The Golden Calf 32  When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from the mountain,they gathered around Aaron and said, “Come, make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, we don’t know what has happened to him.” 2  Aaron answered them, “Take off the gold earrings that your wives, your sons and your daughters are wearing, and bring them...

The Ten Commandments 20  And God spoke all these words: 2  “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 3  “You shall have no other gods before me. 4  “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.  5  You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am...

At Mount Sinai 19  On the first day of the third month after the Israelites left Egypt—on that very day—they came to the Desert of Sinai.  2  After they set out from Rephidim, they entered the Desert of Sinai, and Israel camped there in the desert in front of the mountain. 3  Then Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain and said, “This is what you are to say to the desce...

14  Then the Lord said to Moses,  2  “Tell the Israelites to turn back and encamp near Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea. They are to encamp by the sea, directly opposite Baal Zephon.  3  Pharaoh will think, ‘The Israelites are wandering around the land in confusion, hemmed in by the desert.’  4  And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will pursue them. But I will gain glory for myself thr...

When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.” After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine unt...

The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, “This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year. Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb for his family, one for each household. If any household is too small for a whole lamb, they must share one with their nearest neighbor, having taken into account the number of people...

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh: Because of my mighty hand he will let them go; because of my mighty hand he will drive them out of his country.” God also said to Moses, “I am the Lord. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name the Lord I did not make myself fully known to them. I also established my covenant with them to...

Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian,and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of firefrom within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does...

During that long period, the king of Egypt died. The Israelites groaned in their slavery and cried out, and their cry for help because of their slavery went up to God. God heard their groaning and he remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob. So God looked on the Israelites and was concernedabout them.

28  And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.  29  For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.  30  And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified;those he justified, he also glorified...

Joseph Reassures His Brothers 15  When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “What if Joseph holds a grudge against us and pays us back for all the wrongs we did to him?”  16  So they sent word to Joseph, saying, “Your father left these instructions before he died:  17  ‘This is what you are to say to Joseph: I ask you to forgive your brothers the sins and the wrongs they co...

Joseph and Potiphar’s Wife 39  Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. Potiphar, an Egyptian who was one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there. 2  The Lord was with Joseph so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master.  3  When his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord gave him success i...

Jacob and Esau 19  This is the account of the family line of Abraham’s son Isaac.

Abraham Tested 22  Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. 2  Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you.” 3  Early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac....

Abraham Justified by Faith 4  What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter?  2  If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God.  3  What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” 4  Now to the one who works, wages are not credited as a giftbut as...

The Covenant of Circumcision 17  When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lordappeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless.  2  Then I will make my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your numbers.” 3  Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,  4  “As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.  5  No...

The Lord’s Covenant With Abram 15  After this, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision: “Do not be afraid, Abram.     I am your shield,     your very great reward.” 2  But Abram said, “Sovereign Lord, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?”  3  And Abram said, “You have given me no children; so a servant in my household w...

12  The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. 2  “I will make you into a great nation,     and I will bless you; I will make your name great,     and you will be a blessing. 3  I will bless those who bless you,     and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth     will be blessed through you.”

The Tower of Babel 11  Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.  2  As people moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there. 3  They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tarfor mortar.  4  Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that...

6  You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.  7  Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die.  8  But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9  Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved fro...

13  By the first day of the first month of Noah’s six hundred and first year, the water had dried up from the earth. Noah then removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.  14  By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was completely dry. 15  Then God said to Noah,  16  “Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives.  17  Br...

9  This is the account of Noah and his family. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with God.  10  Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham and Japheth. 11  Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence.  12  God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.  13  So God said to Noah, “I am...

When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them,  2  the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose.  3  Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with[ a ] humans forever, for they are mortal[ b ]; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.” 4  The Nephilim were on the earth in those day...

Adam made love to his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, “With the help of the Lord I have brought forth a man.” 2  Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil.  3  In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord.  4  And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of...
