M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan
1 Now the LORD called Moses, and spoke to him out of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, ‘If any of you offers a sacrifice to the LORD, you shall offer your sacrifice from livestock, from the herd and from the sheep.
3 ‘If his sacrifice is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male, without blemish (presenting him, of his own voluntary will, at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, before the LORD).
4 ‘And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him, to be his atonement.
5 ‘And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD. And the Priests, Aaron’s sons, shall offer the blood and shall sprinkle it all around, upon the altar that is by the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
6 ‘Then, he shall slay the Burnt Offering and cut it in pieces.
7 ‘So, the sons of Aaron the Priest shall put fire upon the altar and lay the wood in order, upon the fire.
8 ‘Then, the Priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts in order (the head and the fat) upon the wood that is in the fire which is upon the Altar.
9 ‘But, he shall wash its entrails and its legs in water. And the Priest shall burn all on the Altar. It is a Burnt Offering, an oblation made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.
10 ‘And if his sacrifice for the Burnt Offering is from the flocks (from the sheep, or from the goats) he shall offer a male without blemish.
11 ‘And he shall kill it on the north side of the Altar, before the LORD. And the Priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle its blood all around upon the Altar.
12 ‘And he shall cut it in pieces, its head and its fat. And the Priest shall lay them in order, upon the wood, in the fire which is on the Altar:
13 ‘But, he shall wash the entrails and the legs with water. And the Priest shall offer the whole and burn it upon the Altar. It is a Burnt Offering, an oblation made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.
14 And if his sacrifice is a Burnt Offering to the LORD from the birds, then shall he offer his sacrifice from the turtledoves, or from the young pigeons.
15 ‘And the Priest shall bring it to the Altar, and wring the neck of it asunder, and burn it on the Altar. And its blood shall be shed upon the side of the Altar.
16 ‘And he shall pluck out its crop with its feathers, and cast them beside the Altar, on the east part, in the place of the ashes.
17 ‘And he shall split it at its wings, but not divide it completely. And the Priest shall burn it upon the Altar upon the wood that is in the fire. It is a Burnt Offering, an oblation made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.
20 Now, the first of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the sepulcher - early, when it was still dark. And she saw the stone taken away from the tomb.
2 Then she ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulcher! And we do not know where they have laid Him!”
3 Therefore, Peter went out, and the other disciple, and they came to the sepulcher.
4 So they both ran together. But the other disciple outran Peter and came to the sepulcher first.
5 And he stooped down and saw the linen clothes lying. Still, he did not go in.
6 Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the sepulcher. And he saw the linen clothes, laying.
7 And the facecloth that was upon His head was not laying with the linen clothes but was wrapped together in a place by itself.
8 Then the other disciple (who had first come to the sepulcher) went in also. And he saw it and believed.
9 For as yet they did not know the Scripture, “That He must rise again from the dead”.
10 And the disciples went away again to their own home.
11 But Mary stood outside the sepulcher, weeping. And as she wept, she stooped down into the sepulcher
12 and saw two angels in white, sitting - one at the head and the other at the feet - where the body of Jesus had lain.
13 And they said to her, “Woman, why do you weep?” She said to them, “They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.”
14 When she had said this, she turned back and saw Jesus, standing. And she didn’t know that it was Jesus.
15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why do you weep? Whom do you seek?” She, supposing that He was the gardener, said to Him, “Sir, if you have taken Him from here, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away.”
16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned, and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, “Master”)
17 Jesus said to her, “Do not touch Me. For I am not yet ascended to My Father. But, go to My brothers and say to them, ‘I ascend to My Father, and to your Father, and to My God, and your God’.”
18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her.
19 The evening of the same day (which was the first of the week), when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, “Peace to you.”
20 And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. Then the disciples rejoiced, having seen the Lord.
21 Then Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you. As My Father sent Me, so I send you.”
22 And when He had said that, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Ghost.”
23 “Whoever’s sins you forgive, they are forgiven them. And whoever’s sins you retain, they are retained.”
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve (called Didymus) was not with them when Jesus came.
25 Therefore, the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in His hands and put my finger into the mark of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe it!”
26 And eight days later, His disciples were inside again and Thomas with them. Then Jesus came (when the doors were shut) and stood in their midst, and said, “Peace to you.”
27 Afterward, He said to Thomas, “Put your finger here. And see My hands. And put forth your hand and put it into My side. And do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
28 Then Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord, and my God!”
29 Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you believe. Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
30 And Jesus also did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this Book.
31 But these things are written so that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. And that in believing, you might have life, through His Name.
17 Better is a dry morsel, if peace is with it, than a house full of sacrifices with strife.
2 A discrete servant shall have rule over a lewd son. And he shall divide the heritage among the brothers.
3 The refining pot for silver and the furnace for gold; so the LORD tries the hearts.
4 The wicked are attentive to false lips. A liar listens to the destructive tongue.
5 Whoever mocks the poor, reproaches his Maker. And whoever rejoices at destruction, shall not be unpunished.
6 Children’s children are the crown of the elders. And the glory of the children are their fathers.
7 High talk does not become a fool; much less lying lips, a prince.
8 A reward is as a stone, pleasant in the eyes of those who have it. It prospers, wherever it turns.
9 Whoever covers a transgression, seeks love. But whoever repeats a matter, separates the prince.
10 A reproof enters more into the wise than a hundred stripes into a fool.
11 A seditious person seeks only evil; and a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
12 It is better for a man to meet a bear, robbed of her whelps, than a fool in his folly.
13 Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
14 The beginning of strife is as one who lets out water. Therefore, cease before contention starts.
15 Whoever justifies the wicked, and whoever condemns the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.
16 Why is there, in the hand of the fool, the price to get wisdom (when he has no heart for it)?
17 A friend loves at all times. And a brother is born for adversity.
18 A man destitute of understanding, shakes hands and becomes surety for his neighbor.
19 He loves transgression who loves strife. He who exalts his gate, seeks fracture.
20 The crooked heart finds no good. And whoever has a destructive tongue, shall fall into evil.
21 Whoever begets a fool, gets himself sorrow. And the father of a fool can have no joy.
22 A joyful heart causes good health. But a sorrowful mind dries the bones.
23 A wicked man takes a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment.
24 Wisdom is before the discerning. But the eyes of a fool are on the corners of the world.
25 A foolish son is a grief to his father, and a heaviness to her who bore him.
26 Also, it is not good to condemn the just, nor to strike princes for equity.
27 Whoever has knowledge, spares his words. And a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
28 Even a fool, when he holds his peace, is counted wise; and he who stops his lips, prudent.
4 Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and my crown, so continue in the Lord, beloved.
2 I encourage Euodia and I encourage Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.
3 Indeed and I ask you also, faithful colleague, to help these women who labored with me in the Gospel, with Clement also, and with other of my fellow laborers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I say again, rejoice!
5 Let your gentleness be known to all. The Lord is near!
6 Be anxious about nothing. But in all things, let your requests be made known to God in prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving.
7 And the peace of God - which surpasses all understanding - shall guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever things are true; whatever things are noble; whatever things are right; whatever things are pure; whatever things are lovely; whatever things are admirable; if there is any excellence or if there is any praise, think on these things.
9 That, also, which you have learned and received, and have heard and understood in me, those things do. And the God of Peace shall be with you.
10 But, I also rejoice greatly in the Lord that now at last your care for me springs afresh. Though you did care before, you lacked opportunity.
11 I do not speak because of need. For I have learned to be content in whatever state I am.
12 Also, I know how to be brought low and I know how to abound. Everywhere, and in all things, I have learned the secret of being full and of being hungry; of abounding and of having need.
13 I have strength for all things through Christ Who empowers me.
14 Nevertheless, you have done well to share in my affliction.
15 And you, Philippians, also know that in the beginning of the Gospel (when I departed from Macedonia) no church partnered with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you.
16 For even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent once and then again for my needs.
17 Not that I desire a gift. But I desire the fruit which overflows to your account.
18 However, I have received all and have plenty. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus that which came from you - a sweet-smelling sacrifice, acceptable and well-pleasing to God.
19 And my God will fulfill all your needs through His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20 Now, to God our Father be praise for ever and ever. Amen.
21 Greet all the Saints in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 All the saints greet you, and most of all those who are of Caesar’s household.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
(written to the Philippians from Rome and sent by Epaphroditus.)
