Ang Unang Aklat ng Meqabyan (Ang Unang Aklat ng Etiopeng Macabeo)
1 MEQABYAN
Di tiyak ang may-akda; kabilang sa mga Etiopieng deuterocanonicong aklat, naglalaman ng kasaysayan ng mga bayani at paglaban para sa pananampalataya ng Israel laban sa pang-aapi.
Pangunahing Pahina: Bibliya • Nakaraang Aklat: Enoc • Kasunod na Aklat: 2 Meqabyan
Ang Unang Aklat ng Meqabyan ay binubuo ng 36 kabanata at nagsasalaysay ng dalawang magkaibang pag-aalsa laban sa pamumuno ng mga Seleucid sa Judea. Nagsisimula ito sa kuwento ng isang hari ng Media at Midian na sumasamba sa mga diyos-diyosan, na tinawag na Tseerutsaydan—maaaring tumutukoy kay Antioco IV Epifanes. Isinasalaysay din dito ang isang lalaking mula sa lipi ni Benjamin na si Macabeus at ang tatlo niyang anak na sina Abias, Sela, at Pantera, na tumutol sa pagsamba sa mga diyos-diyosan ng hari. Sa ikalawang bahagi ng aklat, ipinakilala naman sina Juda, Meqabis, at Mebiquias na namuno sa matagumpay na pag-aalsa laban sa malupit na haring si Akrandis ng Midian. Ang natitirang mga kabanata ay hindi na naglalaman ng kasaysayan kundi mga aral tungkol sa kapangyarihan ng Diyos, muling pagkabuhay ng mga patay, kabutihang-asal, at kawalang saysay ng makamundong kapangyarihan, kabilang na ang paglalarawan ng paghatol ng Diyos sa matuwid at di-matuwid.
Kabanata 1
[baguhin]Ito ang mga bagay na sinabi ni Macabeo tungkol sa mga kaharian ng Moab at Medon.
1 May isang lalaking nagngangalang Tseerutsaydan at mahal niya ang kasalanan. Ipinagmamalaki niya ang kanyang maraming kabayo at ang katatagan ng kanyang mga hukbo sa ilalim ng kanyang kapangyarihan.
2 Marami siyang mga pari na naglilingkod sa kanyang mga diyus-diyosan na kanyang sinasamba, at sa kanila siya yumuyuko at nag-aalay ng mga sakripisyo sa gabi at sa araw.
3 Ngunit sa katigasan ng kanyang puso, tila sa kanya na binibigyan siya ng katatagan at kapangyarihan ng mga ito.
4 At sa kanyang puso, tila sa kanya na binibigyan siya ng awtoridad sa lahat ng kanyang pamamahala.
5 At muli, sa panahon ng pagbubuo, tila sa kanya na binibigyan din siya ng lahat ng ninanais na awtoridad.
6 At siya ay mag-aalay ng sakripisyo para sa kanila araw at gabi.
7 Nagtalaga siya ng mga pari na naglilingkod sa kanyang mga diyus-diyosan.
8 Habang sila ay kumakain mula sa maruming sakripisyong iyon, sasabihin nila sa kanya, na nagkukunwaring kumakain ang mga diyus-diyosan sa gabi at araw.
9 Muli, gagawa sila ng ibang mga taong masigasig na katulad nila - upang sila ay makapaghandog at makakain. At muli, gagawa sila ng ibang mga taong masigasig upang sila ay makapaghandog na katulad nila.
10 Ngunit magtitiwala siya sa kanyang mga diyus-diyosan na hindi nakikinabang ni nakakatulong.
11 Sa kanyang maikling panahon - at sa katigasan ng kanyang puso - tila sa kanya na ininis nila siya - na pinakain nila siya at pinutungan siya. Tila sa kanya na ininis nila siya - sapagkat biningi ni Satanas ang kanyang pangangatwiran upang hindi niya makilala ang kanyang manlilikha na ininis siya, na nagdala sa kanya mula sa hindi buhay tungo sa buhay - o upang hindi niya makilala kasama ng kanyang mga kamag-anak ang kanyang manlilikha na ininis siya, na nagdala sa kanya mula sa hindi buhay tungo sa buhay - upang sila ay pumunta sa Gehenna ng Apoy magpakailanman - na hinatulan sa kanila kasama niya na tumatawag sa kanila na mga diyos gayong hindi sila mga diyos.
12 Yamang hindi sila kailanman mabuti, nararapat na tawagin niya silang mga patay.
13 Yamang ang kapangyarihan ni Satanas na nagliligaw sa kanila ay mananahan sa imahen ng diyus-diyos na iyon - at yamang sasabihin niya sa kanila ang kanilang pangangatwiran ayon dito - at yamang ipapakita niya sa kanila ang katulad ng kanilang minahal - hahatulan niya ang mga diyus-diyosan na kanilang pinaniwalaan at pinagkatiwalaan ng mga anak ni Adan - na ang kanilang pangangatwiran ay katulad ng abo.
14 At sila ay mamamangha sa oras na makita nilang tinupad niya ang kanilang inakala para sa kanila - at gagawin nila sa kanya ang ayon sa kanya dahil sa kanyang pag-abot hanggang sa ihain nila ang kanilang mga anak na babae at ang kanilang mga anak na lalaki na ipinanganak mula sa kanilang kalikasan - hanggang sa ibuhos nila ang dugo ng kanilang mga anak na babae at mga anak na lalaki na malinis.
15 Hindi sila nalungkot, sapagkat ikinasiya ni Satanas ang kanilang sakripisyo upang tuparin ang kanilang masamang kasunduan. Nais niya silang hilahin pababa sa Gehenna kasama niya, kung saan walang takas magpakailanman, at kung saan sila ay tatanggap ng pagdurusa.
16 Ngunit si Tseerutsaydan ay palalo. Nagpagawa siya ng limampung diyos-diyosan na ang anyo ay panlalaki at dalawampu na ang anyo ay pambabae.
17 At magmamalaki siya sa mga diyos-diyosan na iyon na walang kabuluhan. Luluwalhatiin niya itong lubos habang nag-aalay siya ng mga handog tuwing umaga at gabi.
18 At mag-uutos siya sa mga tao na mag-alay ng mga handog para sa mga diyos-diyosan—at kakain siya mula sa handog na iyon na dinungisan—at mag-uutos siya sa iba pang mga tao na kumain mula sa handog. Lalo na pumupukaw siya sa kanila upang gumawa ng kasamaan.
19 Mayroon silang limang bahay na itinayo para sa kanilang sarili, pinalamutian ng mga diyus-diyosang gawa sa bakal, tanso, at tingga.
20 Pinalamutian nila ito ng pilak at ginto, at tinakpan nila ito ng mga kurtina at tolda.
21 Nagtalaga sila ng mga tagapag-ingat para sa mga diyus-diyosan at patuloy silang nag-aalay ng apatnapung hayop sa kanila: sampung matatabang baka, sampung baog na baka, sampung matatabang tupa, at sampung baog na kambing, kasama ang mga ibong may pakpak.
22 Naniniwala silang kumakain ang kanilang mga diyus-diyosan, kaya iniharap nila sa kanila ang limampung basket ng ubas at limampung pinggan ng trigo na minasa sa langis.
23 Sinabi nila sa kanilang mga pari na kunin at ibigay ang mga handog sa kanila, at kakainin nila ang pinatay para sa kanila at iinumin ang alak na iniharap sa kanila. Kung hindi sapat, dadagdagan nila ito.
24 Inuutusan nila ang lahat na kumain at uminom mula sa maruming sakripisyo.
25 Ngunit dahil sa kanilang masamang hangarin, nagpadala sila ng mga hukbo sa buong kaharian upang hanapin ang sinumang hindi nag-aalay ng mga sakripisyo o yumuyuko sa mga diyus-diyosan. Dinakip at pinarusahan nila sila ng apoy at espada sa harapan nila, ninakawan ang kanilang pera, sinunog ang kanilang mga tahanan, at sinira ang lahat ng kanilang ari-arian.
26 Sinabi nila, "Sapagkat sila ay maawain at dakila, at galit sila sa atin dahil sa ating kasamaan. Magpapakita ako ng parusa at kapighatian sa sinumang hindi sumasamba sa aking mga diyus-diyosan at nag-aalay ng mga sakripisyo sa kanila."
27 At magpapakita ako sa kanila ng parusa at kapighatian, sapagkat ginalit nila ang Lupa, ang Langit, ang dagat, ang malawak na buwan, ang araw, ang mga bituin, ang mga ulan, ang mga hangin, at lahat ng nabubuhay sa mundong ito upang maging pagkain at masiyahan sa atin."
28 Ngunit ang mga sumasamba sa kanila ay parurusahan ng matinding kapighatian, at hindi ito magiging kaaya-aya sa kanila.
Kabanata 2
[baguhin]1 May isang lalaking ipinanganak mula sa lipi ni Benjamin na ang pangalan ay Macabeo.
2 Mayroon siyang tatlong anak na lalaki na guwapo at lubos na mga mandirigma. Minahal sila ng lahat ng tao sa mga lupaing Midian at Medan na nasa ilalim ng pamamahala ng Haring Seleucid.
3 At gaya ng iniutos sa kanila ng hari nang matagpuan niya sila: "Hindi ba kayo yumuyuko sa mga diyus-diyosan ng Seleucid? Paano ang hindi pag-aalay?"
4 Ngunit kung kayo ay tumanggi, huhulihin namin kayo at dadalhin sa hari, at sisirain namin ang lahat ng inyong pera gaya ng iniutos ng hari."
5 Sumagot sa kanya ang mga guwapong kabataang ito, na sinasabi, "Tungkol sa Kanya na aming pinagpipitaganan, naroon ang aming Amang Lumikha na lumikha ng Lupa at Langit at lahat ng naroroon, ang dagat, buwan at araw, mga ulap, at mga bituin. Siya ang Tunay na Lumikha na aming sinasamba at pinaniniwalaan."
6 At ang mga kabataang ito ng hari ay apat, at ang mga lingkod na may dalang kalasag at sibat ay isang daan.
7 At nang akmang huhulihin nila ang mga banal na ito, nakatakas sila sa kanilang mga kamay, at walang sinumang makakahawak sa kanila, sapagkat ang mga kabataang ito ay lubos na mga mandirigma sa lakas, humahawak ng mga kalasag at sibat.
8 At may isa sa kanila na kayang sakalin at patayin ang isang pantera, at noong panahong iyon, sasakalin niya ito na parang manok.
9 At may isa sa kanila na pumatay ng isang leon sa pamamagitan ng isang bato o hinampas ito ng isang patpat sa isang pagkakataon.
10 At may isa sa kanila na pumatay ng isang daang tao sa isang pormasyon gamit ang isang espada, at ang kanilang pangalan at ang kanilang mga gawa ay gayon. Ito ay tinawag sa buong Babilonia at mga lupaing Moab.
11 At sila ay mga mandirigma sa lakas, at sila ay may bagay na minamahal at kagandahan.
12 At muli, ang kanilang mga katangian at kagandahan ay kahanga-hanga. Gayunpaman, dahil sinasamba nila ang Panginoon at hindi natatakot sa kamatayan, ang kanilang pangangatwiran at kagandahan ang humihigit sa lahat.
13 At nang takutin nila ang mga hukbo, walang sinumang makakahuli sa kanila, ngunit ang mga mandirigma ay nakatakas, patungo sa isang mataas na bundok.
14 At ang mga hukbong iyon ay bumalik sa lungsod at isinara ang tarangkahan ng kuta. Tinakot nila ang mga tao, na sinasabi, "Maliban kung dalhin ninyo ang mga mandirigmang iyon, ang mga Macabeo, susunugin namin ang inyong lungsod sa apoy, at ipapatawag namin ang hari at sisirain ang inyong bansa."
15 At noong panahong iyon, ang mga taong-bayan - mayaman at mahirap, mga anak na babae at lalaki - isang batang namatayan ng ama at ina at isang matandang babae, ang lahat ay nagtulungan at sabay-sabay na sumigaw, at itinayo nila ang kanilang mga leeg patungo sa bundok at sumigaw sa kanila, na sinasabi, "Huwag ninyo kaming sirain at huwag ninyong sirain ang aming bansa para sa amin."
16 Noong panahong iyon, sabay silang umiyak at natakot, na nagmumula sa Panginoon.
17 Ibinabaling ang kanilang mga mukha sa silangan at iniunat ang kanilang mga kamay, sabay silang nakiusap sa Panginoon, "Panginoon, tatanggihan ba namin ang mga taong ito na sumira sa Iyong utos at Iyong batas?"
18 Gayunpaman, naniwala sila sa pilak at ginto at sa bato at kahoy na gawa ng mga kamay ng tao. Ngunit hindi namin mahal na marinig namin ang kriminal na salitang iyon - na hindi naniwala sa Iyong batas," sabi nila.
19 "Yamang Ikaw ang Lumikha na nagliligtas at pumapatay, ginagawa niya ang kanyang sarili na katulad ng lumikha rin sa kanya - na parang siya ang nagbubuhos ng dugo ng tao at kumakain ng laman ng tao."
20 Ngunit hindi namin mahal na makita namin ang kriminal na mukhang iyon ni marinig ang kanyang salita," sabi nila.
21 "Gayunpaman, kung Iyong iuutos sa amin, pupunta kami sa kanya sapagkat naniniwala kami sa Iyo. Kami ay dadaan at ibibigay ang aming mga katawan sa kamatayan. At sa oras na sabihin niya 'Mag-alay, mag-alay para sa aking mga manlilikha,' hindi namin maririnig ang kriminal na salitang iyon."
22 Ngunit naniniwala kami sa Iyo, Panginoon na sumusuri sa mga bato at mga pangangatwiran - ang Lumikha ng aming mga ama - sina Abraham at Isaac at Jacob na gumawa ng Iyong kalooban at matatag na namuhay sa Iyong batas.
23 Sinusuri Mo ang pangangatwiran ng isang tao at tinutulungan ang makasalanan at ang matuwid - at walang sinuman ang nakatago sa Iyo. At ang sinumang nanghimasok ay nahahayag sa Iyong tabi.
24 Ngunit wala kaming ibang Lumikha maliban sa Iyo.
25 Upang maibigay namin ang aming mga katawan sa kamatayan dahil sa Iyong maluwalhating pangalan - gayunpaman, maging kapangyarihan at katatagan at isang kanlungan para sa amin sa gawaing ito na kami ay pinamamahalaan para sa Iyo.
26 At noong panahong 'pumasok ang Israel sa lupaing Gibeon, Iyong dininig ang pakiusap ni Jacob at ngayon ay niluwalhati ang Diyos - nakikiusap kami sa Iyo."
27 "At noong panahong iyon, nakita ang dalawang lalaking may magagandang katangian na nakatayo sa harapan nila. At nang bumaba ang nag-aapoy na mga espada na kasindak-sindak gaya ng kidlat at tumaga sa kanilang mga leeg, sila ay namatay. Ngunit noong panahong iyon, sila ay bumangon at naging mabuti gaya ng dati."
28 Ang kagandahan ng kanilang mga katangian ay naging lubos na kaakit-akit at sila ay sumikat nang higit pa sa araw - at sila ay naging mas guwapo kaysa dati.
Kabanata 3
[baguhin]1 Katulad ninyo, ito ang mga alipin ng Kataas-taasang Panginoon, sina Abya, Seela, at Fentos, na namatay at bumangon, upang kayo rin ay bumangon pagkatapos ng inyong kamatayan, at ang inyong mga mukha ay magniningning na parang araw sa Kaharian ng Langit.
2 At sila ay sumama sa mga lalaking iyon at doon ay tinanggap ang pagkamartir.
3 Noong panahong iyon, sila ay nakiusap, nagpuri, at yumukod sa Panginoon. Hindi sila natakot sa kamatayan, ni sa parusa ng hari.
4 Sila ay lumapit sa mga kabataang iyon at naging maamo na parang mga tupang walang kasamaan. Gayunpaman, hindi sila natakot. Nang makarating sila sa kanila, sila ay dinakip, binugbog, iginapos, hinagupit, at ibinigay sa hari at pinatayo sa harap niya.
5 Sumagot ang hari sa kanila, na sinasabi, "Paano kayong mga matitigas ang ulo na hindi mag-alay at yumukod sa aking mga diyos-diyosan?"
6 Ang mga kapatid na nilinis mula sa kasalanan, pinarangalan, pinili, at pinagpala, at nagniningning na parang mga hiyas na may kahanga-hangang halaga - sina Seela, Abya, at Fentos - ay sumagot sa kanya ng isang salita.
7 Sinabi nila sa hari, na isang salot, "Tungkol sa amin, hindi kami yuyuko ni mag-aalay sa mga maruming diyos-diyosan na walang kaalaman o pangangatwiran."
8 Muli nilang sinabi sa kanya, "Hindi kami yuyuko sa mga diyos-diyosang pilak at ginto, na gawa ng kamay, o bato at kahoy, na walang pangangatwiran, kaluluwa, o kaalaman, at hindi nakikinabang sa kanilang mga kaibigan o nakakasama sa kanilang mga kaaway."
9 Tinanong sila ng hari, "Bakit ninyo ito ginagawa? At yamang alam ninyo kung sino ang humamak sa inyo at sino ang gumawa sa inyo ng mali, bakit ninyo hinahamak ang mga maluwalhating diyos-diyosan?"
10 Sumagot sila sa kanya, na sinasabi, "Yamang sila ay parang isang bagay na walang halaga kumpara sa amin, hahamakin namin sila at hindi namin sila luluwalhatiin."
11 Sinabi sa kanila ng hari, "Parurusahan ko kayo gaya ng inyong masasamang gawa at sisirain ko ang inyong magagandang mukha sa pamamagitan ng paghagupit, matinding kapighatian, at apoy."
12 "Ngayon sabihin ninyo sa akin kung magbibigay kayo o hindi magbibigay ng mga sakripisyo sa aking mga diyus-diyosan. Kung hindi, parurusahan ko kayo ng espada at hagupit."
13 Sumagot sila sa kanya, na sinasabi, "Tungkol sa amin, hindi kami mag-aalay ni yuyuko sa mga maruming diyus-diyosan," at iniutos ng hari na sila ay bugbugin ng isang matabang patpat, hagupitin ng isang latigo, at hatiin hanggang sa makita ang kanilang mga panloob na organo.
14 Pagkatapos nito, sila ay iginapos at ikinulong sa isang kulungan hanggang sa magpasya ang konseho ng hari na parusahan at patayin sila.
15 Sila ay dinala nang walang kabaitan, iginapos, at ikinulong sa isang matibay na bilangguan sa isang bahay-kulungan, at sila ay naupo roon sa loob ng tatlong gabi at tatlong araw.
16 At pagkatapos ng ikatlong araw, iniutos ng hari na ang isang tagapagbalita ay magpahayag at ang mga tagapayo, maharlika, matatanda ng bayan, at mga opisyal ay dapat tipunin.
17 At noong panahong iyon, si Haring Tseerutsaydan ay nakaupo sa isang plasa, at iniutos niya na ang mga pinarangalan, sina Seela, 'Abya, at Fentos, ay dalhin sa harap niya, na sugatan at nakagapos.
18 At sinabi sa kanila ng hari, "Sa loob ng tatlong araw na ito na kayo ay nakaupo, tunay bang kayo ay nagsisi at tumalikod sa inyong dating masasamang pamamaraan?"
19 At sumagot sa kanya ang mga pinarangalang sundalo ng Panginoon, na sinasabi, "Hindi namin sinamba ang mga diyos-diyosang puno ng kasalanan at kasamaan na inyong iniharap sa amin. Hindi namin tatalikuran ang mga batas ng Panginoon."
20 At ang hari, sa kanyang galit, ay nag-utos na sila ay dalhin sa isang mataas na lugar, ang kanilang mga sugat ay muling buksan, at ang kanilang dugo ay dumaloy sa lupa.
21 At iniutos niya na sila ay sunugin ng isang sulo at ang kanilang laman ay maging uling, at ginawa ng kanyang mga lingkod ang iniutos niya. Ngunit sinabi sa kanya ng mga pinarangalang lalaki, "Ikaw, na nakalimutan ang batas ng Panginoon, magsalita ka. Ang aming gantimpala ay magiging kasindaki ng sukat ng iyong parusa."
22 At iniutos niya na ang mga oso, tigre, at leon, mga mababangis na hayop, ay pakawalan sa kanila upang kainin ang kanilang laman kasama ang kanilang mga buto.
23 At iniutos niya sa mga nag-aalaga ng mga hayop na pakawalan sila sa mga lalaki, at ginawa nila ang iniutos sa kanila. Ang mga paa ng mga pinarangalang martir ay iginapos, at sila ay binugbog at muling iginapos ng mga tulos ng tolda.
24 At ang mga hayop ay inihagis sa kanila habang sila ay umaatungal, ngunit nang makarating sila sa mga martir, sila ay bumati at yumukod sa kanila.
25 Sila ay bumalik sa kanilang mga tagapag-alaga habang sila ay umaatungal, at tinakot nila ang kanilang mga tagapag-alaga. Pagkatapos sila ay dinala patungo sa plasa hanggang sa sila ay iharap sa hari.
26 At pitumpu't limang lalaki mula sa hukbo ng kriminal ang napatay doon.
27 Maraming tao ang natakot, ang ilan ay sa paghihirap at ang iba ay sa takot, hanggang sa umalis ang hari sa kanyang trono at tumakas. Ang mga hayop ay nahuli nang may kahirapan at dinala sa kanilang mga tirahan.
28 Sina Seela, 'Abya, at Fentos, dalawang magkapatid, ay dumating at pinalaya ang mga bilanggo mula sa kanilang pagkakagapos. Sinabi nila sa kanila, "Halikayo, tumakas tayo, baka matagpuan tayo ng mga mapagduda at kriminal na ito."
29 At sumagot ang mga martir na iyon sa kanilang mga kapatid, na sinasabi, "Hindi nararapat na tayo ay tumakas pagkatapos nating itayo ang patotoong ito, na parang kayo ay natakot. Tumakas kayo."
30 At sinabi ng mga maliliit na kapatid na iyon, "Kami ay tatayo kasama ninyo sa harap ng hari, at kung kayo ay mamatay, kami ay mamamatay rin kasama ninyo."
31 At pagkatapos nito, ang hari ay nasa balkonahe ng kanyang kaharian at nakita niya na ang mga pinarangalang lalaking ito ay pinalaya at ang lahat ng limang magkakapatid ay magkakasamang nakatayo. Tinanong ng mga pinunong iyon na nagtrabaho at nagparusa sa mga hukbo kung sila ay magkakapatid at sinabi nila sa hari. Nagalit ang hari at umungal na parang isang baboy-ramo sa ilang.
32 At hanggang sa payuhan ang hari sa pamamagitan ng pera upang parusahan ang lahat ng limang magkakapatid, iniutos niya na sila ay dakpin at idagdag sa bahay-kulungan. Inilagay nila sila sa isang bahay-kulungan, iginapos sila sa matibay na bilangguan nang walang kabaitan gamit ang isang guwang na tangkay.
33 At sinabi ni Haring Tseerutsaydan, "Pinagod ako ng mga kabataang ito na nagkamali. Ano ang dapat nilang matibay na pangatwiranan? At ang mga gumagawa ng masama ay katulad ng mga may kapangyarihan at katatagan. Kung sasabihin ko, 'Sila ay babalik,' gagawin nilang masama ang kanilang pangangatwiran."
34 At dadalhin ko sa kanila ang hirap gaya ng kanilang masamang sukat. At susunugin ko ang kanilang laman sa apoy hanggang sa maging uling na abo, at pagkatapos ay ikakalat ko ang kanilang abo na parang alikabok sa mga bundok."
35 At pagkatapos niyang sabihin ito, naghintay siya ng tatlong araw at iniutos na dalhin ang mga pinarangalang lalaking iyon. Nang lumapit sa kanya ang mga pinarangalang lalaking iyon, iniutos niya na sunugin ang apoy sa loob ng malaking hurno ng hukay at idagdag ang isang gawang masama sa apoy, kung saan nila pinakuluan ang isang pusa, ang taba at mga sapindaceae, bula ng dagat at dagta, at asupre.
36 At nang magliyab ang apoy sa hukay, ang mga mensahero ay nagpunta sa hari at sinabi, "Ginawa namin ang iniutos mo sa amin. Ipadala mo ang mga lalaking idadagdag."
37 At iniutos niya na sila ay tanggapin at ihagis sa hukay ng apoy, at ginawa ng mga kabataan ang iniutos sa kanila ng hari. Nang pumasok ang mga pinarangalang lalaking iyon sa apoy, ibinigay nila ang kanilang mga kaluluwa sa Panginoon.
38 At nang makita ng mga taong naghagis sa kanila, tinanggap at dinala ng mga anghel ang kanilang mga kaluluwa sa Hardin kung saan naroon sina Isaac, Abraham, at Jacob, kung saan matatagpuan ang mga matuwid.
Kabanata 4
[baguhin]1 Nang mahatulan ng kamatayan ang mga kriminal, iniutos niya na ang kanilang laman ay sunugin sa apoy hanggang sa maging abo, at pagkatapos ay ikalat sa hangin. Gayunpaman, hindi nasunog ng apoy ang buhok sa gilid ng mga bangkay. Kaya, sila ay pinalayo mula sa hukay.
2 Muli, pinagliyaban nila ang mga ito mula umaga hanggang gabi, ngunit hindi sila nasunog ng apoy. Pagkatapos ay sinabi nila, "Ihagis natin ang kanilang mga bangkay sa dagat."
3 Kaya, ginawa nila ang iniutos ng hari, at inihagis sila sa dagat, maging ang pagdaragdag ng malalaking bato, mga batong-apuyan na bakal, at isang gilingang bato na iginagapang ng asno sa pamamagitan ng pag-ikot. Gayunpaman, hindi sila pinalubog ng dagat, sapagkat inalalayan sila ng Espiritu ni YAH. Lumutang sila sa dagat, ngunit hindi lumubog. Ang malisya na pinukaw laban sa kanila ay nabigong sirain sila.
4 "Ang kanilang kamatayan ay nagpahirap sa akin nang higit pa sa kanilang buhay. Ihagis ko ang kanilang mga bangkay sa mga hayop upang kainin nila ang mga ito. Ngunit ano ang gagawin ko?" sabi niya.
5 Ginawa ng mga kabataan ang iniutos niya. Hindi ginalaw ng mga buwitre at mga hayop ang mga bangkay. Tinakpan ng mga ibon at mga buwitre ang mga ito ng kanilang mga pakpak mula sa nakapapasong araw, at ang mga bangkay ng limang martir ay nakaupo sa loob ng labing-apat na araw.
6 Nang makita sila, ang kanilang mga katawan ay nagniningning na parang araw, at pinalibutan ng mga anghel ang kanilang mga bangkay na parang liwanag na pumapalibot sa Tolda.
7 Humingi siya ng payo, ngunit hindi niya alam kung ano ang gagawin. Sa wakas, humukay siya ng libingan at inilibing ang mga bangkay ng limang martir.
8 Nang gabing iyon, habang ang haring nakalimot sa batas ni YAH ay nakahiga sa kama, ang limang martir ay nagpakita sa kanya, nakatayo at binabagabag siya ng mga espada.
9 Akala niya ay pumasok sila sa kanyang bahay sa gabi upang gumawa ng krimen. Nang magising siya mula sa kanyang pagkakatulog, natakot siya at tumakas mula sa kanyang silid-tulugan patungo sa bulwagan. Natakot siya na papatayin nila siya dahil sa krimen na akala niya ay ginawa nila laban sa kanya. Nanginig ang kanyang mga tuhod sa takot.
10 "Mga panginoon ko, ano ang gusto ninyo? Tungkol sa akin, ano ang dapat kong gawin para sa inyo?" tanong niya.
11 Sumagot sila, "Hindi ba kami ang mga sinunog mo sa apoy at iniutos mong ihagis sa dagat? Iningatan ni YAH ang aming mga katawan dahil naniwala kami sa Kanya. Hindi Niya hinayaan na sirain mo kami. Yamang ang mga naniniwala sa Kanya ay hindi mapapahamak, ang kaluwalhatian at papuri ay nararapat kay YAH. Kami na naniwala sa Kanya ay hindi napahiya sa kapighatian."
12 "Hindi ko alam na darating sa akin ang ganitong parusa. Anong gantimpala ang dapat kong ibigay sa inyo para sa kasamaang ginawa ko sa inyo?" tanong niya.
13 "At ngayon, ihiwalay mo sa akin ang gantimpalang ibinibigay ko sa inyo - baka kunin ninyo ang aking katawan sa kamatayan at ibaba ang aking katawan patungo sa Sheol habang ako ay buhay pa."
14 "Sapagkat nagkasala ako sa inyo, patawarin ninyo ang aking kasalanan, sapagkat dahil sa batas ni YAH kaya ako tumanggap ng gayong kabaitan," sabi niya sa kanila.
15 At sumagot sa kanya ang mga pinarangalang martir, na sinasabi, "Dahil sa pinsalang idinulot mo sa amin, hindi ka namin gagantihan ng pinsala. Si YAH ang nagdadala ng kahirapan sa isang kaluluwa, at Siya ang hahatol sa iyo nang naaayon."
16 Gayunpaman, kami ay iniligtas alang-alang sa iyo, dahil tila sa iyo ay pinatay mo kami. Nagpakita ka sa amin ng kabaitan sa kabila ng aming maliit na bilang at kawalan ng kakayahang mangatwiran.
17 Ngunit ikaw at ang mga pari ng iyong mga diyus-diyosan ay bababa sa Gehenna, kung saan walang takas.
18 Kahabag-habag ang iyong mga diyus-diyosan, na iyong pinagpipitaganan, na tinalikuran si YAH na nagalit sa iyo nang ikaw ay hamakin na parang dura. Kahabag-habag ka na sumasamba sa kanila, at hindi mo nakikilala si YAH na nagalit sa iyo at nagdala sa iyo mula sa kamatayan tungo sa buhay. Hindi ba ikaw na nakatayo rito ngayon ay parang usok na mawawala bukas?
19 Tinanong sila ng hari, "Ano ang iniuutos ninyo sa akin na gawin ko para sa inyo, yamang nagpakita kayo sa akin ng gayong pagmamahal?"
20 Sumagot sila, "Iligtas mo ang iyong sarili mula sa pagpasok sa Gehenna ng Apoy, ngunit hindi mo kami maililigtas. Kami ang nagtuturo sa iyo."
21 "Ang iyong mga diyus-diyosan ay gawa sa pilak at ginto, bato at kahoy. Wala silang pang-unawa o kaalaman, at sila ay gawa ng mga kamay ng tao."
22 "Hindi sila pumapatay o nagliligtas, nakikinabang sa kanilang mga kaibigan o nakakasama sa kanilang mga kaaway, nagpaparangal o nagpapababa, nagpapayaman o nagpapahirap. Inililigaw ka nila sa pamamagitan ng awtoridad ng mga demonyo, na hindi nagnanais ng kaligtasan ng sinuman, ngunit hindi nag-aalis o nagtatanim ng anuman."
23 "Lalo na nilang hindi ninanais ang kaligtasan ng mga taong katulad mo, na matigas ang puso at tila galit sila sa iyo, kahit na ikaw ang gumawa sa kanila."
24 "Yamang si Satanas at ang mga demonyo ay nanahanan sa kanila, gagantihan ka nila ng parehong pagmamahal na ipinakita mo sa kanila, at lulunurin ka nila sa dagat ng Gehenna."
25 "Ngunit ikaw, itigil mo ang kamaliang ito at hayaan mong ito ang maging aming gantimpala. Kahit na kami ay patay na, pakikinabangan namin ang aming mga kaluluwa sa pamamagitan ng pagsamba sa aming Lumikha na si YAH," sabi nila sa kanya.
26 Nataranta at lubos na namangha ang hari. Nang bunutin ng lahat ng lima ang kanilang mga espada, natakot siya para sa kanyang buhay at yumukod sa kanila.
27 "Kung gayon ay nalaman ko na kahit pagkatapos ng kamatayan, ang mga alabok ay tunay na babangon. Tungkol sa akin, kaunting panahon na lamang ang natitira bago ang aking kamatayan," sabi niya.
28 Mula nang araw na iyon, hindi na sinunog ng hari ang mga bangkay ng mga Tseerutsaydan na lubos na palalo, at sila ay itinago sa kanyang paningin.
29 Yamang marami silang nailigaw sa loob ng maraming panahon, ang mga mananamba sa diyus-diyosan ay nangatwiran sa kamalian at nailigaw ang marami pang iba na katulad nila hanggang sa tumigil sila sa pagsunod sa pagsamba kay YAH. Hindi lamang sila ang nagkamali.
30 Inihain nila ang kanilang mga anak na babae at lalaki sa mga demonyo, na nagsasagawa ng pang-aakit at mga kaguluhan bilang kanilang pangangatwiran. Itinuro ito sa kanila ni Satanas, upang maisagawa nila ang pang-aakit at mga kaguluhan na kinasusuklaman ni YAH.
31 Pinakasalan nila ang kanilang mga ina at inabuso ang kanilang mga tiyahin at kapatid na babae, dinungisan ang kanilang mga katawan habang ginagawa ang lahat ng maruming gawaing ito. Pinagtibay ni Satanas ang pangangatwiran ng mga baluktot na taong ito, at sinabi nila, "Hindi na kami babalik."
32 Ngunit ang mga Tseerutsaydan, na hindi nakakaalam ng galit ni YAH, ay lubos na palalo at nagmalaki sa kanilang mga diyus-diyosan.
33 Kung sasabihin nila, "Paano ibibigay ni YAH ang Kaharian sa mga taong hindi nakakakilala sa Kanya sa BATAS at sa Pagsamba?" Ganap silang babalik sa Kanya sa pagsisisi, at sinusubok Niya sila sa dahilang ito.
34 Ngunit kung sila ay ganap na magsisisi, mamahalin Niya sila at iingatan ang kanilang Kaharian. Gayunpaman, kung sila ay tumanggi, ang apoy ng Gehenna ang magpaparusa sa kanila magpakailanman.
35 Nararapat sa isang hari na katakutan ang galit ni YAH gaya ng reputasyon ng kanyang kaharian, at nararapat sa isang hukom na pamahalaan ng galit ni YAH habang humahatol nang matuwid, gaya ng reputasyon ng kanyang Pamamahala.
36 Nararapat sa mga matatanda, mga pinuno, mga sugo, at maliliit na hari na utusan ng mga natatakot sa galit ni YAH ayon sa sukat ng kasaganaan ng kanilang kaharian.
37 Si YAH ang Panginoon ng Langit at Lupa, na nagpapasimula ng lahat ng galit, sapagkat walang ibang Panginoon sa Langit o Lupa na nagpapahirap o nagpapayaman. Siya ang nagpaparangal at nagpapababa.
Kabanata 5 (Corrected Text but not yet translated)
[baguhin]1. "One of the sixty warriors was proud, but JAH made his body swell from his foot up to his head with a spoonful of sulfur, and he died in a plague.
2. And again, Korah, who built an iron bed, was proud of his power and abundance, but JAH hid him in death.
3. And again, Nebuchadnezzar was proud, saying, 'There is no other king besides me, and I am the creator who makes the sun rise in this world.' He spoke thus out of his arrogant abundance.
4. And JAH separated him from people and sent him to the wilderness for seven years, and he made his fortune with the birds of heaven and the beasts of the wilderness until he knew that JAH was the one who had humbled him.
5. And when he knew Him in worship, He returned him to his kingdom. Who is it that was not of the earth and was boldly proud of JAH, who humbled him?
6. How about those who demolished His law and His order, and whom the earth did not swallow?
7. And you, Zerubbabel, love that you might be proud of your Creator, but again, you have that He might destroy you like them and might lower you to the grave out of your arrogance.
8. And again, after they entered Sheol, where there is grinding of teeth and mourning, that was the fulfillment of darkness, you have that He might lower you to the deep pit of Gehenna, where there are no exits forever.
9. As for you, you are a man who will die and be destroyed tomorrow, like arrogant kings who were like you, who left this world living.
10. As for me, I say, 'You are demolished ruins, but you are not JAH, for JAH is the one who created the earth and heaven and you.'
11. He downbases the arrogant ones and honors those who are downbased. He gives firmness to those who are weary.
12. He kills the well ones and raises up the persons who were on the earth, who were dead and buried in a grave.
13. And He sends slaves forth free in life from sin rulership.
14. O King Zerubbabel, why do you boast in your defiled idols who have no benefit?
15. But JAH created the earth and heaven and the great seas. He created the moon and the sun, and He prepared the eras.
16. Man grazes in his field, and he plows until it is dusk, and the stars of heaven remain firm by His word.
17. And He calls all in heaven. There is nothing done without Jah knowing it.
18. He commanded the angels in heaven to serve Him and to praise His glorified name. And the angels are sent to all persons who inherit life.
19. Raphael, who was a servant, was sent to Tobit, and he saved Tobiah from death in Raguel's country.
20. And Holy Michael was sent to Gideon, that he might draw his attention by money, that he might destroy idolatrous persons. And he was sent to the prophet Moses at the time he made Israel cross the Red Sea.
21. As only JAH has said, He led them. There was no different idol with them.
22. And He sent them forth to crops on the earth.
23. And He fed them His plantation grain. As He totally loved them, He cherished them, feeding them honey that firmed up like a rock.
24. And that you might totally keep His kindreds by what is due, and that you might do JAH's accord, who humbled you, He crowned you, giving you authority over the four kingdoms.
25. For He has crowned you, making you loftier than all, and your Creator totally crowned you that you might love JAH.
26. And it is proper that you might love your Creator JAH like He loved you, like He trusted you over all the people. And you, do JAH's accord that your era might abound in this world, and that He might live with you in support.
27. And do JAH's accord that He might stand for you, being a guardian over your enemies, and that He might seat you on your throne, and that He might hide you in His wing of support.
28. As for you, if you don't know, JAH chose and crowned you over Israel, like He chose Saul from Israel's children when he kept his father's donkeys. And He crowned him over his kindreds in Israel, and he sat with Israel on his throne.
29. And He gave him a lofty fortune, separating him from his kindreds. JAH crowned you over His kindreds. As for henceforth onward, check and keep His kindreds.
30. As JAH has appointed you over them, that you might kill and might save, keep them in evil things, those who work goodly things and those who work evil things on a goodly thing," He told him.
31. "And as JAH has appointed you over all that you might do His accord, be it while you whipped or while you saved, pay them evil work, those who work goodly work and those who work goodly work and evil work.
32. For you are a slave of JAH, who rules all in heaven, and you, do JAH's accord that He might do your accord for you in all you thought and in all you begged while you wheedled before Him.
33. There is none who rules Him, but He rules all.
34. There is none who appointed Him, but He appointed all.
35. There is none who dismisses Him, but He dismisses all.
36. There is none who reproaches Him, but He reproaches all.
37. There is none who makes Him diligent, but He makes all diligent. As heaven and earth rulership are for Him, there is none who escapes from His authority. All are revealed alongside Him, yet there is none hidden from His face.
38. He sees all, but there is none who sees Him. He hears the person's prayer who prays to Him, saying 'Save me,' for He has created man in His pattern, and He accepts his plea.
39. As He is a king who lives until eternity, He feeds all from His unchanging nature."
Kabanata 6 (Corrected Text but not yet translated)
[baguhin]1. As He crowns true kings who do His accord, the kings write a straight thing because of Him.
2. As they have done JAH's accord, He shall shine in a light that isn't examined by Isaac, Abraham, Jacob, Solomon, David, and Hezekiah lodging in the Garden where all the beautiful kings whose lodging was light.
3. Heaven's hall is what totally shines, yet Earth's halls aren't like Heaven's hall. Its floor, with features of silver, gold, and jewel features, is clean.
4. And its totally shining features are unexamined by a person's reasoning. Heaven's hall shines like jewels.
5. Like JAH, who is a nature knower, knew, the Heaven's hall that He created is unexamined by a person's reasoning and shines in total light. Its floor, worked in silver, gold, jewels, white silk, and blue silk, is clean.
6. It is quite totally beautiful like this.
7. Righteous ones who are firm in religion and virtue are those who shall inherit it in JAH's charity and pardon.
8. And there is welfare water that flows from it, and it totally shines like the sun. There is a light tent within it, and it is encircled by graceful perfume.
9. A garden with beautiful and beloved fruit, with different features and tastes, is around the house. There is oil and a grape place there, and it is totally beautiful, and its fruit fragrance is sweet.
10. When a fleshly, bloody person enters it, his soul would separate from his flesh from the irie delights abundance that are in it, arising from its fragrance flavor.
11. Beautiful kings who did JAH's accord shall be irie there. Their honor and place are known in the Kingdom of Heaven that lives firm forever, where welfare is found.
12. He showed that their lordship on Earth was famed and honored, and that their lordship in Heaven was famed and honored. They shall be honored and lofty in Heaven, like those who honor them and bow to them in this world. If they work goodly work in this world, they shall be irie.
13. But kings who were evil in their rule and their kingdoms that JAH gave them, they don't judge true by what is due. They have ignored the destitute and poor ones' cries. They don't judge truth and save the refugee and the wronged child whose father and mother died on him.
14. They don't save the destitute and poor ones from the wealthy hand that robs them. They don't divide and give from their food and satisfy those who hunger. They don't divide and give from their drink and give drink to those who thirst. They didn't turn their ears to the poor one's cry.
15. And He shall take them to Gehenna, which is a dark ending. When the lofty day arrives upon them, when JAH shall come, and when His wrath is done upon them, like David spoke in his praises, "Lord, don't chastise me in Your judgment, and don't admonish me in Your chastisement," their problems and their debasement shall abound like their fame's abundance measure.
16. When nobles and kings who rule this world in this world, there are persons who didn't keep Your law.
17. But JAH, who rules all, is there in Heaven. All persons' souls and all persons' welfare have been seized by His authority. He is the one who gives honor to persons who glorify Him, for He totally rules all, and He loves the persons who love Him.
18. As He is the Earth and Heaven Lord, He examines and knows what kidneys transport and what a reasoning thought. And for a person who begs to Him with a pure reasoning, He shall give him his plea reward.
19. He shall destroy powerful ones' arrogance, who work evil work upon the child whose mother and father died on him, and upon old daughters.
20. It isn't by your power that you seized this kingdom. It isn't by your ability that you sat on this throne. He loved to test you thus, that it be possible for you to rule like Saul, who ruled his kindreds in that season, and He seated you on a kingdom throne. Yet it isn't by your power that you seized this kingdom. It is when He tested you like Saul, who ignored the prophet Samuel's word and JAH's word, and didn't serve His army nor Amalek's king. Yet it isn't by your ability that you seized this kingdom.
21. And JAH told the prophet Samuel, "Go, and as they have saddened Me by demolishing the law and worshiping the idols and bowing to the idol and by their mosques and by all their hated works without benefit, tell Saul, 'Go to Amalek's country and destroy their hosts and all the kings, from persons up to livestock.'"
22. Because they saddened JAH, He sent Saul that he might destroy them.
23. But he saved the king from death, and he saved many livestock, beauties, daughters, and handsome youths from death. As he scorned My thing and as he didn't hear My command, JAH told the prophet Samuel, "Go and divide his kingdom."
24. Because he stead, anoint Jesse's child David that he might reign over Israel.
25. But upon him adjourn, a demon who will strangle and cast him.
26. As he refused if I-man gave him a kingdom that he might do My accord, upon the time he refused Me to do My accord, I-man dismissed him from his kingdom that is due to him. But you, go and tell him, saying, "Will you thus ignore JAH who crowned you over His kindreds Israel, who seated you on His lordship throne?"
27. But you, tell him, "You didn't know JAH who gave around this much honor and famousness," He told him.
28. And the prophet Samuel went to King Saul and entered, sitting at a dinner table, and when Amalek's king Agag had sat on his left.
29. "Why did you totally ignore JAH who commanded you that you might destroy the livestock and persons?" He told him.
30. And at that time, the king feared and arose from his throne and told Samuel, "Return with him, seized his clothes." But Samuel refused to return. Samuel's clothes were torn.
31. And Samuel told Saul, "JAH divided your kingdom."
32. And again Saul told Samuel before the people, "Honor me and atone my sin before JAH, that He might forgive me." And as he feared JAH's word who irated him, but as he didn't fear the king who died, Samuel refused to return in his word.
33. Because of this thing, he pierced Amalek's king Agag before he swallowed what he chewed.
34. Because he demolished JAH's law, and because He was the King of Kings who rules all, JAH struck upon his head a king who worked sin, for it didn't shame him.
35. For He is all the iration Lord who dismisses all the nobles and kings' authority who don't fear Him. But there are none who rule Him.
36. Like Like He spoke, saying, "David's kindred shall go while it was famed and honored, but Saul's kindred shall go while it was debased." He destroyed the kingdom from his child and from Saul.
37. Because it saddened Him, and because He destroyed the criminals who saddened Him by their evil work, JAH revenged and destroyed Saul's kindred children, for a person who doesn't revenge JAH's enemy, he is JAH's enemy.
38. When it is possible for him to revenge and destroy, and when he has authority, a person who doesn't revenge and destroy the sinner and doesn't revenge and destroy a person who doesn't keep JAH's law, as he is JAH's enemy, He destroyed Saul's kindred children.
Kabanata 7 (Corrected Text but not yet translated)
[baguhin]1 And whether you are a king or a ruler, what important thing are you?
2 Isn't it JAH who created you, bringing you from not living to living, so that you might do His will and might live strengthened by His command and might fear His judgment? Just as you trouble your slaves and govern over them, so also there is JAH who troubles you and governs over you.
3 Just as you beat without mercy those who committed sin, so also there is JAH who will strike you and lower you toward Gehenna where there are no exits until eternity.
4 Just as you whip him who was not ruled by you and didn't bring a tribute to you, why is it that you don't offer a tribute to JAH?
5 Since He is the One who created you so that you love those who might fear you, and who crowned you over all creation so that you might keep His people faithful, why is it that you don't fear your Creator JAH?
6 Judge by what is just and true, just as JAH appointed you; yet do not show partiality or favor to small or great. Whom will you fear besides Him? Keep His worship and the Nine Commandments.
7 Just as Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, "I have presented water and fire to you; extend your hand toward what you love," do not go either right or left.
8 Hear His word that I tell you, so that you might hear His word and might do His command, lest you say, "It is beyond the sea or beyond the deep or beyond the river; who will bring it to me so that I might see it and might hear His word and might do His command?"
9 Lest you say, "Who will go up to Heaven again and bring down that word of JAH to me so that I might hear and do it?" The word of JAH is what has approached; behold, for you to teach it with your mouth and give alms by it with your hand.
10 And you did not hear your Creator JAH unless you heard His Book, and you did not love Him nor keep His command unless you kept His Law.
And you will enter Gehenna forever if you do not love His command and unless you do the will of JAH, who honored and made you famous, separating you from all your people so that you might keep them faithful; you will enter Gehenna forever.
11 He made you above all, and He crowned you over all His people so that you might rule His people faithfully by what is just, while you remembered the name of your Creator who created you and gave you a kingdom.
12 There are those whom you whip for wronging you, and there are those whom you pardon while you consider the work of JAH, and there are those for whom you judge by what is just, straightening your reasoning.
13 And do not show favor or partiality when they argue before you, for earthly possessions are your wealth. Do not accept a bribe so that you might pardon the sinner and wrong the innocent person.
14 If you do His will, JAH will multiply your days in this world for you; but if you sadden Him, He will diminish your days.
15 Consider that you will rise after you die, and that you will be examined standing before Him for all the work you have done, whether it be good or evil.
16 If you do good work, you will live in a Garden in the Kingdom of Heaven, in houses where kind kings live and where Light fills. For JAH does not shame your lordship or authority; but if you do evil work, you will live in See'ol Gehenna where evil kings live.
17 But when you see your feared fame, your warriors' reward, your hanging shield and spear, and when you see your horses and your troops under your authority and those who beat drums and people who play the harp before you...
18 But when you see all this, you make your reasoning lofty, and you stiffen your collar of reasoning, and you do not think of JAH who gave you all this honor; however, when He told you, "Quit all this," you are not one who quits it.
19 For you have totally neglected the appointment He appointed you, and He shall give your lordship to another.
20 For death shall suddenly come upon you, and judgment shall be done in the resurrection time, and as all human work shall be examined, He shall totally investigate and judge you.
21 There are none who will honor this world's kings, for because He is the True Judge, in judgment time poor and wealthy will stand together. This world's nobles' crowns in which they boast shall fall.
22 Judgment is prepared, and a soul shall quake; at that time sinners' and righteous ones' work shall be examined.
23 And there are none who shall be hidden. When a daughter arrived for birthing, and when the fetus in her belly arrived for being birthed, just as she cannot prevent her womb, Earth also cannot prevent her lodgers that are upon her; she will return.
24 And just as clouds cannot prevent rain unless they take and rain toward the place JAH commanded them, for JAH's word has created all, bringing them from not living to living, and for JAH's word again has brought all toward a grave; and all likewise - after resurrection time arrived - it is not possible that dead persons will not rise.
25 Just as Moses spoke, saying, "It is by words that proceed from JAH's tongue; yet it is not only by grain that a person is saved"; and JAH's word again shall arouse all persons from graves.
26 Behold, it was known that dead persons shall arise by JAH's word.
27 And again JAH said thus in Deuteronomy because of nobles and kings who do His will, "As the day has arrived when they are counted for destruction, I shall avenge and destroy them on the day when judgment is judged and at the time when their feet stumble," He said.
28 And again JAH told those who know His judgment, "Know that I was your Creator JAH, and that I kill and I save."
29 "I chastise in tribulation and I pardon; I lower toward See'ol and again I send forth toward the Garden, and there are none who shall escape from My authority," He told them.
30 JAH said thus because of nobles and kings who did not keep His Law, "As earthly kingdoms are passing, and as they pass from morning until evening, keep My order and My Law so that you might enter toward the Kingdom of Heaven that lives strengthened forever," He said.
31 For JAH's calling of righteous ones is for glory, and of sinners for tribulation; He will make the sinner wretched but will honor righteous ones.
32 He will dismiss the person who did not do His will, but He will appoint the person who did His will.
Kabanata 8 (Corrected Text but not yet translated)
[baguhin]1 Hear me—let me tell you how dead persons shall arise. They shall plant a plant, and it will be fertile, and grapes shall send forth vines. As JAH shall bring the fruit and imbibe its sap, they shall cast wine from it.
2 Understand that the plant you planted was small, but today it sent forth tips, fruit, and leaves.
3 JAH gave it root to drink from the Earth and Water—from both.
4 But Him fed its wood from fire and wind. Roots give leaves Water to drink, and Earth gives firmness to woods.
5 But the soul that JAH enraged made them bear fruit among themselves, and dead persons arising are likewise.
6 At the time the soul was separated from the flesh, as each of their selves had gone, Him said, "Gather souls from the four natures—from Earth and Water, wind and and fiyah."
7 But Earth nature lived firmed up in its nature and became Earth, and Water nature lived firmed up in its nature and became Water.
8 And wind nature lived firmed up in its nature and became wind, and fiyah nature lived firmed up in its nature and became a hot fiyah.
9 But a soul that JAH separated from flesh returned toward its Creator until Him raised it up, united with flesh, at the time Him loved. Him placed it in a Garden in the place Him loved.
10 Him placed righteous souls in a Light house in the Garden. But that Him might send away sinners' souls, Him also placed them in a darkness house in Sheol until the time when Him loved.
11 JAH told the prophet Ezekiel, "Call souls from the four corners, that them might be gathered and be one limb."
12 At the time Him spoke in one Word, saying thus, the souls were gathered from the four corners.
13 And Water nature brought verdure, and again Fire nature brought fire.
14 And again Earth nature brought Earth, and wind nature brought wind.
15 And JAH brought a soul from the Garden place where Him had placed it. They were gathered by one Word, and a Resurrection was made.
16 And again I shall show you the example that is alongside you. When the day becomes dusk, you sleep; when the night dawns, you rise from your bedding. But at the time you slept, it is your death example.
17 And at the time you awoke, it is your arising example. But the night, when all persons sleep whose physiques were dark—for darkness has covered them—is this world's example.
18 But the morning light—when darkness is eliminated and when light is in all the world and when persons arise and go toward the field—is the dead persons' example.
19 And this Kingdom of Heaven where man is renewed is like unto this. The dead persons' Resurrection is like unto this. As this world is passing, it is the night example.
20 And just as David spoke, saying, "Him placed Him example in the Sun"—as the Sun shines at the time it rose—it is a Kingdom of Heaven example.
21 And just as the Sun shines in this world today, at the time Christ comes, Him shall shine like the Sun in the Kingdom of Heaven that is new. As Him has said, "I am a Sun that doesn't set and a Torch that isn't extinguished." Him JAH is its Light.
22 And Him shall quickly arouse the dead persons again. I shall bring one example for you again from your food that you sow and by which you are saved. And whether it be a wheat kernel or a barley kernel or a lentil kernel or all human seeds sown upon Earth, there is none that grows unless it were demolished and rotten.
23 And just as the person's flesh you observe—at the time it was demolished and rotten—Earth consumed its stoutness with the hide.
24 And at the time Earth consumed its stoutness, it grew, being around a kernel's seventh. JAH gave a cloud that seized rain as Him loved, and roots grew upon Earth and sent forth leaves.
25 And if it were demolished and rotten, it cannot grow. But after it grew, it sent forth many buds.
26 And by JAH Accord, fruit is given for those buds that grew, and Him clothes its stoutness in straw.
27 Observe how the measure that the seed kernel you sowed abounded, yet the silver and the leaf—the ear and the straw—are not counted for you.
28 Don't be a dull one who doesn't know, and observe your seed that it abounded. And all likewise—think that dead persons shall receive the arising that they will arise, and their hardship according to their Work.
29 Hear me—that if you sow wheat, it won't grow being barley, nor being wheat if you sow barley. And let me tell you again that it won't grow: if you sow wheat, will you gather barley? If you sow watercress, will you gather linseed?
30 How about from plants of a certain kind? If you plant figs, will it really grow for you as nuts? How about if you plant almonds, will it grow for you as grapes?
31 If you plant the sweet fruit, will it grow for you as bitter? How about if you plant the bitter fruit, is it possible for it to be sweet?
32 How about all likewise? If a sinner is dead, is it possible to arise being righteous in Resurrection time? How about if a righteous person is dead, is it possible to arise being a sinner in Resurrection time? Every one shall receive his hardship according to his Work, yet he will receive his hardship according to his sin and his hand's Work, yet there is none who will be convicted by his companion's sin.
33 A highland tree is planted, and it sends forth long branches. It will totally dry up, yet unless Heaven rained, its leaves won't be verdant.
34 And the cedar will be uprooted from its roots unless summer rain alighted upon it.
35 And all likewise—dead persons won't arise unless welfare dew alighted for them, being commanded from JAH.
==Kabanata 9 (Corrected Text but not yet translated)
1 Unless highland mountains and Gilboa regions received a pardon, commanded by JAH, they would not grow grass for beasts and animals.
2 And Elam mountains and Gilead mountains will not give verdant leaves for sheep and goats—nor for oribi and animals in the wilderness—nor for ibexes and hartebeest.
3 And likewise, pardon and dew, commanded by JAH, did not alight for doubters and criminals who profited from error and crime beforehand. Dead persons will not arise, and Damas and Caphros, who worship idols, dig up roots, and instigate things,
4 And those who dig roots and practice sorcery and make persons battle.
5 And those who lust, having departed from the LAW—and the people of Miedon and Athens who believe in their idols—and those who play and sing for them while they beat violins and drums and strummed harps—they will not arise unless pardon's dew alighted for them, commanded by JAH.
6 These are who will be convicted on the day when dead persons arise and when the Definite Judgment is done. Yet persons who save themselves and who lust after their own hand's Work—they err by their idols.
7 You wasteful, dull-hearted one—does it seem to you that dead persons will not arise?
8 At the time a trumpet was blown by the Archangel Michael's tongue—that dead ones arise then—as you will not remain in the grave without arising—do not think a thing that is thus.
9 Hills and mountains shall be level and shall be a cleared path.
10 And Resurrection shall be done for all fleshy ones.

[baguhin]1 However, if it weren't thus, it is that former persons might be buried in their fathers' grave, beginning from Adam, beginning from Seth and Abel, Shem and Noah, Isaac and Abraham, Joseph and Jacob, and Aaron and Moses. Yet, why is it that they didn't desire to be buried in another place?
2 Isn't it for them to arise together with their relatives in Resurrection time? How about, isn't it lest their bones be counted with evil ones' and pagans' bones—those who worship idols? Why is it that they didn't desire to be buried in another place?
3 But you, don't mislead your reasoning while you said, 'How will dead persons arise after they died—they who were buried in one grave, being tens of thousands, and whose bodies were demolished and rotten?'
4 And at the time you looked toward a grave, you spoke this in your reasoning's dullness while you said, 'A whole fistful of Earth won't be found. How will dead persons arise?'
5 Will you say the seed you sowed won't grow? Even the seed you sowed shall grow.
6 And all likewise—the souls JAH sowed shall quickly arise. As Him has created man in Him Truth, bringing from not living toward living, Him shall arouse them quickly by Him Word that saves. Him won't delay Him arousing.
7 And as Him has again returned him from living toward a grave in death—what about, isn't it possible for Him again to return from death toward Life?
8 Saving and lifting up are possible for JAH.

[baguhin]1 Ammon perished, and its fortress was demolished. As JAH has brought hardship upon them according to their evil and the work they did with their hands, persons who worship idols in Edom and Zebulon shall be brought low at that time. As JAH has approached—Who shall convict those who worked in their infancy and didn't quit until they aged—because of their idols and their evil, Sidon and Tyre shall weep.
2 Because they worked sin and seductive fornication and worshipped idols—because of this, JAH shall take revenge and destroy them. For they didn't live firmed up in their Creator JAH's command—and Judah's daughter's children shall be wretched.
3 She lived firmed up in killing prophets and in the righteous ones. Yet, as she didn't live firmed up in the Nine Laws and the Worship, at the time when dead ones arise, Jerusalem's sin shall be revealed.
4 At that time, JAH shall examine her in Him Nature's Wisdom. Him will take revenge and destroy her for all her sin that she worked in her infancy era. She didn't quit working her sin, beginning from her beauty era until her old age.
5 She entered toward a grave and became dust like her former fathers who lived firmed up in their sin. And in Resurrection time, Him shall take revenge and destroy persons who demolished JAH's LAW.
6 It shall be judged upon them, for Moses has spoken concerning them, saying, 'Their LAW lodging—their reasonings—became Sodom's law lodging.'
7 And their kindred are Gomorrah's kindred, and their law is what destroys, and their Work is evil.
8 And their law is snake poison that destroys, and viper poison that destroys from alongside that.

[baguhin]1. Jerusalem, child – your sin is like the sin of Gomorrah and Sodom – Jerusalem, child, this is your tribulation that a prophet spoke of.
2. And your tribulation is like the tribulation of Gomorrah and Sodom – and their legal principles were established in **adultery** and **arrogance**.
3. Aside from the **rain of adultery** and **arrogance**, the **rain of pardon** and **humility** did not fall from their principles, by money, that their legal principles are fertile – apart from shedding human blood, robbing, and forgetting their Creator, JAH.
4. And they did not know their Creator, JAH – apart from their evil deeds and their idols – and they are **pleased** with their handiwork – and they lust after males and after livestock.
5. As their eyes of principle have been **blinded** lest they perceive secrets – and as their ears have been **deafened** lest they hear or do JAH's will that He loves – they did not know JAH in their deeds – and their principles are like the laws of Sodom. And their kin – the kin of Gomorrah's grapes that bear sweet fruit.
6. And if they examine their deeds – it is poison that kills – for it has been established in a curse beginning from the day when it was wrought – and for its foundation has been in an era of **destruction**.
7. As their legal principles – their principles – have been established in sinful deeds – as their bodies have been established in Satan's burning work to build sin – their legal principles – their principles – have no good deeds at all times.
8. And at the time he was ashamed and was baptized (by one who is led), it was for **chastisement** and **destruction** – and he will strengthen the persons who drank and their principles – and he will make those who destroy me – **disgusting** persons who distanced themselves from JAH.
9. For they have lived established in their deeds that were evil – and he will make them dwellings for the Devil – and eating what was sacrificed to the idols has begun in the House of Israel – and she proceeds toward the mountains and the trees.
10. And she worships the idols that people in her area worship – and she sacrifices her daughters and her sons to demons who do not know good deeds, separating from evil.
11. And they spill pure blood – they pour and spill grapes from Sodom for the idols forever.
12. And she glorifies and worships the Dragon that the **idolaters** worship – and she sacrifices to him from her flocks and her fattened cows – that she might be **pleased** in the laziness of demons that they taught her to sacrifice to them – and in their pouring and spilling the grapes – and that she might do their will.
13. She sacrifices to him that she might be **pleased** in the laziness of demons that they taught her, lest she know her Creator, JAH, Who feeds her at each time and Who cherished and raised her beginning from her infancy up till her beauty – and again up till her old age – and again up till the day she dies.
14. And again, I shall **avenge** and **convict** him in the time of Resurrection – and as she did not return toward my Law – and as she did not live established in my Command – her time when she lives in Gehenna shall be until Eternity.
15. If they were truly Creators – let her idols arise with her and descend toward Gehenna and save her at the time I was **vexed** and **destroyed** her – and at the time I distanced all the priests of the idols who lust with her.
16. Just as she committed sin and insult against the Holy Items and against my dwelling, the Temple – I made her wretched by all this.
17. When they told her – “Look – this is JAH's kin – and she is Israel, her Creator JAH's dwelling – and the famous King's country, Jerusalem, who was separate from those who were separate – she is the dwelling of the Most High JAH's Name” – I made her wretched just as she saddened my Name that was called in her.
18. She boasts in me that she was my slave and that I was her Lord – she winks at me like a criminal – yet she is not one who fears me and does my will as if I were her Lord.
19. They became an **obstacle** to her to mislead, that they might distance her from me – yet she is ruled by other idols who neither feed her nor clothe her.
20. She offers sacrifices to them – and she eats the sacrifice – and she spills blood for them – and she pours and drinks from the grapes for them – she burns incense for them – and she makes the incense fragrance smell for them – her idols command her – and she is commanded by them.
21. And again, she sacrifices her daughters and her sons to them – and as she presents praises for them because of their love – she is **pleased** in the thing she spoke with her tongue and in her handiwork.
22. Woe to her on the day when the **Definite Judgment** is done – and woe to her idols whom she loves and unites with; and she shall descend with them toward Gehenna beneath Sheol – where the worm does not slumber and the fire is not extinguished.
23. Woe to you, wretched Jerusalem, child – for you have forsaken me Who created you and have worshipped different idols.
24. And I shall bring hardship upon you according to your deeds – as you have saddened me – and as you have ignored my Word – and as you did not perform good deeds – I shall **convict** you according to your pretensions.
25. For you have saddened my Word – and for you did not live established in my Law by which you swore with me – that you might keep my Law and that I might live with you in **Support** and might save you from all who fight you – and also that you might keep my Order that I commanded you – and I shall ignore you and will not quickly save you from the tribulation.
26. You did not keep all this – and I ignored you – as I created you – and as you did not keep my Command nor my Word – I shall **convict** you in the time of Judgment – and I honored you that you might be my kin.
27. And just as Gomorrah and Sodom were separated from me – you were separated from me.
28. And I judged and destroyed them – and just as Sodom and Gomorrah were separated from me – you separated from me – and now just as I was **vexed** and **destroyed** them – I was **vexed** and **destroyed** you – as you are from the kin of Sodom and Gomorrah whom I destroyed – I destroyed you – as those whom I created have saddened me by going toward a young wife and by lusting without Law – with animals and males, like approaching daughters – I destroyed their name invocation from this world lest they live in their **good condition**.
29. There is no fearing JAH in their faces, beginning from an infant up till an elder – they help him in all their evil deeds – yet He does not become **vexed** with each one, that they might cease their work – as their deeds are evil – they are sated with sin and iniquity.
30. All evil deeds – robbery and arrogance and greed – are prepared in their principles.
31. And because of this, JAH ignored them and destroyed their countries – and they are there that He might burn them with fire until their root foundation perishes – they totally perished until Eternity – yet He did not let even one of them remain.
32. As they have been established in sin – they shall wait in **destruction** forever until the Day of Advent when **Definite Judgment** is done – for they have saddened me with their evil deeds – and I will not pardon them nor forgive them.
33. And I ignored them – for you will not find a reason at the time I was **vexed** and seized you because all your deeds were robbery and sin – **adultery** and greed and speaking lies – all errors and the **obstacle** that I do not love – and you, Jerusalem, child, who were wretched – on the day when Judgment is done, you will be seized in Judgment like them.
34. I had made you for **honor** – but you debased yourself – I had called you my **possession** – but you became for another.
35. I had betrothed you for **honor** – but you became for the Devil – and I shall **avenge** and **destroy** you according to your evil deeds.
36. Because you did not hear all my Word – and because you did not keep the Command I commanded you at the time I loved you – I shall multiply and bring firm **vengeance** upon you – for I am JAH Who created you – and I shall judge all sinners like you – and on the day when Judgment is done, I shall bring hardship upon them according to their evil deeds.
37. As you did not keep my Word – and as you have ignored my Judgment – I shall **convict** you with them.
38. Woe to you – Gomorrah and Sodom – who have no fear of JAH in your principles.
39. Likewise – woe to your sister, Jerusalem, child, upon whom it shall be judged together with you in the Fire of Gehenna – for you will descend together toward Gehenna that was prepared for you – where there are no exits forever – and woe to all sinners who committed your sin.
40. As you did not keep my Command nor my Word – you and she who did not keep my Command nor my Word shall descend toward Sheol together on the day when Judgment is judged.
41. But righteous persons who kept my Command and my Word shall eat the **wealth** that sinful persons accumulated – and just as JAH commanded – righteous persons shall share the loot that evil persons captured – and righteous persons shall be totally **pleased**.
42. But wrongdoers and sinful persons shall weep – and they shall be sad because all their sins that they wronged, having departed from my Command.
43. He who keeps my Word and lives established in my Command – he is one who finds my blessing and is honored alongside me.
44. All persons who keep my Word and live established in my Command shall eat the richness found from Earth – and shall live, having entered toward the Garden where righteous kings who have straight principles enter.

[baguhin]1. As they shall be wretched and perish by my wrath at the time I seize them – woe to Tyre and Sidon and all the regions of the country of Judah who make themselves arrogant today.
2. The Conquering JAH has spoken thus: He has said – a child of the Devil who is totally arrogant shall be born from them – the False Messiah who, for a truth, is her enemy – who stiffens his neck in his reasoning – who boasts and does not know his Creator – and He said – Woe to them – and JAH Who rules all said – I made him after my anger's pattern, that I might be revealed in my Power.
3. And this Capernaum, Samaria, and Galilee, and Damascus, and Syria, and Achaea, and Cyprus, and all the Jordan region are kin who stiffened their necks in their reasoning – who live established in their sin – and whom the shadow of death and darkness covered – for the Devil has covered their reasoning in sin – and for they are commanded by that arrogant Devil – and they did not return toward fearing JAH.
4. At that time, woe to persons who are commanded by demons and who offer sacrifices in their name to them – as they have denied JAH Who created them – they resemble animals without minds – for the False Messiah who forgot JAH’s Law and is the Devil's child shall set up his image in all places (for he has said, “I am a god”) – and he shall be **pleased** according to his reasoning – in his handiwork and in robbery and all sins and perfidy and iniquity – in robbery and all the adulteries that a person commits.
5. For because it was counted alongside JAH that he does this – the era is known that they commit sin.
6. The sun shall darken and the moon shall turn to blood – and stars shall be shaken from Heaven – all the work shall pass by the miracles that JAH shall bring in the Fulfillment Era, that He might make the Earth pass away – and that He might make all persons pass away who live in sin within it.
7. As JAH has been proud of the creation He created – and as He has quickly made all He loved into one **being** – the Lord's death shall destroy a small enemy, the Devil.
8. For JAH Who rules all has said – I shall judge and destroy – but after the Advent – the Devil has no authority.
9. And on the day when he is seized by my anger – he shall descend toward Gehenna – for which he made application and where firm tribulation exists – as he will take all who are with him toward **chastisement** and **destruction** and perfidy – because I was the One Who sent forth from Gehenna and Who introduces toward Gehenna – he will descend toward Gehenna.
10. As He gives firmness and Power to weak persons – and again as He gives weakness to powerful and firm persons – let a powerful one not boast in his Power.
11. As He is a Ruler – and as He judges and saves the wronged persons from the hands of the persons who wrong them – He will return the grudge of the widows and the child whose father and mother died upon him.
12. Woe to you who boast and stiffen your neck in your reasoning – to whom it seems that I will not rule you nor judge and destroy you – for in his boasting and his arrogance he has said – “I will stretch my throne in the stars and Heaven – and I will be like JAH Who is lofty.”
13. And as He spoke, saying – How the Devil fell from Heaven – he who shines like a morning star that was created before all – woe to you.
14. And you dared and spoke this in your arrogance – and you did not think of JAH Who totally created you by His Authority – why did you boast yourself that you descend toward Gehenna in your firmness of reasoning?
15. You were debased, separate from all angels like you – for they praise their Creator with a humbled reasoning because they knew that He was the One Who created them from fire and wind – and for they do not depart from His Command – and for they keep their reasoning from perfidy lest they totally depart from His Command.
16. But you committed a firm perfidy in your reasoning's arrogance – you became a wretched man, separate from your companions – for you have cherished all sin and iniquity – robbery and perfidy whereby persons who forgot JAH’s Law and sinners like you live established – those who are from your kin and commit crime like you – and who live established by your command and your will, by which you teach sin.
17. Woe to you – for the demons you misled in your malice, and you will descend toward Gehenna together.
18. Oh, you children of JAH who erred by that misleading criminal Devil – woe to you – as you have erred like him by the **wealth** that he taught you and that his hosts taught you – you will descend toward Gehenna together – where there are no exits forever.
19. And formerly, when JAH’s slave Moses was there – you saddened JAH by the water where argument was made and at Meribah – and by Amalek and at Mount Sinai.
20. And moreover, at the time you sent scouts toward Canaan – at the time they told you this, saying, “The path is far – and their ramparts and their fortresses that reach up to Heaven are firm – and warriors live there” – you became **vexed** that you might return toward the country of Egypt where you do worrisome work – and you saddened JAH’s Word.
21. You did not think of JAH Who strengthened you from the tribulation – and Who performed great miracles in Egypt – and Who led you by His Angel's Authority. He would veil you in a cloud by day lest the sun burn you, and He would shine a column of fire for you by night lest your feet stumble in darkness.
22. And at the time the army and Pharaoh frightened you – you totally cried toward Moses – and Moses totally cried toward JAH – and He lodged in His Angel and kept you lest you meet with Pharaoh.
23. But He introduced them toward Eritrea in tribulation – JAH led only Israel – for He has said – And there was no different idol with them – but He buried their enemies in the sea at one time – and He did not preserve anyone who fled from them.
24. And He made Israel cross amidst the sea by foot – there was no tribulation that found them arising from the Egyptians – He delivered them toward Mount Sinai – and there He fed them manna for forty eras.
25. As the children of Israel sadden JAH every time – He did all this good thing for them, and they neglected to worship JAH.
26. They placed evil in their reasoning, beginning from their childhood up till their old age – for JAH's Mouth has spoken thus in the Law where the fathers’ birth was written – as He has spoken, saying – “The reasoning of Adam’s children is ash – and all their work is toward robbery, and they run toward evil – there is none among them who loves straight work – apart from gathering a person's **wealth** in violence and swearing in lies and wronging companions and robbing and stealing – they placed evil in their reasoning.”
27. And all go toward evil deeds in the era when they live in Life – the children of Israel who demolished JAH’s Law totally saddened JAH, beginning from antiquity up till the fulfillment era. ---

[baguhin]1. And at the time JAH destroyed Cain's children – the kin who preceded – in the water of destruction because of their sin – He baptized Earth in the Water of Destruction – and He cleansed her from all the sin of Cain's children.
2. As He has said – I was sad because I created man – He destroyed all wrongdoers – He preserved only eight persons – He destroyed all – after this, He multiplied them and they filled Earth – they shared their father Adam's inheritance.
3. But Noah swore an oath with JAH – they swore an oath with JAH lest JAH again destroy Earth in the Water of Destruction – and lest Noah’s children eat what is deceased nor what lay dead – lest they worship different idols apart from JAH Who created them – and that He might be a Loving Father to them – and lest He destroy them at one time in their vain sin – and lest He prevent them the first and the spring rain – and that He might give to livestock and persons their food at each time – that He might give them the grass and the grain fruit and plants – and and that they might perform good deeds in all that JAH loves.
4. And after He gave them this Order – the children of Israel saddened JAH by their sin – they did not live established in His Law like their fathers Isaac and Abraham and Jacob who did not violate their Creator JAH’s Law.
5. And beginning from the small up to the great – those children of Israel who did not keep JAH’s Law are crooked in their deeds.
6. And whether they be their priests or their chiefs or their scribes – everyone violates JAH’s Law.
7. They do not live established in JAH’s Order and His Law that Moses commanded them in Deuteronomy, saying – “Love your Creator JAH with your complete body and your complete reasoning.”
8. They do not establish themselves in JAH’s Order and His Law that Moses commanded them in the book where the Law was written, saying – “Love your companion as your own body – and do not worship his idols that are different – and do not go toward a young wife – do not kill a soul – do not steal.
9. And do not bear false witness – and be it his donkey or be it his ox – do not desire your companion's **wealth** nor all that your brother bought.”
10. However, after he commanded them all this – the children of Israel who were evil returned toward treachery and sin – robbery and iniquity – toward a young wife and toward lies and stealing and worshipping idols.
11. The children of Israel saddened JAH at Meribah by making a cow that grazes toward grass – they bowed, saying – “Look – these are our creators who sent us forth from Egypt.”
12. And they were **pleased** in their handiwork – if they ate and drank and sat – they arose to sing.
13. As JAH has told him, saying – Your kin whom you sent forth from the country of Egypt where rulership exists – they have departed from the Law and wronged – and they made a cow image and bowed to the idol – because of this, Moses was **vexed** and descended from Mount Sinai.
14. While Moses was **vexed** with his kin – he descended with his confidant Joshua – and at the time Joshua heard – he said – “Look – I hear the voice of warriors in Israel’s camp.”
15. And Moses told Joshua – “It is when Israel plays, having drunk the unboiled wine – yet as for a warrior’s voice – it is not” – and he descended and broke their image and totally crushed it until it was like dust – he mixed it within the water that the children of Israel drink beside the mountain.
16. And after this, he commanded the priests that they might slay one another because of the sin they committed before JAH.
17. They knew that defying JAH surpasses killing them and killing their fathers – and they did as he commanded them.
18. And Moses told them – “Because you saddened JAH Who fed you and cherished you and Who sent you forth from a house of rulership and Who bequeathed to you the inheritance that He swore to your fathers that He might give to them and to their children after them – because of this, you made JAH **pleased**.”
19. For they go toward sin and an evil thing – and they did not cease saddening JAH there.
20. They are not like their fathers Isaac and Abraham and Jacob who made JAH **pleased** with their good deeds that He might give them what is on Earth and what He prepared for persons who love Him in Heaven, beginning from their infancy up till their youth and up till their old age – they are not like Abraham and Isaac and Jacob who made Him **pleased** with their deeds that He might give them an Earth of inheritance where **good condition** is found in this world – and a garden that makes one **pleased** – prepared for righteous persons in the hereafter world – what He prepared for Abraham and Isaac and Jacob who made JAH **pleased** when they were in Life and who love Him – Whom an eye did not perceive nor an ear hear and Who is not thought of in reasoning.
21. And their children who denied JAH and were evil and who live established according to their reasoning – they did not hear JAH’s Command – Him Who fed them and cherished them and kept them beginning from their infancy.
22. They did not think of JAH – Who sent them forth from the land of Egypt and saved them from brick work and a firm rulership.
23. But they totally saddened Him – and He would arouse peoples in their area against them – and they would arise against them in enmity and also tax them as they wished.

[baguhin]1. And at that time, the people of Midian arose against them in enmity – and they aroused their armies against Israel that they might fight them – and their king's name was Akrandis. He quickly gathered many armies in Cilicia and Syria and Damascus.
2. And camping beyond the Jordan, he sent messengers saying – "And that I might capture your **wealth** – pay tribute to Israel for me." He told them – "But if you do not pay tribute – I came that I might punish you and might capture your livestock and take your mares and capture your children."
3. "I will capture and take you to the country you do not know – and there I will make you water-pourers and wood-gatherers," he told them.
4. "Do not boast while you say – 'We are JAH's kin, and there is nothing able to withstand us' – Is it not JAH Who sent me that I might destroy you and plunder your **wealth**? And is it not I whom JAH sent that I might gather all your kin?"
5. "Is there really a salvation that their different idols saved the other kin that I destroyed? I captured their mares and their horses and I killed them and captured their children."
6. "And unless you introduce the tribute that I commanded you – I will destroy you like them," he said – and he crossed the Jordan that he might plunder their livestock and their **wealth** and capture their wives.
7. And after this, the children of Israel wept a firm mourning toward JAH – and they totally cried – however, they lacked one who could help them.
8. And because of this, JAH gave firmness to the three brothers – and their names are as follows: – and they are Judah and Mattathias and Maccabees – whose features were handsome and who were warriors in their power.
9. And the children of Israel totally wept there – at the time they heard – it saddened them in their hearts, arising from all the children of Israel’s shouts – the child whose mother and father had died – and widows – and their officials and their priests – all Israel's kin – both daughters and males – and all children – would weep, sprinkling ash on their heads – and their nobles had worn sackcloth.
10. But those brothers – who were attractive and comely – went and agreed that they might save them – they counseled, saying – "Let us go and give our bodies to death because of these persons."
11. Telling one another – "Take heart – take heart" – they went, girding their swords on their waists and seizing their spears in their hands – and they went prepared that they might **incriminate** the warrior.
12. And they arrived at their camp – Mattathias attacked the warrior (the king) when he had sat at a dinner table – he cut his neck with one blow when food was in his mouth; and Maccabees and Judah struck his armies on the king's left and right by sword and killed them.
13. And at the time their king was defeated – they entered with their spears into their companions’ hearts – and they all totally fled and their bows were broken, and they were defeated.
14. But those brothers who are attractive and comely were saved from death – there was no evil thing that found them – but as JAH has returned **chastisement** toward them – they sliced up one another and were depleted.
15. They were defeated and dead, and they crossed the Jordan – and until they crossed, they cast away all their **wealth** – and all their **wealth** remained – and at the time the children of Israel perceived that their enemies fled – they went toward their camp and took both what they plundered and their **wealth** for themselves.
16. JAH saved Israel, doing thus by the brothers and Mattathias's hand.
17. Israel sat a few days while they made JAH **pleased**.
18. But after that, they again returned toward their sin – the children of Israel neglected worshipping JAH as is due.
19. And He shall again sadden them by kin who do not know them and who will gather their field crops and destroy their grape places and plunder their flocks and slaughter and feed them their livestock before them...

[baguhin]1. The Amalekites and the Edomites do not worship JAH, by whose authority the rulership of Earth and Heaven was seized — for they are criminals who are not established in the Work of Truth. They do not fear to destroy His dwelling place — the Temple.
2. And there is no fear of JAH before them; aside from shedding blood, committing adultery, and eating what was beaten to death and sacrificed to an idol, and all that is like what is tainted with death — they are scorned sinners.
3. They have neither virtue nor religion; for they hate righteous work, they do not know JAH, and they do not know the Work of Love. Instead, they rob others of their money and live in sin; they trouble their companions and engage in all works that are hated. Their pleasures are games and songs such as those taught to them by their father, the Devil. Truly, they have neither virtue nor religion.
4. For he has ruled them with his host — demons — and has taught them all evil works suited to each of their own ways: all robbery and sin, theft and falsehood, stealing money, eating what was beaten to death and what was tainted with death, and the works of adultery.
5. And he has taught them all things like these: going to a young man’s wife, shedding blood, eating what was sacrificed to idols and what was tainted with death, killing a person’s soul by violence, envy, winking with malice, greed, and all evil works that the Lord does not love. The Devil, their enemy, taught them these things so that he might turn them away from the Law of JAH, who rules over all the world.
6. But the Work of JAH is innocence and humility — not troubling a brother, but loving a companion, living in harmony, and loving all people.
7. Do not be hypocrites who show favor to a person’s face; do not be evildoers, nor complete robbers, nor those who go to a young man’s wife, nor those who commit iniquity and evil against their companions, nor those who deceive so that they might harm their companions by violence.

2. Those who are arrogant and evil, and the children of the powerful ones who are not strengthened more than they, were likewise in former times—because they looked upon their stature, their power, and their firm authority—they did not place JAH before them, and they did not know that He was their Creator, who brought them from not living into living.
3. And when their fathers, being like unto “angels,” were praised on Mount Horeb with angels, at the time they consented, they were misled and descended into this world where the Definite Judgment shall be done forever.
4. As JAH in antiquity created human flesh for them, that it might mislead them because of their arrogant reasoning and to test them as though they kept His Law and His Command—they married wives from Cain’s children.
5. But they did not keep His Law; He lowered them toward the Gehenna fire with their father, the Devil. For JAH was vexed with the offspring of Seth who wronged like unto persons, and the era of persons diminished because of their sin.
6. And they led Adam’s children into sin with them; He lowered them toward Sheol where they shall receive a verdict.
7. As the era of persons has been divided because Seth’s children erred with Cain’s children—when a person’s era was nine hundred in antiquity—they returned to living one hundred and twenty eras.
8. And as they are flesh and blood, JAH said, “My Spirit of Support will not remain firm upon them.”
9. And because our era was divided—because of our sin and our iniquity—our era has been separated from our fathers who preceded us, and when they are in their infancy again, they are dying.
10. But our fathers’ era had abounded because they kept His Law and because they did not sadden JAH.
11. And our fathers’ era had abounded because they were vexed with their daughters that they might teach them, and because they were vexed with their sons lest they demolish JAH’s Law.
12. Because they did not demolish JAH’s Law with their daughters and their sons, therefore their era truly abounded.

[baguhin]1. At the time Cain's children abounded, they played drums, harps, psalteries, and violins, and they made songs and all kinds of games.
2. Children who were attractive and comely were born to Cain from the wife of the kind man Abel—whom he killed because she was attractive—and after he killed his brother, he took her and the wealth that belonged to him.
3. Separating from his father, he seized them and went toward the region of Kephaz, which is toward the West, and that attractive woman's children were as attractive as their mother.
4. And because Seth's children descended toward Cain's children, after they looked upon them they did not wait even a little while, and they made the daughters they chose into wives for themselves.
5. As they took us into error together with them because of their wrongdoing, JAH was vexed with us and vexed with them.
6. And the Devil, having deceived them, said, "You will become creators like unto your Creator JAH"; he took our mother Eve and our father Adam into his error.
7. But thinking it was the truth in their dullness, they demolished the Law of JAH—He who created them, bringing them from not living into living—that they might bow and praise His glorified Name.
8. But He—their Creator—brought down those Adam and Eve who made themselves into gods, and He brought down the one who is arrogant.
9. As David spoke, saying, "Adam perished by the sinner Devil's arrogance"; He condemned them, for our father Adam was convicted for the Devil's arrogance by His true judgment.
10. And Seth's children, who erred through Cain's children, took us into their sin; therefore the era that JAH gave us was less than the eras of our fathers.
11. But they had done good works, for they had established their reasoning in JAH, for they had taught their daughters and their sons so they would not depart from JAH's Law which they had taught them—and there was no evil enemy who approached them.
12. But if they had done good works, there was nothing to benefit them if they did not tell or teach their children.
13. As David spoke, saying, "They did not hide from their children for another generation, but taught JAH's praise, the wondrous miracles He did, and His power"; there was nothing to benefit them if they did not teach their children so that they might, in turn, teach their children to have hearts as though they knew, and that they might know and do His command, and that they might trust in JAH's Law, and that they might keep His Law as their fathers made JAH pleased with their beautiful works.
14. And those who told them the trust from their fathers in their infancy did not demolish His command, as their fathers learned JAH's worship and the Nine Laws from their fathers.
15. Their children learned from their fathers so that they might do good works and present praise to their Creator, for they had kept His Law and had loved Him.
16. And He shall hear them in their prayer, and He will not ignore their plea, for He is a Forgiver.
17. Having multiplied His wrath, He shall return it to them, yet He would not destroy all in His chastisement.

[baguhin]1. My brethren, think and do not forget what was told to you formerly—that JAH keeps the true works of those who do good works.
2. And He multiplies their children in this world, and their name and invocation shall remain established for a good purpose until eternity, and their children will not be troubled for grain in this world.
3. As He will contend for them because of their righteousness—and as He will not deliver them into the hands of their enemies—He shall save them from the hands of those who hate them.
4. And for those who love His Name, He shall be their Helper in times of tribulation. He shall guard them and pardon all their sins.

[baguhin]1 David believed in JAH, because He had also believed in him, and He saved him by being a refuge from the hand of King Saul.
2 And as he believed in Him and kept His Law, at the time his son Absalom rose up, and at the time the Philistines arose, and at the time the Edomites and the Amalekites arose, and at the time the one from the four giants arose, JAH saved David from all this tribulation that his enemies who contended against him brought upon him.
3 As victory is by JAH's will, they were defeated by the hand of their enemies, but JAH did not save the evil kings who did not believe in Him.
4 And Hezekiah believed in JAH; He saved him from the hand of the arrogant Sennacherib.
5 But his son Manasseh was defeated by the hand of his enemy, for he did not put his trust in JAH. Since he did not trust in JAH and did not fear JAH, who had completely honored and famed him, they bound and took him to their country. But those enemies who defeated Manasseh were not like him.
6 At that time, He denied him the kingdom He gave him, because he did not perform good works before his Creator, JAH, so that his reign might prosper and so that He might contend with his enemy for him, and so that he might have power and stability both behind and in front.
7 For it is better to believe in JAH than in many armies, than in believing in horses and bows and shields.
8 Believing in JAH surpasses all. A person who believes in Him shall be made firm, and be honored, and be completely exalted.
9 For JAH does not show favoritism. But people who did not believe in JAH—who instead believed in their abundance of money—became those who departed from the grace and honor that He gave them.
10 He shall guard the people who believe in Him, but He shall make ignorant those who call Him ignorant. And since they did not discipline their reasoning to follow JAH or keep His Law, He will not quickly help them in their time of tribulation, nor in the time their enemies contended with them.
11 But for a person who was disciplined in worshipping JAH and in keeping His Law, He shall be a refuge in his time of tribulation.
12 By destroying his enemy, and by plundering his enemy's livestock, and by capturing the people of his enemy's country, and by raining seasonal rain, and by growing sprouts, and by bringing in the pile of grain from the fruit of the plant...
13 And by raining the first and the spring rains, and by making the grass green, and by giving the rain that rains at each time, so that your kinsmen beneath your Authority might be at peace, He shall make him at peace.
14 He shall make him at peace, so that they might consume the other person's wealth, so that they might be satisfied after consuming the wealth they plundered from their enemy, so that they might plunder animals, sheep, and cows, and so that they might eat at the other person's dinner table, and so that they might take their enemies' children captive.
15 JAH shall do all this for the person whom He loves, but He will make the person who hates Him an object for his enemy's plundering.
16 And He shall bind his feet and his hands and shall cast him into his enemy's hand. And He shall make him an object of his enemies' derision. And as he has become a shedder of blood who demolished JAH's Law, He will not make him at peace within his family line. 17 And he will not be stable in the time of Judgment. And so that He might bring hardship upon the people who commit sin, He will also give people who perform evil works the hardship of their sin.
18 But it was commanded from JAH's side to give the people who perform good works their reward, so that He might keep them in His Authority. 19 For He is empowered over all the creation He created, so that He might do good works and give them eternal well-being, and so that they might praise JAH Who created them. And He commanded that he might keep His Law; apart from only man, there is no one from all the creations He created that has departed from His Command. 20 Just as JAH commanded, all who live are made firm in each of their works; they all know and are kept in His Law. 21 But man is bold against JAH, who crowned all over each of His creations: over animals and beasts and over the birds of Heaven.
22 Whether it is what is in the sea or all on the land, JAH gave all the creation He created to their father Adam. JAH gave them so that he might do what he loved, and so that they might eat them like the grain that grew on Earth, and so that they might rule and control them. And whether they are beasts or animals, they might be commanded by man. And He appointed them over all He created, so that the people who reigned might be commanded by JAH Who gave them honor, and so that they might favor Him.
23 But if they depart from His Law, He will separate them from the lordship He gave them. As He is the One who rules Earth and Heaven, He will give it to him who does His will.
24 He appoints whom He loves to appoint, but He dismisses whom He loves to dismiss. He kills, He saves, He punishes in tribulation, He forgives.
25 There is no other Creator like Him. As He is the Ruler of all the creation He created, and as there is no other Creator besides Him in Heaven above the Earth or on the Earth beneath Heaven, there is no one who shall criticize Him.
26 He appoints, He dismisses, He kills, He saves, He punishes in tribulation, He forgives, He impoverishes, He honors. 27 He hears people who beg Him in their plea. He accepts the plea of a person who does His will with a clean heart. And He hears them in their prayer, and He does according to their will for them in all that they begged of Him.
28 And He makes the great and the small to be commanded by them. All this is their wealth: on hills and mountains, and at the roots of trees, and in caves and the wells of the Earth, and all their kinsmen on both land and sea. 29 And for people who do the will of their Creator, all this is their wealth. And He will not trouble them from their abundance, and He shall give them their reward of praise. 30 And He shall give them the honor He prepared in Heaven for their fathers Isaac, Abraham, and Jacob. He shall give them what He prepared for Hezekiah, David, and Samuel, who did not depart from His Law and His Command.
31 So that they might be at peace in His Lordship, He shall give those who served Him from the beginning of time the honor He prepared for their fathers Isaac, Abraham, and Jacob, for whom He swore to give them an inheritance.

[baguhin]1 Please, think of the names of people who do good works, and do not forget their works.
2 Strive so that your name may be called like their name, so that you may be at peace with them in the Kingdom of Heaven. That is the light dwelling that He prepared for nobles and kings who did JAH's will and were kind people. 3 And again, know and be convinced of the names of the evil nobles and kings, for He shall condemn them and revile them among men after they are dead.
4 For they did not align their works while they saw and heard. And know and be convinced that unless they did JAH's will, He shall judge them in the Kingdom of Heaven more than criminals and people who have forgotten JAH's Law.
5 Be kind, innocent, and honest. However, do not walk on the path of the people who have forgotten JAH's Law, with whom JAH was angry because of their evil works.
6 Judge with truth and save the child whose mother and father have died, and the widow from the hands of sinful people who rob them. 7 Be a guardian like a father to the child whose mother and father have died, so that you may save him from the hand of the wealthy one who robs him. And stand for him, and be alarmed at the time when the tears of the child—whose mother and father have died—flow before you, lest you be alarmed in the sea of fire where sinful people who have not repented are punished.
8 And straighten your feet toward the path of Love and Unity. As JAH's eyes check on His friends, and as His ears hear their plea, seek Love and follow her. 9 But the face of JAH's wrath is toward the people who do evil works, so that He may destroy the mention of their name from this world. And He will not preserve a person who is near on ramparts or mountains.
10 As I am JAH, Who am jealous of My Godhood, as I am a Creator who takes revenge and destroys people who hate Me and do not keep My Word, I will not turn away My face of support until I destroy the person who does not keep My Word.
11 And I will honor those who honor Me and keep My Word.

[baguhin]1 Do not live in the manner of Cain, who killed his brother that followed him in innocence, while it seemed to him that his brother loved him.
2 And he killed his brother, envying a daughter. Persons who create envy, iniquity, and betrayal against their companion are like him.
3 But as Abel was innocent like a sheep, and as his blood was like the clean sheep's blood that they sacrificed for JAH with a clean heart, they walked on Cain's path, which is not Abel's path.
4 Because all the people who live in innocence were those whom JAH loves, just like the kind man Abel. They have been innocent ones like Abel, but those who live firmly in Abel's works love JAH. 5 But JAH neglects the evil ones, and their definite judgment is applied to their bodies. And it is written in the record of their hearts, and at the time when Judgment is held, they shall read it before men, Angels, and before all of Creation.
6 At that time, they shall be put to shame. Wrongdoers and those who refuse to do JAH's will shall be put to shame. 7 And an alarming Word shall be given to them that says, "Place them in Gehenna, where there is no exit until eternity."

[baguhin]1; But at the time Gideon trusted JAH, he defeated the armies of uncircumcised peoples, who were very many in number, like locusts, even though his army had only a few tens of thousands.
2; As there are no Creator besides Me, O nobles and kings, do not believe in the different idols.
3; As I am your Creator, JAH, Who sent you forth from your mothers' wombs, and raised you, and fed you, and clothed you—why do you make excuses? Why do you worship other idols besides Me?
4; I did all this for you, and what did you give Me? It is that you might live firmly established in My Law, My Order, and My Command, and that I might give you welfare for your bodies, yet what will I desire from you?
5; JAH, Who rules all, said thus. He said, "Save yourselves from worshipping idols, and practicing sorcery, and giving in to pessimism."
6; As JAH's chastisement shall come upon those who do this, and upon those who hear them and act according to them, and are their friends, and who live firmly established in their command, save yourselves from worshipping idols.
7; As peoples, who do not know you and are not favorable to you, shall arise against you, unless you, who feared JAH, kept His Covenant, they will consume the money for which you labored. Like His servants the prophets spoke, and like Enoch spoke, and like Asaph spoke: unless you kept JAH's Covenant, they will consume the money for which you labored.
8; Evil persons will come having changed their clothes, He said. There is no other law alongside them apart from eating and drinking and adorning themselves with silver and gold, and living firmly established in sin—all the Work JAH does not love.
9; But they are prepared to go toward drink and food. After they awake from their slumber, beginning from morning up until evening, they go toward evil Work. There is misery and tribulation in their path, yet their feet have no Love path.
10; And they do not know Love and Unity Work, and there is no fear of JAH in their faces. They are crooked evil ones without religion nor virtue. They are greedy ones who eat and drink alone. They are drunkards, and their sin is without Law and without measure. They are those who go toward sedition, shedding blood, theft, and perfidy, and violently robbing the money of him who does not have it.
11; And they are those who criticize without Love and without Law, for they do not fear JAH Who is angry with them, and there is no fear in their faces.
12; They do not feel shame in the face of the person that they look upon, and they do not shame a gray-haired nor an elder's face. At the time they heard when they said, "'And there is money in this world'", they make it their own money before they see it with their eyes, for there is no fear of JAH in their faces. And at the time they see it with their eyes, it seems to them that they have already consumed it.
13; And their nobles consume trust money. They are those who consume, as they are negativists, and as there is no straightforward thing in their tongues, they do not repeat in the evening what they spoke in the morning.
14; For they ignore the cries of sufferers and poor ones, and their kings hasten toward evil—they who oppress a person, even though he saved refugees from the hands of wealthy ones who rob them.
15; Let them save him who was wronged and the refugee, yet let the kings not be those who begrudge justice because of possessions.
16; But they are those who exact tribute. They are those who rob a person's money, and they are criminals, and as their Work is evil, they are not gentle when they eat the newborn calf with its mother and a bird with its egg. They make all they look upon and heard their own money.
17; They love that they might gather for themselves, yet they are not gentle to sick and poor ones, and they violently rob the money of a person who does not have it, and they gather all they found that they might be fattened and be joyful in it.
18; For they shall perish quickly, like a scarab that came out of its pit and whose track is not found and that does not return toward its house. And because they did not work goodly Work when they are in their Life—woe to their bodies at the time JAH is vexed and seizes them.
19; At the time JAH neglected them, they will perish at once, like they are in one chastisement, for He endured their attitude as if they returned toward repentance. Yet, He does not quickly destroy them, and they shall perish at the time when they shall perish.
20; But if they do not return toward repentance, He will quickly destroy them, like former persons who preceded them—who did not keep JAH's Law as it is due.
21; They are those who consume a person's flesh and drink a person's blood. As they prepare and work violence to go toward sin, there is no fear of JAH in their faces at all times. And after they arose from their bed, they do not rest to work sin.
22; And their Work is drink and food, going toward destruction and sin, that they might destroy many persons' bodies in this world.

5; I command a snake that is beneath Earth, and I command a fish that is within sea, and I command birds in Heaven, and I command the desert donkey in wilderness, for it is My possession beginning from horizon up until horizon.
6; As I am Who works wondrous Work and does miracles before Me, there is none who escapes from My Authority on Earth nor in Heaven. There is none who tells Me: "Where do You go? What do You Work?"

8; It arises from the East wind and firmly establishes itself in drought in Masia. Later, in the fulfillment era, the Red Sea shall perish upon hearing, arising from JAH, Who shall come toward it, being feared and famous.
9; For He rules them who are dead and persons who are there, and it shall perish upon hearing with Sheba and Nubia and India's limits and Ethiopia's limits and all their regions.
10; And He watches all in lofty Authority and innocence, for His Authority surpasses all the authority, and He keeps congregations in His Authority.
11; And for His Authority is established more than all the authority, and for His Kingdom surpasses all the kingdoms, and for His Authority is what rules all the world, for He is able for all, and for there is nothing that fails Him.
12; He rules all clouds in Heaven. He grows grass for livestocks on Earth, and He gives fruit on the buds.
13; He feeds all in each of the kinds like He loved. He feeds all that He created by each of the fruits and each of the foods. And He feeds ants and locusts beneath Earth and livestocks on Earth and beasts. And for a person who prayed, He gives him his desire, and He does not ignore the plea of the child whose mother and father died, nor widows.
14; As evil persons' rebellion is like a swirling wind and wrongdoers' counsel like misty urine, He shall rather accept the plea of them who beg toward Him at each time and clean ones.
15; And as their body is like a flying bird, and as their features' comeliness that is silver and gold is perishable in this world, examination will benefit persons who forgot JAH's Law yet not their gold, and moths shall eat their clothes.
16; And weevils shall totally eat the wheat and the barley fatness, and all shall pass like the day that passed yesterday, and like a word that proceeded from a mouth does not return, sinner persons' money also is like it, and their 'beautiful lifestyle' is like a passing shadow. Sinner persons' money before JAH is like a lie clothes.
17; But if kind persons are honored, JAH won't ignore them, for they have been honored while they were nice to poor ones, and they hear the justice of sufferers and a child whose mother and father died. JAH won't ignore them, for without neglecting their house children, they honor Him while they clothe the naked from the clothes JAH gave them that they might give for the refugee sufferer.
18; They do not favor loyal persons' judgment, and they do not let a hireling's salary lodge. As JAH's thing is Truth and honored like a sword whose mouths were two, they won't do iniquity in their seasons' number and in their balance measurement.

6; On the third day JAH created plants on Earth, all the roots and woods and fruits that are brought forth in each of their kinds, and a welfare wood (or tree of life) beautiful for them to look upon.
7; And He created a welfare wood that was both beautiful for them to look upon and sweet for them to eat. And He created grass, and all plants whose seeds are found from within them, to be food for birds and livestocks and beasts.
8; It became dusk, it dawned, and on the fourth day He said: "Let Light be created in the Heaven called the cosmos." JAH, having created the moon and Sun and stars, He placed them in the Heaven called the cosmos that they might shine in this world and that they might provide light for them day and night.
9; And after this, the moon and Sun and stars alternated in night and day.
10; And on the fifth day JAH created all animals and beasts that live within Water and all birds that fly in Heaven, all that are seen and unseen—all this.
11; And on the sixth day He created livestocks and beasts and others, and having created and prepared all, He created Adam in His Image and His Likeness.
12; He gave him all animals and beasts He created that he might reign over them, and again, all animals and beasts and all fishes, and Leviathan and Behemoth that are in the sea.
13; And He gave him all cows that live in this world and sheeps, the animals unseen and them that are seen.
14; And He placed Adam, whom He created in His Image and His Likeness, in the Garden that he might eat and might cultivate plants and might praise JAH there.
15; And lest he disobey His Command, He had said: "At the time when you eat from this Tree of Fig, you will surely die."

17; Our mother Eve was cajoled by a snake misleading her, and she ate from that Tree of Fig and gave it to our father Adam.
18; And Adam, having eaten from that Tree of Fig, brought death upon his children and upon himself.
19; As he had disobeyed His Command, and as he had eaten from that Tree of Fig that JAH commanded, saying: "Do not eat from it"—JAH was angry with our father Adam and expelled and sent him away from the Garden, and He gave him that Earth that grows thistle and thorn, that He cursed because of him at the time he disobeyed His Command, that he might eat the reward of his weariness, having toiled and labored that he might plow it.
20; And at the time JAH sent him forth toward this land, Adam returned toward complete sadness, and having toiled and labored that he might plow Earth, he began to eat in weariness and also in struggles.

2; There were prophets who spoke what was done and what will be done henceforth, and from his children there were sinners who speak lies and who wrong people. Adam's firstborn child, Cain, became evil and killed his brother Abel.
3; JAH judged Cain because he killed his brother Abel, and JAH was angry with the Earth because it drank his blood.
4; And JAH told Cain: "Where is your brother Abel?" And Cain, in his heart's arrogance, said: "Am I my brother Abel's keeper?"
5; Abel became a clean man, but Cain became a sinner by killing a kind man, his brother Abel.

12; And they lived when they worshipped the idols according to their custom, up until a kind man, Abraham, who fulfills JAH's Covenant.
13; For he lived firmly established in the Law beforehand, separate from his cousins, and JAH swore an oath with him, appearing in wind and fire.
14; JAH swore to him that He might give him a land of inheritance and that He might give it to his children up until Eternity.
15; And He swore to Isaac like He swore to him that He might give him his father Abraham's inheritance, and He swore to Jacob that He might give him his father Isaac's inheritance. He swore to him like He swore to Isaac.
16; And He separated their children (who were born after them from Jacob) from the twelve tribes of Israel, and made them priests and kings. He blessed them, saying: "Multiply and become very many."
17; And He gave them their fathers' inheritance. However, while He fed them and loved them, they did not cease saddening JAH in everything.
18; And at the time He destroyed them, at that time they will seek Him in worship, and they will return from sin and go toward JAH, for He loves them, and JAH shall pardon them.
19; For, being kind to all He created, He shall pardon them. And it is because of their fathers' Work that He loves them, yet it is not because of their own Work.
20; And He stretches forth His Right Hand in plenty that He might satisfy a hungry body, and He reveals His Eye for pardoning that He might multiply grain for food.
21; He gives food to crows' chicks and to beasts that beg Him. At the time they cried toward Him, He will save Israel's children from the hands of their enemies who delayed from the time.
22; And they will return toward sin again that they might sadden Him, and He will arouse peoples who trouble them in their area upon them. They will destroy them and kill them and capture them.
23; And again they will shout toward JAH in mourning and sadness, and there is the time when He sent help and saved them by the hands of prophets.
24; And there is the time when He saved them by the hands of princes, and at the time they saddened JAH, their enemies taxed them and captured them.
25; And David arose and saved them from the hands of the Philistines. And again they saddened JAH, and JAH aroused peoples who worry them upon them.
26; And there is the time when He saved them by the hand of Jephthah. And again they forgot JAH Who saved them in their time of tribulation. As JAH has brought the hardship upon them, He will arouse evil enemies upon them who will firmly establish tribulation upon them and totally capture them.
27; And at the time they were worried by tribulation, they were seized and again cried toward Him, and He saved them by the hand of Gideon. And again they saddened JAH by the Work of their hands.
28; And again He aroused peoples who firmly establish tribulation upon them, and they returned and wept and cried toward JAH.
29; And again He saved them from peoples by the hand of Samson, and they rested a little from the tribulation. And they arose that they might sadden JAH by their former sin.
30; And again He aroused other peoples who worry them upon them, and again they cried and wept toward JAH that He might send help for them. And He saved them from peoples by the hands of Barak and Deborah.
31; Again they lived a little season while they worshipped JAH, and again they forgot JAH in their former sin and saddened Him.
32; And He aroused other peoples who worry them upon them, and again He saved them by the hand of Judith. And having rested again a little season, they arose that they might sadden JAH by their sin like formerly.
33; And He aroused peoples who rule them upon them, and they cried and wept toward JAH, for He struck Abimelech on his head, who was a warrior who came that he might fight the country of Judah.
34; And He saved them by the children in the area and by the hand of Mattathias. And at the time that warrior died, his army fled and was scattered, and Israel's children followed and fought them up until the Jabbok River, and they didn't preserve even one person from them.
35; After this they waited a little and arose that they might sadden JAH, and He aroused peoples who rule them upon them. And again they totally cried toward JAH, and JAH ignored their crying and their mourning, for they had saddened JAH everytime, and for they had disobeyed His Law.
36; And they captured and took them with their priests toward the country of the people of Babylon.
37; And then Israel's children who were traitors didn't cease saddening JAH while they worked sin and worshipped idols.
38; JAH was angry that He might destroy them at once in their sin. Haman, having introduced ten thousand gold into the king's treasury, on the day when it was known, he lodged anger in King Artaxerxes' reasoning, lest he preserve the children in Persia's country, beginning from India and up until Ethiopia, at the time he told him that he might destroy them.
39; He did thus, and he wrote a letter where a message was written by the king's authority, and he gave him a seal in his hand that he might deliver it toward Persia's country.
40; He gave him a seal that he might destroy them on one day when he loved them to be destroyed, like the king commanded. But he commanded that he might introduce their money (the gold and the silver) toward the king's treasury.
41; And at the time Israel's children heard this thing, they totally cried and wept toward JAH, and they told it to Mordecai, and Mordecai told it to Esther.
42; And Esther said: "Fast, pray, and all Israel's children's kindreds, cry toward JAH in the place where you are."
43; And Mordecai wore sackcloth and sprinkled dust upon himself, and Israel's children fasted, prayed, and entered repentance in the country where they were.
44; And Esther was totally sad, and being a queen, she wore sackcloth. She sprinkled dust and shaved her head, and she didn't anoint perfume like Persian queens anoint perfume. And in her deep reasoning, she cried and wept toward her father's Creator, JAH.
45; And because of this thing, He gave her being loved alongside Persia's King Artaxerxes, and she made a kind feast for her father's Creator.
46; And Haman and the king entered toward the feast that Esther prepared, and like he loved that he might do upon Mordecai, JAH paid the hardship upon that Haman, and they hanged him on a tall wood.
47; The king's letter was commanded that they might cease from Israel according to all their covenant, and lest they tax them nor rob them nor wrong them nor take their money upon them.
48; As JAH shall pardon Israel, doing thus at the time they cried, entering repentance, it is that they might love them and honor them in Persia's country where they lived. Yet a king's letter was commanded lest they destroy their country nor plunder their livestocks.
49; And at their time they saddened Him, He will arouse peoples who worry them upon them. At that time they will totally weep and cry that He might send help for them and that He might save them from the hand of peoples who firmly establish tribulation upon them.

[baguhin]1 During that time, the Egyptians also forced the children of Israel to work by making them produce bricks under difficult conditions—they burdened them with labor by making them tread mud without straw and heat the bricks.
2 At that time, they made them work under appointed chiefs who rushed the workers; they cried out to JAH that He might save them from producing all the Egyptian bricks.
3 At that time, He sent Aaron and Moses to help them, for JAH sent them to lead His people out of Pharaoh’s house of rulership. He saved them from the labor of brick-making because, in his arrogance, Pharaoh refused to let Israel go to be ruled by JAH and offer sacrifices in the wilderness. JAH sent them to lead His people, Israel, out of the house of the Egyptian king Pharaoh, and He saved them.
4 For JAH neglects the arrogant; He drowned Pharaoh in the Erythraean Sea along with his army because of his arrogance.
5 And like him, He shall destroy those who did not perform good work in all the kingdoms where He appointed and crowned them—so that those who ignore JAH’s Word while they are nobles and kings might fulfill His Covenant for Him, give workers who serve in good things their wages, and honor His famous Name.
6 JAH, Who rules all, said: "If they will straighten up My Kingdom, I will straighten up their kingdom for them."
7 "Do good work for Me, and I shall do good work for you. Keep My Law, and I shall keep your bodies. Live firmly in My Law, and I shall live by lodging honesty within you and your reasoning."
8 "Love Me, and I shall love your welfare. Draw near to Me, and I shall heal you."
9 JAH, Who rules all, said: "Believe in Me, and I shall save you from tribulation."
10 "Do not live in sin. As JAH Who rules all loves righteous work, He said: 'You—approach Me, and I shall approach you. You who are sinners and traitors, cleanse your hands from sin and distance your minds from evil.'"
11 "And I shall distance My anger from you, and I shall return to you in Charity and Forgiveness."
12 "I shall distance criminals and enemies who work iniquity from you, just as I saved My servant David from the enemies who encountered him—from their great malice, from the hand of Goliath who was a warrior, from the hand of Saul who sought to kill him, and from the hand of his child Absalom who desired to take his kingdom."
13 "I shall save those who keep My Law and fulfill My Covenant like him. I shall bequeath them honor, and they shall be at peace in the present world and in the world to come. I shall crown them so that they may all be at peace."
14 They shall be one with the kings who served JAH and were honored in their beautiful way of life—just as the prophet Samuel served Him in his beautiful way of life from his infancy, whom JAH, being the Law, chose.
15 He told him to speak to Eli, who was a servant elder. When he served in JAH’s Lodging, the Temple, Samuel’s work was also merciful and beloved.
16 And as he grew while serving in JAH’s Lodging, the Temple, He caused him to be appointed and anointed, that he might lead his people and that kings might be anointed by JAH’s Covenant. As JAH loved him, the kindred He chose from the children of Israel were appointed; when he fulfilled the Covenant of JAH Who exalted him, He placed the anointing of the Kingdom in his hand.
17 And when Saul was in his kingdom, JAH told His prophet Samuel: "Go, and as I have loved Jesse’s child David, who was born of the kin of Judah, anoint him."

[baguhin]1 I have hated Saul’s kin, for he has saddened Me because he violated My Word.
2 And I neglected him because he did not keep My Law; therefore, I shall not crown anyone from his lineage again.
3 As for those who did not keep My Law, My Word, and My Order as he did—I shall destroy My Kingdom and My gift from their children until eternity.
4 And since they did not make Me famous during the time I made them famous, I shall destroy them; I will not return to lift them up again. Though I honored them, since they did not honor Me, I will no longer make them famous.
5 For they did not do a good thing for Me during the time I did good things for them, and they did not forgive for Me during the time I forgave them.
6 And as they did not make Me a Ruler during the time I made them rulers over all—and as they did not honor Me when I honored them above everyone else—I will not make them famous again nor honor them, for they did not keep My Law.
7 I have withheld the gift I gave them, and I will not return the wealth I withheld from them, according to the measure by which I was vexed and swore. JAH, Who rules all, said: "I shall honor those who honored Me, and love those who loved Me."
8 I shall separate those who did not honor Me nor keep My Law from the gift I gave them.
9 JAH, Who rules all, said: "I love those who loved Me, and I make famous him who made Me famous."
10 "As I, JAH, am He Who rules all, there is none who escapes My Authority on Earth or in Heaven; for I am JAH Who kills and saves, and Who saddens and forgives."
11 "As fame and honor are My wealth, I honor him whom I love; for I am He Who judges, revenges, and destroys—and I make wretched him whom I hate." .12 "For I am He Who forgives those who love Me and call upon My Name at all times; for I am He Who provides food for the wealthy and the poor."
13 "And I feed the birds and animals, the fish in the sea, the beasts, and the flowers; yet I am not He Who feeds man alone."
14 "I feed the crocodiles and whales, the gophers, the hippopotamuses, and the badgers..."
15 "...and all that live within the water, and all that fly upon the wind; yet I am not He Who feeds man alone—all of these are My domain."
16 "I am He Who feeds all that seek Me through all that is due and beloved."
