Genesis 35:1–36:43
1And God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to the place, Bæthel, and dwell there; and make there an altar to the God that appeared to thee, when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother. 2And Jacob said to his house, and to all that were with him, Remove the strange gods that are with you from the midst of you, and purify yourselves, and change your clothes. 3And let us rise and go up to Bæthel, and let us there make an altar to God who hearkened to me in the day of calamity, who was with me, and preserved me throughout in the journey, by which I went. 4And they gave to Jacob the strange gods, which were in their hands, and the ear-rings which were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the turpentine tree which is in Secima, and destroyed them to this day. 5So Israel departed from Secima, and the fear of God was upon the cities round about them, and they did not pursue after the children of Israel. 6And Jacob came to Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan, which is Bæthel, he and all the people that were with him. 7And he built there an altar, and called the name of the place Bæthel; for there God appeared to him, when he fled from the face of his brother Esau. 8And Deborrha, Rebecca's nurse, died, and was buried below Bæthel under the oak; and Jacob called its name, The Oak of Mourning. 9And God appeared to Jacob once more in Luza, when he came out of Mesopotamia of Syria, and God blessed him. 10And God said to him, Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name; and he called his name Israel. 11And God said to him, I am thy God; increase and multiply; for nations and gatherings of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins. 12And the land which I gave to Abraam and Isaac, I have given it to thee; and it shall come to pass that I will give this land also to thy seed after thee. 13And God went up from him from the place where he spoke with him. 14And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God spoke with him, [even] a pillar of stone; and offered a libation upon it, and poured oil upon it. 15And Jacob called the name of the place in which God spoke with him, Bæthel. 16[And Jacob removed from Bæthel, and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Gader,] and it came to pass when he drew nigh to Chabratha, to enter into Ephratha, Rachel travailed; and in her travail she was in hard labour. 17And it came to pass in her hard labour, that the midwife said to her, Be of good courage, for thou shalt also have this son. 18And it came to pass in her giving up the ghost (for she was dying), that she called his name, The son of my pain; but his father called his name Benjamin. 19So Rachel died, and was buried in the way of the course of Ephratha, this is Bethleem. 20And Jacob set up a pillar on her tomb; this is the pillar on the tomb of Rachel, until this day. 22And it came to pass when Israel dwelt in that land, that Ruben went and lay with Balla, the concubine of his father Jacob; and Israel heard, and the thing appeared grievous before him. And the sons of Jacob were twelve. 23The sons of Lea, the first-born of Jacob; Ruben, Symeon, Levi, Judas, Issachar, Zabulon. 24And the sons of Rachel; Joseph and Benjamin. 25And the sons of Balla, the hand-maid of Rachel; Dan and Nephthalim. 26And the sons of Zelpha, the hand-maid of Lea; Gad and Aser. These [are] the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Mesopotamia of Syria. 27And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mambre, to a city of the plain; this is Chebron in the land of Chanaan, where Abraam and Isaac sojourned. 28And the days of Isaac which he lived were an hundred and eighty years. 29And Isaac gave up the ghost and died, and was laid to his family, old and full of days; and Esau and Jacob his sons buried him. Chapter 361And these [are] the generations of Esau; this is Edom. 2And Esau took to himself wives of the daughters of the Chananites; Ada, the daughter of Ælom the Chettite; and Olibema, daughter of Ana the son of Sebegon, the Evite; 3and Basemath, daughter of Ismael, sister of Nabaioth. 4And Ada bore to him Eliphas; and Basemath bore Raguel. 5And Olibema bore Jeus, and Jeglom, and Core; these [are] the sons of Esau, which were born to him in the land of Chanaan. 6And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and all his possessions, and all his cattle, and all that he had got, and all things whatsoever he had acquired in the land of Chanaan; and Esau went forth from the land of Chanaan, from the face of his brother Jacob. 7For their substance was too great for them to dwell together; and the land of their sojourning could not bear them, because of the abundance of their possessions. 8And Esau dwelt in mount Seir; Esau, he is Edom. 9And these [are] the generations of Esau, the father of Edom in the mount Seir. 10And these [are] the names of the sons of Esau. Eliphas, the son of Ada, the wife of Esau; and Raguel, the son of Basemath, wife of Esau. 11And the sons of Eliphas were Thæman, Omar, Sophar, Gothom, and Kenez. 12And Thamna was a concubine of Eliphaz, the son of Esau; and she bore Amalec to Eliphas. These [are] the sons of Ada, the wife of Esau. 13And these [are] the sons of Raguel; Nachoth, Zare, Some, and Moze. These were the sons of Basemath, wife of Esau. 14And these [are] the sons of Olibema, the daughter of Ana, the son of Sebegon, the wife of Esau; and she bore to Esau, Jeus, and Jeglom, and Core. 15These [are] the chiefs of the son of Esau, [even] the sons of Eliphas, the first-born of Esau; chief Thæman, chief Omar, chief Sophar, chief Kenez, 16chief Core, chief Gothom, chief Amalec. These [are] the chiefs of Eliphas, in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Ada. 17And these [are] the sons of Raguel, the son of Esau; chief Nachoth, chief Zare, chief Some, chief Moze. These [are] the chiefs of Raguel, in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemath, wife of Esau. 18And these [are] the sons of Olibema, wife of Esau; chief Jeus, chief Jeglom, chief Core. These [are] the chiefs of Olibema, daughter of Ana, wife of Esau. 19These [are] the sons of Esau, and these are the chiefs; these are the sons of Edom. 20And these [are] the sons of Seir, the Chorrhite, who inhabited the land; Lotan, Sobal, Sebegon, Ana, 21and Deson, and Asar, and Rison. These [are] the chiefs of the Chorrhite, the son of Seir, in the land of Edom. 22And the sons of Lotan [were] Chorrhi and Hæman; and the sister of Lotan, Thamna. 23And these [are] the sons of Sobal; Golam, and Manachath, and Gæbel, and Sophar, and Omar. 24And these [are] the sons of Sebegon; Aïe, and Ana; this is the Ana who found Jamin in the wilderness, when he tended the beasts of his father Sebegon. 25And these [are] the sons of Ana; Deson—and Olibema [was] daughter of Ana. 26And these [are] the sons of Deson; Amada, and Asban, and Ithran, and Charrhan. 27And these [are] the sons of Asar; Balaam, and Zucam, and Jucam. 28And these [are] the sons of Rison; Hos, and Aran. 29And these [are] the chiefs of Chorri; chief Lotan, chief Sobal, chief Sebegon, chief Ana, 30chief Deson, chief Asar, chief Rison. These [are] the chiefs of Chorri, in their principalities in the land of Edom. 31And these [are] the kings which reigned in Edom, before a king reigned in Israel. 32And Balac, son of Beor, reigned in Edom; and the name of his city [was] Dennaba. 33And Balac died; and Jobab, son of Zara, from Bosorrha reigned in his stead. 34And Jobab died; and Asom, from the land of the Thæmanites, reigned in his stead. 35And Asom died; and Adad son of Barad, who cut off Madiam in the plain of Moab, ruled in his stead; and the name of his city was Getthaim. 36And Adad died; and Samada of Massecca reigned in his stead. 37And Samada died; and Saul of Rhoöboth by the river reigned in his stead. 38And Saul died; and Ballenon the son of Achobor reigned in his stead. 39And Ballenon the son of Achobor died; and Arad the son of Barad reigned in his stead; and the name of his city was Phogor; and the name of his wife was Metebeel, daughter of Matraith, son of Maizoöb. 40These [are] the names of the chiefs of Esau, in their tribes, according to their place, in their countries, and in their nations; chief Thamna, chief Gola, chief Jether, 41chief Olibema, chief Helas, chief Phinon, 42chief Kenez, chief Thæman, chief Mazar, 43chief Magediel, chief Zaphoin. These are the chiefs of Edom in their dwelling-places, in the land of their possession; this is Esau, the father of Edom.
PsalmSeptuagint (Brenton)
Psalm 9:6–10(MT: 9)
MT Psalm 9 corresponds to LXX Psalm 9 (first half). MT Psalm 10 is the second half of LXX Psalm 9.
6Thou hast rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished; thou hast blotted out their name for ever, even for ever and ever. 7The swords of the enemy have failed utterly; and thou hast destroyed cities: their memorial has been destroyed with a noise, 8but the Lord endures for ever: he has prepared his throne for judgment. 9And he will judge the world in righteousness, he will judge the nations in uprightness. 10The Lord also is become a refuge for the poor, a seasonable help, in affliction.
ProverbSeptuagint (Brenton)
Proverbs 3:27–30
27Forbear not to do good to the poor, whensoever thy hand may have [power] to help [him]. 28Say not, Come back another time, to-morrow I will give; while thou art able to do [him] good: for thou knowest not what the next day will bring forth. 29Devise not evil against thy friend, living near thee and trusting in thee. 30Be not ready to quarrel with a man without a cause, lest he do thee some harm.
New TestamentKing James Version
Matthew 12:22–50
22Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw. 23And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David? 24But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. 25And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: 26And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? 27And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges. 28But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. 29Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house. 30He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. 31Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. 32And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. 33Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. 34O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. 36But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. 38Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee. 39But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: 40For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here. 42The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here. 43When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. 44Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. 45Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. 46While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. 47Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. 48But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? 49And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! 50For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
