for their bringing up that evil slander upon it, and were plagued
before the LORD. But Iosua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Iephune
which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still. And
Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel, and the
people took great sorrow. And they rose up early in the morning and gat
them up into the top of the mountain saying: lo we be here, and will go
up unto the place of which the LORD said, for we have sinned. And Moses
said: wherefore will ye go on this manner beyond the word of the LORD?
it will not come well to pass: go not up for the LORD is not among you
that ye be not slain before your enemies. For the Amalekites and the
Cananites are there before you, and ye will fall upon the sword:
because ye are turned away from the LORD, and therefore the LORD will
not be with you. But they were blinded to go up into the hilltop: Never
the later, the ark of the testament of the LORD and Moses departed not
out of the host. Then the Amalekites and the Cananites which dwelt in
that hill, came down and smote them and hewed them: even unto Horma.
Chapter .xv.
And the LORD spake unto Moses saying: speak unto the children of Israel
and say unto them: when ye be come into the land of your habitation
which I give unto you, and will offer an offering upon the fire unto
the LORD, whether it be a burntoffering or a special vow or freewill
offering or if it be in your principal feasts to make a sweet savour

burntoffering or any other offering when it is a lamb. And unto a ram
thou shalt offer a meatoffering of two tenth deals of flour, mingled
with the third part of an hin of oil, and to a drinkoffering thou shalt
offer the third part of an hin of wine, to be a sweet savour unto the
LORD. When thou offerest an ox to a burntoffering or in any special vow
or peaceoffering unto the LORD, then thou shalt bring unto an ox, a
meatoffering of three tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of
oil. And thou shalt bring for a drinkoffering half an hin of wine, that
is an offering of a sweet savour unto the LORD. This is the manner that
shall be done unto one ox, one ram, a lamb or a kid. And according to
the number of such offerings, thou shalt increase the meatofferings and
the drinkofferings. All that are of your selves shall do these things
after this manner, when he offereth an offering of sweet savour unto
the LORD. And if there be a stranger with you or be among you in your
generations, and will offer an offering of a sweet savour unto the
