Num 30:1 - 36:13 , Jeremiah 2:4 - 28, 3:4
Reader 1
Num 30:1 And Moshe spoke unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Yisra'el, saying, This is the thing which YHWH has commanded.
Num 30:2 If a man vow a vow unto YHWH, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.
Num 30:3 If a woman also vow a vow unto YHWH, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth;
Num 30:4 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she has bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she has bound her soul shall stand.
Num 30:5 But if her father disallow her in the day that he hears; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she has bound her soul, shall stand: and YHWH shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
Num 30:6 And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered anything out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;
Num 30:7 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.
Num 30:8 But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and YHWH shall forgive her.
Num 30:9 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.
Num 30:10 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath;
Num 30:11 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.
Num 30:12 But if her husband has utterly made them void on the day he heard them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband has made them void; and YHWH shall forgive her.
Reader 2
Num 30:13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
Num 30:14 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day; then he establishes all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he confirms them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.
Num 30:15 But if he shall any ways make them void after that he has heard them; then he shall bear her lawlessness.
Num 30:16 These are the statutes, which YHWH commanded Moshe, between a man and his wife, between the father and his daughter, being yet in her youth in her father's house.
Num 31:1 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe, saying,
Num 31:2 Avenge the children of Yisra'el of the Midyanim: afterward shall you be gathered unto your people.
Num 31:3 And Moshe spoke unto the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves unto the war, and let them go against the Midyanim, and avenge YHWH of Midyan.
Num 31:4 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Yisra'el, shall you send to the war.
Num 31:5 So there were delivered out of the thousands of Yisra'el, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
Num 31:6 And Moshe sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, them and Pinechas the son of El'azar the priest, to the war, with the holy instruments, and the shofars to blow in his hand.
Num 31:7 And they warred against the Midyanim, as YHWH commanded Moshe; and they slew all the males.
Num 31:8 And they slew the kings of Midyan, beside the rest of them that were slain; namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Tzur, and Chur, and Reva, five kings of Midyan: Bil'am also the son of Be'or they slew with the sword.
Num 31:9 And the children of Yisra'el took all the women of Midyan captives, and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods.
Num 31:10 And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
Num 31:11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
Num 31:12 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moshe, and El'azar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Yisra'el, unto the camp at the plains of Moav, which are by Yarden near Yericho.
Num 31:13 And Moshe, and El'azar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them outside the camp.
Num 31:14 And Moshe was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
Num 31:15 And Moshe said unto them, Have you saved all the women alive?
Num 31:16 Behold, these caused the children of Yisra'el, through the counsel of Bil'am, to commit trespass against YHWH in the matter of Pe'or, and there was a plague among the congregation of YHWH.
Num 31:17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that has known man by lying with him.
Num 31:18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
Num 31:19 And do you abide outside the camp seven days: whosoever has killed any person, and whosoever has touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
Num 31:20 And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood.
Num 31:21 And El'azar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which YHWH commanded Moshe;
Num 31:22 Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
Num 31:23 Every thing that may abide the fire, you shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean: nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation: and all that abides not the fire you shall make go through the water.
Num 31:24 And you shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean, and afterward you shall come into the camp.
Num 31:25 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe, saying,
Num 31:26 Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, you, and El'azar the priest, and the chief fathers of the congregation:
Num 31:27 And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation:
Num 31:28 And levy a tribute unto YHWH of the men of war which went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the oxen, and of the donkeys, and of the sheep:
Num 31:29 Take it of their half, and give it unto El'azar the priest, for an heave offering of YHWH.
Num 31:30 And of the children of Yisra'el's half, you shall take one portion of fifty, of the persons, of the oxen, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all manner of beasts, and give them unto the Levi'im, which keep the charge of the tabernacle of YHWH.
Num 31:31 And Moshe and El'azar the priest did as YHWH commanded Moshe.
Num 31:32 And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had caught, was six hundred thousand seventy thousand five thousand sheep,
Num 31:33 And seventy two thousand oxen,
Num 31:34 And sixty one thousand donkeys,
Num 31:35 And thirty two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
Num 31:36 And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep:
Num 31:37 And YHWH'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy five.
Num 31:38 And the oxen were thirty six thousand; of which YHWH'S tribute was seventy two.
Num 31:39 And the donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred; of which YHWH'S tribute was sixty one.
Num 31:40 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which YHWH'S tribute was thirty two persons.
Num 31:41 And Moshe gave the tribute, which was YHWH'S heave offering, unto El'azar the priest, as YHWH commanded Moshe.
Num 31:42 And of the children of Yisra'el's half, which Moshe divided from the men that warred,
Num 31:43 (Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
Num 31:44 And thirty and six thousand oxen,
Num 31:45 And thirty thousand donkeys and five hundred,
Num 31:46 And sixteen thousand persons;)
Num 31:47 Even of the children of Yisra'el's half, Moshe took one portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levi'im, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of YHWH; as YHWH commanded Moshe.
Num 31:48 And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moshe:
Num 31:49 And they said unto Moshe, Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war which are under our charge, and there lacks not one man of us.
Num 31:50 We have therefore brought an oblation for YHWH, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before YHWH.
Num 31:51 And Moshe and El'azar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
Num 31:52 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to YHWH, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
Num 31:53 (For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
Num 31:54 And Moshe and El'azar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the children of Yisra'el before YHWH.
Reader 3
Num 32:1 Now the children of Re'uven and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Ya'zer, and the land of Gil'ad, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle;
Num 32:2 The children of Gad and the children of Re'uven came and spoke unto Moshe, and to El'azar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, saying,
Num 32:3 Atrot, and Divon, and Ya'zer, and Nimrah, and Cheshbon, and El'aleh, and Sevam, and Nevo, and Be'on,
Num 32:4 The country which YHWH smote before the congregation of Yisra'el, is a land for cattle, and your servants have cattle:
Num 32:5 Wherefore, said they, if we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given unto your servants for a possession, and bring us not over Yarden.
Num 32:6 And Moshe said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Re'uven, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall you sit here?
Num 32:7 And wherefore discourage you the heart of the children of Yisra'el from going over into the land which YHWH has given them?
Num 32:8 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh'barnea to see the land.
Num 32:9 For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Yisra'el, that they should not go into the land which YHWH had given them.
Num 32:10 And YHWH'S anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,
Num 32:11 Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Avraham, unto Yitzchak, and unto Ya'akov; because they have not wholly followed me:
Num 32:12 Save Kalev the son of Yefunneh the Kenizzi, and Yahushua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed YHWH.
Num 32:13 And YHWH'S anger was kindled against Yisra'el, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the sight of YHWH, was consumed.
Num 32:14 And, behold, you are risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of YHWH toward Yisra'el.
Num 32:15 For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and you shall destroy all this people.
Num 32:16 And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:
Num 32:17 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Yisra'el, until we have brought them unto their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
Num 32:18 We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Yisra'el have inherited every man his inheritance.
Num 32:19 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Yarden, or forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side Yarden eastward.
Reader 4
Num 32:20 And Moshe said unto them, If you will do this thing, if you will go armed before YHWH to war,
Num 32:21 And will go all of you armed over Yarden before YHWH, until he has driven out his enemies from before him,
Num 32:22 And the land be subdued before YHWH: then afterward you shall return, and be guiltless before YHWH, and before Yisra'el; and this land shall be your possession before YHWH.
Num 32:23 But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against YHWH: and be sure your sin will find you out.
Num 32:24 Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth.
Num 32:25 And the children of Gad and the children of Re'uven spoke unto Moshe, saying, Your servants will do as my adon commands.
Num 32:26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gil'ad:
Num 32:27 But your servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before YHWH to battle, as my adon saith.
Num 32:28 So concerning them Moshe commanded El'azar the priest, and Yahushua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Yisra'el:
Num 32:29 And Moshe said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Re'uven will pass with you over Yarden, every man armed to battle, before YHWH, and the land shall be subdued before you; then you shall give them the land of Gil'ad for a possession:
Num 32:30 But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Kena'an.
Num 32:31 And the children of Gad and the children of Re'uven answered, saying, As YHWH has said unto your servants, so will we do.
Num 32:32 We will pass over armed before YHWH into the land of Kena'an, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Yarden may be ours.
Num 32:33 And Moshe gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Re'uven, and unto half the tribe of Manasheh the son of Yosef, the kingdom of Sichon king of the Amori, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.
Num 32:34 And the children of Gad built Divon, and Atrot, and Aroer,
Num 32:35 And Atrot-Shofan, and Ya'zer, and Yogbehah,
Num 32:36 And Beit-Nimrah, and Beit-Charan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep.
Num 32:37 And the children of Re'uven built Cheshbon, and El'aleh, and Kiryatayim,
Num 32:38 And Nevo, and Ba'al-me'on, (their names being changed,) and Sivmah: and gave other names unto the cities which they built.
Num 32:39 And the children of Machir the son of Manasheh went to Gil'ad, and took it, and dispossessed the Amori which was in it.
Num 32:40 And Moshe gave Gil'ad unto Machir the son of Manasheh; and he dwelt therein.
Num 32:41 And Ya'ir the son of Manasheh went and took the small towns thereof, and called them Chavot-Ya'ir.
Num 32:42 And Novach went and took Kenat, and the villages thereof, and called it Novach, after his own name.

Reader 5
Num 33:50 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe in the plains of Moav by Yarden near Yericho, saying,
Num 33:51 Speak unto the children of Yisra'el, and say unto them, When you are passed over Yarden into the land of Kena'an;
Num 33:52 Then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places:
Num 33:53 And you shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you the land to possess it.
Num 33:54 And you shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families: and to the more you shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer you shall give the less inheritance: every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his lot falls; according to the tribes of your fathers you shall inherit.
Num 33:55 But if you will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which you let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein you dwell.
Num 33:56 Moreover it shall come to pass, I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them.
Num 34:1 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe, saying,
Num 34:2 Command the children of Yisra'el, and say unto them, When you come into the land of Kena'an; (this is the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, the land of Kena'an with the coasts thereof:)
Num 34:3 Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Tzin along by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward:
Num 34:4 And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Tzin: and the going forth thereof shall be from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and shall go on to Chatzar-Addar, and pass on to Atzmon:
Num 34:5 And the border shall fetch a compass from Atzmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.
Num 34:6 And as for the western border, you shall even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border.
Num 34:7 And this shall be your north border: from the great sea you shall point out for you mount Hor:
Num 34:8 From mount Hor you shall point out your border unto the entrance of Chamat; and the goings forth of the border shall be to Tzedad:
Num 34:9 And the border shall go on to Zifron, and the goings out of it shall be at Chatzar-Enan: this shall be your north border.
Num 34:10 And you shall point out your east border from Chatzar-Enan to Shefam:

Num 34:15 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Yarden near Yericho eastward, toward the sunrising.

Num 35:1 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe in the plains of Moav by Yarden near Yericho, saying,
Num 35:2 Command the children of Yisra'el, that they give unto the Levi'im of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and you shall give also unto the Levi'im suburbs for the cities round about them.
Num 35:3 And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the suburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
Num 35:4 And the suburbs of the cities, which you shall give unto the Levi'im, from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.
Num 35:5 And you shall measure from without the city on the east side two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits; and the city shall be in the midst: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.
Num 35:6 And among the cities which you shall give unto the Levi'im there shall be six cities for refuge, which you shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee there: and to them you shall add forty and two cities.
Num 35:7 So all the cities which you shall give to the Levi'im shall be forty and eight cities: them with their suburbs.
Num 35:8 And the cities which you shall give of the possession of the children of Yisra'el: from many you shall give many; but from few you shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levi'im according to his inheritance which he inherits.
Reader 7
Num 35:9 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe, saying,
Num 35:10 Speak unto the children of Yisra'el, and say unto them, When you be come over Yarden into the land of Kena'an;
Num 35:11 Then you shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee there, which kills any person at unawares.
Num 35:12 And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.
Num 35:13 And of these cities which you shall give six cities shall you have for refuge.
Num 35:14 You shall give three cities on this side Yarden, and three cities shall you give in the land of Kena'an, which shall be cities of refuge.
Num 35:15 These six cities shall be a refuge, for the children of Yisra'el, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that kills any person unawares may flee there.
Num 35:16 And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Num 35:17 And if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Num 35:18 Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Num 35:19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meets him, he shall slay him.
Num 35:20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
Num 35:21 Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meets him.
Num 35:22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
Num 35:23 Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him, that he die, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
Num 35:24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
Num 35:25 And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, where he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
Num 35:26 But if the slayer shall at any time come outside the border of the city of his refuge, where he was fled;
Num 35:27 And the revenger of blood find him outside the borders of the city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
Num 35:28 Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his possession.
Num 35:29 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Num 35:30 Whoever kills any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die.
Num 35:31 Moreover you shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.
Num 35:32 And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
Num 35:33 So you shall not pollute the land wherein you are: for blood it defiles the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
Num 35:34 Defile not therefore the land which you shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I YHWH dwell among the children of Yisra'el.
Num 36:1 And the chief fathers of the families of the children of Gil'ad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasheh, of the families of the sons of Yosef, came near, and spoke before Moshe, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of Yisra'el:
Num 36:2 And they said, YHWH commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Yisra'el: and my lord was commanded by YHWH to give the inheritance of Tzelohchad our brother unto his daughters.
Num 36:3 And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Yisra'el, then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
Num 36:4 And when the jubilee of the children of Yisra'el shall be, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
Num 36:5 And Moshe commanded the children of Yisra'el according to the word of YHWH, saying, The tribe of the sons of Yosef has said well.
Num 36:6 This is the thing which YHWH does command concerning the daughters of Tzelohchad, saying, Let them marry to whom they think best; only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry.
Num 36:7 So shall not the inheritance of the children of Yisra'el remove from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of Yisra'el shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
Num 36:8 And every daughter, that possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Yisra'el, shall be wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Yisra'el may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.
Num 36:9 Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Yisra'el shall keep himself to his own inheritance.
Num 36:10 Even as YHWH commanded Moshe, so did the daughters of Tzelochhad:
Num 36:11 For Machlah, Tirtzah, and Choglah, and Milcah, and Noach, the daughters of Tzelohchad, were married unto their father's brothers' sons:
Num 36:12 And they were married into the families of the sons of Manasheh the son of Yosef, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
Num 36:13 These are the commandments and the judgments, which YHWH commanded by the hand of Moshe unto the children of Yisra'el in the plains of Moav by Yarden near Yericho.
