`When one is found slain on the ground which Jehovah thy God – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `When one is found slain on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to possess it — fallen in a field — it is not known who hath smitten him,

²then have thine elders and thy judges gone out and measured unto the cities which [are] round about the slain one,

³and it hath been, the city which [is] near unto the slain one, even the elders of that city have taken a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, which hath not drawn in the yoke,

⁴and the elders of that city have brought down the heifer unto a hard valley, which is not tilled nor sown, and have beheaded there the heifer in the valley.

^{5 `And the priests, sons of Levi, have come nigh — for on them hath Jehovah thy God fixed to serve Him, and to bless in the name of Jehovah, and by their mouth is every strife, and every stroke —}

⁶and all the elders of that city, who are near unto the slain one, do wash their hands over the heifer which is beheaded in the valley,

^{7 and they have answered and said, Our hands have not shed this blood, and our eyes have not seen —}

⁸receive atonement for Thy people Israel, whom Thou hast ransomed, O Jehovah, and suffer not innocent blood in the midst of Thy people Israel; and the blood hath been pardoned to them,

^{9 and thou dost put away the innocent blood out of thy midst, for thou dost that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah.}

^{10 `When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and Jehovah thy God hath given them into thy hand, and thou hast taken captive its captivity,}

¹¹and hast seen in the captivity a woman of fair form, and hast delighted in her, and hast taken to thee for a wife,

^{12 then thou hast brought her in unto the midst of thy household, and she hath shaved her head, and prepared her nails,}

^{13 and turned aside the raiment of her captivity from off her, and hath dwelt in thy house, and bewailed her father and her mother a month of days, and afterwards thou dost go in unto her and hast married her, and she hath been to thee for a wife:}

^{14 `And it hath been — if thou hast not delighted in her, that thou hast sent her away at her desire, and thou dost not at all sell her for money; thou dost not tyrannize over her, because that thou hast humbled her.}

^{15 `When a man hath two wives, the one loved and the other hated, and they have borne to him sons (the loved one and the hated one), and the first-born son hath been to the hated one;}

¹⁶then it hath been, in the day of his causing his sons to inherit that which he hath, he is not able to declare first-born the son of the loved one, in the face of the son of the hated one — the first-born.

¹⁷But the first-born, son of the hated one, he doth acknowledge, to give to him a double portion of all that is found with him, for he [is] the beginning of his strength; to him [is] the right of the first-born.

^{18 `When a man hath a son apostatizing and rebellious — he is not hearkening to the voice of his father, and to the voice of his mother, and they have chastised him, and he doth not hearken unto them —}

¹⁹then laid hold on him have his father and his mother, and they have brought him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place,

²⁰and have said unto the elders of his city, Our son — this one — is apostatizing and rebellious; he is not hearkening to our voice — a glutton and drunkard;

^{21 and all the men of his city have stoned him with stones, and he hath died, and thou hast put away the evil out of thy midst, and all Israel do hear and fear.}

²²`And when there is in a man a sin — a cause of death, and he hath been put to death, and thou hast hanged him on a tree,

^{23 his corpse doth not remain on the tree, for thou dost certainly bury him in that day — for a thing lightly esteemed of God [is] the hanged one — and thou dost not defile thy ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance. – Aslan International Ministry}

`Hear, Israel, thou art passing over to-day – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `Hear, Israel, thou art passing over to-day the Jordan, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself; cities great and fenced in the heavens;

²a people great and tall, sons of Anakim, whom thou — thou hast known, (and thou — thou hast heard: Who doth station himself before sons of Anak?)

³and thou hast known to-day, that Jehovah thy God [is] He who is passing over before thee — a fire consuming; He doth destroy them, and He doth humble them before thee, and thou hast dispossessed them, and destroyed them hastily, as Jehovah hath spoken to thee.

^{4 `Thou dost not speak in thy heart (in Jehovah thy God’s driving them away from before thee), saying, For my righteousness hath Jehovah brought me in to possess this land, seeing for the wickedness of these nations is Jehovah dispossessing them from thy presence;}

^{5 not for thy righteousness, and for the uprightness of thy heart, art thou going in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations is Jehovah thy God dispossessing them from before thee; and in order to establish the word which Jehovah hath sworn to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob;}

^{6 and thou hast known, that not for thy righteousness is Jehovah thy God giving to thee this good land to possess it, for a people stiff of neck thou [art].}

⁷`Remember — do not forget — that [with] which thou hast made Jehovah thy God wroth in the wilderness; even from the day that thou hast come out of the land of Egypt till your coming in unto this place rebels ye have been with Jehovah;

⁸even in Horeb ye have made Jehovah wroth, and Jehovah sheweth Himself angry against you — to destroy you.

⁹`In my going up into the mount to receive the tables of stone (tables of the covenant which Jehovah hath made with you), and I abide in the mount forty days and forty nights; bread I have not eaten, and water I have not drunk;

¹⁰and Jehovah giveth unto me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God, and on them according to all the words which Jehovah hath spoken with you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly.

^{11 `And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days and forty nights, Jehovah hath given unto me the two tables of stone — tables of the covenant,}

^{12 and Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go down, hasten from this, for thy people hath done corruptly, whom thou hast brought out of Egypt; they have turned aside hastily out of the way which I have commanded them — they have made to themselves a molten thing!}

^{13 `And Jehovah speaketh unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and lo, a people stiff of neck it [is];}

¹⁴desist from Me, and I destroy them, and blot out their name from under the heavens, and I make thee become a nation more mighty and numerous than it.

¹⁵`And I turn, and come down from the mount, and the mount is burning with fire, and the two tables of the covenant on my two hands,

¹⁶and I see, and lo, ye have sinned against Jehovah your God; ye have made to yourselves a molten calf; ye have turned aside hastily out of the way which Jehovah hath commanded you.

¹⁷`And I lay hold on the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and break them before your eyes,

¹⁸and I throw myself before Jehovah, as at first, forty days and forty nights; bread I have not eaten, and water I have not drunk, because of all your sins which ye have sinned, by doing the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to make Him angry.

^{19 `For I have been afraid because of the anger and the fury with which Jehovah hath been wroth against you, to destroy you; and Jehovah doth hearken unto me also at this time.}

²⁰`And with Aaron hath Jehovah shewed himself very angry, to destroy him, and I pray also for Aaron at that time;

²¹and your sin, which ye have made — the calf — I have taken, and I burn it with fire, and beat it, grinding well till that it [is] small as dust, and I cast its dust unto the brook which is going down out of the mount.

²²`And in Taberah, and in Massah, and in Kibroth-Hattaavah, ye have been making Jehovah wroth:

^{23 and in Jehovah’s sending you from Kadesh-Barnea, saying, Go up, and possess the land which I have given to you, then ye provoke the mouth of Jehovah your God, and have not given credence to Him, nor hearkened to His voice;}

²⁴rebels ye have been with Jehovah from the day of my knowing you.

²⁵`And I throw myself before Jehovah, the forty days and the forty nights, as I had thrown myself, for Jehovah hath said — to destroy you;

^{26 and I pray unto Jehovah, and say, Lord Jehovah, destroy not Thy people, and Thine inheritance, whom Thou hast ransomed in Thy greatness; whom Thou hast brought out of Egypt with a strong hand;}

²⁷be mindful of Thy servants, of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, turn not unto the stiffness of this people, and unto its wickedness, and unto its sin;

^{28 lest the land say from which Thou hast brought us out, Because of Jehovah’s want of ability to bring them in unto the land of which He hath spoken to them, and because of His hating them, He brought them out to put them to death in the wilderness;}

²⁹and they [are] Thy people, and Thine inheritance, whom Thou hast brought out by Thy great power, and by Thy stretched-out arm! – Aslan International Ministry

In the beginning was the Word – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God;

²this one was in the beginning with God;

^{3 all things through him did happen, and without him happened not even one thing that hath happened.}

⁴In him was life, and the life was the light of men,

⁵and the light in the darkness did shine, and the darkness did not perceive it.

^{6 There came a man — having been sent from God — whose name [is] John,}

⁷this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;

⁸that one was not the Light, but — that he might testify about the Light.

^{9 He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;}

¹⁰in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:

¹¹to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him;

^{12 but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God — to those believing in his name,}

^{13 who — not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but — of God were begotten.}

¹⁴And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a father, full of grace and truth.

¹⁵John doth testify concerning him, and hath cried, saying, `This was he of whom I said, He who after me is coming, hath come before me, for he was before me;’

¹⁶and out of his fulness did we all receive, and grace over-against grace;

^{17 for the law through Moses was given, the grace and the truth through Jesus Christ did come;}

^{18 God no one hath ever seen; the only begotten Son, who is on the bosom of the Father — he did declare.}

¹⁹And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, `Who art thou?’

²⁰and he confessed and did not deny, and confessed — `I am not the Christ.’

²¹And they questioned him, `What then? Elijah art thou?’ and he saith, `I am not.’ — `The prophet art thou?’ and he answered, `No.’

²²They said then to him, `Who art thou, that we may give an answer to those sending us? what dost thou say concerning thyself?’

²³He said, `I [am] a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet.’

²⁴And those sent were of the Pharisees,

²⁵and they questioned him and said to him, `Why, then, dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?’

²⁶John answered them, saying, `I baptize with water, but in midst of you he hath stood whom ye have not known, this one it is who is coming after me, who hath been before me,

²⁷of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the cord of his sandal.’

²⁸These things came to pass in Bethabara, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing,

²⁹on the morrow John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, `Lo, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world;

^{30 this is he concerning whom I said, After me doth come a man, who hath come before me, because he was before me:}

³¹and I knew him not, but, that he might be manifested to Israel, because of this I came with the water baptizing.

^{32 And John testified, saying — `I have seen the Spirit coming down, as a dove, out of heaven, and it remained on him;}

^{33 and I did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whomsoever thou mayst see the Spirit coming down, and remaining on him, this is he who is baptizing with the Holy Spirit;}

³⁴and I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.’

³⁵On the morrow, again, John was standing, and two of his disciples,

³⁶and having looked on Jesus walking, he saith, `Lo, the Lamb of God;’

³⁷and the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.

³⁸And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, saith to them, `What seek ye?’ and they said to them, `Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher,) where remainest thou?’

³⁹He saith to them, `Come and see;’ they came, and saw where he doth remain, and with him they remained that day and the hour was about the tenth.

⁴⁰Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard from John, and followed him;

⁴¹this one doth first find his own brother Simon, and saith to him, `We have found the Messiah,’ (which is, being interpreted, The Anointed,)

^{42 and he brought him unto Jesus: and having looked upon him, Jesus saith, `Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas, thou shalt be called Cephas,’ (which is interpreted, A rock.)}

⁴³On the morrow, he willed to go forth to Galilee, and he findeth Philip, and saith to him, `Be following me.’

⁴⁴And Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter;

⁴⁵Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, `Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the prophets, we have found, Jesus the son of Joseph, who [is] from Nazareth;’

⁴⁶and Nathanael said to him, `Out of Nazareth is any good thing able to be?’ Philip said to him, `Come and see.’

⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming unto him, and he saith concerning him, `Lo, truly an Israelite, in whom guile is not;’

⁴⁸Nathanael saith to him, `Whence me dost thou know?’ Jesus answered and said to him, `Before Philip’s calling thee — thou being under the fig-tree — I saw thee.’

⁴⁹Nathanael answered and saith to him, `Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.’

⁵⁰Jesus answered and said to him, `Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou dost believe; greater things than these thou shalt see;’

^{51 and he saith to him, `Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth ye shall see the heaven opened, and the messengers of God going up and coming down upon the Son of Man.’ – Aslan International Ministry}

When there ariseth in your midst a prophet, or a dreamer of a dream – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `When there ariseth in your midst a prophet, or a dreamer of a dream, and he hath given unto thee a sign or wonder,

²and the sign and the wonder hath come which he hath spoken of unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods (which thou hast not known), and serve them,

^{3 thou dost not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of the dream, for Jehovah your God is trying you, to know whether ye are loving Jehovah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul;}

⁴after Jehovah your God ye walk, and Him ye fear, and His commands ye keep, and to His voice ye hearken, and Him ye serve, and to Him ye cleave.

^{5 `And that prophet, or that dreamer of the dream, is put to death, for he hath spoken apostacy against Jehovah your God (who is bringing you out of the land of Egypt, and hath ransomed you out of a house of servants), to drive you out of the way in which Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee to walk, and thou hast put away the evil thing from thy midst.}

^{6 `When thy brother — son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend who [is] as thine own soul — doth move thee, in secret, saying, Let us go and serve other gods — (which thou hast not known, thou and thy fathers,}

⁷of the gods of the peoples who [are] round about you, who are near unto thee, or who are far off from thee, from the end of the earth even unto the end of the earth) —

^{8 thou dost not consent to him, nor hearken unto him, nor doth thine eye have pity on him, nor dost thou spare, nor dost thou cover him over.}

^{9 `But thou dost surely kill him; thy hand is on him, in the first place, to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last;}

^{10 and thou hast stoned him with stones, and he hath died, for he hath sought to drive thee away from Jehovah thy God, who is bringing thee out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants;}

¹¹and all Israel do hear and fear, and add not to do like this evil thing in thy midst.

^{12 `When thou hearest, in one of thy cities which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to dwell there, [one] saying,}

¹³Men, sons of worthlessness, have gone out of thy midst, and they force away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known —

¹⁴and thou hast enquired, and searched, and asked diligently, and lo, truth; the thing is established; this abomination hath been done in thy midst:

¹⁵`Thou dost surely smite the inhabitants of that city by the mouth of the sword; devoting it, and all that [is] in it, even its cattle, by the mouth of the sword;

^{16 and all its spoil thou dost gather unto the midst of its broad place, and hast burned with fire the city and all its spoil completely, before Jehovah thy God, and it hath been a heap age-during, it is not built any more;}

¹⁷and there doth not cleave to thy hand any of the devoted thing, so that Jehovah doth turn back from the fierceness of His anger, and hath given to thee mercies, and loved thee, and multiplied thee, as He hath sworn to thy fathers,

^{18 when thou dost hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep all his commands which I am commanding thee to-day, to do that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God. – Aslan International Ministry}

`When there is a strife between men, and they have come nigh – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `When there is a strife between men, and they have come nigh unto the judgment, and they have judged, and declared righteous the righteous, and declared wrong the wrong-doer,

²then it hath come to pass, if the wrong-doer is to be smitten, that the judge hath caused him to fall down, and [one] hath smitten him in his presence, according to the sufficiency of his wrong-doing, by number;

³forty [times] he doth smite him — he is not adding, lest, he is adding to smite him above these — many stripes, and thy brother is lightly esteemed in thine eyes.

⁴`Thou dost not muzzle an ox in its threshing.

⁵`When brethren dwell together, and one of them hath died, and hath no son, the wife of the dead is not without to a strange man; her husband’s brother doth go in unto her, and hath taken her to him for a wife, and doth perform the duty of her husband’s brother;

⁶and it hath been, the first-born which she beareth doth rise for the name of his dead brother, and his name is not wiped away out of Israel.

⁷`And if the man doth not delight to take his brother’s wife, then hath his brother’s wife gone up to the gate, unto the elders, and said, My husband’s brother is refusing to raise up to his brother a name in Israel; he hath not been willing to perform the duty of my husband’s brother;

⁸and the elders of his city have called for him, and spoken unto him, and he hath stood and said, I have no desire to take her;

^{9 `Then hath his brother’s wife drawn nigh unto him, before the eyes of the elders, and drawn his shoe from off his foot, and spat in his face, and answered and said, Thus it is done to the man who doth not build up the house of his brother;}

¹⁰and his name hath been called in Israel — The house of him whose shoe is drawn off.

^{11 `When men strive together, one with another, and the wife of the one hath drawn near to deliver her husband out of the hand of his smiter, and hath put forth her hand, and laid hold on his secrets,}

¹²then thou hast cut off her hand, thine eye doth not spare.

¹³`Thou hast not in thy bag a stone and a stone, a great and a small.

¹⁴Thou hast not in thy house an ephah and an ephah, a great and a small.

^{15 Thou hast a stone complete and just, thou hast an ephah complete and just, so that they prolong thy days on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee;}

^{16 for the abomination of Jehovah thy God [is] any one doing these things, any one doing iniquity.}

¹⁷`Remember that which Amalek hath done to thee in the way, in your going out from Egypt,

¹⁸that he hath met thee in the way, and smiteth in all those feeble behind thee (and thou wearied and fatigued), and is not fearing God.

^{19 And it hath been, in Jehovah thy God’s giving rest to thee, from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance to possess it — thou dost blot out the rememberance of Amalek from under the heavens — thou dost not forget. – Aslan International Ministry}
