28 “And have your brother Aaron come to you, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, so that he may serve Me in the Priest’s office. That is, Aaron and his sons Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
2 “Also, you shall make holy garments for Aaron, your brother, for glory and beauty.
3 “Therefore, you shall speak to all the skilled craftsmen, whom I have filled with the Spirit of wisdom, so that they make Aaron’s garments, to consecrate him, so that he may serve Me in the Priest’s office.
4 “Now, these shall be the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and an embroidered coat, a turban, and a sash. So shall they make these holy garments for Aaron, your brother, and for his sons, so that he may serve Me in the Priest’s office.
5 “Therefore, they shall take gold, and blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.
6 “And they shall make the ephod of gold, blue silk, and purple, scarlet, and fine-twined linen of skillful workmanship.
7 “Its two shoulders shall be joined together by their two edges. So shall it be closed.
8 And the ingenious band of the same ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same workmanship: of gold, blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and fine- twined linen.
9 “And you shall take two onyx stones and engrave upon them the names of the sons of Israel,
10 “six names upon one stone and the other six names upon the second stone, according to their generations.
11 “You shall have the two stones engraved according to the names of the sons of Israel, as an engraver of signets who works and engraves in stone. And you shall have them set and embossed in gold.
12 “And you shall put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod, as memorial stones of the sons of Israel. For Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
13 “So, you shall make settings of gold,
14 “and two chains of fine gold at the end. You shall make them of interwoven, corded work and shall fasten the corded chains upon the settings.
15 “Also, you shall make the breastplate of judgment with skilled workmanship. You shall make it like the work of the ephod. You shall make it of gold, blue silk, and purple, and scarlet, and fine-twined linen.
16 “It shall be square, double-folded, a hand-breadth long and a hand-breadth broad.
17 “Then you shall set it full of places for stones, four rows of stones. The order shall be this: a ruby, a topaz, and an emerald in the first row.
18 “And in the second row you shall set an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 “And in the third row: a turquoise, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 “And in the fourth row: a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. And they shall be set in gold settings.
21 “And the stones shall be according to the names of the sons of Israel: twelve, according to their names, engraved as signets, every one after his name. They shall be for the twelve tribes.
22 “Then you shall make two chains upon the breastplate, at the ends, of braided work of pure gold.
23 “You shall also make two rings of gold upon the breastplate and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
24 “And you shall put the two braided, corded chains of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
25 “And at the other two ends of the two braided chains, you shall fasten the two settings, and shall put them upon the shoulders of the ephod, upon the front of it.
26 “Also, you shall make two rings of gold, which you shall put at the other two ends of the breastplate, upon its border, toward the inside of the ephod.
27 “And, you shall make two rings of gold and put them on the two sides of the ephod, underneath, on the front of it, near the coupling, upon the ingenious band of the ephod.
28 “Thus shall they bind the breastplate: by its rings to the rings of the ephod, with a lace of blue silk, so that it may be fastened upon the ingenious band of the ephod, and so that the breastplate is not loosened from the ephod.
29 “So, Aaron shall bear the names of the sons of Israel on the breastplate of judgment, upon his heart, when he goes into the Holy Place, as a memorial before the LORD continually.
30 “Also, you shall put the Urim and the Thummim on the breastplate of judgment which shall be upon Aaron’s heart when he goes in before the LORD. And Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually.
31 “And you shall make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue silk.
32 “And the hole for his head shall be in the middle of it, having an edge of woven work all around the collar of it. It shall be as the collar of a coat of mail, so that it does not tear.
33 “And below, upon its hem, you shall make pomegranates of blue silk, and purple, and scarlet all around its hem, and bells of gold between them, all around
34 (a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, all around, upon the hem of the robe).
35 It shall be upon Aaron when he ministers. And his sound shall be heard when he goes into the Holy Place before the LORD and when he comes out, so he shall not die.
36 “Also, you shall make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it (as signets are engraved) HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
37 And you shall put it on a blue silk lace; and it shall be upon the turban. It shall be upon the front of the turban.
38 “So shall it be upon Aaron’s forehead, so that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the offerings which the children of Israel shall offer in all their holy offerings. And it shall always be upon his forehead, to make them acceptable before the LORD.
39 “You shall embroider the fine linen coat; and you shall make a turban of fine linen. And you shall make a sash of skillful needle work.
40 “Also, you shall make tunics for Aaron’s sons; and you shall make them sashes. And you shall make them hats, for glory and beauty.
41 “And you shall put them upon Aaron, your brother, and on his sons with him, and shall anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, so that they may minister to Me in the Priest’s office.
42 “You shall also make them linen trousers to cover their nakedness. They shall reach from the hips to the thighs.
43 “And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, when they come into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, or when they come to the Altar to minister in the Holy Place, so that they do not commit iniquity, and so die. This shall be a Law forever to him, and to his seed after him.
7 After these things, Jesus walked in Galilee. For He did not wish to walk in Judea because the Jews sought to kill Him.
2 Now the Jews’ feast of the Tabernacles was at hand.
3 Therefore, His brothers said to Him, “Leave here, and go into Judea, so that Your disciples may see Your works that You do.
4 “For no one does anything secretly when seeking to be famous. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world.”
5 For, as yet, His brothers did not believe in Him.
6 Then Jesus said to them, “My time has not yet come. But your time is always ready.
7 “The world cannot hate you. But it hates Me, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.
8 “You go up to the feast. I will not go up to this feast yet. For My time is not yet fulfilled.”
9 He said these things to them and remained in Galilee.
10 But as soon as His brothers had gone up, then He also went up to the feast; not openly, but, as it were, privately.
11 Then the Jews sought Him at the feast, and said, “Where is He?”
12 And there was much murmuring about Him among the people. Some said, “He is a good Man.” Others said, “No! But He deceives the people!”
13 However, no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.
14 Now, when half the feast was done, Jesus went up into the Temple and taught.
15 And the Jews marveled, saying, “How does this Man know the Scriptures, seeing that He never learned!?”
16 Jesus answered them, and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His Who sent Me.
17 “If anyone will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be from God, or whether I speak from myself.
18 “Whoever speaks from himself, seeks his own glory. But whoever seeks the glory of the One who sent him, he is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
19 “Did not Moses give you a Law, and yet none of you keeps the Law? Why do you seek to kill Me?”
20 The people answered, and said, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill You?”
21 Jesus answered, and said to them, “I have done one work, and you all marvel.
22 “Therefore, Moses gave circumcision to you - not because it is of Moses, but of the Fathers - and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.
23 If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with Me because I have made a man entirely whole on the Sabbath?
24 “Do not judge according to the appearance. But, judge righteous judgment.”
25 Then some of them of Jerusalem said, “Is this not He Whom they seek to kill?
26 “And behold, He speaks openly, and they say nothing to Him. Do the rulers really know that this is truly the Christ?
27 “However, we know from where this Man is. But when the Christ comes, no one shall know from where He is.”
28 Then Jesus cried in the Temple as He taught, saying, “You both know Me and know from where I am! Yet I have not come of Myself! And He who sent Me is true (Whom you do not know)!
29 “But I know Him! For I am of Him, and He has sent Me!”
30 Then they sought to take Him, but no one laid hands on Him, because His hour had not yet come.
31 Now many of the people believed in Him, and said, “When the Christ comes, will He do any more miracles than this Man has done?”
32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured these things about Him. And the Pharisees, and chief priests, sent officers to take Him.
33 Then Jesus said to them, “I am still with you a little while, and then I go to the One who sent Me.
34 “You shall seek Me and shall not find Me. And where I am, you cannot come.”
35 Then the Jews said among themselves, “Where will He go, that we shall not find Him? Will He go to those who are dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?
36 “What saying is this that He said, ‘You shall seek Me, and shall not find Me’? And, ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”
37 Now, on the last day (the great day) of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink!
38 “The one who believes in Me, as says the Scripture, ‘Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water’!”
39 (He spoke this about the Spirit, Whom those who believed in Him were about to receive. For the Holy Ghost was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 So, many of the people, when they heard this saying, said, “Truly this is the Prophet!”
41 Others said, “This is the Christ!” And some said, “But shall the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 “Does not the Scripture say that the Christ shall come from the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
43 So there was dissension among the people because of Him.
44 And some of them would have taken Him, but no one laid hands on Him.
45 Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why have you not brought Him?”
46 The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this Man speaks.”
47 Then the Pharisees answered them, “Are you also deceived?!
48 “Do any of the rulers, or any of the Pharisees, believe in Him?
49 “But this people, who do not know the Law, are cursed!”
50 Nicodemus said to them (he who came to Jesus by night, and was one of them),
51 “Does our Law judge a man before it hears him, and knows what he has done?”
52 They answered, and said to him, “Aren’t you also from Galilee? Search and see that no Prophet arises out of Galilee.
53 And each went to his own house.
4 Hear, O children, the instruction of a father. And give ear to learn understanding.
2 For I do give you a good doctrine. Therefore, do not forsake my law.
3 For I was my father’s son, tender and dear in the sight of my mother,
4 when he taught me, and said to me, “Let your heart hold fast my words. Keep my commandments, and you shall live.
5 “Get wisdom. Get understanding. Neither forget nor decline from the words of my mouth.
6 “Do not forsake her, and she shall keep you. Love her and she shall preserve you.
7 “Wisdom is the beginning. Therefore, get wisdom. And above all your possessions, get understanding.
8 “Exalt her, and she shall exalt you. She shall bring you to honor, if you embrace her.
9 “She shall give a comely ornament to your head. Indeed, she shall give you a crown of glory.
10 “Hear, my son, and receive my words. And the years of your life shall be many.
11 “I have taught you in the way of wisdom and led you in the paths of righteousness.
12 “When you go, your gait shall not be distressed. And when you run, you shall not fall.
13 “Take hold of instruction, and do not let go. Keep her, for she is your life.
14 “Do not enter into the way of the wicked. And do not walk in the way of evil.
15 “Avoid it. Do not go by it. Turn from it, and pass by.
16 “For they cannot sleep unless they have done evil. And their sleep departs unless they cause some to fall.
17 “For they eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence.
18 “But the way of the righteous shines, as the light that shines more and more until the perfect Day.
19 “The way of the wicked is as the darkness. They do not know wherein they shall fall.
20 “My son, listen to my words. Incline your ear to my sayings.
21 “Do not let them depart from your eyes. But keep them in the midst of your heart.
22 “For they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.
23 “Keep your heart with all diligence. For out of it comes life.
24 “Put away from you a perverse mouth. And put wicked lips far from you.
25 “Let your eyes behold the right. And let your eyelids direct your way before you.
26 “Ponder the path of your feet. And let all your ways be ordered aright.
27 “Do not turn to the right hand or to the left. Remove your foot from evil.”
3 O, foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth; before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?
2 This only would I learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law or by the hearing of faith?
3 Are you so foolish, that after you have begun in the Spirit, you would now be made perfect by the flesh?
4 Have you suffered so many things in vain, if so be it even in vain?
5 He, therefore, who ministers to you the Spirit, and works miracles among you, does he do it through the works of the Law, or by the hearing of faith?
6 Rather, as Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness,
7 know you therefore that those who are of faith, are the same children of Abraham.
8 For the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles through faith, preached the Gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, “In you shall all the Gentiles be blessed.”
9 So then those who are of faith, are blessed with faithful Abraham.
10 For as many as are of the works of the Law, are under the curse. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the Law, to do them.”
11 And it is evident that no one is justified by the Law, in the sight of God. For the just shall live by faith.
12 And the Law is not of faith: but the one who shall do those things, shall live in them.
13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for us, (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”).
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus. That we might receive the promise of the Spirit, through faith.
15 Brothers, I speak as man does: Though it be but man’s covenant, when it is confirmed, no one ignores it, or adds anything to it.
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He does not say, “and to the seeds”, as speaking of many, but, “And to your seed”, as of one, which is Christ.
17 And this I say, that the covenant that was previously confirmed by God in Christ, cannot be annulled by the Law, which was four hundred and thirty years after; so that it should make the promise of no effect.
18 For if the inheritance is of the Law, it is no more by the promise. But God gave it freely to Abraham by promise.
19 Why, then, the Law? It was added because of the transgressions; till the seed came, to which the promise was made. And it was ordained by Angels in the hand of a Mediator.
20 However, there is no Mediator of one. But God is one.
21 Is the Law, then, against the promises of God? Never may it be! For if there had been a Law given which could have given life, surely righteousness should have been by the Law.
22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise, by faith in Jesus Christ, should be given to those who believe.
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the Law, as under guard, and locked up, until that faith which should be revealed.
24 So that the Law was our tutor, bringing us to Christ, that we might be made righteous by faith.
25 But after that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
26 For you are all the sons of God by faith, in Christ Jesus.
27 For all you who were baptized into Christ, have put on Christ.
28 There is neither Jew nor Grecian. There is neither bond nor free. There is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs by promise.
