Joshua 14-15

14 These are also the places which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the Priest and Joshua the son of Nun and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel distributed to them,

by the lot of their inheritance, as the LORD had Commanded by the hand of Moses, to give to the nine tribes, and the half tribe.

For Moses had given inheritance to two tribes and a half tribe, beyond Jordan. But to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.

For the children of Joseph were two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim. Therefore, they gave no part to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, with the suburbs of the same for their beasts and their substance.

As the LORD had Commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did when they divided the land.

Then the children of Judah came to Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, “You know what the LORD said to Moses, the man of God, concerning you and me in Kadesh Barnea.

“I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the LORD, sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. And I brought him word back from my heart.

“But my brethren who went up with me discouraged the heart of the people. Yet, I still followed the LORD my God.

“Therefore, Moses swore the same day, saying, ‘Certainly the land on which your feet have walked shall be your inheritance, and your children’s, forever, because you have followed constantly the LORD my God.’

10 “Therefore, behold now, the LORD has kept me alive, as He promised. This is the forty-fifth year since the LORD spoke this thing to Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. And now, lo, I am, this day, eighty-five years old.

11 “And I am just as strong at this time as I was when Moses sent me. As strong as I was then, so strong am I now, for war or for government.

12 “Now, therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke on that day (for you heard on that day how Anakim were there, and the cities great and walled) if so be that the LORD will be with me, so that I may drive them out, as the LORD said.”

13 Then Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, for an inheritance.

14 Hebron, therefore, became the inheritance of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, until this day, because he followed constantly the LORD God of Israel.

15 And the name of Hebron was formerly, Kirjath Arba (Arba being a great man among the Anakim). Thus, the land ceased from war.

15 This, then, was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah, by their families, to the border of Edom and the wilderness of Zin, southward, on the southern border.

And their southern border was the Salt Sea coast, from the point that looks southward.

And it went out on the south side toward Maaleh Akrabbim, and went along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side to Kadesh Barnea, and went along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and went around to Karkaa.

From there it went along to Azmon and reached to the river of Egypt. And the end of that territory was on the west side. This shall be your southern border.

Also, the eastern border shall be the Salt Sea, to the end of Jordan, and the border on the northern quarter shall be from the point of the sea, from the end of Jordan.

And this border goes up to Beth Hoglah and goes along by the north side of Beth Arabah. So, the border from there goes up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben.

Again, this border goes up to Debir, from the valley of Achor, and northward, turning toward Gilgal, which lies before the going to Adummim, which is on the southern side of the river. Also this border goes up to the waters of En Shemesh, and ends at En Rogel.

Then, this border goes up to the valley of the son of Hinnom, on the southern side of the Jebusites. Jerusalem is the same. Also, this border goes up to the top of the mountain that lies before the valley of Hinnom, westward, which is by the end of the valley of giants, northward.

So, this border goes around from the top of the mountain to the fountain of the water of Nephtoah and goes out to the cities of Mount Ephron. And this border draws to Baalah, which is Kirjath Jearim.

10 Then, this border goes around from Baalah westward to Mount Seir and goes along to the side of Mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the northern side. It comes down to Beth Shemesh and goes to Timnah.

11 Also, this border goes out to the side of Ekron, northward. And this border draws to Shicron and goes along to Mount Baalah and stretches to Jabneel. And the ends of this territory are to the Sea.

12 And the western border is to the Great Sea. So, this border shall be the boundary of the children of Judah all around, according to their families.

13 And to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, Joshua gave a part among the children of Judah, as the LORD Commanded him: Kirjath Arba, of the father of Anak, which is in Hebron.

14 And Caleb drove three sons of Anak from there: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the sons of Anak.

15 And he went up from there to the inhabitants of Debir. And the name of Debir was formerly Kirjath Sepher.

16 Then Caleb said, “He who strikes Kirjath Sepher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah, my daughter, as a wife.”

17 And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it. And he gave him Achsah, his daughter, as a wife.

18 And as she went in, she would move him to ask her father for a field. And she dismounted her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?”

19 Then she answered, “Give me a blessing; for you have given me the South country. Give me also springs of water.” And he gave her the springs above and the springs beneath.

20 This shall be the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah, according to their families.

21 And the outermost cities of the tribe of the children of Judah, toward the territories of Edom, southward, were: Kabzeel, Eder, Jagur,

22 Kinah, Dimonah, Adadah,

23 Kedesh, Hazor, Ithnan,

33 In the low country were: Eshtaol, Zorah, Ashnah,

34 Zanoah, En Gannim, Tappuah, Enam,

35 Jarmuth, Adullam, Socoh, Azekah,

36 Sharaim, Adithaim, Gederah, and Gederothaim, fourteen cities with their villages;

38 Dilean, Mizpah, Joktheel,

39 Lachish, Bozkath, Eglon,

40 Cabbon, Lahmas, Kithlish,

41 Gederoth, Beth Dagon, Naamah, Makkedah, sixteen cities with their villages;

42 Libnah, Ether, Ashan,

43 Jiphtah, Ashnah, Nezib,

44 Keilah, Achzib, Mareshah, nine cities with their villages;

45 Ekron with her towns and her villages;

46 from Ekron to the Sea, all that lies around Ashdod, with their villages;

47 Ashdod with her towns and her villages. Gaza, with her towns and her villages, to the river of Egypt and the great Sea was their border.

48 And in the mountains were Shamir, Jattir, Sochoh,

49 Dannah, Kirjath Sannah (which is Debir)

50 Anab, Eshtemoh, Anim,

51 Goshen, Holon, Giloh, eleven cities with their villages;

52 Arab, Dumah, Eshean,

53 Janum, Beth Tappuah, Aphekah,

54 Humtah, Kirjath Arba (which is Hebron) and Zior, nine cities with their villages;

55 Maon, Carmel, Ziph, Juttah,

56 Jezreel, Jokdeam, Zanoah,

57 Kain, Gibeah, and Timnah, ten cities with their villages;

58 Halhul, Beth Zur, Gedor,

59 Maarath, Beth Anoth, and Eltekon, six cities with their villages;

60 Kirjath Baal (which is Kirjath Jearim) and Rabbah, two cities with their villages.

61 In the wilderness were Beth Arabah, Middin, Secacah,

62 Nibshan, the City of Salt, and En Gedi, five cities with their villages.

63 Nevertheless, the Jebusites, who were the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the children of Judah could not cast out. But the Jebusites dwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem to this day.

Psalm 146-147

146 Praise the LORD, O my soul!

I will praise the LORD during my life. As long as I have any being, I will sing to my God.

Do not put your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, for there is no help in him.

His breath departs. He returns to his earth. Then, his thoughts perish.

Blessed is he who has the God of Jacob for his help; whose hope is in the LORD his God,

Who made Heaven and Earth, the sea, and all that therein is. Who keeps his fidelity forever.

Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives bread to the hungry. The LORD frees the prisoners.

The LORD gives sight to the blind. The LORD raises up the crooked. The LORD loves the righteous.

The LORD keeps the strangers. He relieves the fatherless and widow; but He overthrows the way of the wicked.

10 The LORD shall reign forever! O Zion, your God endures from generation to generation. Praise the LORD!

147 Praise the LORD, for it is good to sing to our God; for it is a pleasant thing and praise is comely.

The LORD builds up Jerusalem and gathers together the dispersed of Israel.

He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their sores.

He counts the number of the stars and calls them all by their names.

Great is our LORD, and great is his power. His wisdom is infinite.

The LORD relieves the meek and abases the wicked to the ground.

Sing to the LORD with praise! Sing upon the harp to our God,

Who covers the heavens with clouds and prepares rain for the Earth and makes the grass grow upon the mountains;

Who gives food to beasts and to the young ravens that cry.

10 He has no pleasure in the strength of a horse, nor does He delight in the legs of man.

11 The LORD delights in those who fear Him and expectantly await His mercy.

12 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!

13 For He has made the bars of the gates strong and has blessed your children within you.

14 He sets peace on your borders and satisfies you with the flour of wheat.

15 He sends forth His Commandment upon Earth; and His Word runs very swiftly.

16 He gives snow like wool and scatters the hoary frost like ashes.

17 He casts forth His ice like morsels. Who can abide the cold thereof?

18 He sends His Word and melts them. He causes His wind to blow and the waters to flow.

19 He shows His Word to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.

20 He has not dealt so with every nation; nor have they known His judgments. Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD

Jeremiah 7

The Words that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

“Stand in the gate of the LORD’s House, and cry this Word there, and say, ‘Hear the Word of the LORD, all you of Judah who enter in at these gates, to worship the LORD!”

Thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: “Amend your ways and your works, and I will let you dwell in this place.

“Do not trust in lying words, saying, ‘The Temple of the LORD, the Temple of the LORD, this is the Temple of the LORD.’

“For if you amend and redress your ways and your works, if you execute judgment between a man and neighbor,

“and do not oppress the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place or walk after other gods, to your destruction,

“then I will let you dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, forever and ever.

“Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit.

“Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom you do not know,

10 “and come and stand before Me in this House, whereupon My Name is called, and say, ‘We are delivered, even though we have done all these abominations’?

11 “Has this House become a den of thieves, whereupon My Name is called before your eyes? Behold, even I see it,” says the LORD.

12 “But go now to My place which was in Shiloh, where I set My Name at the beginning. And behold what I did to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel.

13 “Therefore, now, because you have done all these works,” says the LORD, “I rose up early and spoke to you. But when I spoke, you would not hear Me, nor would you answer when I called.

14 “Therefore I will do to this House upon which My Name is called — in which you also trust, the place that I gave to you and to your fathers — as I have done to Shiloh.

15 “And I will cast you out of My sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, the whole seed of Ephraim.

16 “Therefore, you shall neither pray for this people nor lift up cry or prayer for them nor entreat Me. For I will not hear you.

17 “Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 “The children gather wood and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead the dough to make cakes for the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, so that they may provoke Me to anger.

19 “Do they provoke Me to anger,” says the LORD, “and not themselves to the shame of their own faces?”

20 Therefore, thus says the LORD God: “Behold, MY anger and My wrath shall be poured upon this place, upon man and upon beast, and upon the tree of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground. And it shall burn and not be quenched.”

21 Thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: “Put your Burnt Offerings with your Sacrifices and eat the flesh.

22 “For I did not speak to your fathers, or Command them, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning Burnt Offerings and Sacrifices.

23 “But this thing I Commanded them, saying, ‘Obey My Voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people. And walk in all the ways which I have Commanded you, so that it may be well with you.’

24 “But they would not obey, nor incline their ear, but went after the counsels and the stubbornness of their wicked heart and went backward and not forward.

25 “Since the day that your fathers came up out of the land of Egypt, to this day, I have even sent to you all My servants, the Prophets, rising up early every day and sending them.

26 “Yet they would not hear Me, nor incline their ear, but hardened their neck and did worse than their fathers.

27 “Therefore, you shall speak all these Words to them. But they will not hear you. You shall also cry to them, but they will not answer you.

28 “But you shall say to them, ‘This is a nation that does not hear the Voice of the LORD their God or receive discipline. Truth has perished and has been cut out of their mouth.

29 ‘Cut off your hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away. And take up a complaint on the high places. For the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of His wrath.’

30 “For the children of Judah have done evil in My sight,” says the LORD. “They have set their abominations in the House upon which My Name is called, to pollute it.

31 “And they have built the high place of Tophet, which is in the valley of Ben-Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I did not Command them. Nor did it come into My Heart.

32 “Therefore, behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that it shall not be called Tophet anymore, nor the valley of Ben-Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter. For they shall bury in Tophet until there is no place.

33 “And the carcasses of this people shall be food for the birds of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth. And no one shall frighten them away.

34 “Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride. For the land shall be desolate.”

Matthew 21

21 And when they drew near to Jerusalem, and had come to Bethphage, to the mount of the Olives. Then Jesus sent two disciples,

saying to them, “Go into the town in front of you, and soon you shall find a donkey bound, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to Me.

“And if anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord has need of them. And immediately he will let them go.”

All this was done that what was spoken by the Prophet might be fulfilled, which says,

“Tell the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your King comes to you, meek and sitting upon a donkey; and upon a colt, the foal of a beast of burden’.”

So the disciples went and did as Jesus had commanded them;

and brought the donkey and the colt, and put their garments on them, and set Him upon it.

And a great multitude spread their garments in the way. And others cut down branches from the trees and strew them in the way.

Moreover, the people who went before, as well as those who followed, cried, saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He Who comes in the Name of the Lord! Hosanna, in the highest!”

10 And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”

11 And the people said, “This is Jesus, that Prophet of Nazareth in Galilee.”

12 And Jesus went into the Temple of God, and cast out all those who sold and bought in the Temple; and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of those who sold doves;

13 and said to them, “It is written! My house shall be called the House of Prayer! But you have made it a den of thieves!”

14 Then the blind and the lame came to Him in the Temple. And He healed them.

15 But when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonders that He did, and the children crying in the Temple, and saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David”, they were angry,

16 and said to Him, “Do You hear what they say?” And Jesus said to them, “Yes. Have you never read, ‘By the mouth of children and infants You have made perfect the praise’?”

17 So He left them and went out of the city, to Bethany, and lodged there.

18 And in the morning, as He returned into the city, He was hungry.

19 And seeing a fig tree on the way, He came to it. And finding nothing on it but leaves, He said to it, “May fruit never grow on you again.” And immediately the fig tree withered.

20 And when His disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How quickly that fig tree withered!”

21 And Jesus answered and said to them, “Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you shall not only do this to the fig tree, but it shall also be done if you say to this mountain, ‘Take yourself away, and cast yourself into the sea’.

22 “And whatever you shall ask in prayer - if you believe - you shall receive it.”

23 And when He had come into the Temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him as He was teaching, and said, “By what authority do You do these things? And who gave You this authority?”

24 Then Jesus answered, and said to them, “I will also ask of you a certain thing which, if you tell me, I will likewise tell you by what authority I do these things.

25 “The baptism of John. From where did it come - from Heaven or from man?” Then they reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we shall say, ‘From Heaven’, He will say to us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’

26 “And if we say, ‘From man’, we fear the multitude.” For all held John as a Prophet.

27 Then they answered Jesus, and said, “We cannot tell.” And He said to them, “Nor will I tell you by what authority I do these things.

28 “But what do you think? A man had two sons, and came to the elder, and said, ‘Son, go and work today in my vineyard.’

29 “But he answered, and said, ‘I will not.’ But later he changed his mind and went.

30 “Then he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered, and said, ‘I will, sir.’ But he did not go.

31 “Which of the two did the will of the father?” They said to Him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes go before you into the Kingdom of God.

32 “For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. And you, though you saw it, were not moved with repentance afterward, so that you might believe him.

33 “Hear another parable. There was a certain landowner who planted a vineyard and fenced it in. And he made a winepress therein, and built a tower, and let it out to tenant farmers, and went away to a strange country.

34 “And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers to receive the fruits thereof.

35 “And the farmers took his servants and beat one, killed another, and stoned another.

36 “Again, he sent other servants (more than the first) and they did likewise to them.

37 “But last of all he sent his own son to them, saying, ‘They will revere my son’.

38 “But when the farmers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him. And let us take his inheritance.’

39 “So they took him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him.

40 “Therefore, when the Lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those farmers?”

41 They said to Him, “He will cruelly destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard to other farmers who shall deliver the fruits to him in their seasons.”

42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders refused, the same is made the Cornerstone. This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?

43 “Therefore I say to you the Kingdom of God shall be taken from you and shall be given to a nation which shall bring forth the fruits thereof.

44 “And the one who shall fall on this stone, shall be broken. But on whomever it shall fall, it will grind to powder.

45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard His parables, they perceived that He spoke of them.

46 And they, seeking to lay hands on Him, feared the people. Because they took Him as a Prophet.
