GoH3212, and gatherH622 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 togetherH622, and sayH559 unto them, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, of IsaacH3327, and of JacobH3290, appearedH7200 unto me, sayingH559, I have surelyH6485 visitedH6485 you, and seen that which is doneH6213 to you in EgyptH4714:
And they shall hearkenH8085 to thy voiceH6963: and thou shalt comeH935, thou and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, unto the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and ye shall sayH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 hath metH7136 with us: and now let us goH3212, we beseech thee, threeH7969 days'H3117 journeyH1870 into the wildernessH4057, that we may sacrificeH2076 to the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
And MosesH4872 cameH935 and calledH7121 for the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and laidH7760 before their facesH6440 all these wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 him.
And he saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Come upH5927 unto the LORDH3068, thou, and AaronH175, NadabH5070, and AbihuH30, and seventyH7657 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478; and worshipH7812 ye afar offH7350.
And MosesH4872 alone shall come nearH5066 the LORDH3068: but they shall not come nighH5066; neither shall the peopleH5971 go upH5927 with him.
And MosesH4872 cameH935 and toldH5608 the peopleH5971 all the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068, and all the judgmentsH4941: and all the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 with oneH259 voiceH6963, and saidH559, All the wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 will we doH6213.
And MosesH4872 wroteH3789 all the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068, and rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and buildedH1129 an altarH4196 under the hillH2022, and twelve pillarsH4676, according to the twelveH8147+H6240 tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478.
And he sentH7971 young menH5288 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, which offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930, and sacrificedH2076 peaceH8002 offeringsH2077 of oxenH6499 unto the LORDH3068.
And MosesH4872 tookH3947 halfH2677 of the bloodH1818, and putH7760 it in basonsH101; and halfH2677 of the bloodH1818 he sprinkledH2236 on the altarH4196.
And he tookH3947 the bookH5612 of the covenantH1285, and readH7121 in the audienceH241 of the peopleH5971: and they saidH559, All that the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 will we doH6213, and be obedientH8085.
And MosesH4872 tookH3947 the bloodH1818, and sprinkledH2236 it on the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Behold the bloodH1818 of the covenantH1285, which the LORDH3068 hath madeH3772 with you concerning all these wordsH1697.
Then went upH5927 MosesH4872, and AaronH175, NadabH5070, and AbihuH30, and seventyH7657 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478:
And they sawH7200 the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: and there was under his feetH7272 as it were a pavedH3840 workH4639 of a sapphire stoneH5601, and as it were the bodyH6106 of heavenH8064 in his clearnessH2892.
And upon the noblesH678 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 he laidH7971 not his handH3027: also they sawH2372 GodH430, and did eatH398 and drinkH8354.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Come upH5927 to me into the mountH2022, and be there: and I will giveH5414 thee tablesH3871 of stoneH68, and a lawH8451, and commandmentsH4687 which I have writtenH3789; that thou mayest teachH3384 them.
And MosesH4872 rose upH6965, and his ministerH8334 JoshuaH3091: and MosesH4872 went upH5927 into the mountH2022 of GodH430.
And he saidH559 unto the eldersH2205, TarryH3427 ye hereH2088 for us, until we come againH7725 unto you: and, behold, AaronH175 and HurH2354 are with you: if anyH4310 manH1167 have any mattersH1697 to doH1167, let him comeH5066 unto them.
And MosesH4872 went upH5927 into the mountH2022, and a cloudH6051 coveredH3680 the mountH2022.
And the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 abodeH7931 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514, and the cloudH6051 coveredH3680 it sixH8337 daysH3117: and the seventhH7637 dayH3117 he calledH7121 unto MosesH4872 out of the midstH8432 of the cloudH6051.
And the sightH4758 of the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 was like devouringH398 fireH784 on the topH7218 of the mountH2022 in the eyesH5869 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And MosesH4872 wentH935 into the midstH8432 of the cloudH6051, and gat him upH5927 into the mountH2022: and MosesH4872 was in the mountH2022 fortyH705 daysH3117 and fortyH705 nightsH3915.
Then MosesH4872 heardH8085 the peopleH5971 weepH1058 throughout their familiesH4940, every manH376 in the doorH6607 of his tentH168: and the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 greatlyH3966; MosesH4872 also was displeasedH7489+H5869.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, Wherefore hast thou afflictedH7489 thy servantH5650? and wherefore have I not foundH4672 favourH2580 in thy sightH5869, that thou layestH7760 the burdenH4853 of all this peopleH5971 upon me?
Have I conceivedH2029 all this peopleH5971? have I begottenH3205 them, that thou shouldest sayH559 unto me, CarryH5375 them in thy bosomH2436, as a nursing fatherH539 bearethH5375 the sucking childH3243, unto the landH127 which thou swarestH7650 unto their fathersH1?
WhenceH370 should I have fleshH1320 to giveH5414 unto all this peopleH5971? for they weepH1058 unto me, sayingH559, GiveH5414 us fleshH1320, that we may eatH398.
I am not ableH3201 to bearH5375 all this peopleH5971 aloneH905, because it is too heavyH3515 for me.
And if thou dealH6213 thus with me, killH2026 me, I pray thee, out of handH2026, if I have foundH4672 favourH2580 in thy sightH5869; and let me not seeH7200 my wretchednessH7451.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, GatherH622 unto me seventyH7657 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, whom thou knowestH3045 to be the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and officersH7860 over them; and bringH3947 them unto the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, that they may standH3320 there with thee.
And I will come downH3381 and talkH1696 with thee there: and I will takeH680 of the spiritH7307 which is upon thee, and will putH7760 it upon them; and they shall bearH5375 the burdenH4853 of the peopleH5971 with thee, that thou bearH5375 it not thyself alone.
And MosesH4872 wroteH3789 this lawH8451, and deliveredH5414 it unto the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, which bareH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and unto all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478.
RememberH2142 the daysH3117 of oldH5769, considerH995 the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755: askH7592 thy fatherH1, and he will shewH5046 thee; thy eldersH2205, and they will tellH559 thee. {many…: Heb. generation and generation}
Be ye therefore veryH3966 courageousH2388 to keepH8104 and to doH6213 all that is writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, that ye turnH5493 not aside therefrom to the right handH3225 or to the leftH8040;
Then wentH5927 BoazH1162 upH5927 to the gateH8179, and sat him downH3427 there: and, behold, the kinsmanH1350 of whom BoazH1162 spakeH1696 cameH5674 by; unto whom he saidH559, HoH1945, suchH6423 a oneH492! turn asideH5493, sit downH3427 here. And he turned asideH5493, and sat downH3427.
And he tookH3947 tenH6235 menH582 of the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892, and saidH559, Sit ye downH3427 here. And they sat downH3427.
And he saidH559 unto the kinsmanH1350, NaomiH5281, that is come againH7725 out of the countryH7704 of MoabH4124, sellethH4376 a parcelH2513 of landH7704, which was our brotherH251 Elimelech'sH458:
And I thoughtH559 to advertiseH1540+H241 thee, sayingH559, BuyH7069 it before the inhabitantsH3427, and before the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971. If thou wilt redeemH1350 it, redeemH1350 it: but if thou wilt not redeemH1350 it, then tellH5046 me, that I may knowH3045: for there is none to redeemH1350 it besideH2108 thee; and I am afterH310 thee. And he saidH559, I will redeemH1350 it. {I thought…: Heb. I said, I will reveal in thine ear}
Then saidH559 BoazH1162, What dayH3117 thou buyestH7069 the fieldH7704 of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281, thou must buyH7069 it also of RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of the deadH4191, to raise upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159.
And the kinsmanH1350 saidH559, I cannotH3201 redeemH1350 it for myself, lest I marH7843 mine own inheritanceH5159: redeemH1350 thou my rightH1353 to thyself; for I cannotH3201 redeemH1350 it.
Now this was the manner in former timeH6440 in IsraelH3478 concerning redeemingH1353 and concerning changingH8545, for to confirmH6965 all thingsH1697; a manH376 plucked offH8025 his shoeH5275, and gaveH5414 it to his neighbourH7453: and this was a testimonyH8584 in IsraelH3478.
Therefore the kinsmanH1350 saidH559 unto BoazH1162, BuyH7069 it for thee. So he drew offH8025 his shoeH5275.
And BoazH1162 saidH559 unto the eldersH2205, and unto all the peopleH5971, Ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117, that I have boughtH7069 all that was Elimelech'sH458, and all that was Chilion'sH3630 and Mahlon'sH4248, of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281.
Moreover RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of MahlonH4248, have I purchasedH7069 to be my wifeH802, to raise upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159, that the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 be not cut offH3772 from amongH5973 his brethrenH251, and from the gateH8179 of his placeH4725: ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117.
And all the peopleH5971 that were in the gateH8179, and the eldersH2205, saidH559, We are witnessesH5707. The LORDH3068 makeH5414 the womanH802 that is comeH935 into thine houseH1004 like RachelH7354 and like LeahH3812, which twoH8147 did buildH1129 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: and doH6213 thou worthilyH2428 in EphratahH672, and be famousH7121+H8034 in BethlehemH1035: {do thou…: or, get thee riches, or, power} {be famous: Heb. proclaim thy name}
And let thy houseH1004 be like the houseH1004 of PharezH6557, whom TamarH8559 bareH3205 unto JudahH3063, of the seedH2233 which the LORDH3068 shall giveH5414 thee of this young womanH5291.
So BoazH1162 tookH3947 RuthH7327, and she was his wifeH802: and when he went inH935 unto her, the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 her conceptionH2032, and she bareH3205 a sonH1121.
And the womenH802 saidH559 unto NaomiH5281, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068, which hath not leftH7673 thee this dayH3117 without a kinsmanH1350, that his nameH8034 may be famousH7121 in IsraelH3478. {left…: Heb. caused to cease unto thee} {kinsman: or, redeemer}
And he shall be unto thee a restorerH7725 of thy lifeH5315, and a nourisherH3557 of thine old ageH7872: for thy daughter in lawH3618, which lovethH157 thee, which is betterH2896 to thee than sevenH7651 sonsH1121, hath bornH3205 him. {a nourisher of: Heb. to nourish} {thine…: Heb. thy gray hairs}
And NaomiH5281 tookH3947 the childH3206, and laidH7896 it in her bosomH2436, and became nurseH539 unto it.
And the women her neighboursH7934 gaveH7121 it a nameH8034, sayingH559, There is a sonH1121 bornH3205 to NaomiH5281; and they calledH7121 his nameH8034 ObedH5744: he is the fatherH1 of JesseH3448, the fatherH1 of DavidH1732.
Now these are the generationsH8435 of PharezH6557: PharezH6557 begatH3205 HezronH2696,
And HezronH2696 begatH3205 RamH7410, and RamH7410 begatH3205 AmminadabH5992,
And AmminadabH5992 begatH3205 NahshonH5177, and NahshonH5177 begatH3205 SalmonH8009, {Salmon: or, Salmah}
And SalmonH8012 begatH3205 BoazH1162, and BoazH1162 begatH3205 ObedH5744,
And ObedH5744 begatH3205 JesseH3448, and JesseH3448 begatH3205 DavidH1732.
WhichG3739 alsoG2532 they didG4160, and sent itG649 toG4314 the eldersG4245 byG1223 the handsG5495 of BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569.
AndG1161 when they had ordainedG5500 themG846 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 churchG1577, and had prayedG4336 withG3326 fastingG3521, they commendedG3908 themG846 to the LordG2962, onG1519 whomG3739 they believedG4100.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
That ye abstainG567 from meats offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517.
AndG1161 fromG575 MiletusG3399 he sentG3992 toG1519 EphesusG2181, and calledG3333 the eldersG4245 of the churchG1577.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
The eldersG4245 which are amongG1722 youG5213 I exhortG3870, whoG3588 am also an elderG4850, andG2532 a witnessG3144 of the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, and alsoG2532 a partakerG2844 of the gloryG1391 that shallG3195 be revealedG601:
FeedG4165 the flockG4168 of GodG2316 which is amongG1722 youG5213, taking the oversightG1983 thereof, notG3361 by constraintG317, butG235 willinglyG1596; notG3366 for filthy lucreG147, butG235 of a ready mindG4290; {which…: or, as much as in you is}
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
AndG1161 when they had ordainedG5500 themG846 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 churchG1577, and had prayedG4336 withG3326 fastingG3521, they commendedG3908 themG846 to the LordG2962, onG1519 whomG3739 they believedG4100.
A bishopG1985 thenG3767 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG423, the husbandG435 of oneG3391 wifeG1135, vigilantG3524, soberG4998, of good behaviourG2887, given to hospitalityG5382, apt to teachG1317; {of good…: or, modest}
NotG3361 given to wineG3943, noG3361 strikerG4131, notG3361 greedy of filthy lucreG146; butG235 patientG1933, not a brawlerG269, not covetousG866; {given…: or, ready to quarrel, and offer wrong, as one in wine}
One that rulethG4291 wellG2573 his ownG2398 houseG3624, havingG2192 his childrenG5043 inG1722 subjectionG5292 withG3326 allG3956 gravityG4587;
(ForG1161 if a manG1536 knowG1492 notG3756 howG1492 to ruleG4291 his ownG2398 houseG3624, howG4459 shall he take care ofG1959 the churchG1577 of GodG2316?)
NotG3361 a noviceG3504, lestG3363 being lifted up with prideG5187 he fallG1706 intoG1519 the condemnationG2917 of the devilG1228. {a novice: or, one newly come to the faith}
MoreoverG1161+G2532 heG846 mustG1163 haveG2192 a goodG2570 reportG3141 ofG575 them which are withoutG1855; lestG3363 he fallG1706 intoG1519 reproachG3680 andG2532 the snareG3803 of the devilG1228.
AndG1161 when they had ordainedG5500 themG846 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 churchG1577, and had prayedG4336 withG3326 fastingG3521, they commendedG3908 themG846 to the LordG2962, onG1519 whomG3739 they believedG4100.
For thisG5127 causeG5484 left IG2641 theeG4571 inG1722 CreteG2914, thatG2443 thou shouldest set in orderG1930 the things that are wantingG3007, andG2532 ordainG2525 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172, asG5613 IG1473 had appointedG1299 theeG4671: {wanting: or, left undone}
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
AndG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, to knowG1492 them whichG3588 labourG2872 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 are overG4291 youG5216 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 admonishG3560 youG5209;
AndG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, to knowG1492 them whichG3588 labourG2872 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 are overG4291 youG5216 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 admonishG3560 youG5209;
AndG2532 to esteemG2233 themG846 veryG5228 highlyG1537+G4053 inG1722 loveG26 forG1223 theirG846 work's sakeG2041. And be at peaceG1514 amongG1722 yourselvesG1438.
