¹⁸ for a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, have not been cleansed, but have eaten the passover otherwise than it is written; but Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, `Jehovah, who `is' good, doth receive atonement for every one

⁷ and now send back the man's wife, for he `is' inspired, and he doth pray for thee, and live thou; and if thou do not send back, know that dying thou dost die, thou, and all that thou hast.'

¹⁵ and the prayer of the faith shall save the distressed one, and the Lord shall raise him up, and if sins he may have committed, they shall be forgiven to him.

¹⁶ Be confessing to one another the trespasses, and be praying for one another, that ye may be healed; very strong is a working supplication of a righteous man;

²⁸ and let a man be proving himself, and so of the bread let him eat, and of the cup let him drink;

¹⁹ O lord, hear, O Lord, forgive; O Lord, attend and do; do not delay, for Thine own sake, O my God, for Thy name is called on Thy city, and on Thy people.'

⁶⁸ Good Thou `art', and doing good, Teach me Thy statutes.

⁵ For Thou, Lord, `art' good and forgiving. And abundant in kindness to all calling Thee.

⁵ O Jehovah, in the heavens `is' Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness `is' unto the clouds.

⁸ Good and upright `is' Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way.

⁸ And now, take to you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go ye unto My servant Job, and ye have caused a burnt-offering to ascend for you; and Job My servant doth pray for you, for surely his face I accept, so as not to do with you folly, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job.

⁹ And they go -- Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, Zophar the Naamathite -- and do as Jehovah hath spoken unto them; and Jehovah doth accept the face of Job.

²⁵ And all the assembly of Judah rejoice, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the assembly, those coming in from Israel, and the sojourners, those coming in from the land of Israel, and those dwelling in Judah,

¹¹ only, certain from Asher, and Manasseh, and from Zebulun, have been humbled, and come in to Jerusalem.

²¹ `And Thou hast hearkened unto the supplications of Thy servant, and of Thy people Israel, that they pray towards this place, and Thou dost hear from the place of Thy dwelling, from the heavens, and hast hearkened, and forgiven.

²⁰ `And the man who is unclean, and doth not cleanse himself, even that person hath been cut off from the midst of the assembly; for the sanctuary of Jehovah he hath defiled; water of separation is not sprinkled upon him; he `is' unclean.

¹⁸ Jehovah `is' slow to anger, and of great kindness; bearing away iniquity and transgression, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on a third `generation', and on a fourth; --

¹⁹ forgive, I pray Thee, the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Thy kindness, and as Thou hast borne with this people from Egypt, even until now.'

²⁰ And Jehovah saith, `I have forgiven, according to thy word;

¹⁰ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Though any man is unclean by a body or in a distant journey (of you or of your generations), yet he hath prepared a passover to Jehovah;

¹¹ in the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the evenings they prepare it; with unleavened and bitter things they eat it;

¹² they do not leave of till morning; and a bone they do not break in it: according to all the statute of the passover they prepare it.

¹³ `And the man who is clean, and hath not been on a journey, and hath ceased to prepare the passover, even that person hath been cut off from his people; because the offering of Jehovah he hath not brought near, in its appointed season, that man doth bear his sin.

¹⁴ `And when a sojourner sojourneth with you, then he hath prepared a passover to Jehovah, according to the statute of the passover, and according to its ordinance, so he doth; one statute is to you, even to a sojourner, and to a native of the land.'

⁶ and Jehovah passeth over before his face, and calleth: `Jehovah, Jehovah God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth,

⁷ keeping kindness for thousands, taking away iniquity, and transgression, and sin, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on children's children, on a third `generation', and on a fourth.'

⁸ And Moses hasteth, and boweth to the earth, and doth obeisance,

⁹ and saith, `If, I pray Thee, I have found grace in Thine eyes, O my Lord, let my Lord, I pray Thee, go in our midst (for it `is' a stiff-necked people), and thou hast forgiven our iniquity and our sin, and hast inherited us.'

⁴³ And Jehovah saith unto Moses and Aaron, `This `is' a statute of the passover; Any son of a stranger doth not eat of it;

⁴⁴ and any man's servant, the purchase of money, when thou hast circumcised him -- then he doth eat of it;

⁴⁵ a settler or hired servant doth not eat of it;

⁴⁶ in one house it is eaten, thou dost not carry out of the house `any' of the flesh without, and a bone ye do not break of it;

⁴⁷ all the company of Israel do keep it.

⁴⁸ `And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and hath made a passover to Jehovah, every male of his `is' to be circumcised, and then he doth come near to keep it, and he hath been as a native of the land, but any uncircumcised one doth not eat of it;

⁴⁹ one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.'

⁵⁰ And all the sons of Israel do as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron; so have they done.

⁵¹ And it cometh to pass in this self-same day, Jehovah hath brought out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, by their hosts.

¹⁷ And Abraham prayeth unto God, and God healeth Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:

¹⁶ If any one may see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and He shall give to him life to those sinning not unto death; there is sin to death, not concerning it do I speak that he may beseech;
