Now therefore,
O Lord
God of Israel,
keep
with thy servant
David my father that
which thou hast promised him,
saying,
There
shall not fail thee a man
in my sight
to sit upon the throne of Israel;
yet
so that thy children take heed to their way to walk in my law,
as thou hast walked before me.
Now then,
O Lord God of Israel,
let thy
word
be verified,
which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David.
But
will
God in very deed dwell with
men on
the earth?
behold,
heaven
(So)
- and the heaven (Yea) - of heavens
(Me) - cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!
Have
respect therefore
to the prayer of thy servant,
and
to his supplication,
O Lord my God,
to hearken unto the cry and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee:
That thine eyes may be open upon this house day - and night,
upon the place whereof thou hast said that thou wouldest put thy name there;
to
hearken unto the prayer which thy servant
prayeth toward this place.
***
And
he brought me into the inner court of the Lord's
house,
and,
behold,
at
the door
of
the temple of the Lord, - between the porch - and the altar, were about five and
twenty men,
with their backs - toward
the temple
of the Lord,
and
their faces
toward the east;
and
they - worshipped the sun - toward the east.
**
And
I will remember my
covenant,
which is between me
and
you and
every living creature of all flesh;
and
the waters
shall no
more
become a flood to destroy all
flesh.
**
And
God said,
Let
the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle,
and
creeping
thing,
and
beast of the earth after his kind:
and
it was so.
**
And
out of the ground
- made - the Lord God to
grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight,
and
good - for food;
the tree of life also
in the midst of the garden,
and
the tree of knowledge of good
and evil.
*
And God made the beast of the earth
after his kind,
and
cattle after their kind,
and
every thing that creepeth upon the earth after
his kind:
and
- God saw - that it was good.
**
And
God said,
Let
us - make
man in our
image, after our likeness:
and
let – them
(not
man) - have dominion over the fish
of the sea,
and
over the fowl of the air,
and
over the cattle,
and
over all the earth,
and
over every
creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
**
And
the Lord God planted a garden eastward
in
Eden;
and
there he
put
the - man
whom
he had - formed.
(it was so)
**
And
the man
said,
The workman whom
thou
gavest to be with me,
she
gave
me of the tree,
and
I did eat.
**
And
Adam knew
his wife again;
and
she bare a son,
and
called his name Seth:
For God,
said
she,
hath
appointed
me an-other seed instead of Abel,
whom Cain slew.
And
to Seth,
to
him also there was
born a son;
and
he called his name Enos: then - began men - to call upon the name of the Lord.
**
And
the Lord said,
I will destroy
man -
whom I have - created - from the face - of
the earth;
**
And they were both naked,
the man - and his wife,
and
were not
ashamed.
**
I
have created from the face
- of
the earth;
both
man,
and
beast,
and
the creeping thing,
and
the fowls of the air;
for it repenteth me that I have
made them.
But Noah found grace in the eyes of - the Lord.
**
And
of every living thing of all flesh,
two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark,
**
in
the
image of God - created he - him;
male
- and female created he them.
**
to
keep them alive -
with
thee;
they shall be male and female.
Of
fowls after their kind,
and
of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind,
two of every sort shall come unto thee,
to
keep them alive.
**
And
Noah went in,
and his sons,
and
his wife,
and
his sons' wives with him, into the ark,
**
And
the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
**
because
of the waters of the flood.
Of
clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean,
and
of fowls,
and
of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
**
They,
and
every beast after his
kind, and all the cattle after their kind,
and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind,
and
every fowl after his kind, every bird
of
every sort.
And
all flesh died
that moved upon the earth,
both
of fowl,
and
of cattle,
and
of beast,
and
of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth,
and
every man:
**
. . . and
there was
not a man to till the ground.
**
And
every living substance was destroyed
which was upon the face of the ground,
both
man,
and
cattle,
and
the creeping things,
and
the fowl of the heaven;
and
they were destroyed from the earth:
**
. . . Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations,
and
Noah walked
with
God.
**
and
Noah only
remained
alive,
and
they that were with him in
the ark.
**
Bring
forth
with thee every living thing that is with thee,
of all flesh,
both
of fowl,
and
of cattle,
and
of every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth;
that
they
may breed abundantly in the earth,
and
be fruitful,
and
multiply upon the earth.
And
Noah went forth,
and
his sons, (Ham, Japheth)
and
his wife, (Shem)
**
And
Lamech took unto him two wives:
the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
And
Adah bare Jabal:
he
was the father of such as dwell in tents,
and
of such as have cattle.
And
his brother's name was Jubal:
he
was the father of all such as handle the harp - and organ.
And
Zillah,
she
also bare Tubalcain, an instructor
of every artificer in brass and iron:
Naamah.
Daughter of Adah
(fair)
Is
taken to wife of Tubalcain (Dark)
and
the sister
of
Tubalcain was Naamah.
And
Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah,
Hear my
voice;
ye wives of Lamech,
hearken
unto my
speech:
for I
have slain a man to my wounding,
and
a young man to my hurt.
If
Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly
Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
**
and his sons' wives with him:
Every
beast,
every
creeping thing,
and
every fowl,
and
whatsoever creepeth upon the earth,
after
their kinds,
went
forth out
of
the ark.
And
Noah builded
an
altar unto the Lord;
and
took of every clean beast,
and
of every
clean fowl,
and
offered burnt offerings on the altar.
**
And
his father
Isaac
said unto him,
Come near now,
and
kiss me,
my
son.
And
he came near,
and
kissed him:
and
he smelled
- the smell
of
his raiment,
and
blessed him,
and
said,
See,
the smell
of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed:
**
And
the Lord smelled a sweet
savour;
and
the Lord said in his heart, I will
not again curse the ground any more for man's sake;
**
Thou
hast also turned the edge
of his sword,
and
hast not
made him to stand in the battle.
Thou
hast made his glory to
cease,
and
cast his throne down to the ground.
The days
of
his youth hast thou shortened:
thou
hast covered him with shame. Selah.
**
for
the imagination
of man's heart is d-evil from his youth; neither will I again
smite any more every thing living,
as I
have
done.
While
the earth remaineth, seedtime
and harvest, and cold and heat,
and
summer and winter,
and
day and
night shall not
cease.
And
God blessed
Noah - and his sons,
and
said unto them,
Be
fruitful,
and
multiply,
and
replenish the earth.
And
the fear
of
you and the dread of you shall be upon every
beast of the earth,
and
upon every
fowl of
the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth,
and
upon all
the
fishes of the sea;
into your hand - are they
delivered.
Every
moving thing that liveth shall be meat for
you;
even
as the green herb have I given you all things.
But
flesh with the
life thereof, which is the blood
thereof,
shall ye
not eat.
And
surely your blood of your lives will I require;
at
the hand
of
every beast will I require
it,
and
at the hand of
man;
at
the hand
of
every man's brother will I require
the life of man.
Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed:
for
in
the image of God made he man.
And
you,
be ye fruitful,
and multiply; bring forth abundantly in
the earth,
and
multiply therein.
And
God spake unto Noah,
and
to his sons with him,
saying,
And
I, behold,
I
establish
my covenant with you,
and
with your seed after you;
And
with every living creature that is
with
you,
of the fowl,
of the cattle,
and
of every beast of the earth with you;
from
all that go out of the
ark, to every beast of the earth.
And
I will establish my covenant with you;
neither
shall all flesh be cut off any
more by the waters of a flood;
neither
shall there
any more
be a flood to destroy the earth.
And God
said,
This
is
the token
of
the covenant which I make between me and you and every
living creature that is with
you,
for
perpetual generations:
**
But there went
up
a mist from the earth,
and
watered the whole face of the ground.
**
My root
was spread out by the waters,
and
the dew
lay all night upon my
branch.
My
glory was fresh in me,
and
my bow was renewed in
my hand.
Unto me
men
gave ear,
and
waited,
and
kept silence at my counsel.
After
my words
they spake not again;
and
my speech dropped
upon them.
And
they waited for me as
for the rain;
and
they opened
their mouth wide as for the latter rain.
**
I
do set my
bow in
the cloud,
and
it shall be for
a
token of a covenant - between me
- and
the earth.
And
it shall come to pass, when I bring
a cloud over the earth,
that
the bow
shall
be seen in the cloud:
And
I will
remember my
covenant,
which is between me
-
and you
- and every
living
creature of all flesh;
and
the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
And
the bow
shall be in
the cloud;
and
I will look upon it,
that I may remember the everlasting
covenant between God
and every
living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
And
God said
unto Noah,
This
is the token of the covenant,
which I have
established between
me and
all flesh that is upon the earth.
And
the sons of Noah,
that
went
- forth of the ark,
were Shem, (His wife)
And
the sons of Noah
and
Ham,
and Japheth:
and Ham is the father of Canaan.
These are the
three sons of
Noah:
and
of them was the whole earth overspread.
And
Noah - began - to be an
husbandman,
and
he planted
a vineyard:
ISamuelYea
