Numbers Chapter 27

¹²ForeverOne said to Moses, "Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.

¹³When you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother was gathered; ¹⁴because you rebelled against my word in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the waters before their eyes." (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.) ¹⁵Moses spoke to ForeverOne, saying, ¹⁶"Let ForeverOne, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation, ¹⁷who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in; that the congregation of ForeverOne not be as sheep which have no shepherd." ¹⁸ForeverOne said to Moses, "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him; ¹⁹and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and commission him in their sight.

²⁰You shall put of your honor on him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may obey.

²¹He shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before ForeverOne: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation." ²²Moses did as ForeverOne commanded him; and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation: ²³and he laid his hands on him, and commissioned him, as ForeverOne spoke by Moses.

Numbers Chapter 28

¹ForeverOne spoke to Moses, saying, ²"Command the children of Israel, and tell them, 'My offering, my food for my offerings made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to me, you shall observe to offer to me in their due season.' ³You shall tell them, 'This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to ForeverOne: male lambs a year old without blemish, two day by day, for a continual burnt offering.

⁴You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and you shall offer the other lamb at evening; ⁵with the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil.

⁶It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in Mount Sinai for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to ForeverOne.

⁷Its drink offering shall be the fourth part of a hin for the one lamb. You shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to ForeverOne in the holy place.

⁸The other lamb you shall offer at evening: as the meal offering of the morning, and as the drink offering of it, you shall offer it, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to ForeverOne.

Ezekiel Chapter 11

¹³When I prophesied, Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah LordOfMine ForeverOne! will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?

¹⁴The word of ForeverOne came to me, saying, ¹⁵Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, [are they] to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Go far away from ForeverOne. This land has been given to us for a possession.

¹⁶Therefore say, Thus says LordOfMine ForeverOne: Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they have come to.

¹⁷Therefore say, Thus says LordOfMine ForeverOne: I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.

¹⁸They shall come there, and they shall take away all the detestable things of it and all its abominations from there.

¹⁹I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh; ²⁰that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

²¹But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on their own heads, says LordOfMine ForeverOne.

²²Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

²³The glory of ForeverOne went up from the midst of the city, and stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.

²⁴The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.

²⁵Then I spoke to them of the captivity all the things that ForeverOne had shown me.

Ezekiel Chapter 12

¹The word of ForeverOne also came to me, saying, ²Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see, and don't see, who have ears to hear, and don't hear; for they are a rebellious house.

³Therefore, you son of man, prepare your stuff for moving, and move by day in their sight; and you shall move from your place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.

⁴You shall bring forth your stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for moving; and you yourself will go forth in the evening in their sight, as when men go forth into exile.

⁵Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.

⁶In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, so that you don't see the land: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.

⁷I did just as I was commanded. I brought out my stuff by day, as stuff for removing, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.

Psalm 143

A Psalm by David.

¹Hear my prayer, ForeverOne. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.

²Don't enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.

³For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.

⁴Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.

⁵I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.

⁶I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah.

⁷Hurry to answer me, ForeverOne. My spirit fails. Don't hide your face from me, so that I don't become like those who go down into the pit.

⁸Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.

⁹Deliver me, ForeverOne, from my enemies. I flee to you to hide me.

¹⁰Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.

¹¹Revive me, ForeverOne, for your name's sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.

¹²In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.

Psalm 144

By David.

¹Blessed be ForeverOne, my rock, who teaches my hands to war, and my fingers to battle: ²my loving kindness, my fortress, my high tower, my deliverer, my shield, and he in whom I take refuge; who subdues my people under me.

³ForeverOne, what is man, that you care for him? Or the son of man, that you think of him?

⁴Man is like a breath. His days are like a shadow that passes away.

⁵Part your heavens, ForeverOne, and come down. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.

⁶Throw out lightning, and scatter them. Send out your arrows, and rout them.

⁷Stretch out your hand from above, rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hands of foreigners; ⁸whose mouths speak deceit, Whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

⁹I will sing a new song to you, God. On a ten-stringed lyre, I will sing praises to you.

¹⁰You are he who gives salvation to kings, who rescues David, his servant, from the deadly sword.

¹¹Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hands of foreigners, whose mouths speak deceit, whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

¹²Then our sons will be like well-nurtured plants, our daughters like pillars carved to adorn a palace.

¹³Our barns are full, filled with all kinds of provision. Our sheep produce thousands and ten thousands in our fields.

¹⁴Our oxen will pull heavy loads. There is no breaking in, and no going away, and no outcry in our streets.

¹⁵Happy are the people who are in such a situation. Happy are the people whose God is ForeverOne.

Philippians Chapter 2

¹So if there is any exhortation in the AnointedOne, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion, ²fulfil my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

³Do nothing through rivalry or conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than themselves.

⁴Let each of you not only look after yourselves, but also look after others.

⁵Have this in your mind, which was also in AnointedOne Jesus, ⁶who, existing in the form of God, didn't consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, ⁷but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.

⁸And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient; obedient to the point of death. Even death on a cross.

⁹So God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name, ¹⁰that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth, ¹¹and that every tongue should confess that Jesus AnointedOne is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

¹²So then, my dear-ones, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

¹³For it is God who works in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.

¹⁴Do all things without complaining and arguing, ¹⁵that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world, ¹⁶holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of the AnointedOne, that I didn't run in vain nor labor in vain.

¹⁷Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice with you all.

¹⁸In the same way, you also rejoice, and rejoice with me.

¹⁹But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing.

²⁰For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you.

²¹For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus AnointedOne.

²²But you know the proof of him, that as a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.

²³So I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.

²⁴But I trust in the Lord that I myself also will come shortly.

²⁵But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need, ²⁶since he longed for you all, and was very troubled because you had heard that he was sick.

²⁷For indeed he was sick, nearly to death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.

²⁸So I have sent him the more diligently, that when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.

²⁹So receive him in the Lord with all joy, and hold such people in honor, ³⁰because for the work of the AnointedOne he came near to death, risking his life to supply what was lacking in your service toward me.
