4 Then Moses answered, and said, “But lo, they will neither believe me nor listen to my voice. For they will say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’”
2 And the LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” And he answered, “A rod.”
3 Then he said, “Cast it on the ground.” So, he cast it on the ground; and it was turned into a serpent. And Moses fled from it.
4 Again the LORD said to Moses, “Put forth your hand and take it by the tail.” Then he put forth his hand and caught it; and it was turned into a rod in his hand.
5 “Do this, so that they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob has appeared to you.”
6 And furthermore, the LORD said to him, “Now, thrust your hand into your bosom.” And he thrust his hand into his bosom. And when he took it out again, behold his hand was leprous as snow.
7 Moreover, He said, “Put your hand into your bosom again.” So, he put his hand into his bosom again and pulled it out of his bosom. And behold, it was turned back as his other flesh.
8 “So shall it be, if they will not believe you or obey the voice of the first sign, they shall still believe the voice of the second sign.
9 “But, if they will still not believe these two signs or obey your voice, then you shall take of the water of the river and pour it upon the dry land. So, the water which you shall take out of the river shall be turned to blood upon the dry land.”
10 But Moses said to the LORD, “Oh my LORD, I am not eloquent, neither before nor since You have spoken to Your servant. But I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.”
11 Then the LORD said to him, “Who has given the mouth to man? Or, Who has made the dumb or the deaf or him who sees or the blind? Have not I, the LORD?
12 “Therefore, go now; and I will be with your mouth and will teach you what you shall say.”
13 But he said, “Oh, my LORD. Please send by the hand of someone else.”
14 Then the LORD was very angry with Moses, and said, “Do not I know Aaron, your brother, the Levite; that he himself shall speak? For lo, he also comes forth to meet you. And when he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
15 “Therefore, you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with your mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what you ought to do.
16 “And he shall be your spokesman to the people. And he shall be, indeed he shall be as your mouth. And you shall be to him as God.
17 “Moreover, you shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do miracles.”
18 Therefore, Moses went and returned to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, “Please, let me go and return to my brothers who are in Egypt and see whether they are still alive.” Then Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.”
19 (For the LORD had said to Moses in Midian, “Go, return to Egypt. For they are all dead who plotted to kill you.)
20 Then Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on a donkey and returned toward the land of Egypt. And Moses took the rod of God in his hand.
21 And the LORD said to Moses, “When you have entered and come into Egypt again, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your hand. But I will harden his heart; and he shall not let the people go.
22 “Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Israel is My son, My firstborn.
23 “Therefore I say to you, ‘Let My son go, so that he may serve Me. If you refuse to let him go, behold, I will kill your son, your firstborn.’”’”
24 And as he was on the way, in the Inn, the LORD met him, and would have killed him.
25 Then Zipporah took a sharp knife and cut away the foreskin of her son and cast it at his feet, and said, “You are indeed a bloody husband to me.”
26 So He departed from him. Then she said, “O bloody husband!” (because of the circumcision)
27 Then the LORD said to Aaron, “Go meet Moses in the wilderness.” And he went and met him on the Mount of God and kissed him.
28 Then Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD Who had sent him, and all the signs with which He had charged him.
29 So Moses and Aaron went and gathered all the elders of the children of Israel.
30 And Aaron told all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moses. And he did the miracles in the sight of the people.
31 And the people believed. And when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel and had looked upon their tribulation, they bowed down and worshipped.
7 When He had ended all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered into Capernaum.
2 And a certain centurion’s servant (who was dear to him) was sick and ready to die.
3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent the elders of the Jews to Him, asking Him to come and heal his servant.
4 So they came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, saying “He is worthy. You should do this for him.
5 “For he loves our Nation, and he has built us a synagogue.”
6 Then Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, “Lord, do not trouble Yourself. For I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.
7 “Therefore I did not think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant shall be whole.
8 “For I am also a man set under authority and have soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go.’ And he goes. And to another, ‘Come.’ And he comes. And to my servant, ‘Do this.’ And he does it.”
9 When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him. And He turned and said to the people who followed him, “I say to you, I have not found so great faith! No. Not in Israel.”
10 And when those who were sent returned to the house, they found the servant who had been sick, whole.
11 And it happened that the next day, He went into a city called Nain. And many of His disciples went with Him, and a great multitude.
12 Now when He came near to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out - the only begotten son of his mother, who was a widow - and many people of the city were with her.
13 And when the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her, and said to her, “Do not weep.”
14 And He went and touched the coffin. And those who bore him stood still. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, ‘Arise.’”
15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother.
16 Then a fear came upon them all. And they glorified God, saying, “A great Prophet is risen among us! And God has visited His people!”
17 And this word of Him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the surrounding region.
18 And the disciples of John reported all these things to him.
19 So John called two certain men of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are You the coming One? Or shall we wait for another?”
20 And when the men had come to Him, they said, “John Baptist has sent us to You, saying, ‘Are You the coming One? Or shall we wait for another?’”
21 And at that time, He cured many of their sicknesses and plagues and evil spirits. And He gave sight freely to many of the blind.
22 And Jesus answered, and said to them, “Go your ways and show John what things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor receive the Gospel.
23 “And whoever does not stumble because of Me is blessed.”
24 And when the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the people of John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see - a reed shaken with the wind?
25 “But what did you go out to see - a man clothed in soft garments? Behold, those who are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.
26 “But what did you go forth to see - a Prophet? ‘Yes’, I say to you, ‘and greater than a Prophet.’
27 “This is he of whom it is written: ‘Behold, I send My messenger before your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.’
28 “For I say to you there is no greater Prophet than John among those who are born of women. Nevertheless, whoever is the least in the Kingdom of God, is greater than him.”
29 Then all the people who heard, and the tax collectors, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
30 But the Pharisees and the expounders of the Law despised the counsel of God against themselves and were not baptized by him.
31 And the Lord said, “To what shall I liken the men of this generation? And what are they like?
32 “They are like little children sitting in the marketplace, crying one to another, saying, ‘We have played the flute for you, and you have not danced. We have mourned for you, and you have not wept.’
33 “For John Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine. And you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 “The Son of Man has come, and eats, and drinks. And you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 “But wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 And one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went into the Pharisee’s house and sat down at table.
37 And behold, a woman in the city (who was a sinner), when she knew that Jesus sat at table in the Pharisee’s house, brought a box of ointment.
38 And she stood behind him, weeping at his feet. And she began to wash his feet with her tears. And she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Now when the Pharisee who had asked Him, saw it, he spoke to himself, saying, “If this man were a Prophet, He would surely have known who and what kind of woman this is who touches Him. For she is a sinner.”
40 And Jesus answered, and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he said, “Master, say on.”
41 “There was a certain lender who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 “When they had nothing with which to pay, he forgave them both. Therefore, tell Me, which of them will love him most?”
43 Simon answered, and said, “I suppose the one to whom he forgave most.” And He said to him, “You have judged rightly.”
44 Then he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, “See this woman? I entered into your house and you gave Me no water for my feet. But she has washed my feet with tears and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45 “You gave Me no kiss. But since the time I came in, she has not ceased to kiss My feet.
46 “You did not anoint My head with oil. But she has anointed My feet with ointment.
47 “Therefore I say to you her many sins are forgiven. For she has loved much. But the one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
48 And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 And those who sat at table with Him began to say among themselves, “Who is this Who even forgives sins?”
50 And He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
21 But Job answered, and said,
2 “Hear diligently my words. And let this be your consolation.
3 “Allow me to speak. And when I have spoken, mock on.
4 “Is my complaint to man? If it were so, why should not my spirit be troubled?
5 “Mark me and be appalled. And lay your hand upon your mouth.
6 “Even when I remember, I am afraid. And fear takes hold of my flesh.
7 “Why do the wicked live, grow old, and increase in wealth?
8 “Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their generation before their eyes.
9 “Their houses are peaceable, without fear. And the rod of God is not upon them.
10 “Their bull breeds, without fail. Their cow calves, and does not cast her calf.
11 “They send forth their children like sheep, and their sons dance.
12 “They take the tambourine and harp and rejoice in the sound of the organs.
13 “They spend their days in wealth, and suddenly they go down to the grave.
14 “They say also to God, ‘Depart from us! For we do not desire the knowledge of Your ways!
15 ‘Who is the Almighty, that we should serve him? And what profit should we have, if we should pray to him?’
16 “Lo, their wealth is not in their hand. Let the counsel of the wicked be far from me.
17 “How often shall the candle of the wicked be put out and their destruction come upon them? He will divide their lives in His wrath.
18 “They shall be as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carries away.
19 “God will lay up sorrow for one’s children. When He rewards him, he shall know it.
20 “His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.
21 “For what pleasure does he have in his house after him when the number of his months is cut off?
22 “Shall any teach God knowledge, Who judges the highest things?
23 “One dies in his full strength, being in all ease and prosperity.
24 “His breasts are full of milk, and his bones run full of marrow.
25 “And another dies in the bitterness of his soul, and never eats with pleasure.
26 “They both shall sleep in the dust. And the worms shall cover them.
27 “Behold, I know your thoughts, and the enterprises with which you do me wrong.
28 “For you say, ‘Where is the prince’s house?’ and ‘Where is the tabernacle of the wicked’s dwelling?’
29 “Have you not asked those who go by the way? And you cannot deny their signs.
30 “But the wicked are kept to the Day of Destruction. They shall be brought forth to the Day of Wrath.
31 “Who shall declare his way to His face? And who shall reward him for what he has done?
32 “Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and remain in the heap.
33 “The slimy valley shall be sweet to him, and every man shall follow him, as before him there were innumerable.
34 “How, then, can you comfort me in vain, seeing in your answer there remains but lies?”
8 And concerning things sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.
2 Now, if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
3 But if anyone loves God, he is known by Him.
4 Therefore, concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
5 For though there are those that are called gods, whether in Heaven or on Earth (as there are many gods, and many lords.)
6 Yet to us there is but one God, the Father (from Whom are all things, and we are in Him), and one Lord Jesus Christ, (through Whom are all things, and we are through Him).
7 But not everyone has that knowledge. For some, being conscience of the idol until now, eat as though sacrificing to an idol. And so, their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
8 But food does not make us commendable to God. For we are neither more so if we eat it, nor less so if we do not eat it.
9 But take heed, lest by any means this power of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.
10 For if anyone sees you, who has knowledge, sit at table in the idols’ temple, shall not his conscience, which is weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?
11 And through your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died.
12 Now when you sin so against the brothers, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
13 So if food offends my brother, I will eat no flesh while the world stands, that I may not offend my brother.
