Matthew 15:29–16:12

29
 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
30
 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them
those that were
lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
31
 insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.

32
 Then Jesus called his disciples
unto him,
and said,
I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

33
 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

34
 And Jesus saith unto them,
How many loaves have ye?

And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
35
 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
36
 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake
them,
and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

37
 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken
meat
that was left seven baskets full.
38
 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
39
 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala.

16:
1
 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.

2
 He answered and said unto them,
When it is evening, ye say,
It will be
fair weather: for the sky is red.
3
 
And in the morning,
It will be
foul weather today: for the sky is red and lowring. O
ye
hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not
discern
the signs of the times?
4
 
A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas.
And he left them, and departed.

5
 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6
 Then Jesus said unto them,
Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

7
 And they reasoned among themselves, saying,
It is
because we have taken no bread.
8
 
Which
when Jesus perceived, he said unto them,
O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9
 
Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
10
 
Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11
 
How is it that ye do not understand that I spake
it
not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12
 Then understood they how that he bade
them
not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

Psalm 20:1-9

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1
 The L
ORD
hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;

2
 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

3
 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.

4
 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

5
 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up
our
banners: the L
ORD
fulfil all thy petitions.

6
 Now know I that the L
ORD
saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

7
 Some
trust
in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the L
ORD
our God.

8
 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.

9
 Save, L
ORD
: let the king hear us when we call.

Proverbs 4:20-27

20
 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.

21
 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

22
 For they
are
life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

23
 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it
are
the issues of life.

24
 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

25
 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

26
 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.

27
 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

Genesis 50:1—Exodus 2:10

1
 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.
2
 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.
3
 And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days.

4
 And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
5
 My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again.

6
 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.

7
 And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
8
 and all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father's house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
9
 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company.

10
 And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which
is
beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
11
 And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This
is
a grievous mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called Abel-mizraim, which
is
beyond Jordan.

12
 And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them:
13
 for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.

14
 And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.

15
 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him.
16
 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,
17
 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.

18
 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we
be
thy servants.

19
 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for
am
I in the place of God?
20
 But as for you, ye thought evil against me;
but
God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as
it is
this day, to save much people alive.
21
 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.

22
 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.
23
 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third
generation:
the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph's knees.

24
 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
25
 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.
26
 So Joseph died,
being
an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

1:
1
 Now these
are
the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.
2
 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
3
 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
4
 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
5
 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt
already.
6
 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.
7
 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.

8
 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.
9
 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel
are
more and mightier than we:
10
 come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and
so
get them up out of the land.
11
 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.
12
 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.
13
 And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour:
14
 and they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in mortar, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made them serve,
was
with rigour.

15
 And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one
was
Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:
16
 and he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see
them
upon the stools; if it
be
a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it
be
a daughter, then she shall live.
17
 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
18
 And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?

19
 And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women
are
not as the Egyptian women; for they
are
lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.

20
 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty.
21
 And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.

22
 And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.

2:
1
 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took
to wife
a daughter of Levi.
2
 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he
was a
goodly
child,
she hid him three months.
3
 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid
it
in the flags by the river's brink.
4
 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.

5
 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash
herself
at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
6
 And when she had opened
it,
she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This
is one
of the Hebrews' children.

7
 Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?

8
 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.
9
 And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give
thee
thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
10
 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.
