`At that time hath Jehovah said unto me – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `At that time hath Jehovah said unto me, Grave for thee two tables of stone, like the first, and come up unto Me, into the mount, and thou hast made for thee an ark of wood,

²and I write on the tables the words which were on the first tables, which thou hast broken, and thou hast placed them in the ark;

³and I make an ark of shittim wood, and grave two tables of stone like the first, and go up to the mount, and the two tables in my hand.

^{4 `And He writeth on the tables, according to the first writing, the Ten Matters, which Jehovah hath spoken unto you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly, and Jehovah giveth them unto me,}

⁵and I turn and come down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made, and they are there, as Jehovah commanded me.

⁶`And the sons of Israel have journeyed from Beeroth of the sons of Jaakan to Mosera, there Aaron died, and he is buried there, and Eleazar his son doth act as priest in his stead;

⁷thence they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.

^{8 `At that time hath Jehovah separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah, to serve Him, and to bless in His name, unto this day,}

⁹therefore there hath not been to Levi a portion and inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah Himself [is] his inheritance, as Jehovah thy God hath spoken to him.

^{10 `And I — I have stood in the mount, as the former days, forty days and forty nights, and Jehovah hearkeneth unto me also at that time; Jehovah hath not willed to destroy thee.}

¹¹`And Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go to journey before the people, and they go in and possess the land which I have sworn to their fathers to give to them.

^{12 `And now, Israel, what is Jehovah thy God asking from thee, except to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,}

^{13 to keep the commands of Jehovah, and His statutes which I am commanding thee to-day, for good to thee?}

^{14 `Lo, to Jehovah thy God [are] the heavens and the heavens of the heavens, the earth and all that [is] in it;}

^{15 only in thy fathers hath Jehovah delighted — to love them, and He doth fix on their seed after them — on you, out of all the peoples as [at] this day;}

¹⁶and ye have circumcised the foreskin of your heart, and your neck ye do not harden any more;

¹⁷for Jehovah your God — He [is] God of the gods, and Lord of the lords; God, the great, the mighty, and the fearful; who accepteth not persons, nor taketh a bribe;

¹⁸He is doing the judgment of fatherless and widow, and loving the sojourner, to give to him bread and raiment.

¹⁹`And ye have loved the sojourner, for sojourners ye were in the land of Egypt.

^{20 `Jehovah thy God thou dost fear, Him thou dost serve, and to Him thou dost cleave, and by His name thou dost swear.}

²¹He [is] thy praise, and He [is] thy God, who hath done with thee these great and fearful [things] which thine eyes have seen:

^{22 with seventy persons did thy fathers go down to Egypt, and now hath Jehovah thy God made thee as stars of the heavens for multitude. – Aslan International Ministry}

Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 12 Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where was Lazarus, who had died, whom he raised out of the dead;

²they made, therefore, to him a supper there, and Martha was ministering, and Lazarus was one of those reclining together (at meat) with him;

³Mary, therefore, having taken a pound of ointment of spikenard, of great price, anointed the feet of Jesus and did wipe with her hair his feet, and the house was filled from the fragrance of the ointment.

⁴Therefore saith one of his disciples — Judas Iscariot, of Simon, who is about to deliver him up —

⁵`Wherefore was not this ointment sold for three hundred denaries, and given to the poor?’

⁶and he said this, not because he was caring for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and what things were put in he was carrying.

^{7 Jesus, therefore, said, `Suffer her; for the day of my embalming she hath kept it,}

⁸for the poor ye have always with yourselves, and me ye have not always.’

⁹A great multitude, therefore, of the Jews knew that he is there, and they came, not because of Jesus only, but that Lazarus also they may see, whom he raised out of the dead;

¹⁰and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,

¹¹because on account of him many of the Jews were going away, and were believing in Jesus.

¹²On the morrow, a great multitude that came to the feast, having heard that Jesus doth come to Jerusalem,

¹³took the branches of the palms, and went forth to meet him, and were crying, `Hosanna, blessed [is] he who is coming in the name of the Lord — the king of Israel;’

¹⁴and Jesus having found a young ass did sit upon it, according as it is written,

¹⁵`Fear not, daughter of Sion, lo, thy king doth come, sitting on an ass’ colt.’

^{16 And these things his disciples did not know at the first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were having been written about him, and these things they did to him.}

¹⁷The multitude, therefore, who are with him, were testifying that he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and did raise him out of the dead;

¹⁸because of this also did the multitude meet him, because they heard of his having done this sign,

¹⁹the Pharisees, therefore, said among themselves, `Ye see that ye do not gain anything, lo, the world did go after him.’

²⁰And there were certain Greeks out of those coming up that they may worship in the feast,

²¹these then came near to Philip, who [is] from Bethsaida of Galilee, and were asking him, saying, `Sir, we wish to see Jesus;’

²²Philip cometh and telleth Andrew, and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

^{23 And Jesus responded to them, saying, `The hour hath come that the Son of Man may be glorified;}

²⁴verily, verily, I say to you, if the grain of the wheat, having fallen to the earth, may not die, itself remaineth alone; and if it may die, it doth bear much fruit;

²⁵he who is loving his life shall lose it, and he who is hating his life in this world — to life age-during shall keep it;

²⁶if any one may minister to me, let him follow me, and where I am, there also my ministrant shall be; and if any one may minister to me — honour him will the Father.

²⁷`Now hath my soul been troubled, and what? shall I say — Father, save me from this hour? — but because of this I came to this hour;

²⁸Father, glorify Thy name.’ There came, therefore, a voice out of the heaven, `I both glorified, and again I will glorify [it];’

²⁹the multitude, therefore, having stood and heard, were saying that there hath been thunder; others said, `A messenger hath spoken to him.’

³⁰Jesus answered and said, `Not because of me hath this voice come, but because of you;

³¹now is a judgment of this world, now shall the ruler of this world be cast forth;

³²and I, if I may be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto myself.’

³³And this he said signifying by what death he was about to die;

^{34 the multitude answered him, `We heard out of the law that the Christ doth remain — to the age; and how dost thou say, That it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up? who is this — the Son of Man?’}

³⁵Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Yet a little time is the light with you; walk while ye have the light, that darkness may not overtake you; and he who is walking in the darkness hath not known where he goeth;

^{36 while ye have the light, believe in the light, that sons of light ye may become.’ These things spake Jesus, and having gone away, he was hid from them,}

³⁷yet he having done so many signs before them, they were not believing in him,

^{38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said, `Lord, who gave credence to our report? and the arm of the Lord — to whom was it revealed?’}

³⁹Because of this they were not able to believe, that again Isaiah said,

⁴⁰`He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I might heal them;’

⁴¹these things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

⁴²Still, however, also out of the rulers did many believe in him, but because of the Pharisees they were not confessing, that they might not be put out of the synagogue,

⁴³for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.

⁴⁴And Jesus cried and said, `He who is believing in me, doth not believe in me, but in Him who sent me;

⁴⁵and he who is beholding me, doth behold Him who sent me;

⁴⁶I a light to the world have come, that every one who is believing in me — in the darkness may not remain;

^{47 and if any one may hear my sayings, and not believe, I — I do not judge him, for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.}

^{48 `He who is rejecting me, and not receiving my sayings, hath one who is judging him, the word that I spake, that will judge him in the last day,}

⁴⁹because I spake not from myself, but the Father who sent me, He did give me a command, what I may say, and what I may speak,

^{50 and I have known that His command is life age-during; what, therefore, I speak, according as the Father hath said to me, so I speak.’ – Aslan International Ministry}

And it hath been, if thou dost hearken diligently – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `And it hath been, if thou dost hearken diligently to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to observe to do all His commands which I am commanding thee to-day, that Jehovah thy God hath made thee uppermost above all the nations of the earth,

^{2 and all these blessings have come upon thee, and overtaken thee, because thou dost hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God:}

³`Blessed [art] thou in the city, and blessed [art] thou in the field.

⁴`Blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, increase of thine oxen, and wealth of thy flock.

⁵`Blessed [is] thy basket and thy kneading-trough.

⁶`Blessed [art] thou in thy coming in, and blessed [art] thou in thy going out.

^{7 `Jehovah giveth thine enemies, who are rising up against thee — smitten before thy face; in one way they come out unto thee, and in seven ways they flee before thee.}

^{8 `Jehovah commandeth with thee the blessing in thy storehouses, and in every putting forth of thy hand, and hath blessed thee in the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.}

⁹`Jehovah doth establish thee to Himself for a holy people, as He hath sworn to thee, when thou keepest the commands of Jehovah thy God, and hast walked in His ways;

¹⁰and all the peoples of the land have seen that the name of Jehovah is called upon thee, and they have been afraid of thee.

^{11 `And Jehovah hath made thee abundant in good, in the fruit of the womb, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to thy fathers to give to thee.}

^{12 `Jehovah doth open to thee his good treasure — the heavens — to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless all the work of thy hand, and thou hast lent to many nations, and thou — thou dost not borrow.}

^{13 `And Jehovah hath given thee for head, and not for tail; and thou hast been only above, and art not beneath, for thou dost hearken unto the commands of Jehovah thy God, which I am commanding thee to-day, to keep and to do,}

¹⁴and thou dost not turn aside from all the words which I am commanding you to-day — right or left — to go after other gods, to serve them.

^{15 `And it hath been, if thou dost not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God to observe to do all His commands, and His statutes, which I am commanding thee to-day, that all these revilings have come upon thee, and overtaken thee:}

¹⁶`Cursed [art] thou in the city, and cursed [art] thou in the field.

¹⁷`Cursed [is] thy basket and thy kneading-trough.

¹⁸`Cursed [is] the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, increase of thine oxen, and wealth of thy flock.

¹⁹`Cursed [art] thou in thy coming in, and cursed [art] thou in thy going out.

^{20 `Jehovah doth send on thee the curse, the trouble, and the rebuke, in every putting forth of thy hand which thou dost, till thou art destroyed, and till thou perish hastily, because of the evil of thy doings [by] which thou hast forsaken Me.}

²¹`Jehovah doth cause to cleave to thee the pestilence, till He consume thee from off the ground whither thou art going in to possess it.

²²`Jehovah doth smite thee with consumption, and with fever, and with inflammation, and with extreme burning, and with sword, and with blasting, and with mildew, and they have pursued thee till thou perish

²³`And thy heavens which [are] over thy head have been brass, and the earth which [is] under thee iron;

²⁴Jehovah giveth the rain of thy land — dust and ashes; from the heavens it cometh down on thee till thou art destroyed.

²⁵`Jehovah giveth thee smitten before thine enemies; in one way thou goest out unto them, and in seven ways dost flee before them, and thou hast been for a trembling to all kingdoms of the earth;

²⁶and thy carcase hath been for food to every fowl of the heavens, and to the beast of the earth, and there is none causing trembling.

²⁷`Jehovah doth smite thee with the ulcer of Egypt, and with emerods, and with scurvy, and with itch, of which thou art not able to be healed.

²⁸`Jehovah doth smite thee with madness, and with blindness, and with astonishment of heart;

^{29 and thou hast been gropling at noon, as the blind gropeth in darkness; and thou dost not cause thy ways to prosper; and thou hast been only oppressed and plundered all the days, and there is no saviour.}

^{30 `A woman thou dost betroth, and another man doth lie with her; a house thou dost build, and dost not dwell in it; a vineyard thou dost plant, and dost not make it common;}

³¹thine ox [is] slaughtered before thine eyes, and thou dost not eat of it; thine ass [is] taken violently away from before thee, and it is not given back to thee; thy sheep [are] given to thine enemies, and there is no saviour for thee.

^{32 `Thy sons and thy daughters [are] given to another people, and thine eyes are looking and consuming for them all the day, and thy hand is not to God!}

³³The fruit of thy ground, and all thy labour, eat up doth a people whom thou hast not known; and thou hast been only oppressed and bruised all the days;

³⁴and thou hast been mad, because of the sight of thine eyes which thou dost see.

³⁵`Jehovah doth smite thee with an evil ulcer, on the knees, and on the legs (of which thou art not able to be healed), from the sole of thy foot even unto thy crown.

³⁶`Jehovah doth cause thee to go, and thy king whom thou raisest up over thee, unto a nation which thou hast not known, thou and thy fathers, and thou hast served there other gods, wood and stone;

³⁷and thou hast been for an astonishment, for a simile, and for a byword among all the peoples whither Jehovah doth lead thee.

^{38 `Much seed thou dost take out into the field, and little thou dost gather in, for the locust doth consume it;}

³⁹vineyards thou dost plant, and hast laboured, and wine thou dost not drink nor gather, for the worm doth consume it;

⁴⁰olives are to thee in all thy border, and oil thou dost not pour out, for thine olive doth fall off.

⁴¹`Sons and daughters thou dost beget, and they are not with thee, for they go into captivity;

⁴²all thy trees and the fruit of thy ground doth the locust possess;

⁴³the sojourner who [is] in thy midst goeth up above thee very high, and thou goest down very low;

⁴⁴he doth lend [to] thee, and thou dost not lend [to] him; he is for head, and thou art for tail.

^{45 `And come upon thee have all these curses, and they have pursued thee, and overtaken thee, till thou art destroyed, because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep His commands, and His statutes, which he hath commanded thee;}

⁴⁶and they have been on thee for a sign and for a wonder, also on thy seed — to the age.

^{47 `Because that thou hast not served Jehovah thy God with joy, and with gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things —}

⁴⁸thou hast served thine enemies, whom Jehovah sendeth against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in lack of all things; and he hath put a yoke of iron on thy neck, till He hath destroyed thee.

⁴⁹`Jehovah doth lift up against thee a nation, from afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle it flieth; a nation whose tongue thou hast not heard,

⁵⁰a nation — fierce of countenance — which accepteth not the face of the aged, and the young doth not favour;

⁵¹and it hath eaten the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy ground, till thou art destroyed; which leaveth not to thee corn, new wine, and oil, increase of thine oxen, and wealth of thy flock, till it hath destroyed thee.

^{52 `And it hath laid siege to thee in all thy gates, till thy walls come down, the high and the fenced ones in which thou art trusting, in all thy land; yea, it hath laid siege to thee in all thy gates, in all thy land, which Jehovah thy God hath given to thee;}

⁵³and thou hast eaten the fruit of thy body, flesh of thy sons and thy daughters (whom Jehovah thy God hath given to thee), in the siege, and in the straitness with which thine enemies do straiten thee.

⁵⁴`The man who is tender in thee, and who [is] very delicate — his eye is evil against his brother, and against the wife of his bosom, and against the remnant of his sons whom he leaveth,

⁵⁵against giving to one of them of the flesh of his sons whom he eateth, because he hath nothing left to him, in the siege, and in the straitness with which thine enemy doth straiten thee in all thy gates.

⁵⁶`The tender woman in thee, and the delicate, who hath not tried the sole of her foot to place on the ground because of delicateness and because of tenderness — her eye is evil against the husband of her bosom, and against her son, and against her daughter,

⁵⁷and against her seed which cometh out from between her feet, even against her sons whom she doth bear, for she doth eat them for the lacking of all things in secret, in the siege and in the straitness with which thine enemy doth straiten thee within thy gates.

⁵⁸`If thou dost not observe to do all the words of this law which are written in this book, to fear this honoured and fearful name — Jehovah thy God —

⁵⁹then hath Jehovah made wonderful thy strokes, and the strokes of thy seed — great strokes, and stedfast, and evil sicknesses, and stedfast.

⁶⁰`And He hath brought back on thee all the diseases of Egypt, of the presence of which thou hast been afraid, and they have cleaved to thee;

⁶¹also every sickness and every stroke which is not written in the book of this law; Jehovah doth cause them to go up upon thee till thou art destroyed,

⁶²and ye have been left with few men, instead of which ye have been as stars of the heavens for multitude, because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah thy God.

⁶³`And it hath been, as Jehovah hath rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so doth Jehovah rejoice over you to destroy you, and to lay you waste; and ye have been pulled away from off the ground whither thou art going in to possess it;

⁶⁴and Jehovah hath scattered thee among all the peoples, from the end of the earth even unto the end of the earth; and thou hast served there other gods which thou hast not known, thou and thy fathers — wood and stone.

⁶⁵`And among those nations thou dost not rest, yea, there is no resting-place for the sole of thy foot, and Jehovah hath given to thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and grief of soul;

⁶⁶and thy life hath been hanging in suspense before thee, and thou hast been afraid by night and by day, and dost not believe in thy life;

⁶⁷in the morning thou sayest, O that it were evening! and in the evening thou sayest, O that it were morning! from the fear of thy heart, with which thou art afraid, and from the sight of thine eyes which thou seest.

^{68 `And Jehovah hath brought thee back to Egypt with ships, by a way of which I said to thee, Thou dost not add any more to see it, and ye have sold yourselves there to thine enemies, for men-servants and for maid-servants, and there is no buyer.’ – Aslan International Ministry}

And it hath been, if thou dost hearken diligently – ASLAN International Ministry

²and all these blessings have come upon thee, and overtaken thee, because thou dost hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God:
