Numbers 25:1–26:65

1And Israel sojourned in Sattin, and the people profaned itself by going a-whoring after the daughters of Moab. 2And they called them to the sacrifices of their idols; and the people ate of their sacrifices, and worshipped their idols. 3And Israel consecrated themselves to Beel-phegor; and the Lord was very angry with Israel. 4And the Lord said to Moses, Take all the princes of the people, and make them examples [of judgment] for the Lord in the face of the sun, and the anger of the Lord shall be turned away from Israel. 5And Moses said to the tribes of Israel, Slay ye every one his friend that is consecrated to Beel-phegor. 6And, behold, a man of the children of Israel came and brought his brother to a Madianitish woman before Moses, and before all the congregation of the children of Israel; and they were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of witness. 7And Phinees the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, and rose out of the midst of the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand, 8and went in after the Israelitish man into the chamber, and pierced them both through, both the Israelitish man, and the woman through her womb; and the plague was stayed from the children of Israel. 9And those that died in the plague were four and twenty thousand. 10And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 11Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest has caused my wrath to cease from the children of Israel, when I was exceedingly jealous among them, and I did not consume the children of Israel in my jealousy. 12Thus do thou say [to him], Behold, I give him a covenant of peace: 13and he and his seed after him shall have a perpetual covenant of priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel. 14Now the name of the smitten Israelitish man, who was smitten with the Madianitish woman, [was] Zambri son of Salmon, prince of a house of the tribe of Symeon. 15And the name of the Madianitish woman who was smitten, [was] Chasbi, daughter of Sur, a prince of the nation of Ommoth: it is a chief house among the people of Madiam. 16And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 17Plague the Madianites as enemies, and smite them, 18for they are enemies to you by the treachery wherein they ensnare you through Phogor, and through Chasbi their sister, daughter of a prince of Madiam, who was smitten in the day of the plague because of Phogor. Chapter 261And it came to pass after the plague, that the Lord spoke to Moses and Eleazar the priest, saying, 2Take the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, from twenty years old and upward, according to the houses of their lineage, every one that goes forth to battle in Israel. 3And Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke in Araboth of Moab at the Jordan by Jericho, saying, 4[This is the numbering] from twenty years old and upward as the Lord commanded Moses. And the sons of Israel that came out of Egypt [are as follows]: 5Ruben [was] the first-born of Israel: and the sons of Ruben, Enoch, and the family of Enoch; to Phallu belongs the family of the Phalluites. 6To Asron, the family of Asroni: to Charmi, the family of Charmi. 7These [are] the families of Ruben; and their numbering was forty-three thousand and seven hundred and thirty. 8And the sons of Phallu [were] Eliab,— 9and the sons of Eliab, Namuel, and Dathan, and Abiron: these [are] renowned men of the congregation; these are they that rose up against Moses and Aaron in the gathering of Core, in the rebellion against the Lord. 10And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up them and Core, when their assembly perished, when the fire devoured the two hundred and fifty, and they were made a sign. 11But the sons of Core died not. 12And the sons of Symeon:—the family of the sons of Symeon: to Namuel, [belonged] the family of the Namuelites; to Jamin the family of the Jaminites; to Jachin the family of the Jachinites. 13To Zara the family of the Zaraites; to Saul the family of the Saulites. 14These [are] the families of Symeon according to their numbering, two and twenty thousand and two hundred. 15And the sons of Juda, Er and Aunan; and Er and Aunan died in the land of Chanaan. 16And these were the sons of Juda, according to their families: to Selom [belonged] the family of the Selonites; to Phares, the family of the Pharesites; to Zara, the family of the Zaraites. 17And the sons of Phares were, to Asron, the family of the Asronites; to Jamun, the family of the Jamunites. 18These [are] the families of Juda according to their numbering, seventy-six thousand and five hundred. 19And the sons of Issachar according to their families: to Thola, the family of the Tholaites; to Phua, the family of the Phuaites. 20To Jasub, the family of the Jasubites; to Samram, the family of the Samramites. 21These [are] the families of Issachar according to their numbering, sixty-four thousand and four hundred. 22The sons of Zabulon according to their families: to Sared, the family of the Saredites; to Allon, the family of the Allonites; to Allel, the family of the Allelites. 23These [are] the families of Zabulon according to their numbering, sixty thousand and five hundred. 24The sons of Gad according to their families: to Saphon, the family of the Saphonites; to Angi, the family of the Angites; to Suni, the family of the Sunites; 25to Azeni, the family of the Azenites; to Addi, the family of the Addites: 26to Aroadi, the family of the Aroadites; to Ariel, the family of the Arielites. 27These [are] the families of the children of Gad according to their numbering, forty-four thousand and five hundred. 28The sons of Aser according to their families; to Jamin, the family of the Jaminites; to Jesu, the family of the Jesusites; to Baria, the family of the Bariaites. 29To Chober, the family of the Choberites; to Melchiel, the family of the Melchielites. 30And the name of the daughter of Aser, Sara. 31These [are] the families of Aser according to their numbering, forty-three thousand and four hundred. 32The sons of Joseph according to their families, Manasse and Ephraim. 33The sons of Manasse. To Machir the family of the Machirites; and Machir begot Galaad: to Galaad, the family of the Galaadites. 34And these [are] the sons of Galaad; to Achiezer, the family of the Achiezerites; to Cheleg, the family of the Chelegites. 35To Esriel, the family of the Esrielites; to Sychem, the family of the Sychemites. 36To Symaer, the family of the Symaerites; and to Opher, the family of the Opherites. 37And to Salpaad the son of Opher there were no sons, but daughters: and these [were] the names of the daughters of Salpaad; Mala, and Nua, and Egla, and Melcha, and Thersa. 38These [are] the families of Manasse according to their numbering, fifty-two thousand and seven hundred. 39And these [are] the children of Ephraim; to Suthala, the family of the Suthalanites; to Tanach, the family of the Tanachites. 40These [are] the sons of Suthala; to Eden, the family of the Edenites. 41These [are] the families of Ephraim according to their numbering, thirty-two thousand and five hundred: these [are] the families of the children of Joseph according to their families. 42The sons of Benjamin according to their families; to Bale, the family of the Balites; to Asyber, the family of the Asyberites; to Jachiran, the family of the Jachiranites. 43To Sophan, the family of the Sophanites. 44And the sons of Bale were Adar and Noeman; to Adar, the family of the Adarites; and to Noeman, the family of the Noemanites. 45These [are] the sons of Benjamin by their families according to their numbering, thirty-five thousand and five hundred. 46And the sons of Dan according to their families; to Same, the family of the Sameites; these [are] the families of Dan according to their families. 47All the families of Samei according to their numbering, sixty-four thousand and four hundred. 48The sons of Nephthali according to their families; to Asiel, the family of the Asielites; to Gauni, the family of the Gaunites. 49To Jeser, the family of the Jeserites; to Sellem, the family of the Sellemites. 50These [are] the families of Nephthali, according to their numbering, forty thousand and three hundred. 51This [is] the numbering of the children of Israel, six hundred and one thousand and seven hundred and thirty. 52And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 53To these the land shall be divided, so that they may inherit according to the number of the names. 54To the greater number thou shalt give the greater inheritance, and to the less number thou shalt give the less inheritance: to each one, as they have been numbered, shall their inheritance be given. 55The land shall be divided to the names by lot, they shall inherit according to the tribes of their families. 56Thou shalt divide their inheritance by lot between the many and the few. 57And the sons of Levi according to their families; to Gedson, the family of the Gedsonites; to Caath, the family of the Caathites; to Merari, the family of the Merarites. 58These [are] the families of the sons of Levi; the family of the Lobenites, the family of the Chebronites, the family of the Coreites, and the family of the Musites; and Caath begot Amram. 59And the name of his wife [was] Jochabed, daughter of Levi, who bore these to Levi in Egypt, and she bore to Amram, Aaron and Moses, and Mariam their sister. 60And to Aaron were born both Nadab and Abiud, and Eleazar, and Ithamar. 61And Nadab and Abiud died when they offered strange fire before the Lord in the wilderness of Sina. 62And there were according to their numbering, twenty-three thousand, every male from a month old and upward; for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because they have no inheritance in the midst of the children of Israel. 63And this [is] the numbering of Moses and Eleazar the priest, who numbered the children of Israel in Araboth of Moab, at Jordan by Jericho. 64And among these there was not a man numbered by Moses and Aaron, whom, [even] the children of Israel, they numbered in the wilderness of Sinai. 65For the Lord said to them, They shall surely die in the wilderness; and there was not left even one of them, except Chaleb the son of Jephonne, and Joshua the [son] of Naue.

Psalm 33:1–7(MT: 34)

MT Psalm 34 = LXX Psalm 33 (standard offset).

1[A Psalm] of David, when he changed his countenance before Abimelech; and he let him go, and he departed. 2I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall be continually in my mouth. 3My soul shall boast herself in the Lord: let the meek hear, and rejoice. 4Magnify ye the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. 5I sought the Lord diligently, and he hearkened to me, and delivered me from all my sojournings. 6Draw near to him, and be enlightened: and your faces shall not [by any means] be ashamed. 7This poor man cried, and the Lord hearkened to him, and delivered him out of all his afflictions.
ProverbSeptuagint (Brenton)

Proverbs 11:28

28He that trusts in wealth shall fall; but he that helps righteous men shall rise.
New TestamentKing James Version

Mark 13:21–37

21And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not: 22For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. 23But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. 24But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. 26And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 27And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. 28Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: 29So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors. 30Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done. 31Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 32But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
