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the LORD
will appear unto you. 5 And they brought that which Moses commanded
before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation
drew near and stood before the LORD. 6 And Moses said, This is the
thing which the LORD commanded that ye should do: and the glory
of the LORD shall appear unto you. 7 And Moses said unto Aaron,
Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering,
and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer
the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the
LORD commanded.
8 ¶Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the
sin offering, which was for himself. 9 And the sons of Aaron brought
the blood unto him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put
it upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the
bottom of the altar: 10 But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul
above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as
the LORD commanded Moses. 11 And the flesh and the hide he burnt
with fire without the camp. 12 And he slew the burnt offering; and
Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round
about upon the altar. 13 And they presented the burnt offering unto
him, with the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon
the altar. 14 And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt
them upon the burnt offering on the altar. 15 And he brought the
people's offering, and took the goat, which was the sin offering
for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
16 And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to
the manner. 17 And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful
thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice
of the morning. 18 He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice
of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons presented
unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,
19 And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that
which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above
the liver: 20 And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt
the fat upon the altar: 21 And the breasts and the right shoulder
Aaron waved for a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.
22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them,
and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering,
and peace offerings.
23 ¶And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation,
and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD
appeared unto all the people. 24 And there came a fire out from
before the LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering
and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell
on their faces.

1 ¶And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his
censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered
strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. 2 And
there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died
before the LORD.
3 ¶Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying,
I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the
people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. 4 And Moses
called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron,
and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the
sanctuary out of the camp. 5 So they went near, and carried them
in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said. 6 And Moses said
unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover
not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest
wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole
house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled.
7 And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the LORD is
upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses.
8 ¶And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying, 9 Do not drink wine nor
strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the
tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute
for ever throughout your generations: 10 And that ye may put difference
between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean; 11 And that
ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD
hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.
12 ¶And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar,
his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of
the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without leaven
beside the altar: for it is most holy: 13 And ye shall eat it in
the holy place, because it is thy due, and thy sons' due, of the
sacrifices of the LORD made by fire: for so I am commanded. 14 And
the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place;
thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be thy
due, and thy sons' due, which are given out of the sacrifices of
peace offerings of the children of Israel. 15 The heave shoulder
and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by
fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD;
and it shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, by a statute for
ever; as the LORD hath commanded. 16 And Moses diligently sought
the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he
was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were
left alive, saying, 17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering
in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it
you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement
for them before the LORD? 18 Behold, the blood of it was not brought
in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the
holy place, as I commanded. 19 And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold,
this day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering
before the LORD; and such things have befallen me: and if I had
eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the
sight of the LORD? 20 And when Moses heard that, he was content.

1 ¶ O God, my heart is fixed; I will
sing and give praise, even with my glory. 2 Awake, psaltery and
harp: I myself will awake early. 3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among
the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth
unto the clouds. 5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and
thy glory above all the earth;
6 ¶That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand,
and answer me. 7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice,
I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. 8 Gilead
is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine
head; Judah is my lawgiver; 9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will
I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph. 10 Who will bring
me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom? 11 Wilt not
thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go
forth with our hosts? 12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is
the help of man. 13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it
is that shall tread down our enemies.

1 ¶ Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise; 2 For the mouth of the
wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they
have spoken against me with a lying tongue. 3 They compassed me
about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a
cause. 4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself
unto prayer. 5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred
for my love.
6 ¶Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right
hand. 7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his
prayer become sin. 8 Let his days be few; and let another take his
office. 9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them
seek their bread also out of their desolate places. 11 Let the extortioner
catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there
be any to favour his fatherless children. 13 Let his posterity be
cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted
out. 14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD;
and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out. 15 Let them be
before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them
from the earth. 16 Because that he remembered not to shew mercy,
but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the
broken in heart. 17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him:
as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him. 18 As
he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let
it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for
a girdle wherewith he is girded continually. 20 Let this be the
reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak
evil against my soul.
21 ¶But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because
thy mercy is good, deliver thou me. 22 For I am poor and needy,
and my heart is wounded within me. 23 I am gone like the shadow
when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust. 24 My
knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me
they shaked their heads. 26 Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according
to thy mercy: 27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that
thou, LORD, hast done it. 28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when
they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice. 29
Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves
with their own confusion, as with a mantle. 30 I will greatly praise
the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him
from those that condemn his soul.

Corinthians 1
|

1 ¶ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy
our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all
the saints which are in all Achaia: 2 Grace be to you and peace
from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 ¶Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the
Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; 4 Who comforteth
us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which
are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted
of God. 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation
also aboundeth by Christ. 6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for
your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring
of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted,
it is for your consolation and salvation.
7 ¶And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers
of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation. 8 For
we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came
to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength,
insomuch that we despaired even of life: 9 But we had the sentence
of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but
in God which raiseth the dead: 10 Who delivered us from so great
a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver
us; 11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift
bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given
by many on our behalf.
12 ¶For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience,
that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom,
but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world,
and more abundantly to you-ward. 13 For we write none other things
unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall
acknowledge even to the end; 14 As also ye have acknowledged us
in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in
the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 ¶And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before,
that ye might have a second benefit; 16 And to pass by you into
Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you
to be brought on my way toward Judaea. 17 When I therefore was thus
minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I
purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea
yea, and nay nay? 18 But as God is true, our word toward you was
not yea and nay. 19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached
among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not
yea and nay, but in him was yea. 20 For all the promises of God
in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. 21
Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed
us, is God; 22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of
the Spirit in our hearts. 23 Moreover I call God for a record upon
my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth. 24 Not
for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your
joy: for by faith ye stand.

Corinthians 2

1 ¶But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again
to you in heaviness. 2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that
maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me? 3 And I
wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow
from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all,
that my joy is the joy of you all. 4 For out of much affliction
and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that
ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have
more abundantly unto you.
5 ¶But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in
part: that I may not overcharge you all. 6 Sufficient to such a
man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. 7 So that contrariwise
ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such
a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 8 Wherefore I
beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. 9 For to
this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether
ye be obedient in all things. 10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I
forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it,
for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; 11 Lest Satan
should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
12 ¶Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel,
and a door was opened unto me of the Lord, 13 I had no rest in my
spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave
of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. 14 Now thanks be unto
God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest
the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 15 For we are
unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in
them that perish: 16 To the one we are the savour of death unto
death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is
sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not as many, which corrupt
the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight
of God speak we in Christ.
