⁷ Now it was Moses' way to put up the Tent of meeting outside the tent-circle, at some distance away; giving it the name of The Tent of meeting. And everyone desiring to make his prayer to the Lord went to the Tent of meeting outside the tent-circle.

⁴² This is to be a regular burned offering made from generation to generation, at the door of the Tent of meeting before the Lord, where I will come face to face with you and have talk with you.

⁴³ There I will come face to face with the children of Israel, and the Tent will be made holy by my glory

¹ In the days of David they were short of food for three years, year after year; and David went before the Lord for directions. And the Lord said, On Saul and on his family there is blood, because he put the Gibeonites to death.

²⁹ But if in those lands you are turned again to the Lord your God, searching for him with all your heart and soul, he will not keep himself from you.

¹¹ For the bodies of the beasts whose blood is taken into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin are burned outside the circle of the tents.

¹² For this reason Jesus was put to death outside the walls, so that he might make the people holy by his blood.

¹³ Let us then go out to him outside the circle of the tents, taking his shame on ourselves.

⁷ Make a request, and it will be answered; what you are searching for you will get; give the sign, and the door will be open to you:

⁸ Because to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire, and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.

¹² Even though their children have come to growth I will take them away, so that not a man will be there; for their evil-doing will be complete and they will be put to shame because of it.

² But your sins have come between you and your God, and by your evil doings his face has been veiled from you, so that he will give you no answer.

⁶ Make search for the Lord while he is there, make prayer to him while he is near:

⁷ Let the sinner give up his way, and the evil-doer his purpose: and let him come back to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for there is full forgiveness with him.

²⁹ The Lord is far from sinners, but his ear is open to the prayer of the upright.

²² You have seen this, O Lord; be not unmoved: O Lord, be not far from me.

⁸ When you said, Make search for my face, my heart said to you, For your face will I make my search.

¹ Why do you keep far away, O Lord? why are you not to be seen in times of trouble?
