Numbers 30

    ²And he said to the princes of the tribes of the children of Israel: This is the word that the Lord hath commanded:

    ³If any man make a vow to the Lord, or bind himself by an oath: he shall not make his word void but shall fulfil all that he promised.

    ⁴If a woman vow any thing, and bind herself by an oath, being in her father's house, and but yet a girl in age: if her father knew the vow that she hath promised, and the oath wherewith she hath bound her soul, and held his peace, she shall be bound by the vow:

    ⁵Whatsoever she promised and swore, she shall fulfil in deed.

    ⁶But if her father, immediately as soon as he heard it, gainsaid it, both her vows and her oaths shall be void, neither shall she be bound to what she promised, because her father hath gainsaid it.

    ⁷If she have a husband, and shall vow any thing, and the word once going out of her mouth shall bind her soul by an oath:

    ⁸The day that her husband shall hear it, and not gainsay it, she shall be bound to the vow, and shall give whatsoever she promised.

    ⁹But if as soon as he heareth he gainsay it, and make her promises and the words wherewith she had bound her soul of no effect : the Lord will forgive her.

    ¹⁰The widow, and she that is divorced, shall fulfil whatsoever they vow.

    ¹¹If the wife in the house of her husband, hath bound herself by vow and by oath,

    ¹²If her husband hear, and hold his peace, and doth not disallow the promise, she shall accomplish whatsoever she had promised.

    ¹³But if forthwith he gainsay it, she shall not be bound by the promise: because her husband gainsaid it, and the Lord will be merciful to her.

    ¹⁴If she vow and bind herself by oath, to afflict her soul by fasting, or abstinence from other things, it shall depend on the will of her husband, whether she shall do it, or not do it.

    ¹⁵But if the husband hearing it hold his peace, and defer the declaring his mind till another day: whatsoever she had vowed and promised, she shall fulfil: because immediately as he heard it, he held his peace.

    ¹⁶But if he gainsay it after that he knew it, he shall bear her iniquity.

    ¹⁷These are the laws which the Lord appointed to Moses between the husband and the wife, between the father and the daughter that is as yet but a girl in age, or that abideth in her father's house.

Numbers 31

    ²Revenge first the children of Israel on the Madianites, and so thou shalt be gathered to thy people.

    ³And Moses forthwith said: Arm of you men to fight, who may take the revenge of the Lord on the Madianites.

    ⁴Let a thousand men be chosen out of every tribe of Israel to be sent to the war.

    ⁵And they gave a thousand of every tribe, that is to say, twelve thousand men well appointed for battle.

    ⁶And Moses sent them with Phinees the son of Eleazar the priest, and he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound.

    ⁷And when they had fought against the Madianites and had overcome them, they slew all the men.

    ⁸And their kings Evi, and Recem, and Sur, and Hur, and Rebe, five princes of the nation: Balaam also the son of Beer they killed with the sword.

    ⁹And they took their women, and their children captives, and all their cattle, and all their goods: and all their possessions they plundered:

    ¹⁰And all their cities, and their villages, and castles, they burned.

    ¹¹And they carried away the booty, and all that they had taken both of men and of beasts.

    ¹²And they brought them to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the children of Israel. But the rest of the things for use they carried to the camp on the plains of Moab, beside the Jordan over against Jericho.

    ¹³And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the princes of the synagogue went forth to meet them without the camp.

    ¹⁴And Moses being angry with the chief officers of the army, the tribunes, and the centurions that were come from the battle,

    ¹⁵Said: Why have you saved the women?

    ¹⁶Are not these they, that deceived the children of Israel by the counsel of Balaam, and made you transgress against the Lord by the sin of Phogor, for which also the people was punished?

    ¹⁷Therefore kill all that are of the male sex, even of the children: and put to death the women, that have carnally known men.

    ¹⁸But the girls, and all the women that are virgins save for yourselves:

    ¹⁹And stay without the camp seven days. He that hath killed a man, or touched one that is killed, shall be purified the third day and the seventh day.

    ²⁰And of all the spoil, every garment, or vessel, or any thing made for use, of the skins, or hair of goats, or of wood, shall be purified.

    ²¹Eleazar also the priest spoke to the men of the army, that had fought, in this manner: This is the ordinance of the law, which the Lord hath commanded Moses:

    ²²Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lend, and tin,

    ²³And all that may pass through the fire, shall be purified by fire, but whatsoever cannot abide the fire, shall be sanctified with the water of expiation:

    ²⁴And you shall wash your garments the seventh day, and being purified, you shall afterwards enter into the camp.

    ²⁵And the Lord said to Moses:

    ²⁶Take the sum of the things that were taken both of man and beast, thou and Eleazar the priest and the princes of the multitude:

    ²⁷And thou shalt divide the spoil equally, between them that fought and went out to the war, and between the rest of the multitude.

    ²⁸And thou shalt separate a portion to the Lord from them that fought and were in the battle, one soul of five hundred as well of persons as of oxen and asses and sheep.

    ²⁹And thou shalt give it to Eleazar the priest, because they are the firstfruits of the Lord.

    ³⁰Out of the moiety also of the children of Israel thou shalt take the fiftieth head of persons, and of oxen, and asses, and sheep, and of all beasts, and thou shalt give them to the Levites that watch in the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord.

    ³¹And Moses and Eleazar did as the Lord had commanded.

    ³²And the spoil which the army had taken, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,

    ³³Seventy-two thousand oxen,

    ³⁴Sixty-one thousand asses:

    ³⁵And thirty-two thousand persons of the female sex, that had not known men.

    ³⁶And one half was given to them that had been in the battle, to wit, three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep:

    ³⁷Out of which, for the portion of the Lord, were reckoned six hundred seventy-five sheep.

    ³⁸And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen, seventy-two oxen:

    ³⁹Out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses, sixty-one asses:

    ⁴⁰Out of the sixteen thousand persons, there fell to the portion of the Lord, thirty-two souls.

    ⁴¹And Moses delivered the number of the firstfruits of the Lord to Eleazar the priest, as had been commanded him,

    ⁴²Out of the half of the children of Israel, which he had separated for them that had been in the battle.

    ⁴³But out of the half that fell to the rest of the multitude, that is to say, out of the three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,

    ⁴⁴And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen,

    ⁴⁵And out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses,

    ⁴⁶And out of the sixteen thousand persons,

    ⁴⁷Moses took the fiftieth head, and gave it to the Levites that watched in the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord had commanded.

    ⁴⁸And when the commanders of the army, and the tribunes and centurions were come to Moses, they said:

    ⁴⁹We thy servants have reckoned up the number of the fighting men, whom we had under our hand, and not so much as one was wanting.

    ⁵⁰Therefore we offer as gifts to the Lord what gold every one of us could find in the booty, in garters and tablets, rings and bracelets, and chains, that thou mayst pray to the Lord for us.

    ⁵¹And Moses and Eleazar the priest received all the gold in divers kinds,

    ⁵²In weight sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty sicles, from the tribunes and from the centurions.

    ⁵³For that which every one had taken in the booty was his own.

    ⁵⁴And that which was received they brought into the tabernacle of the testimony, for a memorial of the children of Israel before the Lord.

Mark 9

    ²And his garments became shining and exceeding white as snow, so as no fuller upon earth can make white.

    ³And there appeared to them Elias with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.

    ⁴And Peter answering, said to Jesus: Rabbi, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

    ⁵For he knew not what he said: for they were struck with fear.

    ⁶And there was a cloud overshadowing them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying: This is my most beloved son; hear ye him.

    ⁷And immediately looking about, they saw no man any more, but Jesus only with them.

    ⁸And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them not to tell any man what things they had seen, till the Son of man shall be risen again from the dead.

    ⁹And they kept the word to themselves; questioning together what that should mean, when he shall be risen from the dead.

    ¹⁰And they asked him, saying: Why then do the Pharisees and scribes say that Elias must come first?

    ¹¹Who answering, said to them: Elias, when he shall come first, shall restore all things; and as it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things and be despised.

    ¹²But I say to you, that Elias also is come, (and they have done to him whatsoever they would,) as it is written of him.

    ¹³And coming to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes disputing with them.

    ¹⁴And presently all the people seeing Jesus, were astonished and struck with fear; and running to him, they saluted him.

    ¹⁵And he asked them: What do you question about among you?

    ¹⁶And one of the multitude, answering, said: Master, I have brought my son to thee, having a dumb spirit.

    ¹⁷Who, wheresoever he taketh him, dasheth him, and he foameth, and gnasheth with the teeth, and pineth away; and I spoke to thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.

    ¹⁸Who answering them, said: O incredulous generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

    ¹⁹And they brought him. And when he had seen him, immediately the spirit troubled him; and being thrown down upon the ground, he rolled about foaming.

    ²⁰And he asked his father: How long time is it since this hath happened unto him? But he said: From his infancy:

    ²¹And oftentimes hath he cast him into the fire and into waters to destroy him. But if thou canst do any thing, help us, having compassion on us.

    ²²And Jesus saith to him: If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

    ²³And immediately the father of the boy crying out, with tears said: I do believe, Lord: help my unbelief.

    ²⁴And when Jesus saw the multitude running together, he threatened the unclean spirit, saying to him: Deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee, go out of him; and enter not any more into him.

    ²⁵And crying out, and greatly tearing him, he went out of him, and he became as dead, so that many said: He is dead.

    ²⁶But Jesus taking him by the hand, lifted him up; and he arose.

    ²⁷And when he was come into the house, his disciples secretly asked him: Why could not we cast him out?

    ²⁸And he said to them: This kind can go out by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

    ²⁹And departing from thence, they passed through Galilee, and he would not that any man should know it.
