11 When the people became murmurers, it displeased the LORD. And the LORD heard it; therefore, His wrath was kindled. And the fire of the LORD burnt among them and consumed the outermost part of the camp.
2 Then the people cried to Moses. And when Moses prayed to the LORD, the fire was quenched.
3 And he called the name of the place Taberah, because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
4 And a number of people who were among them fell into lust and turned away. And the children of Israel also wept, and said, “Who shall give us meat to eat?
5 “We remember the fish we ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic.
6 “But now our soul is dried away. We can see nothing but this Manna.”
7 Now, the Manna was like coriander seed and its color like the color of bdellium.
8 The people went about and gathered and ground it in mills or beat it in mortars and baked it in a cauldron and made cakes from it. And the taste of it was like the taste of fresh oil.
9 And when the dew fell down upon the camp at night, the Manna fell with it.
10 Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent. And the wrath of the LORD was greatly kindled. Moses was also grieved.
11 And Moses said to the LORD, “Why have You afflicted Your servant? And why have I not found favor in Your sight, seeing You have put me in charge of all these people?
12 “Have I conceived all these people? Or have I begotten them, that You should say to me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse bears the sucking child, to the land which You swore to their fathers?’
13 “Where should I get meat to give to all these people? For they weep to me, saying, ‘Give us meat so that we may eat.’
14 “I am not able to bear all these people alone, for it is too heavy for me.
15 “Therefore, if You deal this way with me, please kill me (if I have found favor in Your sight) so that I do not see my misery.”
16 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Gather to Me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and governors over them. And bring them to the Tabernacle of the Congregation. And let them stand there with you.
17 “And I will come down and talk with you there and take from the Spirit Which is upon you and put it upon them. And they shall bear the burden of the people with you, so you shall not bear it alone.
18 “Furthermore, you shall say to the people, ‘Be sanctified for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat. For you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Who shall give us meat to eat? For we were better in Egypt.” Therefore, the LORD will give you meat, and you shall eat.
19 ‘You shall eat not for one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days,
20 ‘but for a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils and is loathsome to you, because you have despised the LORD, Who is among you, and have wept before Him, saying, “Why did we ever come up out of Egypt?”’”
21 And Moses said, “Among my people there are six-hundred thousand foot soldiers; and You say, ‘I will give them meat, so that they may eat for a month.’
22 “Shall the sheep and the cattle be slaughtered for them to suffice them? Or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them to suffice them?”
23 And the LORD said to Moses, “Is the LORD’s hand shortened? You shall see now whether My Word shall happen to you or not.”
24 So Moses went out and told the people the words of the LORD and gathered seventy men of the elders of the people and set them all around the Tabernacle.
25 Then the LORD came down in a cloud and spoke to him and took from the Spirit that was upon him and put it upon the seventy ancient men. And when the Spirit rested upon them, then they prophesied and did not cease.
26 But two of the men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad. And the name of the other, Medad. And the Spirit rested upon them, for they were of those who were listed but did not go out to the Tabernacle. And they prophesied in the camp.
27 Then, a young man ran and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
28 And Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, “Are you jealous for my sake? Indeed, I wish that all the LORD’s people were Prophets, and that the LORD would put His Spirit upon them.”
30 And Moses returned into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31 Then there went forth a wind from the LORD and brought quails from the sea and let them fall upon the camp, a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, all over the camp, about two cubits above the earth.
32 Then, the people arose all that day and all that night and all the next day and gathered the quails. He who gathered the least, gathered ten homers full. And they spread them throughout for their use, all around the camp.
33 While the meat was still between their teeth, `before it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people. And the LORD struck the people with an exceedingly great plague.
34 So, the name of the place was called, Kibroth Hattaavah. For there they buried the people who lusted.
35 From Kibroth Hattaavah, the people took their journey to Hazeroth and stayed at Hazeroth.
48 Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised in the City of our God, upon His Holy Mountain.
2 Mount Zion (lying northward) is beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole Earth, the City of the Great King.
3 In the palaces thereof, God is known for a refuge.
4 For lo, the kings were gathered and went together.
5 When they saw it, they marveled. They were astonished and suddenly driven back.
6 Fear came upon them there, and sorrow, as upon a woman in childbirth,
7 as when You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the City of the LORD of Hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish it forever. Selah.
9 In the midst of Your Temple we wait for Your lovingkindness, O God.
10 O God, according to Your Name, so is Your praise to the world’s end. Your right hand is full of righteousness.
11 Let Mount Zion rejoice, and the daughters of Judah be glad, because of Your judgments!
12 March around Zion and encircle it. Count the towers thereof.
13 Mark well the wall thereof. Behold her towers, so that you may tell your posterity.
14 For this God is our God, forever and ever. He shall be our guide to the death. To him who excels: A Psalm committed to the sons of Korah.
1 A vision of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Hear, O heavens, and listen, O Earth! For the LORD has said, “I have nourished and brought up children, but they have rebelled against Me.
3 “The ox knows his owner, and the donkey his master’s crib. Israel has not known. My people have not understood.”
4 Ah, sinful nation! A people laden with iniquity! A seed of the wicked! Corrupt children! They have forsaken the LORD. They have provoked the Holy One of Israel to anger. They have gone backward.
5 Why should you be stricken anymore? For you fall away more and more. The whole head is sick and the whole heart is heavy.
6 From the sole of the foot to the head, there is nothing whole therein. Wounds and swelling and sores full of corruption, they have not been wrapped or bound up or softened with oil.
7 Your land is desolate, your cities burnt with fire. Strangers devour your land in your presence and devastate it, as is the overthrow of strangers.
8 And the Daughter of Zion shall remain like a cottage in a vineyard, like a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, like a besieged city.
9 Except the LORD of Hosts had reserved to us even a small remnant, we would have been as Sodom, would have been like Gomorrah.
10 Hear the Word of the LORD, O princes of Sodom! Listen to the Law of our God, O people of Gomorrah!
11 “What have I to do with the multitude of your sacrifices?” says the LORD. “I am full of the Burnt Offerings of rams, and of the fat of fed beasts. And I do not desire the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of goats.
12 “When you come to appear before Me, who required this of your hands, to trample upon My courts?
13 “Bring no more oblations in vain. Incense is an abomination to Me. I cannot abide iniquitous new moons, or Sabbath, solemn days or solemn assemblies.
14 “My soul hates your new moons and your appointed feasts. They are a burden to Me. I am weary of bearing them.
15 “And when you shall stretch out your hands, I will hide My Eyes from you. And though you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.
16 “Wash yourself and make yourself clean. Take away the evil of your works from before My Eyes. Cease to do evil.
17 “Learn to do well. Seek judgment. Relieve the oppressed. Govern the fatherless. Defend the widow.
18 “Come now, and let us reason together,” says the LORD. “Though your sins were as crimson, they shall be made white as snow. Though they were red like scarlet, they shall be as wool.
19 “If you consent and obey, you shall eat the goods of the land.
20 “But if you refuse and are rebellious, you shall be devoured with the sword.” For the Mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
21 How has the faithful city become a harlot? It was full of judgment. Justice lodged therein—but now, murderers.
22 Your silver has become dross. Your wine is mixed with water.
23 Your princes are rebellious and companions of thieves. Everyone loves gifts and follows after rewards. They do not govern the fatherless. Nor does the widow’s cause come before them.
24 “Therefore,” says the LORD God of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, “Ah, I will relieve Myself of My adversaries and avenge Myself of My enemies.
25 “Then I will turn My Hand upon you and burn out your dross until it is pure and take away all your tin.
26 “And I will restore your Judges, as at the first, and your counselors, as at the beginning. Afterward, you shall be called a City of Righteousness, a faithful city.”
27 Zion shall be redeemed in judgment, and those who return in her, in justice.
28 And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together. And those who forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
29 For they shall be ashamed of the oaks, which you have desired. And you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
30 For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
31 And the strong shall be as tinder, and their work as a spark. And they shall both burn together. And no one shall quench them.
9 Then, indeed, the first Testament had ordinances of religion, and a worldly sanctuary.
2 For the first Tabernacle was made - in which was the candlestick, and the table, and the showbread - which is called the Holy Place.
3 And after the second veil, the Tabernacle - which is called the Holiest of All -
4 which had the golden censer and the Ark of the Testament, overlaid all around with gold (in which was the golden pot which had manna and Aaron’s rod that had budded and the tables of the Testament).
5 And over the Ark were the glorious cherubims shadowing the mercy seat, of which we will not now speak particularly.
6 Now when these things were thus prepared, the priest always went into the first Tabernacle and completed the service.
7 But only the High Priest went into the second - once every year - and not without blood (which he offered for himself and for the people’s sins of ignorance).
8 By this, the Holy Ghost signified that the way into the Holiest of All was not yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing.
9 It was a symbol of that present time in which was offered gifts and sacrifices that could not make the worshiper holy concerning the conscience,
10 but consisted only of foods and drinks and diverse washings and carnal rituals imposed until the time of reformation.
11 But Christ - being a High Priest of good things to come - came by a greater and more perfect Tabernacle (not made with hands - that is, not of this creation -
12 nor by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood), entering in once to the Holy Place and obtaining eternal redemption.
13 For if the sprinkling of the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer, sanctifies those who are unclean (as touching the purifying of the flesh),
14 how much more shall the blood of Christ - Who, through the eternal Spirit, offered Himself without fault to God - purge your conscience from dead works, to serve the living God?
15 And because of this, He is the Mediator of the new Testament, so that through death (which was for the redemption of the transgressions in the former Testament) those who were called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16 For where there is a Testament, there must be the death of the one who made it.
17 For the Testament is confirmed after death. It is still of no force so long as the one who made it lives.
18 Therefore, nor was the first ordained without blood.
19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to the people (according to the Law), he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and purple wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book and all the people,
20 saying, “This is the blood of the Testament which God has commanded you.”
21 Moreover, he likewise sprinkled the Tabernacle with blood, and all the implements of ministry.
22 And by the Law, almost all things are purged with blood. And there is no remission without shedding of blood.
23 It was necessary, then, that the representations of heavenly things should be purified with such things. But the heavenly things themselves are purified with better sacrifices than these.
24 For Christ has not entered into the Holy Places that are made with hands - which are representations of the true things - but into Heaven itself, to appear now in the sight of God for us.
25 Not that He should offer himself often, as the High Priest entered into the Holy Place every year with others’ blood.
26 For then He would have had to suffer often, since the foundation of the world. But now, in the end of the world, He has appeared once, to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
27 And as much as it has been appointed to man that he shall die once (and after that comes the Judgment),
28 so Christ was once offered to take away the sins of many. And to those who look for Him, He shall appear a second time - without sin - for salvation.
