Settings

15:22Then Moses moved Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur. And they went three days in the wilderness and found no water. Compare
15:23And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; therefore its name was called Marah. Compare
15:24And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? Compare
15:25And he cried out to Jehovah, and Jehovah showed him a tree; and he cast it into the waters, and the waters became sweet. There He made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there He tested them. Compare
15:26And He said, If you will listen carefully to the voice of Jehovah your God and do what is right in His eyes and give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Jehovah who heals you. Compare
15:27And they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees; and they encamped there by the waters. Compare
16:1And they journeyed from Elim, and all the assembly of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departure out of the land of Egypt. Compare
16:2And the whole assembly of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness. Compare
16:3And the children of Israel said to them, If only we had died by the hand of Jehovah in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots, when we ate bread to the full; for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole congregation with hunger. Compare
16:4Then Jehovah said to Moses, I will now rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may test them, whether or not they will walk in My law. Compare
16:5And on the sixth day when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather daily. Compare
16:6So Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, In the evening you will know that Jehovah has brought you out from the land of Egypt; Compare
16:7And in the morning you will see the glory of Jehovah, for He hears your murmurings against Jehovah. And what are we, that you murmur against us? Compare
16:8And Moses said, This you will see when Jehovah gives you flesh to eat in the evening, and bread to the full in the morning; for Jehovah hears your murmurings which you murmur against Him. And what are we? Your murmurings are not against us but against Jehovah. Compare
16:9And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the assembly of the children of Israel, Come near before Jehovah, for He has heard your murmurings. Compare
16:10And as Aaron spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, they looked toward the wilderness, and there the glory of Jehovah appeared in the cloud. Compare
16:11And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, Compare
16:12I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, At twilight you will eat flesh, and in the morning you will be filled with bread; and you shall know that I am Jehovah your God. Compare
16:13And at evening quails came up and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. Compare
16:14And when the layer of dew lifted, there upon the surface of the wilderness were fine round flakes, fine as the frost on the earth. Compare
16:15And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, What is it? For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread which Jehovah has given you to eat. Compare
16:16This is what Jehovah has commanded, Gather of it, each one according to his eating; you shall take an omer a head, according to the number of your persons, each one for those who are in his tent. Compare
16:17And the children of Israel did so; and some gathered much, and some little. Compare
16:18And when they measured it with an omer, he who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no lack; each of them gathered according to his eating. Compare
16:19And Moses said to them, Let no man leave any of it until the morning. Compare
16:20But they did not listen to Moses, and some men left part of it until the morning; and it bred worms and stank. And Moses was indignant with them. Compare
16:21And they gathered it morning by morning, each one according to his eating; and when the sun became hot, it melted. Compare
16:22And on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one; and all the leaders of the assembly came and told Moses. Compare
16:23And he said to them, This is what Jehovah has spoken, Tomorrow is a Sabbath of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to Jehovah. Bake what you will bake, and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over put aside for yourselves to be kept until the morning. Compare
16:24And they put it aside until the morning, as Moses commanded; and it did not stink, nor was there any worm in it. Compare
16:25And Moses said, Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to Jehovah; today you will not find it in the field. Compare
16:26Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day is the Sabbath; on it there will be none. Compare
16:27And on the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, and they found none. Compare
16:28And Jehovah said to Moses, How long do you refuse to keep My commandments and My laws? Compare
16:29See, Jehovah has given you the Sabbath, therefore He gives you bread for two days on the sixth day. Let each of you stay in his place; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day. Compare
16:30So the people rested on the seventh day. Compare
16:31And the house of Israel called its name manna, and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers made with honey. Compare
16:32And Moses said, This is what Jehovah has commanded, Let an omerful of it be kept throughout your generations, that they may see the bread which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out from the land of Egypt. Compare
16:33And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omerful of manna in it, and place it before Jehovah, to be kept throughout your generations. Compare
16:34As Jehovah commanded Moses, so Aaron placed it before the Testimony to be kept. Compare
16:35And the children of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came to inhabitable land; they ate the manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan. Compare
16:36Now an omer is a tenth of an ephah. Compare
17:1And all the assembly of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin by their stages according to the command of Jehovah and encamped in Rephidim, and there was no water for the people to drink. Compare
17:2Therefore the people contended with Moses and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said to them, Why are you contending with me? Why do you test Jehovah? Compare
17:3So the people thirsted there for water, and the people murmured against Moses and said, For what reason did you bring us up out of Egypt; to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst? Compare
17:4So Moses cried out to Jehovah, saying, What shall I do with this people? A little more, and they will stone me. Compare
17:5And Jehovah said to Moses, Pass on before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel; and take in your hand your staff with which you struck the River, and go. Compare
17:6I will be standing before you there upon the rock in Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it so that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. Compare
17:7And he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah, because of the contention of the children of Israel and because they tested Jehovah, saying, Is Jehovah among us or not? Compare
17:8Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim. Compare
17:9And Moses said to Joshua, Choose men for us, and go out; fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand. Compare
17:10So Joshua did as Moses had said to him and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. Compare
17:11And when Moses lifted his hand up, Israel prevailed; and when he let his hand down, Amalek prevailed. Compare
17:12But Moses' hands were heavy, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it; and Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side and one on the other side. So his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. Compare
17:13And Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. Compare
17:14And Jehovah said to Moses, Write this as a memorial in a book and recite it to Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven. Compare
17:15And Moses built an altar and called the name of it Jehovah-nissi; Compare
17:16For he said, For there is a hand against the throne of Jah! Jehovah will have war with Amalek from generation to generation. Compare
18:1Now Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moses and for Israel His people, how Jehovah had brought Israel out of Egypt. Compare
18:2And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, had taken Moses' wife Zipporah, after he had sent her away, Compare
18:3And her two sons, of whom the name of one was Gershom, for Moses said, I have been a sojourner in a foreign land; Compare
18:4And the name of the other was Eliezer, for he said, The God of my father was my help and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh. Compare
18:5So Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness where he was encamped, at the mount of God. Compare
18:6And he sent word to Moses: I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with her. Compare
18:7So Moses went out to meet his father-in-law and bowed down and kissed him; and each asked the other's welfare, and they came into the tent. Compare
18:8And Moses told his father-in-law all that Jehovah had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, all the hardship that had come upon them on the way, and how Jehovah delivered them. Compare
18:9And Jethro rejoiced for all the good which Jehovah had done to Israel, in that He had delivered them out of the hand of the Egyptians. Compare
18:10And Jethro said, Blessed be Jehovah, who has delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of Pharaoh, who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians. Compare
18:11Now I know that Jehovah is greater than all gods, for it was demonstrated in this matter, when they dealt proudly against the people. Compare
18:12Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God, and Aaron came with all the elders of Israel to eat food with Moses' father-in-law before God. Compare
18:13And on the following day Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood around Moses from the morning to the evening. Compare
18:14And when Moses' father-in-law saw all that he was doing for the people, he said, What is this thing that you are doing for the people? Why do you sit by yourself, and all the people stand around you from morning to evening? Compare
18:15Then Moses said to his father-in-law, Because the people come to me to inquire of God. Compare
18:16When they have a dispute, the matter comes to me; and I judge between a man and his neighbor, and I make known the statutes of God and His laws. Compare
18:17And Moses' father-in-law said to him, The thing that you are doing is not good. Compare
18:18You will surely wear yourself out, both you and this people who are with you, for the thing is too heavy for you; you cannot do it by yourself. Compare
18:19Listen now to my voice: I will give you counsel, and God be with you. You stand for the people before God, and you bring the matters to God. Compare
18:20And you shall teach them the statutes and the laws, and make known to them the way in which they should walk and the work that they should do. Compare
18:21You also should look for able men among all the people who fear God, men of truth, who hate unjust gain; and place them over them, as leaders of thousands, leaders of hundreds, leaders of fifties, and leaders of tens. Compare
18:22And let them judge the people at all times; and let them bring every great matter to you, but every small matter let them judge themselves. So it will be easier for you, and they will bear the burden with you. Compare
18:23If you do this thing, and God so commands you, then you will be able to endure, and all these people also will go to their place in peace. Compare
18:24So Moses listened to the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said. Compare
18:25And Moses chose able men out of all Israel and made them heads over the people: leaders of thousands, leaders of hundreds, leaders of fifties, and leaders of tens. Compare
18:26And they judged the people at all times; the hard cases they brought to Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves. Compare
18:27And Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went his way to his own land. Compare
