English Standard Version
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying, 15 “List the sons of Levi, by fathers' houses and by clans; (A)every male from a month old and upward you shall list.” 16 So Moses listed them according to the word of the Lord, as he was commanded. 17 (B)And these were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon and Kohath and Merari. 18 And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their clans: (C)Libni and Shimei. 19 And the sons of Kohath by their clans: (D)Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. 20 And the sons of Merari by their clans: (E)Mahli and Mushi. These are the clans of the Levites, by their fathers' houses.
21 To Gershon belonged the clan of the Libnites and the clan of the Shimeites; these were the clans of the Gershonites. 22 Their listing according to the number of all the males from a month old and upward was[a] 7,500. 23 (F)The clans of the Gershonites were to camp behind the tabernacle on the west,

20 Dedan traded with you in saddlecloths for riding. 21 Arabia and all the princes of (A)Kedar were your favored dealers (B)in lambs, rams, and goats; in these they did business with you. 22 The traders of (C)Sheba and (D)Raamah traded with you; they exchanged (E)for your wares (F)the best of all kinds of spices and all precious stones and gold. 23 (G)Haran, Canneh, (H)Eden, traders of Sheba, (I)Asshur, and Chilmad traded with you. 24 In your market these traded with you in choice garments, in clothes of (J)blue and (K)embroidered work, and in carpets of colored material, bound with cords and made secure. 25 (L)The ships of (M)Tarshish traveled for you with your merchandise. So you were filled and heavily laden (N)in the heart of the seas.
26 “Your rowers have brought you out
into the high seas.
(O)The east wind has wrecked you
in the heart of the seas.
27 Your riches, your wares, your merchandise,
your mariners and (P)your pilots,
(Q)your caulkers, your dealers in merchandise,
and all your men of war who are in you,
with all your crew
that is in your midst,
sink into the heart of the seas
(R)on the day of your fall.
28 At the sound of the cry of your pilots
(S)the countryside shakes,
29 and down from their ships
(T)come all who handle the oar.
The mariners and all the pilots of the sea
stand on the land
30 (U)and shout aloud over you
and cry out bitterly.
(V)They cast dust on their heads
(W)and wallow in ashes;
31 they (X)make themselves bald for you
and put sackcloth on their waist,
and they weep over you in bitterness of soul,
with bitter mourning.
32 In their wailing they (Y)raise a lamentation for you
and lament over you:
(Z)‘Who is like Tyre,
like one destroyed in the midst of the sea?
33 When your wares came from the seas,
(AA)you satisfied many peoples;
with your abundant wealth and merchandise
(AB)you enriched the kings of the earth.
34 Now (AC)you are wrecked by the seas,
in the depths of the waters;
your merchandise and all your crew in your midst
have sunk with you.
35 (AD)All the inhabitants of the coastlands
are appalled at you,
and (AE)the hair of their kings bristles with horror;
their faces are convulsed.
36 (AF)The merchants among the peoples (AG)hiss at you;
(AH)you have come to a dreadful end
and shall be no more forever.’”

22 “‘The merchants of Sheba(D) and Raamah traded with you; for your merchandise they exchanged the finest of all kinds of spices(E) and precious stones, and gold.(F)
23 “‘Harran,(G) Kanneh and Eden(H) and merchants of Sheba, Ashur(I) and Kilmad traded with you. 24 In your marketplace they traded with you beautiful garments, blue fabric, embroidered work and multicolored rugs with cords twisted and tightly knotted.
25 “‘The ships of Tarshish(J) serve
as carriers for your wares.
You are filled with heavy cargo
as you sail the sea.(K)
26 Your oarsmen take you
out to the high seas.
But the east wind(L) will break you to pieces
far out at sea.
27 Your wealth,(M) merchandise and wares,
your mariners, sailors and shipwrights,
your merchants and all your soldiers,
and everyone else on board
will sink into the heart of the sea(N)
on the day of your shipwreck.
28 The shorelands will quake(O)
when your sailors cry out.
29 All who handle the oars
will abandon their ships;
the mariners and all the sailors
will stand on the shore.
30 They will raise their voice
and cry bitterly over you;
they will sprinkle dust(P) on their heads
and roll(Q) in ashes.(R)
31 They will shave their heads(S) because of you
and will put on sackcloth.
They will weep(T) over you with anguish of soul
and with bitter mourning.(U)
32 As they wail and mourn over you,
they will take up a lament(V) concerning you:
“Who was ever silenced like Tyre,
surrounded by the sea?(W)”
33 When your merchandise went out on the seas,(X)
you satisfied many nations;
with your great wealth(Y) and your wares
you enriched the kings of the earth.
34 Now you are shattered by the sea
in the depths of the waters;
your wares and all your company
have gone down with you.(Z)
35 All who live in the coastlands(AA)
are appalled(AB) at you;
their kings shudder with horror
and their faces are distorted with fear.(AC)
36 The merchants among the nations scoff at you;(AD)
you have come to a horrible end
and will be no more.(AE)’”

Healing of a Man on the Sabbath
14 One Sabbath, (A)when he went to dine at the house of a ruler of the Pharisees, they were (B)watching him carefully. 2 And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy. 3 And Jesus responded to (C)the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, (D)“Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?” 4 But they remained silent. Then he took him and healed him and sent him away. 5 And he said to them, (E)“Which of you, having a son[a] or an ox that has fallen into a well on a Sabbath day, will not immediately pull him out?” 6 (F)And they could not reply to these things.
The Parable of the Wedding Feast
7 Now he told a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed (G)how they chose the places of honor, saying to them, 8 “When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in a place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you be invited by him, 9 and he who invited you both will come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this person,’ and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place. 10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, (H)so that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you. 11 For (I)everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
The Parable of the Great Banquet
12 He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give (J)a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers[b] or your relatives or rich neighbors, (K)lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. 13 But when you give a feast, (L)invite (M)the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, 14 and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid (N)at (O)the resurrection of the just.”

Jesus at a Pharisee’s House(A)
14 One Sabbath, when Jesus went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee,(B) he was being carefully watched.(C) 2 There in front of him was a man suffering from abnormal swelling of his body. 3 Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the law,(D) “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”(E) 4 But they remained silent. So taking hold of the man, he healed him and sent him on his way.
5 Then he asked them, “If one of you has a child[a] or an ox that falls into a well on the Sabbath day, will you not immediately pull it out?”(F) 6 And they had nothing to say.
7 When he noticed how the guests picked the places of honor at the table,(G) he told them this parable: 8 “When someone invites you to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, for a person more distinguished than you may have been invited. 9 If so, the host who invited both of you will come and say to you, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then, humiliated, you will have to take the least important place. 10 But when you are invited, take the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he will say to you, ‘Friend, move up to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all the other guests. 11 For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”(H)
12 Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. 13 But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind,(I) 14 and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”(J)

Example of Hagar and Sarah
21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not listen to the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, (A)one by a slave woman and (B)one by a free woman. 23 But (C)the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, while (D)the son of the free woman was born through promise. 24 Now this may be interpreted allegorically: these women are two (E)covenants. (F)One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar. 25 Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia;[a] she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. 26 But (G)the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother. 27 For it is written,
(H)“Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear;
break forth and cry aloud, you who are not in labor!
For the children of the desolate one will be more
than those of the one who has a husband.”
28 Now you,[b] brothers, (I)like Isaac, (J)are children of promise. 29 But just as at that time he who was born according to the flesh (K)persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, (L)so also it is now. 30 But what does the Scripture say? (M)“Cast out the slave woman and her son, for the son of the slave woman shall not inherit with the son of the free woman.” 31 So, brothers, we are not children of the slave but (N)of the free woman.
Christ Has Set Us Free
5 For (O)freedom Christ has (P)set us free; (Q)stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to (R)a yoke of (S)slavery.

Hagar and Sarah
21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law,(A) are you not aware of what the law says? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman(B) and the other by the free woman.(C) 23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh,(D) but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise.(E)
24 These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. 25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem that is above(F) is free, and she is our mother. 27 For it is written:
“Be glad, barren woman,
you who never bore a child;
shout for joy and cry aloud,
you who were never in labor;
because more are the children of the desolate woman
than of her who has a husband.”[a](G)
28 Now you, brothers and sisters, like Isaac, are children of promise.(H) 29 At that time the son born according to the flesh(I) persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit.(J) It is the same now. 30 But what does Scripture say? “Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”[b](K) 31 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman,(L) but of the free woman.(M)
Freedom in Christ
5 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.(N) Stand firm,(O) then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.(P)
