King James Version
1. Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2. "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘I am the LORD your God. 3. ‘According to the doings of the land of Egypt, where you dwelt, you shall not do; and according to the doings of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you, you shall not do; nor shall you walk in their ordinances. 4. ‘You shall observe My judgments and keep My ordinances, to walk in them: I am the LORD your God. 5. ‘You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, which if a man does, he shall live by them: I am the LORD. 6. ‘None of you shall approach anyone who is near of kin to him, to uncover his nakedness: I am the LORD. 7. ‘The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you shall not uncover. She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 8. ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife you shall not uncover; it is your father’s nakedness. 9. ‘The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere, their nakedness you shall not uncover. 10. ‘The nakedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover; for theirs is your own nakedness. 11. ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, begotten by your father––she is your sister––you shall not uncover her nakedness. 12. ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister; she is near of kin to your father. 13. ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, for she is near of kin to your mother. 14. ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother. You shall not approach his wife; she is your aunt. 15. ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter–in–law––she is your son’s wife––you shall not uncover her nakedness. 16. ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife; it is your brother’s nakedness. 17. ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, nor shall you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are near of kin to her. It is wickedness. 18. ‘Nor shall you take a woman as a rival to her sister, to uncover her nakedness while the other is alive. 19. ‘Also you shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness as long as she is in her customary impurity. 20. ‘Moreover you shall not lie carnally with your neighbor’s wife, to defile yourself with her. 21. ‘And you shall not let any of your descendants pass through the fire to Molech, nor shall you profane the name of your God: I am the LORD. 22. ‘You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. 23. ‘Nor shall you mate with any animal, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it. It is perversion. 24. ‘Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. 25. ‘For the land is defiled; therefore I visit the punishment of its iniquity upon it, and the land vomits out its inhabitants. 26. ‘You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations, either any of your own nation or any stranger who dwells among you 27. ‘(for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and thus the land is defiled), 28. ‘lest the land vomit you out also when you defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you. 29. ‘For whoever commits any of these abominations, the persons who commit them shall be cut off from among their people. 30. ‘Therefore you shall keep My ordinance, so that you do not commit any of these abominable customs which were committed before you, and that you do not defile yourselves by them: I am the LORD your God.’"
1. <> LORD, You have been favorable to Your land; You have brought back the captivity of Jacob. 2. You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people; You have covered all their sin. Selah 3. You have taken away all Your wrath; You have turned from the fierceness of Your anger. 4. Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your anger toward us to cease. 5. Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations? 6. Will You not revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in You? 7. Show us Your mercy, LORD, And grant us Your salvation. 8. I will hear what God the LORD will speak, For He will speak peace To His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly. 9. Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land. 10. Mercy and truth have met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed. 11. Truth shall spring out of the earth, And righteousness shall look down from heaven. 12. Yes, the LORD will give what is good; And our land will yield its increase. 13. Righteousness will go before Him, And shall make His footsteps our pathway.
1. <> Bow down Your ear, O LORD, hear me; For I am poor and needy. 0. 2Preserve my life, for I am holy; You are my God; Save Your servant who trusts in You! 3. Be merciful to me, O Lord, For I cry to You all day long. 4. Rejoice the soul of Your servant, For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul. 5. For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You. 6. Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; And attend to the voice of my supplications. 7. In the day of my trouble I will call upon You, For You will answer me. 8. Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord; Nor are there any works like Your works. 9. All nations whom You have made Shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And shall glorify Your name. 10. For You are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God. 11. Teach me Your way, O LORD; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name. 12. I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I will glorify Your name forevermore. 13. For great is Your mercy toward me, And You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol. 14. O God, the proud have risen against me, And a mob of violent men have sought my life, And have not set You before them. 15. But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, Longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth. 16. Oh, turn to me, and have mercy on me! Give Your strength to Your servant, And save the son of Your maidservant. 17. Show me a sign for good, That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed, Because You, LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
1. Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. 2. But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. 3. And do you think this, O man, you who judge those practicing such things, and doing the same, that you will escape the judgment of God? 4. Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? 5. But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, 6. who "will render to each one according to his deeds": 7. eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; 8. but to those who are self–seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness––indignation and wrath, 9. tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; 10. but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11. For there is no partiality with God. 12. For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law 13. (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; 14. for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15. who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them ) 16. in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel. 17. Indeed you are called a Jew, and rest on the law, and make your boast in God, 18. and know His will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, 19. and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, 20. an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having the form of knowledge and truth in the law. 21. You, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal? 22. You who say, "Do not commit adultery," do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? 23. You who make your boast in the law, do you dishonor God through breaking the law? 24. For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," as it is written. 25. For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. 26. Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? 27. And will not the physically uncircumcised, if he fulfills the law, judge you who, even with your written code and circumcision, are a transgressor of the law? 28. For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; 29. but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.
