And when
the children of Israel saw it,
they said one to another, It is
manna: for
they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto
them, This is
the bread which
the LORD hath given you to eat.
When the Israelites saw it, they asked one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. So Moses told them, “It is the bread that the LORD has given you to eat.
This is
the thing which
the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an
omer for every man, according to
the number of your persons; take ye every man for
them which are in his tents.
This is what
the LORD has commanded: ‘Each one is to gather as much as he needs. You may take an
omer for each person in your tent.’”
And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.
So the Israelites did this. Some gathered more, and some less.
And when
they did
mete it with an
omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack;
they gathered every man according to his eating.
When
they measured it by
the omer, he who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall. Each one gathered as much as he needed to eat.
And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.
Then Moses said to them, “No one may keep any of it until morning.”
Notwithstanding
they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of
them left of it until
the morning, and it
bred worms, and
stank: and Moses was
wroth with
them.
But
they did not
listen to Moses; some people left part of it until morning, and it became
infested with maggots and began to smell. So Moses was
angry with
them.
And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.
Every morning each one gathered as much as was needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted away.
And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.
On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much food—two omers per person—and all the leaders of the congregation came and reported this to Moses.
And he said unto
them, This is that which
the LORD hath said, To
morrow is
the rest of
the holy sabbath unto
the LORD:
bake that which ye will
bake to day, and
seethe that ye will
seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until
the morning.
He told
them, “This is what
the LORD has said: ‘
Tomorrow is to be a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to
the LORD. So
bake what you want to
bake, and
boil what you want to
boil.
Then set aside whatever remains and keep it until morning.’”
And
they laid it up till
the morning, as Moses
bade: and it did not
stink, neither was
there any worm
therein.
So they set it aside until morning as Moses had commanded, and it did not smell or contain any maggots.
And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the LORD: to day ye shall not find it in the field.
“Eat it
today,” Moses said, “because
today is a Sabbath to
the LORD.
Today you will not find anything in
the field.
Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.
For six days you may gather, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, it will not be there.”
And it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.
Yet on the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they did not find anything.
And the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?
Then the LORD said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep My commandments and instructions?
See, for that
the LORD hath given you
the sabbath,
therefore he giveth you on
the sixth day
the bread of two days;
abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on
the seventh day.
Understand that
the LORD has given you
the Sabbath; that is why on
the sixth day He will give you bread for two days. On
the seventh day,
everyone must stay where he is; no one may leave his place.”
So the people rested on the seventh day.
So the people rested on the seventh day.
And
the house of Israel called
the name
thereof Manna: and it was like
coriander seed, white; and
the taste of it was like
wafers made with honey.
Now
the house of Israel called
the bread
manna. It was white like
coriander seed and tasted like
wafers made with honey.
And Moses said, This is
the thing which
the LORD commandeth, Fill an
omer of it to be kept for your generations; that
they may see
the bread
wherewith I have fed you in
the wilderness, when I brought you forth from
the land of Egypt.
Moses said, “This is what
the LORD has commanded: ‘Keep an
omer of
manna for
the generations to come, so that
they may see
the bread I fed you in
the wilderness when I brought you out of
the land of Egypt.’”
And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an
omer full of
manna therein, and lay it up before
the LORD, to be kept for your generations.
So Moses told Aaron, “Take a
jar and fill it with an
omer of
manna.
Then place it before
the LORD to be preserved for
the generations to come.”
As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
And Aaron placed it in front of the Testimony, to be preserved just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
And
the children of Israel did eat
manna forty years, until
they came to a land inhabited;
they did eat
manna, until
they came unto
the borders of
the land of
Canaan.
The Israelites
ate manna forty years, until
they came to a land where
they could settle;
they ate manna until
they reached
the border of
Canaan.
And all
the congregation of
the children of Israel journeyed from
the wilderness of Sin, after
their journeys, according to
the commandment of
the LORD, and pitched in
Rephidim: and
there was no water for
the people to drink.
Then the whole congregation of Israel left
the Desert of Sin, moving from place to place as
the LORD commanded.
They camped at
Rephidim, but
there was no water for
the people to drink.
Wherefore
the people did
chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto
them, Why
chide ye with me? wherefore do ye
tempt the LORD?
So
the people
contended with Moses, “Give us water to drink.” “Why do you
contend with me?” Moses replied. “Why do you test
the LORD?”
And
the people
thirsted there for water; and
the people
murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with
thirst?
But
the people
thirsted for water
there, and
they grumbled against Moses: “Why have you brought us out of Egypt—to make us and our children and
livestock die of
thirst?”
And Moses
cried unto
the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people?
they be almost ready to stone me.
Then Moses
cried out to
the LORD, “What should I do with
these people? A little more and
they will stone me!”
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before
the people, and take with
thee of
the elders of Israel; and thy rod,
wherewith thou smotest
the river, take in thine hand, and go.
And
the LORD said to Moses, “Walk on
ahead of
the people and take some of
the elders of Israel with you. Take along in your hand
the staff with which you struck
the Nile, and go.
Behold, I will stand before
thee there upon
the rock in
Horeb; and thou shalt
smite the rock, and
there shall come water out of it, that
the people may drink. And Moses did so in
the sight of
the elders of Israel.
Behold, I will stand
there before you by
the rock at
Horeb. And when you strike
the rock, water will come out of it for
the people to drink.” So Moses did this in
the sight of
the elders of Israel.
And he called
the name of
the place Massah, and Meribah, because of
the chiding of
the children of Israel, and because
they tempted the LORD, saying, Is
the LORD among us, or not?
He named the place Massah and Meribah because the Israelites quarreled, and because they tested the LORD, saying, “Is the LORD among us or not?”
Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in
Rephidim.
And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to
morrow I will stand on
the top of
the hill with
the rod of God in mine hand.
So Moses said to Joshua, “Choose some of our men and go out to fight
the Amalekites.
Tomorrow I will stand on
the hilltop with
the staff of God in my hand.”
So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Joshua did as Moses had
instructed him and fought against
the Amalekites, while Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to
the top of
the hill.
And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
As long as Moses held up his hands, Israel prevailed; but when he lowered them, Amalek prevailed.
But Moses’ hands were heavy; and
they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat
thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands,
the one on
the one side, and
the other on
the other side; and his hands were steady until
the going down of
the sun.
When Moses’ hands grew heavy, they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. Then Aaron and Hur held his hands up, one on each side, so that his hands remained steady until the sun went down.
And Joshua
discomfited Amalek and his people with
the edge of
the sword.
So Joshua
overwhelmed Amalek and his army with
the sword.
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a
memorial in a book, and
rehearse it in
the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out
the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Write this on a
scroll as a reminder and
recite it to Joshua, because I will utterly
blot out
the memory of Amalek from under heaven.”
And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovah-nissi:
And Moses built an altar and named it
The LORD Is My
Banner.
For he said, Because
the LORD hath
sworn that
the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.
“Indeed,” he said, “a hand was lifted up toward the throne of the LORD. The LORD will war against Amalek from generation to generation.”
When Jethro,
the priest of
Midian, Moses’ father in law, heard of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, and that
the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt;
Now Moses’ father-in-law Jethro,
the priest of
Midian, heard about all that God had done for Moses and His people Israel, and how
the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt.
Then Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took Zipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her back,
After Moses had sent back his wife Zipporah, his father-in-law Jethro had received her,
And her two sons; of which
the name of
the one was Gershom; for he said, I have been an
alien in a strange land:
along with her two sons. One son was named Gershom, for Moses had said, “I have been a foreigner in a foreign land.”
And
the name of
the other was
Eliezer; for
the God of my father, said he, was mine help, and delivered me from
the sword of Pharaoh:
The other son was named
Eliezer, for Moses had said, “
The God of my father was my helper and delivered me from
the sword of Pharaoh.”
And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into
the wilderness, where he
encamped at
the mount of God:
Moses’ father-in-law Jethro, along with Moses’ wife and sons, came to him in
the desert, where he was
encamped at
the mountain of God.
And he said unto Moses, I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife, and her two sons with her.
He sent word to Moses, “I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons.”
And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did
obeisance, and
kissed him; and
they asked each other of
their welfare; and
they came into
the tent.
So Moses went out to meet his father-in-law and bowed down and
kissed him.
They greeted each other and went into
the tent.
And Moses told his father in law all that
the LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to
the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, and all
the travail that had come upon
them by
the way, and how
the LORD delivered
them.
Then Moses recounted to his father-in-law all that
the LORD had done to Pharaoh and
the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, all
the hardships
they had
encountered along
the way, and how
the LORD had delivered
them.
And Jethro
rejoiced for all
the goodness which
the LORD had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of
the hand of
the Egyptians.
And Jethro
rejoiced over all
the good things
the LORD had done for Israel, whom He had
rescued from
the hand of
the Egyptians.
And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who hath delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
Jethro declared, “Blessed be the LORD, who has delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and of Pharaoh, and who has delivered the people from the hand of the Egyptians.
Now I know that the LORD is greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they dealt proudly he was above them.
Now I know that
the LORD is greater than all other gods, for He did this when
they treated Israel with
arrogance.”
And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father in law before God.
Then Moses’ father-in-law Jethro brought a burnt offering and sacrifices to God, and Aaron came with all the elders of Israel to eat bread with Moses’ father-in-law in the presence of God.
And it came to pass on
the morrow, that Moses sat to judge
the people: and
the people stood by Moses from
the morning unto
the evening.
The next day Moses took his seat to judge the people, and they stood around him from morning until evening.
And when Moses’ father in law saw all that he did to
the people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest to
the people? why sittest thou
thyself alone, and all
the people stand by
thee from morning unto even?
When his father-in-law saw all that Moses was doing for the people, he asked, “What is this that you are doing for the people? Why do you sit alone as judge, with all the people standing around you from morning till evening?”
And Moses said unto his father in law, Because
the people come unto me to
enquire of God:
“Because the people come to me to inquire of God,” Moses replied.
When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws.
“Whenever they have a dispute, it is brought to me to judge between one man and another, and I make known to them the statutes and laws of God.”
And Moses’ father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
But Moses’ father-in-law said to him, “What you are doing is not good.
Thou
wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with
thee: for this thing is too heavy for
thee; thou art not able to perform it
thyself alone.
Surely you and
these people with you will wear
yourselves out, because
the task is too heavy for you. You cannot handle it alone.
Hearken now unto my voice, I will give
thee counsel, and God shall be with
thee: Be thou for
the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring
the causes unto God:
Now
listen to me; I will give you some advice, and may God be with you. You must be
the people’s representative before God and bring
their causes to Him.
And thou shalt teach
them ordinances and laws, and shalt
shew them the way wherein
they must walk, and
the work that
they must do.
Teach them the statutes and laws, and show them the way to live and the work they must do.
Moreover thou shalt provide out of all
the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth,
hating covetousness; and place such over
them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of
fifties, and rulers of tens:
And let
them judge
the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter
they shall bring unto
thee, but every small matter
they shall judge: so shall it be easier for
thyself, and
they shall bear
the burden with
thee.
Have
these men judge
the people at all times.
Then they can bring you any major issue, but all minor cases
they can judge on
their own, so that your load may be
lightened as
they share it with you.
If thou shalt do this thing, and God command
thee so,
then thou shalt be able to
endure, and all this people shall also go to
their place in peace.
If you follow this advice and God so directs you,
then you will be able to
endure, and all
these people can go home in peace.”
So Moses
hearkened to
the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said.
Moses
listened to his father-in-law and did everything he said.
And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made
them heads over
the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of
fifties, and rulers of tens.
So Moses chose capable men from all Israel and made
them heads over
the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of
fifties, and of tens.
And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.
And they judged the people at all times; they would bring the difficult cases to Moses, but any minor issue they would judge themselves.
And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land.
Then Moses sent his father-in-law on his way, and Jethro returned to his own land.
In
the third month, when
the children of Israel were gone forth out of
the land of Egypt,
the same day came
they into
the wilderness of
Sinai.
In
the third month, on
the same day of
the month that
the Israelites had left
the land of Egypt,
they came to
the Wilderness of
Sinai.
For
they were departed from
Rephidim, and were come to
the desert of
Sinai, and had pitched in
the wilderness; and
there Israel camped before
the mount.
After
they had set out from
Rephidim,
they entered
the Wilderness of
Sinai, and Israel camped
there in front of
the mountain.
And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;
Then Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, “This is what you are to tell the house of Jacob and explain to the sons of Israel:
Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto myself.
‘You have seen for
yourselves what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.
Now
therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant,
then ye shall be a peculiar
treasure unto me above all people: for all
the earth is mine:
Now if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, you will be My
treasured possession out of all
the nations—for
the whole earth is Mine.
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
And unto Me you shall be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you are to speak to the Israelites.”
And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words which the LORD commanded him.
So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all these words that the LORD had commanded him.
And all the people answered together, and said, All that the LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the LORD.
And all the people answered together, “We will do everything that the LORD has spoken.” So Moses brought their words back to the LORD.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto the LORD.
The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will come to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you, and they will always put their trust in you.” And Moses relayed to the LORD what the people had said.
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto
the people, and
sanctify them to day and to
morrow, and let
them wash
their clothes,
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to
the people and
consecrate them today and
tomorrow.
They must wash
their clothes
And be ready against
the third day: for
the third day
the LORD will come down in
the sight of all
the people upon mount
Sinai.
and be prepared by
the third day, for on
the third day
the LORD will come down on Mount
Sinai in
the sight of all
the people.
And thou shalt set bounds unto
the people round about, saying, Take
heed to
yourselves, that ye go not up into
the mount, or touch
the border of it:
whosoever toucheth
the mount shall be surely put to death:
And you are to set up a boundary for
the people around
the mountain and tell
them, ‘Be careful not to go up on
the mountain or touch its base.
Whoever touches
the mountain shall surely be put to death.
There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, it shall not live: when
the trumpet soundeth long,
they shall come up to
the mount.
No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with arrows—whether man or beast, he must not live.’ Only when the ram’s horn sounds a long blast may they approach the mountain.”
And Moses went down from
the mount unto
the people, and
sanctified the people; and
they washed
their clothes.
When Moses came down from the mountain to the people, he consecrated them, and they washed their clothes.
And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day: come not at your wives.
“Be prepared for the third day,” he said to the people. “Do not draw near to a woman.”
And it came to pass on
the third day in
the morning, that
there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon
the mount, and
the voice of
the trumpet exceeding loud; so that all
the people that was in
the camp
trembled.
On
the third day, when morning came,
there was
thunder and
lightning. A thick cloud was upon
the mountain, and a very loud blast of
the ram’s horn went out, so that all
the people in
the camp
trembled.
And Moses brought forth
the people out of
the camp to meet with God; and
they stood at
the nether part of
the mount.
Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
And mount
Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because
the LORD descended upon it in fire: and
the smoke
thereof ascended as
the smoke of a furnace, and
the whole mount
quaked greatly.
Mount
Sinai was completely
enveloped in smoke, because
the LORD had descended on it in fire. And
the smoke rose like
the smoke of a furnace, and
the whole mountain
quaked violently.
And when
the voice of
the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.
And as
the sound of
the ram’s horn grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him in
the thunder.
And
the LORD came down upon mount
Sinai, on
the top of
the mount: and
the LORD called Moses up to
the top of
the mount; and Moses went up.
The LORD descended to
the top of Mount
Sinai and called Moses to
the summit. So Moses went up,
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge
the people, lest
they break through unto
the LORD to
gaze, and many of
them perish.
and
the LORD said to him, “Go down and
warn the people not to break through to see
the LORD, lest many of
them perish.
And let
the priests also, which come near to
the LORD,
sanctify themselves, lest
the LORD break forth upon
them.
Even
the priests who approach
the LORD must
consecrate themselves, or
the LORD will break out against
them.”
And Moses said unto
the LORD,
The people cannot come up to mount
Sinai: for thou chargedst us, saying, Set bounds about
the mount, and
sanctify it.
But Moses said to
the LORD, “
The people cannot come up Mount
Sinai, for You solemnly
warned us, ‘Put a boundary around
the mountain and set it apart as holy.’”
And the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee down, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people break through to come up unto the LORD, lest he break forth upon them.
And the LORD replied, “Go down and bring Aaron with you. But the priests and the people must not break through to come up to the LORD, or He will break out against them.”
So Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them.
So Moses went down to the people and spoke to them.
And God spake all these words, saying,
And God spoke all these words:
I am
the LORD thy God, which have brought
thee out of
the land of Egypt, out of
the house of
bondage.
“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
Thou shalt not make unto
thee any
graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in
the earth beneath, or that is in
the water under
the earth:
You shall not make for
yourself an
idol in
the form of anything in
the heavens above, on
the earth below, or in
the waters beneath.
Thou shalt not bow down
thyself to
them, nor serve
them: for I
the LORD thy God am a
jealous God, visiting
the iniquity of
the fathers upon
the children unto
the third and fourth generation of
them that
hate me;
You shall not bow down to
them or worship
them; for I,
the LORD your God, am a
jealous God, visiting
the iniquity of
the fathers on
their children to
the third and fourth generations of those who
hate Me,
And
shewing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me, and keep my commandments.
but showing loving devotion to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
You shall not take
the name of
the LORD your God in vain, for
the LORD will not leave
anyone unpunished who takes His name in vain.
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
But
the seventh day is
the sabbath of
the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy
manservant, nor thy
maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
but
the seventh day is a Sabbath to
the LORD your God, on which you must not do any work—neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your
manservant or
maidservant or
livestock, nor
the foreigner within your gates.
For in six days
the LORD made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that in
them is, and rested
the seventh day: wherefore
the LORD blessed
the sabbath day, and
hallowed it.
For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Honor your father and mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.
