Leviticus 1:1-3:17 1 Then the
Lord called to Moses and spoke to him
from the Meeting Tent:
2 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them, ‘When
someone
among you presents an offering
to the
Lord,
you
must present your offering from the domesticated animals, either from the herd or from the flock.
3 “‘If his offering is a burnt offering
from the herd he must present it as a flawless male; he must present it at the entrance
of the Meeting Tent for its
acceptance before the
Lord.
4 He must lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted for him to make atonement
on his behalf.
5 Then the one presenting the offering
must slaughter the bull
before the
Lord, and the sons of Aaron, the priests, must present the blood and splash
the blood against the sides of the altar which is at the entrance of the Meeting Tent.
6 Next, the one presenting the offering
must skin the burnt offering and cut it into parts,
7 and the sons of Aaron, the priest,
must put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.
8 Then the sons of Aaron, the priests, must arrange the parts with the head and the suet
on the wood that is in the fire on the altar.
9 Finally, the one presenting the offering
must wash its entrails and its legs in water and the priest must offer all of it up in smoke on the altar
– it is
a burnt offering, a gift
of a soothing aroma to the
Lord.
10 “‘If his offering is from the flock for a burnt offering
– from the sheep or the goats – he must present a flawless male,
11 and must slaughter it on the north side of the altar before the
Lord, and the sons of Aaron, the priests, will splash its blood against the altar’s sides.
12 Next, the one presenting the offering
must cut it into parts, with its head and its suet, and the priest must arrange them on the wood which is in the fire, on the altar.
13 Then the one presenting the offering must wash the entrails and the legs in water, and the priest must present all of it and offer it up in smoke on the altar – it is a burnt offering, a gift of a soothing aroma to the
Lord.
14 “‘If his offering to the
Lord is a burnt offering from the birds,
he must present his offering from the turtledoves or from the young pigeons.
15 The priest must present it at the altar, pinch off
its head and offer the head
up in smoke on the altar, and its blood must be drained out against the side of the altar.
16 Then the priest
must remove its entrails by cutting off its tail feathers,
and throw them
to the east side of the altar into the place of fatty ashes,
17 and tear it open by its wings without dividing it into two parts.
Finally, the priest must offer it up in smoke on the altar on the wood which is in the fire – it is a burnt offering, a gift of a soothing aroma to the
Lord.
1 “‘When a person presents a grain offering
to the
Lord, his offering must consist of choice wheat flour,
and he must pour olive oil on it and put frankincense
on it.
2 Then he must bring it to the sons of Aaron, the priests, and the priest
must scoop out from there a handful of its choice wheat flour and some of its olive oil in addition to all of its frankincense, and the priest must offer its memorial portion
up in smoke on the altar – it is
a gift of a soothing aroma to the
Lord.
3 The remainder of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and to his sons
– it is
most holy
from the gifts of the
Lord.
4 “‘When you present an offering of grain baked in an oven, it must be made of
choice wheat flour baked into unleavened loaves
mixed with olive oil or
unleavened wafers smeared
with olive oil.
5 If your offering is a grain offering made on the griddle, it must be choice wheat flour mixed with olive oil, unleavened.
6 Crumble it in pieces
and pour olive oil on it – it is a grain offering.
7 If your offering is a grain offering made in a pan,
it must be made of choice wheat flour deep fried in olive oil.
8 “‘You must bring the grain offering that must be made from these to the
Lord. Present it to the priest,
and he will bring it to the altar.
9 Then the priest must take up
from the grain offering its memorial portion and offer it up in smoke on the altar – it is
a gift of a soothing aroma to the
Lord.
10 The remainder of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and to his sons – it is
most holy from the gifts of the
Lord.
11 “‘No grain offering which you present to the
Lord can be made with yeast,
for you must not offer up in smoke any yeast or honey as a gift to the
Lord.
12 You can present them to the
Lord as an offering of first fruit,
but they must not go up to the altar for a soothing aroma.
13 Moreover, you must season every one of your grain offerings with salt; you must not allow the salt of the covenant of your God to be missing from your grain offering
– on every one of your grain offerings you must present salt.
14 “‘If you present a grain offering of first ripe grain to the
Lord, you must present your grain offering of first ripe grain as soft kernels roasted in fire – crushed bits of fresh grain.
15 And you must put olive oil on it and set frankincense on it – it is a grain offering.
16 Then the priest must offer its memorial portion up in smoke – some of its crushed bits, some of its olive oil, in addition to all of its frankincense – it is
a gift to the
Lord.
1 “‘Now if his offering is a peace offering sacrifice,
if he presents an offering from the herd, he must present before the
Lord a flawless male or a female.
2 He must lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it at the entrance of the Meeting Tent, and the sons of Aaron, the priests, must splash the blood against the altar’s sides.
3 Then the one presenting the offering
must present a gift to the
Lord from the peace offering sacrifice: He must remove the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that surrounds the entrails,
4 the two kidneys with the fat on their sinews, and the protruding lobe on the liver (which he is to remove along with the kidneys).
5 Then the sons of Aaron must offer it up in smoke on the altar atop the burnt offering that is on the wood in the fire as a gift of a soothing aroma to the
Lord.
6 “‘If his offering for a peace offering sacrifice to the
Lord is from the flock, he must present a flawless male or female.
7 If he presents a sheep as his offering, he must present it before the
Lord.
8 He must lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it before the Meeting Tent, and the sons of Aaron must splash
its blood against the altar’s sides.
9 Then he must present a gift to the
Lord from the peace offering sacrifice: He must remove all the fatty tail up to the end of the spine, the fat covering the entrails, and all the fat on the entrails,
10 the two kidneys with the fat on their sinews, and the protruding lobe on the liver (which he is to remove along with the kidneys).
11 Then the priest must offer it up in smoke on the altar as a food gift to the
Lord.
12 “‘If his offering is a goat he must present it before the
Lord,
13 lay his hand on its head, and slaughter it before the Meeting Tent, and the sons of Aaron must splash its blood against the altar’s sides.
14 Then he must present from it his offering as a gift to the
Lord: the fat which covers the entrails and all the fat on the entrails,
15 the two kidneys with the fat on their sinews, and the protruding lobe on the liver (which he is to remove along with the kidneys).
16 Then the priest must offer them up in smoke on the altar as a food gift for a soothing aroma – all the fat belongs to the
Lord.
17 This is
a perpetual statute throughout your generations
in all the places where you live: You must never eat any fat or any blood.’”
Context (NET) Mark 1:29-2:12 29 Now
as soon as they left the synagogue,
they entered Simon and Andrew’s house, with James and John.
30 Simon’s mother-in-law was lying down, sick with a fever, so
they spoke to Jesus
at once about her.
31 He came and raised her up by gently taking her hand. Then the fever left her and she began to serve
them.
32 When it was evening, after sunset, they brought to him all who were sick and demon-possessed.
33 The whole town gathered by the door.
34 So
he healed many who were sick with various diseases and drove out many demons.
But
he would not permit the demons to speak,
because they knew him.
35 Then
Jesus
got up early in the morning when it was still very dark, departed, and went out to a deserted place, and there he spent time in prayer.
36 Simon and his companions searched for him.
37 When they found him, they said, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 He replied,
“Let us go elsewhere, into the surrounding villages, so that I can preach there too. For that is what I came out here to do.”
39 So
he went into all of Galilee preaching in their synagogues
and casting out demons.
40 Now
a leper
came to him and fell to his knees, asking for help. “If
you are willing, you can make me clean,” he said.
41 Moved with compassion,
Jesus
stretched out his hand and touched
him, saying, “I am willing. Be clean!”
42 The leprosy left him at once, and he was clean.
43 Immediately Jesus
sent the man
away with a very strong warning.
44 He told him,
“See that you do not say anything to anyone,
but go, show yourself to a priest, and bring the offering that Moses commanded
for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
45 But as the man
went out he began to announce it publicly and spread the story widely, so that Jesus
was no longer able to enter any town openly but stayed outside in remote places. Still
they kept coming
to him from everywhere.
1 Now
after some days, when he returned to Capernaum,
the news spread
that he was at home.
2 So many gathered that there was no longer any room, not even by
the door, and he preached the word to them.
3 Some people
came bringing to him a paralytic, carried by four of them.
4 When they were not able to bring him in because of the crowd, they removed the roof
above Jesus.
Then,
after tearing it out, they lowered the stretcher the paralytic was lying on.
5 When Jesus saw their
faith, he said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”
6 Now some of the experts in the law
were sitting there, turning these things over in their minds:
7 “Why does this man speak this way? He is blaspheming!
Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
8 Now
immediately, when Jesus realized in his spirit that they were contemplating such thoughts,
he said to them, “Why are you thinking such things in your hearts?
9 Which is easier,
to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Stand up, take your stretcher, and walk’?
10 But so that you may know
that the Son of Man
has authority on earth to forgive sins,” – he said to the paralytic
–
11 “I tell you, stand up, take your stretcher, and go home.”
12 And immediately the man
stood up, took his stretcher, and went out in front of them all. They were all amazed and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”
Context (NET) Psalm 35:17-28 17 O Lord, how long are you going to just stand there and watch this?
Rescue
me
from their destructive attacks; guard my life
from the young lions!
18 Then I will give you thanks in the great assembly;
I will praise you before a large crowd of people!
19 Do not let those who are my enemies for no reason
gloat
over me! Do not let those who hate me without cause carry out their wicked schemes!
20 For they do not try to make peace with others,
but plan ways to deceive those who are unsuspecting.
21 They are ready to devour me;
they say, “Aha! Aha! We’ve got you!”
22 But you take notice,
Lord! O Lord, do not remain far away from me!
23 Rouse yourself, wake up
and vindicate me!
My God and Lord, defend my just cause!
24 Vindicate me by your justice, O
Lord my God! Do not let them gloat
over me!
25 Do not let them say to themselves,
“Aha! We have what we wanted!”
Do not let them say, “We have devoured him!”
26 May those who want to harm me be totally embarrassed and ashamed!
May those who arrogantly taunt me be covered with shame and humiliation!
27 May those who desire my vindication shout for joy and rejoice! May they continually say,
“May the
Lord be praised,
for he wants his servant to be secure.”
28 Then I will tell others about your justice,
and praise you all day long.
Context (NET) Proverbs 9:13-18 13 The woman called Folly
is brash,
she is naive
and does not know
anything.
14 So she sits at the door of her house, on a seat at the highest point of the city,
15 calling out
to those who are passing by her
in the way,
who go straight
on their way.
16 “Whoever is simple, let him turn in here,” she says to those who lack understanding.
17 “Stolen waters
are sweet, and food obtained in secret
is pleasant!”
18 But they do not realize
that the dead
are there, that her guests are in the depths of the grave.
