18:1And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there: and the land was subdued before them. 18:2And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet divided their inheritance. 18:3And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go in to possess the land, which Jehovah, the God of your fathers, hath given you? 18:4Appoint for you three men of each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall arise, and walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; and they shall come unto me. 18:5And they shall divide it into seven portions: Judah shall abide in his border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their border on the north. 18:6And ye shall describe the land into seven portions, and bring the description hither to me; and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah our God. 18:7For the Levites have no portion among you; for the priesthood of Jehovah is their inheritance: and Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them.
18:8And the men arose, and went: and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me; and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah in Shiloh. 18:9And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven portions in a book; and they came to Joshua unto the camp at Shiloh. 18:10And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Jehovah: and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.
18:11And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families: and the border of their lot went out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph. 18:12And their border on the north quarter was from the Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill-country westward; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of Beth-aven. 18:13And the border passed along from thence to Luz, to the side of Luz (the same is Beth-el), southward; and the border went down to Ataroth-addar, by the mountain that lieth on the south of Beth-horon the nether. 18:14And the border extended thence, and turned about on the west quarter southward, from the mountain that lieth before Beth-horon southward; and the goings out thereof were at Kiriath-baal (the same is Kiriath-jearim), a city of the children of Judah: this was the west quarter. 18:15And the south quarter was from the uttermost part of Kiriath-jearim; and the border went out westward, and went out to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah; 18:16and the border went down to the uttermost part of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the vale of Rephaim northward; and it went down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite southward, and went down to En-rogel; 18:17and it extended northward, and went out at En-shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is over against the ascent of Adummim; and it went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben; 18:18and it passed along to the side over against the Arabah northward, and went down unto the Arabah; 18:19and the border passed along to the side of Beth-hoglah northward; and the goings out of the border were at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan: this was the south border. 18:20And the Jordan was the border of it on the east quarter. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the borders thereof round about, according to their families.
18:21Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and Emek-keziz, 18:22and Beth-arabah, and Zemaraim, and Beth-el, 18:23and Avvim, and Parah, and Ophrah, 18:24and Chephar-ammoni, and Ophni, and Geba; twelve cities with their villages: 18:25Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth, 18:26and Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah, 18:27and Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah, 18:28and Zelah, Eleph, and the Jebusite (the same is Jerusalem), Gibeath, and Kiriath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
19:1And the second lot came out for Simeon, even for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families: and their inheritance was in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Judah. 19:2And they had for their inheritance Beer-sheba, or Sheba, and Moladah, 19:3and Hazar-shual, and Balah, and Ezem, 19:4and Eltolad, and Bethul, and Hormah, 19:5and Ziklag, and Beth-marcaboth, and Hazar-susah, 19:6and Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen; thirteen cities with their villages: 19:7Ain, Rimmon, and Ether, and Ashan; four cities with their villages: 19:8and all the villages that were round about these cities to Baalath-beer, Ramah of the South. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families. 19:9Out of the part of the children of Judah was the inheritance of the children of Simeon; for the portion of the children of Judah was too much for them: therefore the children of Simeon had inheritance in the midst of their inheritance.
19:10And the third lot came up for the children of Zebulun according to their families; and the border of their inheritance was unto Sarid; 19:11and their border went up westward, even to Maralah, and reached to Dabbesheth; and it reached to the brook that is before Jokneam; 19:12and it turned from Sarid eastward toward the sunrising unto the border of Chisloth-tabor; and it went out to Daberath, and went up to Japhia; 19:13and from thence it passed along eastward to Gath-hepher, to Eth-kazin; and it went out at Rimmon which stretcheth unto Neah; 19:14and the border turned about it on the north to Hannathon; and the goings out thereof were at the valley of Iphtah-el; 19:15and Kattath, and Nahalal, and Shimron, and Idalah, and Bethlehem: twelve cities with their villages. 19:16This is the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.
19:17The fourth lot came out for Issachar, even for the children of Issachar according to their families. 19:18And their border was unto Jezreel, and Chesulloth, and Shunem, 19:19and Hapharaim, and Shion, and Anaharath, 19:20and Rabbith, and Kishion, and Ebez, 19:21and Remeth, and Engannim, and En-haddah, and Beth-pazzez, 19:22and the border reached to Tabor, and Shahazumah, and Beth-shemesh; and the goings out of their border were at the Jordan: sixteen cities with their villages. 19:23This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their families, the cities with their villages.
19:24And the fifth lot came out for the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families. 19:25And their border was Helkath, and Hali, and Beten, and Achshaph, 19:26and Allammelech, and Amad, and Mishal; and it reached to Carmel westward, and to Shihor-libnath; 19:27and it turned toward the sunrising to Beth-dagon, and reached to Zebulun, and to the valley of Iphtah-el northward to Beth-emek and Neiel; and it went out to Cabul on the left hand, 19:28and Ebron, and Rehob, and Hammon, and Kanah, even unto great Sidon; 19:29and the border turned to Ramah, and to the fortified city of Tyre; and the border turned to Hosah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea by the region of Achzib; 19:30Ummah also, and Aphek, and Rehob: twenty and two cities with their villages. 19:31This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families, these cities with their villages.
19:32The sixth lot came out for the children of Naphtali, even for the children of Naphtali according to their families. 19:33And their border was from Heleph, from the oak in Zaanannim, and Adaminekeb, and Jabneel, unto Lakkum; and the goings out thereof were at the Jordan; 19:34and the border turned westward to Aznoth-tabor, and went out from thence to Hukkok; and it reached to Zebulun on the south, and reached to Asher on the west, and to Judah at the Jordan toward the sunrising. 19:35And the fortified cities were Ziddim, Zer, and Hammath, Rakkath, and Chinnereth, 19:36and Adamah, and Ramah, and Hazor, 19:37and Kedesh, and Edrei, and En-hazor, 19:38And Iron, and Migdal-el, Horem, and Beth-anath, and Beth-shemesh; nineteen cities with their villages. 19:39This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Naphtali according to their families, the cities with their villages.
19:40The seventh lot came out for the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families. 19:41And the border of their inheritance was Zorah, and Eshtaol, and Ir-shemesh, 19:42and Shaalabbin, and Aijalon, and Ithlah, 19:43and Elon, and Timnah, and Ekron, 19:44and Eltekeh, and Gibbethon, and Baalath, 19:45and Jehud, and Bene-berak, and Gath-rimmon, 19:46and Me-jarkon, and Rakkon, with the border over against Joppa. 19:47And the border of the children of Dan went out beyond them; for the children of Dan went up and fought against Leshem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and possessed it, and dwelt therein, and called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan their father. 19:48This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages.
19:49So they made an end of distributing the land for inheritance by the borders thereof; and the children of Israel gave an inheritance to Joshua the son of Nun in the midst of them: 19:50according to the commandment of Jehovah they gave him the city which he asked, even Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim; and he built the city, and dwelt therein.
19:51These are the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed for inheritance by lot in Shiloh before Jehovah, at the door of the tent of meeting. So they made an end of dividing the land.
149:1Praise ye Jehovah.
Sing unto Jehovah a new song,
And his praise in the assembly of the saints.
149:2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him:
Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
149:3Let them praise his name in the dance:
Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp.
149:4For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people:
He will beautify the meek with salvation.
149:5Let the saints exult in glory:
Let them sing for joy upon their beds.
149:6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
And a two-edged sword in their hand;
149:7To execute vengeance upon the nations,
And punishments upon the peoples;
149:8To bind their kings with chains,
And their nobles with fetters of iron;
149:9To execute upon them the judgment written:
This honor have all his saints.
Praise ye Jehovah.
150:1Praise ye Jehovah.
Praise God in his sanctuary:

150:4Praise him with timbrel and dance:
Praise him with stringed instruments and pipe.
150:5Praise him with loud cymbals:
Praise him with high sounding cymbals.
150:6Let everything that hath breath praise Jehovah.
Praise ye Jehovah.
9:1Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people! 9:2Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging-place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men. 9:3And they bend their tongue, as it were their bow, for falsehood; and they are grown strong in the land, but not for truth: for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith Jehovah. 9:4Take ye heed every one of his neighbor, and trust ye not in any brother; for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will go about with slanders. 9:5And they will deceive every one his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies; they weary themselves to commit iniquity. 9:6Thy habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith Jehovah. 9:7Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how else should I do, because of the daughter of my people? 9:8Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaketh deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he layeth wait for him. 9:9Shall I not visit them for these things? saith Jehovah; shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? 9:10For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the pastures of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none passeth through; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the birds of the heavens and the beasts are fled, they are gone. 9:11And I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling-place of jackals; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant. 9:12Who is the wise man, that may understand this? and who is he to whom the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken, that he may declare it? wherefore is the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that none passeth through? 9:13And Jehovah saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein, 9:14but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the Baalim, which their fathers taught them; 9:15therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink. 9:16I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them. 9:17Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, Consider ye, and call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for the skilful women, that they may come: 9:18and let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters. 9:19For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we ruined! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because they have cast down our dwellings. 9:20Yet hear the word of Jehovah, O ye women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth; and teach your daughters wailing, and every one her neighbor lamentation. 9:21For death is come up into our windows, it is entered into our palaces; to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets. 9:22Speak, Thus saith Jehovah, The dead bodies of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman; and none shall gather them. 9:23Thus saith Jehovah, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches; 9:24but let him that glorieth glory in this, that he hath understanding, and knoweth me, that I am Jehovah who exerciseth lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith Jehovah. 9:25Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will punish all them that are circumcised in their uncircumcision: 9:26Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the children of Ammon, and Moab, and all that have the corners of their hair cut off, that dwell in the wilderness; for all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart.
23:1Then spake Jesus to the multitudes and to his disciples, 23:2saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses seat: 23:3all things therefore whatsoever they bid you, these do and observe: but do not ye after their works; for they say, and do not. 23:4Yea, they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with their finger. 23:5But all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 23:6and love the chief place at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, 23:7and the salutations in the marketplaces, and to be called of men, Rabbi. 23:8But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your teacher, and all ye are brethren. 23:9And call no man your father on the earth: for one is your Father, even he who is in heaven. 23:10Neither be ye called masters: for one is your master, even the Christ. 23:11But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 23:12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.
23:13But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye shut the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye enter not in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering in to enter. 23:14Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, even while for a pretence ye make long prayers: therefore ye shall receive greater condemnation.
23:15Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he is become so, ye make him twofold more a son of hell than yourselves.
23:16Woe unto you, ye blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor. 23:17Ye fools and blind: for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that hath sanctified the gold? 23:18And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, he is a debtor. 23:19Ye blind: for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? 23:20He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. 23:21And he that sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. 23:22And he that sweareth by the heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
23:23Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law, justice, and mercy, and faith: but these ye ought to have done, and not to have left the other undone. 23:24Ye blind guides, that strain out the gnat, and swallow the camel!
23:25Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full from extortion and excess. 23:26Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup and of the platter, that the outside thereof may become clean also.
23:27Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 23:28Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inwardly ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
23:29Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and garnish the tombs of the righteous, 23:30and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 23:31Wherefore ye witness to yourselves, that ye are sons of them that slew the prophets. 23:32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 23:33Ye serpents, ye offspring of vipers, how shall ye escape the judgment of hell? 23:34Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city: 23:35that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous unto the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar. 23:36Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
23:37O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! 23:38Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 23:39For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Sit thou on my right hand,
Till I put thine enemies underneath thy feet?
22:45If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son? 22:46And no one was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
