Exodus 39:1–40:38

1All the gold that was employed for the works according to all the fabrication of the holy things, was of the gold of the offerings, twenty-nine talents, and seven hundred and twenty shekels according to the holy shekel. 2And the offering of silver from the men that were numbered of the congregation a hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels, one drachm apiece, even the half shekel, according to the holy shekel. 3Every one that passed the survey from twenty years old and upwards to the [number of] six hundred thousand, and three thousand five hundred and fifty. 4And the hundred talents of silver went to the casting of the hundred chapiters of the tabernacle, and to the chapiters of the veil; 5a hundred chapiters to the hundred talents, a talent to a chapiter. 6And the thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels he formed into hooks for the pillars, and he gilt their chapiters and adorned them. 7And the brass of the offering [was] seventy talents, and a thousand five hundred shekels; 8and they made of it the bases of the door of the tabernacle of witness, 9and the bases of the court round about, and the bases of the gate of the court, and the pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court round about; 10and the brazen appendage of the altar, and all the vessels of the altar, and all the instruments of the tabernacle of witness. 11And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses, so did they. 12And of the gold that remained of the offering they made vessels to minister with before the Lord. 13And the blue that was left, and the purple, and the scarlet they made [into] garments of ministry for Aaron, so that he should minister with them in the sanctuary; 14and they brought the garments to Moses, and the tabernacle, and its furniture, its bases and its bars and the posts; 15and the ark of the covenant, and its bearers, and the altar and all its furniture. 16And they made the anointing oil, and the incense of composition, and the pure candlestick, 17and its lamps, lamps for burning, and oil for the light, 18and the table of shewbread, and all its furniture, and the shewbread upon it, 19and the garments of the sanctuary which belong to Aaron, and the garments of his sons, for the priestly ministry; 20and the curtains of the court, and the posts, and the veil of the door of the tabernacle, and the gate of the court, 21and all the vessels of the tabernacle and all its instruments: and the skins, even rams' skins dyed red, and the blue coverings, and the coverings of the other things, and the pins, and all the instruments for the works of the tabernacle of witness. 22Whatsoever things the Lord appointed Moses, so did the children of Israel make all the furniture. 23And Moses saw all the works; and they had done them all as the Lord commanded Moses, so had they made them; and Moses blessed them. Chapter 401And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2On the first day of the first month, at the new moon, thou shalt set up the tabernacle of witness, 3and thou shalt place [in it] the ark of the testimony, and shalt cover the ark with the veil, 4and thou shalt bring in the table and shalt set forth that which is to be set forth on it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick and place its lamps on it. 5And thou shalt place the golden altar, to burn incense before the ark; and thou shalt put a covering of a veil on the door of the tabernacle of witness. 6And thou shalt put the altar of burnt-offerings by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, 8and thou shalt set up the tabernacle round about, and thou shalt hallow all that belongs to it round about. 9And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and shalt anoint the tabernacle, and all things in it; and shalt sanctify it, and all its furniture, and it shall be holy. 10And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offerings, and all its furniture; and thou shalt hallow the altar, and the altar shall be most holy. 12And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and thou shalt wash them with water. 13And thou shalt put on Aaron the holy garments, and thou shalt anoint him, and thou shalt sanctify him, and he shall minister to me as priest. 14And thou shalt bring up his sons, and shalt put garments on them. 15And thou shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall minister to me as priests; and it shall be that they shall have an everlasting anointing of priesthood, throughout their generations. 16And Moses did all things whatsoever the Lord commanded him, so did he. 17And it came to pass in the first month, in the second year after their going forth out of Egypt, at the new moon, that the tabernacle was set up. 18And Moses set up the tabernacle, and put on the chapiters, and put the bars into their places, and set up the posts. 19And he stretched out the curtains over the tabernacle, and put the veil of the tabernacle on it above as the Lord commanded Moses. 20And he took the testimonies, and put them into the ark; and he put the staves by the sides of the ark. 21And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and put on [it] the covering of the veil, and covered the ark of the testimony, as the Lord commanded Moses. 22And he put the table in the tabernacle of witness, on the north side without the veil of the tabernacle. 23And he put on it the shewbread before the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses. 24And he put the candlestick into the tabernacle of witness, on the side of the tabernacle toward the south. 25And he put on it its lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 26And he put the golden altar in the tabernacle of witness before the veil; 27and he burnt on it incense of composition, as the Lord commanded Moses. 29And he put the altar of the burnt-offerings by the doors of the tabernacle. 33And he set up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar; and Moses accomplished all the works. 34And the cloud covered the tabernacle of witness, and the tabernacle was filled with the glory of the Lord. 35And Moses was not able to enter into the tabernacle of testimony, because the cloud overshadowed it, and the tabernacle was filled with the glory of the Lord. 36And when the cloud went up from the tabernacle, the children of Israel prepared to depart with their baggage. 37And if the cloud went not up, they did not prepare to depart, till the day when the cloud went up. 38For a cloud was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night before all Israel, in all their journeyings.

Proverbs 8:22–31

22The Lord made me the beginning of his ways for his works. 23He established me before time [was] in the beginning, before he made the earth: 24even before he made the depths; before the fountains of water came forth: 25before the mountains were settled, and before all hills, he begets me. 26The Lord made countries and uninhabited [tracts], and the highest inhabited parts of the world. 27When he prepared the heaven, I was present with him; and when he prepared his throne upon the winds: 28and when he strengthened the clouds above; and when he secured the fountains of the earth: 29and when he strengthened the foundations of the earth: 30I was by him, suiting [myself to him], I was that wherein he took delight; and daily I rejoiced in his presence continually. 31For he rejoiced when he had completed the world, and rejoiced among the children of men.

Matthew 27:1–26

1When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death: 2And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor. 3Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. 5And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself. 6And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood. 7And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in. 8Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day. 9Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value; 10And gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord appointed me. 11And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest. 12And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. 13Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? 14And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly. 15Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would. 16And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas. 17Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ? 18For he knew that for envy they had delivered him. 19When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him. 20But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. 21The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas. 22Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified. 23And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. 24When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it. 25Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. 26Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
