¹These were the sons of Israel: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, ²Dan, Joseph, Benjamin, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher. ³The sons of Judah were Er, Onan, and Shelah. These three were born to him by the daughter of Shua, the Canaanitess. Er, the firstborn of Judah, was wicked in the sight of the Lᴏʀᴅ; so He killed him. ⁴And Tamar, his daughter-in-law, bore him Perez and Zerah. All the sons of Judah were five. ⁵The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul. ⁶The sons of Zerah were Zimri, Ethan, Heman, Calcol, and Dara—five of them in all. ⁷The son of Carmi was Achar, the troubler of Israel, who transgressed in the accursed thing. ⁸The son of Ethan was Azariah. ⁹Also the sons of Hezron who were born to him were Jerahmeel, Ram, and Chelubai. ¹⁰Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, leader of the children of Judah; ¹¹Nahshon begot Salma, and Salma begot Boaz; ¹²Boaz begot Obed, and Obed begot Jesse; ¹³Jesse begot Eliab his firstborn, Abinadab the second, Shimea the third, ¹⁴Nethanel the fourth, Raddai the fifth, ¹⁵Ozem the sixth, and David the seventh. ¹⁶Now their sisters were Zeruiah and Abigail.

Now these were her sons: Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon. ¹⁹When Azubah died, Caleb took Ephrath as his wife, who bore him Hur. ²⁰And Hur begot Uri, and Uri begot Bezalel. ²¹Now afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father of Gilead, whom he married when he was sixty years old; and she bore him Segub. ²²Segub begot Jair, who had twenty-three cities in the land of Gilead. ²³(Geshur and Syria took from them the towns of Jair, with Kenath and its towns—sixty towns.) All these belonged to the sons of Machir the father of Gilead. ²⁴After Hezron died in Caleb Ephrathah, Hezron’s wife Abijah bore him Ashhur the father of Tekoa. ²⁵The sons of Jerahmeel, the firstborn of Hezron, were Ram, the firstborn, and Bunah, Oren, Ozem, and Ahijah. ²⁶Jerahmeel had another wife, whose name was Atarah; she was the mother of Onam. ²⁷The sons of Ram, the firstborn of Jerahmeel, were Maaz, Jamin, and Eker. ²⁸The sons of Onam were Shammai and Jada.

From these came the Zorathites and the Eshtaolites. ⁵⁴The sons of Salma were Bethlehem, the Netophathites, Atroth Beth Joab, half of the Manahethites, and the Zorites. ⁵⁵And the families of the scribes who dwelt at Jabez were the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and the Suchathites. These were the Kenites who came from Hammath, the father of the house of Rechab.

¹Now this is the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, ²a Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord erected, and not man. ³For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this One also have something to offer. ⁴For if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law; ⁵who serve the copy and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, “See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” ⁶But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises. ⁷For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. ⁸Because finding fault with them, He says: “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— ⁹not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says the Lord. ¹⁰For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. ¹¹None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. ¹²For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” ¹³In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.

¹Thus says the Lᴏʀᴅ: “For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because he burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime. ²But I will send a fire upon Moab, And it shall devour the palaces of Kerioth; Moab shall die with tumult, With shouting and trumpet sound. ³And I will cut off the judge from its midst, And slay all its princes with him,” Says the Lᴏʀᴅ. ⁴Thus says the Lᴏʀᴅ: “For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they have despised the law of the Lᴏʀᴅ, And have not kept His commandments. Their lies lead them astray, Lies which their fathers followed. ⁵But I will send a fire upon Judah, And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.” ⁶Thus says the Lᴏʀᴅ: “For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they sell the righteous for silver, And the poor for a pair of sandals. ⁷They pant after the dust of the earth which is on the head of the poor, And pervert the way of the humble. A man and his father go in to the same girl, To defile My holy name. ⁸They lie down by every altar on clothes taken in pledge, And drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god. ⁹“Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, Whose height was like the height of the cedars, And he was as strong as the oaks; Yet I destroyed his fruit above And his roots beneath. ¹⁰Also it was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt, And led you forty years through the wilderness, To possess the land of the Amorite. ¹¹I raised up some of your sons as prophets, And some of your young men as Nazirites. Is it not so, O you children of Israel?” Says the Lᴏʀᴅ. ¹²“But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, And commanded the prophets saying, ‘Do not prophesy!’ ¹³“Behold, I am weighed down by you, As a cart full of sheaves is weighed down. ¹⁴Therefore flight shall perish from the swift, The strong shall not strengthen his power, Nor shall the mighty deliver himself; ¹⁵He shall not stand who handles the bow, The swift of foot shall not escape, Nor shall he who rides a horse deliver himself. ¹⁶The most courageous men of might Shall flee naked in that day,” Says the Lᴏʀᴅ.

¹A Praise of David. I will extol You, my God, O King; And I will bless Your name forever and ever. ²Every day I will bless You, And I will praise Your name forever and ever. ³Great is the Lᴏʀᴅ, and greatly to be praised; And His greatness is unsearchable. ⁴One generation shall praise Your works to another, And shall declare Your mighty acts. ⁵I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, And on Your wondrous works. ⁶Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts, And I will declare Your greatness. ⁷They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness, And shall sing of Your righteousness. ⁸The Lᴏʀᴅ is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy. ⁹The Lᴏʀᴅ is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works. ¹⁰All Your works shall praise You, O Lᴏʀᴅ, And Your saints shall bless You. ¹¹They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom, And talk of Your power, ¹²To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts, And the glorious majesty of His kingdom. ¹³Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And Your dominion endures throughout all generations. ¹⁴The Lᴏʀᴅ upholds all who fall, And raises up all who are bowed down. ¹⁵The eyes of all look expectantly to You, And You give them their food in due season. ¹⁶You open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing. ¹⁷The Lᴏʀᴅ is righteous in all His ways, Gracious in all His works. ¹⁸The Lᴏʀᴅ is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. ¹⁹He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them. ²⁰The Lᴏʀᴅ preserves all who love Him, But all the wicked He will destroy. ²¹My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lᴏʀᴅ, And all flesh shall bless His holy name Forever and ever.
