Exodus 27

New American Standard Bible

The Bronze Altar

27 “Now you shall make ^(A)the altar of acacia wood, ^[a]five cubits long and five cubits wide; the altar shall be square, and its height shall be ^[b]three cubits. ²You shall make ^(B)its horns on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it, and you shall overlay it with ^[c]bronze. ³And you shall make its pails for removing its ashes, and its shovels, its basins, its forks, and its firepans; you shall make all its utensils of bronze. ⁴You shall also make for it a grating, a netting of bronze, and on the netting you shall make four bronze rings ^[d]at its four corners. ⁵And you shall put it under the ledge of the altar, so that the netting will reach halfway up the altar. ⁶You shall also make carrying poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood and overlay them with bronze. ⁷Its poles shall be inserted into the rings, so that the poles will be on the two sides of the altar ^(C)when it is carried. ⁸You shall make it hollow with planks; ^(D)as it was shown to you on the mountain, so they shall make it.

Courtyard of the Tabernacle

⁹“Now you shall make ^(E)the courtyard of the ^[e]tabernacle. ^[f]On the south side there shall be hangings for the courtyard of fine twisted linen, a ^[g]hundred cubits long for one side; ¹⁰and its pillars shall be twenty, with their twenty bases of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their ^[h]bands shall be of silver. ¹¹Likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings a ^[i]hundred cubits long, and its twenty pillars with their twenty bases of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their bands shall be of silver. ¹²For the width of the courtyard on the west side shall be hangings of ^[j]fifty cubits, with their ten pillars and their ten bases. ¹³The width of the courtyard on the ^[k]east side shall be fifty cubits. ¹⁴The hangings for the one ^[l]side of the gate shall be ^[m]fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three bases. ¹⁵And for the ^[n]other ^[o]side there shall be hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their three bases. ¹⁶And for the gate of the courtyard there shall be a curtain of ^[p]twenty cubits, of ^[q]violet, purple, and scarlet material and fine twisted linen, the work of a ^[r]weaver, with their four pillars and their four bases. ¹⁷All the pillars around the courtyard shall be joined together with silver, with their hooks of silver and their bases of bronze. ¹⁸The length of the courtyard shall be a ^[s]hundred cubits, and the width fifty throughout, and the height five cubits of fine twisted linen, and their bases of bronze. ¹⁹All the utensils of the tabernacle used in all its service, and all its pegs, and all the pegs of the courtyard, shall be of bronze.

²⁰“And you shall command the sons of Israel that they bring you ^(F)clear oil of beaten olives for the ^[t]light, to make a lamp ^[u]burn continually. ²¹In the ^(G)tent of meeting, outside ^(H)the veil which is before the testimony, ^(I)Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the Lord; it shall be a permanent ^(J)statute throughout their generations ^[v]for the sons of Israel.

Psalm 59:1-8

New American Standard Bible

Prayer for Rescue from Enemies.

For the music director; set to ^[a]Al-tashheth. A ^[b]Mikhtam of David, ^[c]when Saul sent men and they watched the house in order to kill him.

59 ^(A)Rescue me from my enemies, my God;
^[d]^(B)Set me securely on high away from those who rise up against me.
²Rescue me from ^(C)those who practice injustice,
And save me from ^(D)men of bloodshed.
³For behold, they ^(E)have ^[e]set an ambush for my ^[f]life;
^[g]Fierce men ^(F)attack me,
^(G)Not for my wrongdoing nor for my sin, Lord,
⁴^[h]^(H)For no guilt of mine, they run and take their stand against me.
^(I)Stir Yourself to ^[i]help me, and see!
⁵You, ^(J)Lord God of armies, the God of Israel,
Awake to ^[j]^(K)punish all the nations;
^(L)Do not be gracious to any who deal treacherously in wrongdoing. Selah
⁶They ^(M)return at evening, they howl like a ^(N)dog,
And prowl around the city.
⁷Behold, they ^(O)gush forth with their mouths;
^(P)Swords are in their lips,
For, they say, “^(Q)Who hears?”
⁸But You, Lord, ^(R)laugh at them;
You ^(S)scoff at all the nations.

Ten Men with Leprosy Healed

¹¹While He was ^(A)on the way to Jerusalem, ^(B)He was passing ^[a]between Samaria and Galilee. ¹²And as He entered a village, ten men with leprosy who ^(C)stood at a distance met Him; ¹³and they raised their voices, saying, “Jesus, ^(D)Master, have mercy on us!” ¹⁴When He saw them, He said to them, “^(E)Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were going, they were cleansed. ¹⁵Now one of them, when he saw that he had been healed, turned back, ^(F)glorifying God with a loud voice, ¹⁶and he fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks to Him. And he was a ^(G)Samaritan. ¹⁷But Jesus responded and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But the nine—where are they? ¹⁸^[b]Was no one found who returned to ^(H)give glory to God, except this foreigner?”
