M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan
Moadim: Appointed Times
28 Adonai spoke to Moses saying, 2 “Command Bnei-Yisrael and tell them to be careful to present to Me at the moadim My food offerings by fire as a pleasing aroma. 3 Tell them: This is the fire offering which you are to present to Adonai: two male lambs a year old, without flaw, as a daily regular burnt offering. 4 Prepare one lamb in the morning and the other lamb you are to prepare at twilight, 5 along with a tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a grain offering, mixed with a fourth of a hin[a] of oil from pressed olives. 6 This is the regular burnt offering initiated at Mount Sinai, as a pleasing aroma, a fire offering to Adonai. 7 With each lamb pour out a fourth of a hin of fermented drink at the Sanctuary as a drink offering to Adonai. 8 Prepare the second lamb at twilight with the same type of grain and drink offerings you prepared in the morning, a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to Adonai.
Shabbat: Weekly Rest
9 “On the Shabbat, you are to present two flawless male lambs a year old, along with two tenths of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil and its drink offering. 10 This is the burnt offering for every Shabbat, besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.
Rosh Chodesh: New Moon
11 “On the first of the month you are to present to Adonai a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven flawless male lambs a year old, 12 with three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering with each bull, and two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering with the ram, 13 and with each lamb a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, a burnt offering as a pleasing aroma, an offering by fire to Adonai. 14 Their drink offerings shall be: per bull, half a hin of wine, a third of a hin of wine per ram, and, a fourth of a hin per lamb. This will be the monthly burnt offering at each new moon throughout the year. 15 Also, one male goat as a sin offering to Adonai beside the regular burnt offering is to be offered with its drink offering.
Pesach: Passover
16 “On the fourteenth day of the first month is Adonai’s Passover. 17 On the fifteenth day, there is to be a feast. For seven days, matzot will be eaten. 18 You are to hold a sacred assembly on the first day. You are not to do any laborious work. 19 You are to offer to Adonai burnt offering by fire, two young bulls, one ram and seven male lambs a year old. They are to be flawless. 20 You are to offer their grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, three tenths of an ephah per bull, two tenths per ram, 21 and one tenth per each of the seven lambs, 22 plus one goat for a sin offering to atone for yourselves. [b] 23 In addition to the morning burnt offering and regular burnt offering, you are to offer these. 24 Just like this you are to offer each day, for seven days, the food to be offered by fire for each day as a pleasing aroma to Adonai, beside the regular burnt offering with its drink offering. 25 On the seventh day, you are to have a sacred assembly, and you are to do no laborious work.
Shavuot: Feast of Weeks
26 “On the Day of Firstfruits, when you offer to Adonai a new grain offering during the Feast of Weeks, you are to have a sacred assembly. You are to do no laborious work. 27 You are to offer as a pleasing aroma a burnt offering to Adonai, two young bulls from the herd, one ram and seven male lambs a year old. 28 With each bull there is to be a grain offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, with the ram two tenths, 29 and with each lamb, one tenth, 30 plus one male goat to make atonement for you. 31 In addition, you are to prepare the regular burnt offering with its grain offering and its drink offering. They are to be without defect.
A Powerful King for the Poor
Psalm 72
1 Of Solomon.
Give the king Your judgments, O God,
and Your righteousness to the king’s son.
2 May he judge Your people with righteousness,
and Your poor ones with justice.
3 Let the mountains bring shalom to the people,
and the hills righteousness.
4 May he vindicate the poor of the people,
save the children of the needy,
and crush the oppressor.
5 Let them fear You while the sun endures,
and while the moon lasts, throughout all generations.
6 May he be like rain falling on a mown field,
like showers watering the ground.
7 Let the righteous flourish in his days.
Let shalom abound till the moon is no more.
8 May he have dominion from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth.
9 Let desert dwellers bow before him,
and his enemies lick the dust.
10 May kings of Tarshish and the islands bring tribute,
kings of Sheba and Seba offer gifts.
11 So let all kings bow down before him,
and all nations serve him.
12 For he rescues the needy crying for help,
also the poor and the one with no helper.
13 He will take pity on the poor and needy,
and the souls of the needy he will save.
14 From oppression and violence he redeems their soul,
for precious is their blood in his sight.
15 Long may he live!
May gold from Sheba be given to him.
May he pray for him continually,
and bless him all day.
16 Let there be abundance of grain in the land.
Let it sway on the top of the hills,
let its fruit be like Lebanon,
and let people of the city flourish like grass of the field.
17 May his name endure forever.
May his name increase before the sun,
and may all nations be blessed by him
and call him blessed.
18 Blessed be Adonai Elohim, God of Israel,
who alone does wonders.
19 Blessed be His glorious Name forever.
May all the earth be filled with His glory!
Amen and Amen!
20 The prayers of David son of Jesse are complete.
Egypt Will Know Adonai
19 The burden of Egypt:
Behold, Adonai rides upon a swift cloud
and comes to Egypt.
Egypt’s idols tremble before Him
and Egypt’s heart melts within them.
2 I will stir up Egyptian against Egyptian.
Everyone will fight against his brother,
and everyone against his neighbor—
city against city,
kingdom against kingdom.
3 The spirit of Egypt will drain within it,
and I will confuse its counsel.
So they will resort to idols, charmers,
mediums and familiar spirits.
4 I will give the Egyptians
into the hand of a cruel master—
a fierce king will rule over them.
It is a declaration of Adonai-Tzva’ot.
5 The waters from the sea will dry up,
and the river will be drained dry.
6 Then the channels will stink.
The streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up.
Reeds and rushes will rot.
7 The bulrushes by the Nile,
by the mouth of the Nile,
and everything sown by the Nile
will wither, blow away and be no more.
8 Then the fishermen will lament.
All who cast hooks in the Nile will mourn,
and those who spread nets on the waters
will languish.
9 Moreover the workers of fine flax,
and the weavers of white cloth will be ashamed.
10 Her pillars will be crushed,
All hired workers will be grieved in soul.
11 The princes of Zoan are utter fools.
Pharaoh’s wisest counselors are stupid.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
“I am the son of the wise,
a son of ancient kings”?
12 Where then are your wise men?
Let them tell you now!
Let them know what Adonai-Tzva’ot
has purposed against Egypt.
13 The princes of Zoan are fools.
The princes of Noph are deceived.
The cornerstone of her tribes
have led Egypt astray.
14 Adonai has mixed within her
a spirit of dizziness.
They make Egypt stagger in every work,
as a drunkard staggers in his vomit.
15 There will be no work for Egypt to do,
for head or tail, palm branch or rush.
16 In that day Egypt will be like women trembling with fear, because of the shaking hand of Adonai-Tzva’ot, which He is about to wave over it. 17 The land of Judah will terrify Egypt. Anyone who mentions it will be afraid, because of what Adonai-Tzva’ot has surely purposed against it.
18 In that day five cities in the land of Egypt will speak the language of Canaan, swearing allegiance to Adonai-Tzva’ot. One used to be called the City of the Sun.
19 In that day there will be an altar to Adonai in the middle of the land of Egypt, and next to the border a pillar to Adonai. 20 It will be as a sign and a witness to Adonai-Tzva’ot in the land of Egypt. For they will cry to Adonai because of oppressors, and He will send them a savior and defender—and he will deliver them. 21 So Adonai will make Himself known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know Adonai in that day. They will worship with sacrifice and offering. They will vow to Adonai, and fulfill it. 22 So Adonai will strike Egypt—striking yet healing—so they will return to Adonai, and He will respond to them and heal them.
23 In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrians will come to Egypt, and the Egyptians to Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing in the midst of the earth. 25 For Adonai-Tzva’ot has blessed, saying:
“Blessed is Egypt My people,
and Assyria My handiwork,
and Israel My inheritance.”
Sign of Nakedness
20 In the year that the Tartan[a] came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him and he fought against Ashdod and captured it, 2 at that time Adonai spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz saying, “Go, remove the sackcloth from your loins and your sandals from your feet.” So he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
3 Then Adonai said: “Just as My servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot for three years, as a sign and a wonder against Egypt and Ethiopia, 4 so will the king of Assyria lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered, to Egypt’s shame. 5 So they will be dismayed and ashamed, because they hoped in Ethiopia and boasted in Egypt. 6 Then the inhabitants of the coastland will say in that day, ‘Look, such is our hope—there we fled for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria! Now, how will we escape?’”
Greetings
1 Simon Peter, a slave and emissary of Messiah Yeshua,
To those who have received a faith equal to ours through the righteousness of our God and Savior, Messiah Yeshua:
2 May grace and shalom be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Yeshua our Lord.
Qualities for Living Forever
3 His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and virtue. 4 Through these things He has given us His precious and magnificent promises,[a] so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, since you have escaped the corruption that evil desires have brought into the world. 5 Now for this very reason, making every effort, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, patience; and to patience, godliness; 7 and to godliness, brotherly love; and to brotherly love, love. [b] 8 For if these qualities are in you and increasing, they keep you from becoming idle and unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. 9 But anyone who lacks these qualities is blind—nearsighted because he has forgotten his cleansing from past sins. 10 Therefore, brothers and sisters, make all the more effort to make your calling and election certain—for if you keep doing these things, you will never stumble. 11 For in this way entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Messiah Yeshua, will be richly provided for you.
12 Therefore I intend to keep reminding you of these things, even though you know them and are well-grounded in the truth that you have. 13 I think it right to stir you up with a reminder, as long as I remain alive in this “tent” of a body[c]— 14 knowing that my death[d] is soon, as our Lord Yeshua the Messiah has made clear to me. 15 And I will make every effort for you to always remember these things even after my departure.
Distinguishing True Testimony from Tales
16 For we did not follow cleverly concocted tales when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, but we were eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He received honor and glory from God the Father, a voice came to Him from the Majestic Glory: “This is My Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased!” [e] 18 And we ourselves heard this voice come out of heaven, when we were with Him on the holy mountain. [f] 19 Furthermore, we have the reliable prophetic word. You do well by paying attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. [g] 20 Above all understand this: no prophecy of Scripture comes about from a person’s own interpretation. 21 For no prophecy was ever brought forth by human will; rather, people spoke from God as they were moved by the Ruach ha-Kodesh.[h]
