Leviticus 15

15 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:

Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: The man that hath an issue of seed, shall be unclean.

And then shall he be judged subject to this evil, when a filthy humour, at every moment, cleaveth to his flesh, and gathereth there.

Every bed on which he sleepeth, shall be unclean, and every place on which he sitteth.

If any man touch his bed, he shall wash his clothes: and being washed with water, he shall be unclean until the evening.

If a man sit where that man hath sitten, he also shall wash his clothes: and being washed with water, shall be unclean until the evening.

He that toucheth his flesh, shall wash his clothes: and being himself washed with water shall be unclean until the evening.

If such a man cast his spittle upon him that is clean, he shall wash his clothes: and being washed with water, he shall be unclean until the evening.

The saddle on which he hath sitten shall be unclean.

10 And whatsoever has been under him that hath the issue of seed, shall be unclean until the evening. He that carrieth any of these things, shall wash his clothes: and being washed with water, he shall be unclean until the evening.

11 Every person whom such a one shall touch, not having washed his hands before, shall wash his clothes: and being washed with water, shall be unclean until the evening.

12 If he touch a vessel of earth, it shall be broken: but if a vessel of wood, if shall be washed with water.

13 If he who suffereth this disease be healed, he shall number seven days after his cleansing, and having washed his clothes, and all his body in living water, he shall be clean.

14 And on the eighth day he shall take two turtles, or two young pigeons, and he shall come before the Lord, to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and shall give them to the priest:

15 Who shall offer one for sin, and the other for a holocaust: and he shall pray for him before the Lord, that he may be cleansed of the issue of his seed.

16 The man from whom the seed of copulation goeth out, shall wash all his body with water: and he shall be unclean until the evening.

17 The garment or skin that he weareth, he shall wash with water, and it shall be unclean until the evening.

18 The woman, with whom he copulateth, shall be washed with water, and shall be unclean until the evening.

19 The woman, who at the return of the month, hath her issue of blood, shall be separated seven days.

20 Every one that toucheth her, shall be unclean until the evening.

21 And every thing that she sleepeth on, or that she sitteth on in the days of her separation, shall be defiled.

22 He that toucheth her bed shall wash his clothes: and being himself washed with water, shall be unclean until the evening.

23 Whosoever shall touch any vessel on which she sitteth, shall wash his clothes: and himself being washed with water, shall be defiled until the evening.

24 If a man copulateth with her in the time of her flowers, he shall be unclean seven days: and every bed on which he shall sleep shall be defiled.

25 The woman that hath an issue of blood many days out of her ordinary time, or that ceaseth not to flow after the monthly courses, as long as she is subject to this disease, shall be unclean, in the same manner as if she were in her flowers.

26 Every bed on which she sleepeth, and every vessel on which she sitteth, shall be defiled.

27 Whosoever toucheth them shall wash his clothes: and himself being washed with water, shall be unclean until the evening.

28 If the blood stop and cease to run, she shall count seven days of her purification:

29 And on the eighth day she shall offer for herself to the priest, two turtles, or two young pigeons, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony:

30 And he shall offer one for sin, and the other for a holocaust, and he shall pray for her before the Lord, and for the issue of her uncleanness.

31 You shall teach therefore the children of Israel to take heed of uncleanness, that they may not die in their filth, when they shall have defiled my tabernacle that is among them.

32 This is the law of him that hath the issue of seed, and that is defiled by copulation.

33 And of the woman that is separated in her monthly times, or that hath a continual issue of blood, and of the man that sleepeth with her.

Psalm 18

18 Unto the end. A psalm for David.

The heavens shew forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands.

Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge.

There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.

Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.

He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way:

His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.

The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.

The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.

10 The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.

11 More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.

12 For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward.

13 Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord:

14 And from those of others spare thy servant. If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: and I shall be cleansed from the greatest sin.

15 And the words of my mouth shall be such as may please: and the meditation of my heart always in thy sight. O Lord, my helper, and my redeemer.

Proverbs 29

29 The man that with a stiff neck despiseth him that reproveth him, shall suddenly be destroyed: and health shall not follow him.

When just men increase, the people shall rejoice: when the wicked shall bear rule, the people shall mourn.

A man that loveth wisdom, rejoiceth his father: but he that maintaineth bar lots, shall squander away his substance.

A just king setteth up the land: a covetous man shall destroy it.

A man that speaketh to his friend with flattering and dissembling words, spreadeth a net for his feet.

A snare shall entangle the wicked man when he sinneth: and the just shall praise and rejoice.

The just taketh notice of the cause of the poor: the wicked is void of knowledge.

Corrupt men bring a city to ruin: but wise men turn away wrath.

If a wise man contend with a fool, whether he be angry or laugh, he shall find no rest.

10 Bloodthirsty men hate the upright: but just men seek his soul.

11 A fool uttereth all his mind: a wise man deferreth, and keepeth it till afterwards.

12 A prince that gladly heareth lying words, hath all his servants wicked.

13 The poor man and the creditor have met one another: the Lord is the enlightener of them both.

14 The king that judgeth the poor in truth, his throne shall be established for ever.

15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but the child that is left to his own will bringeth his mother to shame.

16 When the wicked are multiplied, crimes shall be multiplied: but the just shall see their downfall.

17 Instruct thy son, and he shall refresh thee, and shall give delight to thy soul.

18 When prophecy shall fail, the people shall be scattered abroad: but he that keepeth the law is blessed.

19 A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer.

20 Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.

21 He that nourisheth his servant delicately from his childhood, afterwards shall find him stubborn.

22 A passionate man provoketh quarrels: and he that is easily stirred up to wrath, shall be more prone to sin.

23 Humiliation followeth the proud: and glory shall uphold the humble of spirit.

24 He that is partaker with a thief, hateth his own soul: he heareth one putting him to his oath, and discovereth not.

25 He that feareth man, shall quickly fall: he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be set on high.

26 Many seek the face of the prince: but the judgment of every one cometh forth from the Lord.

27 The just abhor the wicked man: and the wicked loathe them that are in the right way. The son that keepeth the word, shall be free from destruction.

2 Thessalonians 3

For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of God may run, and may be glorified, even as among you;

And that we may be delivered from importunate and evil men; for all men have not faith.

But God is faithful, who will strengthen and keep you from evil.

And we have confidence concerning you in the Lord, that the things which we command, you both do, and will do.

And the Lord direct your hearts, in the charity of God, and the patience of Christ.

And we charge you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother walking disorderly, and not according to the tradition which they have received of us.

For yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we were not disorderly among you;

Neither did we eat any man's bread for nothing, but in labour and in toil we worked night and day, lest we should be chargeable to any of you.

Not as if we had not power: but that we might give ourselves a pattern unto you, to imitate us.

10 For also when we were with you, this we declared to you: that, if any man will not work, neither let him eat.

11 For we have heard there are some among you who walk disorderly, working not at all, but curiously meddling.

12 Now we charge them that are such, and beseech them by the Lord Jesus Christ, that, working with silence, they would eat their own bread.

13 But you, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed:

15 Yet do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you everlasting peace in every place. The Lord be with you all.

17 The salutation of Paul with my own hand; which is the sign in every epistle. So I write.

18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
