M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan
16 And the lot fell to the children of Joseph, from Jordan by Jericho to the water of Jericho, eastward, to the wilderness that goes up from Jericho by Mount Bethel
2 and goes out from Bethel to Luz and runs along to the borders of Archi Ataroth
3 and goes down westward to the territory of Japhlet, to the territory of Beth Horon (the lower) and to Gezer. And its ends are at the Sea.
4 So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5 Also, the borders of the children of Ephraim, according to their families, the borders of their inheritance on the East Side, were Ataroth Addar, to Beth Horon (the upper).
6 And this border goes out to the Sea, to Michmethath on the North Side. And this border returns eastward to Taanath Shiloh and passes it on the East Side, to Janohah,
7 and goes down from Janohah to Ataroth and Naarah and comes to Jericho and goes out at Jordan.
8 And this border goes from Tappuah, westward, to the river, Kanah. And its ends are at the Sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, by their families.
9 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10 And they did not cast out the Canaanite who dwelt in Gezer. But the Canaanite dwells among the Ephraimites to this day and serves under tribute.
17 This, also, was the lot of the tribe of Manasseh. For he was the firstborn of Joseph. Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, was the father of Gilead and Bashan, because he was a man of war.
2 And these are of the rest of the sons of Manasseh, by their families, of the sons of Abiezer and of the sons of Helek and of the sons of Asriel and of the sons of Shechem and of the sons of Hepher and of the sons of Shemida. These were the males of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, according to their families.
3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, only daughters. And these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah,
4 who came before Eleazar the Priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, “The LORD Commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren.” Therefore, according to the Commandment of the LORD, he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
5 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan which is on the other side of Jordan,
6 because the daughters of Manasseh also inherited among his sons. And Manasseh’s other sons had the land of Gilead.
7 So the borders of Manasseh were from Asher to Michmethath, that lies before Shechem. And on the right hand, this border goes to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah beside the border of Manasseh belongs to the sons of Ephraim.
9 Also, this border goes down to the river Kanah, southward, to the river. These cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh. And the border of Manasseh is on the north side of the river. And the ends of it are at the Sea.
10 The South pertains to Ephraim, and the North to Manasseh, and the sea is his border. And they met together in Asher, northward, and in Issachar, eastward.
11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Beth Shean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor with its towns, and the inhabitants of En Dor with its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach with her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo with the towns of the same, three countries.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh could not destroy those cities; but the Canaanites still dwelt in that land.
13 Nevertheless, when the children of Israel were strong, they put the Canaanites under tribute, but did not wholly cast them out.
14 Then the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given me but one lot, and one portion, to inherit, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD has blessed me until now?”
15 Then Joshua answered them, “If you are a numerous people, get up to the woods and cut trees for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites, and of the giants, if Mount Ephraim is too narrow for you.”
16 Then the children of Joseph said, “The mountain will not be enough for us. And all the Canaanites who dwell in the low country have chariots of iron, as well as those in Beth Shean and in the towns of the same, and those in the valley of Jezreel.”
17 And Joshua spoke to the House of Joseph, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, “You are a great people, and have great power, and shall not have one lot.
18 “Therefore, the mountain shall be yours. For it is a wood; and you shall cut it down. And the ends of it shall be yours. And you shall cast out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they are strong.
148 Praise the LORD from the heavens! Praise Him in the high places!
2 Praise Him, all His angels! Praise Him, all His army!
3 Praise Him, Sun and Moon! Praise Him, all bright stars!
4 Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, and waters above the heavens!
5 Let them praise the Name of the LORD; for He commanded, and they were created.
6 And He has established them forever and ever. He has made an ordinance which shall not pass.
7 Praise the LORD from the Earth, you dragons and all depths:
8 fire and hail, snow and vapors, stormy wind — which execute His Word —
9 mountains and all hills, fruitful trees, and all cedars,10 beasts and all cattle, creeping things and feathered birds,
11 kings of the Earth and all people, princes and all judges of the world,
12 young men and maidens, also old men and children.
13 Let them praise the Name of the LORD; for only His Name is to be exalted. His praise is above the Earth and the heavens.
14 For He has exalted the horn of His people — a praise for all His saints, for the children of Israel — a people that is near to Him. Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD.
8 “At that time,” says the LORD, “they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of their princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the Prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.
2 “And they shall spread them before the Sun, and the Moon, and all the host of Heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and whom they have followed, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped. They shall not be gathered or be buried, but shall be as dung upon the Earth.
3 “And death shall be desired rather than life by all the residue that remains of this wicked family, who remain in all the places where I have scattered them,” says the LORD of Hosts.’
4 “You shall also say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Shall they fall, and not arise? Shall he turn away and not turn again?
5 “Why has this people of Jerusalem backslid in a perpetual apostasy? They gave themselves to deceit and would not return.
6 “I listened and heard. No one spoke aright. No man repented of his wickedness, saying, ‘What have I done?’ Everyone turned to their running, as the horse rushes into the battle.
7 “Even the stork in the air knows her appointed times, and the turtle, and the crane, and the swallow, observe the time of their coming. But My people do not know the judgment of the LORD.
8 “How do you say, ‘We are wise, and the Law of the LORD is with us?’ Lo, certainly in vain it is made, the pen of the scribes.
9 “The wise men are ashamed. They are afraid and taken. Lo, they have rejected the Word of the LORD. And what wisdom is in them?
10 “Therefore, I will give their wives to others, their fields to those who shall possess them. For everyone, from the least to the greatest, is given to covetousness. From the Prophet to the Priest, everyone deals falsely.
11 “For they have healed the hurt of the Daughter of My people with sweet words, saying, ‘Peace, peace,’ when there is no peace.
12 “Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No, they were not ashamed. Nor could they have any shame. Therefore, they shall fall among the slain when I shall visit them. They shall be cast down,” says the LORD.’
13 “I will surely consume them,” says the LORD.’ “There shall be no grapes on the vine or figs on the fig tree. And the leaf shall fade. And the things that I have given them shall depart from them.”’”
14 Why do we stay? Assemble yourselves! And let us enter into the strong cities! And let us be quiet there. For the LORD our God has put us to silence, and given us water with gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
15 We looked for peace, but no good; for a time of health, and behold troubles.
16 The neighing of His horses was heard from Dan. The whole land trembled at the noise of the neighing of His strong horses. For they have come, and have devoured the land with all that is in it: the city and those who dwell in it.
17 “For behold, I will send serpents and vipers among you, which will not be charmed. And they shall sting you,” says the LORD.
18 I would have comforted myself against sorrow, but my heart is heavy in me.
19 Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a far country, “Is not the LORD in Zion? Is not her King in her?” “Why have they provoked Me to anger with their carved images, and with strange vanities?”
20 “The harvest is past! The summer has ended! And we are not saved!”
21 Because of the brokenness of the daughter of my people, I am broken. I mourn. Astonishment has taken me.
22 Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no Physician there? Why then has not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
22 Then Jesus answered, and spoke to them again in parables, saying,
2 “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a marriage feast for his son.
3 “And he sent forth his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding. But they would not come.
4 “Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My oxen and my fatted calves are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage”.’
5 “But they made light of it, and went their ways - one to his farm, and another about his business.
6 “And the rest took his servants, and treated them sharply, and killed them.
7 “But when the king heard it, he was angry, and sent forth his warriors, and destroyed those murderers, and burnt up their city.
8 “Then he said to his servants, ‘Truly the wedding is prepared. But those who were invited were not worthy.
9 “‘Therefore, go out into the streets. And as many as you find, invite them to the marriage.’
10 “So those servants went out into the streets, and gathered together everyone they found, both good and bad. So, the wedding was furnished with guests.
11 “Then the king came in to see the guests and saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment.
12 “And he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless.
13 “Then the king said to the servants, “Bind him hand and foot. Take him away and cast him into the outer darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14 “For many are called, but few chosen.”
15 Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might trap Him in talk.
16 And they sent their disciples to Him, with the Herodians, saying, “Master, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God truly. Nor do You care for anyone. For You do not look on the appearance of man.
17 “Therefore, tell us what You think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test Me, hypocrites?
19 “Show Me the money for the tribute.” And they brought Him a coin.
20 And He said to them, “Whose image and inscription are these?”
21 They said to Him, “Caesar’s”. Then He said to them, “Therefore, give to Caesar those things which are Caesar’s. And give to God those things which are God’s.”
22 And when they heard it, they marveled, and left Him, and went their way.
23 The same day, the Sadducees (who say that there is no resurrection) came to Him and asked Him,
24 saying, “Master, Moses said, ‘If a man dies having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up seed to his brother.’
25 “Now there were with us seven brothers. And the first married a wife and died. And having no offspring, left his wife to his brother.
26 “Likewise also the second, and the third, up to the seventh.
27 “And last of all, the woman died also.
28 “Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife shall she be of the seven? For all had her.”
29 Then Jesus answered, and said to them, “You are deceived, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 “For in the resurrection they neither marry wives, nor are wives bestowed in marriage. But they are as the angels of God in Heaven.
31 “And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what is spoken to you from God, saying,
32 “‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.”
33 And when the multitude heard it, they were astonished at His doctrine.
34 But when the Pharisees had heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they assembled together.
35 And one of them, an expounder of the Law, asked Him a question, tempting Him, and saying,
36 “Master, which is the greatest Commandment in the Law?
37 Jesus said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.
38 “This is the first and the greatest Commandment.
39 “And the second is similar. That is, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
40 “On these two Commandments hang the whole Law and the Prophets.”
41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
42 saying, “What do you think of Christ? Whose son is He?” They said to him, “David’s.”
43 He said to them, “How then does David, in spirit, call Him ‘Lord’, saying,
44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool?
45 If, then, David calls Him Lord, how is He his son?
46 And no one could answer Him a word. Nor did anyone ask Him any more questions from that day forth.
