Book 1: The Good News According to MattihYahoo
Chapter 1
THE book of the generation of Yahooshua The Anointed One of Yah, the son of Dawid, the son of Abraham.
2 Abraham begat Yitshaq; and Yitshaq begat Ya’aqob; and Ya’aqob begat Yahoowdah and his brethren;
3 And Yahoowdah begat Perets and Zerah of Thamar; and Perets begat Hetsron; and Hetsron begat Ram;
6 And Yishai begat Dawid the king; and Dawid the king begat Shelomoh of her that had been the wife of UriYah;
7 And Shelomoh begat Rehab’am; and Rehab’am begat AbiYah; and AbiYah begat Asa;
8 And Asa begat Yahoshaphat; and Yahoshaphat begat Yoram; and Yoram begat UzziYah;
9 And UzziYah begat Yotham; and Yotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat HizqiYahoo;
10 And HizqiYahoo begat Menashsheh; and Menashsheh begat Amon; and Amon begat YoshiYahoo;
11 And YoshiYahoo begat YekonYah and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, YekonYah begat She’alti’El; and She’alti’El begat Zerubbabel;
16 And Ya’aqob begat Yoseph the husband of Miryam, of whom was born Yahooshua {Jesus}, who is called The Anointed One of Yah {Christ}.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to Dawid are fourteen generations; and from Dawid until the carrying away into Babel are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babel to The Anointed of Yah are fourteen generations.
18 Now the birth of Yahooshua The Anointed of Yah was on this wise: When as his mother Miryam was espoused to Yoseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Set-Apart Spirit.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing appeared to him in a dream, saying, Yoseph, thou son of Dawid, fear not to take to thee Miryam as thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Set-Apart Spirit.
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing {the Lord} by the Spokesman of Yah, saying,
24 Then Yoseph being raised from sleep did as the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing had bidden him, and took to him his wife:
Chapter 2
NOW when Yahooshua was born in Beyth Leḥem of Yahooḏah in the days of Herodes the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Yerushalayim,
2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Yahoodi’iy? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
4 And when he had gathered all the Chief Priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where The Anointed One of Yah should be born.
5 And they said to him, In Beyth Leḥem of Yahooḏah: for thus it is written by the Spokesman of Yah,
6 And thou Beyth Leḥem, in the land of Yahoodah, art not the least among the princes of Yahoodah: for out of thee shall come a Ruler, that shall rule my people Israel.
12 And being warned of Yah in a dream that they should not return to Herodes, they departed into their own country another way.
13 And when they were departed, behold, the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing appeareth to Yoseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Mitsrayim, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herodes will seek the young child to destroy him.
15 And was there until the death of Herodes: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing by the Spokesman of Yah, saying, Out of Mitsrayim have I called my son.
17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by YirmeYahoo the Spokesman of Yah, saying,
19 But when Herodes was dead, behold, an messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing appeareth in a dream to Yoseph in Mitsrayim,
22 But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Yahooḏah in the room of his father Herodes, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of Yah in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galil:
23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Natsareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Spokesmen of Yah, He shall be called a Natsarene.
Chapter 3
In those days came Yahoochanan the Immerser, preaching in the wilderness of Yahooḏah,
3 For this is he that was spoken of by the Spokesman of Yah YeshaYahoo, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, make his paths straight.
4 And the same Yahoochanan had his raiment of camel’s hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
5 Then went out to him Yerushalayim, and all Yahooḏah, and all the region round about Jordan,
13 Then cometh Yahooshua from Galil to Yarden to Yahoochanan, to be immersed of him.
14 But Yahoochanan forbad him, saying, “I have need to be immersed of thee, and comest thou to me?”
15 And Yahooshua answering said to him, “Permit it to be so now: for thus it fitting us to fulfil all righteousness”. Then he sufferted him.
16 And Yahooshua, when he was immersed, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the Heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of Yah descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
If you are a committed Believer and have never been filled with the Spirit of Yah, immerse yourself in a clean body of water and, as you go under pray “Father Yah, in the name of Yahooshua, I ask you to fill me with your Spirit.”
Thereafter give thanks for receiving the Spirit and sing songs relating to infilling with the Spirit.
You may have a supernatural experience when you immerse but this is not universal.
|
17 And lo a voice from Heaven, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”.
Chapter 4
THEN was Yahooshua led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, “If thou be the Son of Yah, command that these stones be made bread”.
4 But he answered and said, “It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of Yah”.
6 And saith to him, “If thou be the Son of Yah, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his messengers charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone”.
7 Yahooshua said to him, It is written again, “Thou shalt not tempt Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One”.
10 Then saith Yahooshua to him, “Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One, and him only shalt thou serve”.
12 Now when Yahooshua had heard that Yahoochanan was cast into prison, he departed into Galil;
14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah, saying,
17 From that time Yahooshua began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.
18 And Yahooshua, walking by the sea of Galil, saw two brethren, Shim‛on called Kepha, and Andri his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Zebedee, and Yahoochanan his brother, in a ship with Zaḇdai their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
23 And Yahooshua went about all Galil, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galil, and from Dekapolis, and from Yerushalayim, and from Yahooḏah, and from beyond Yarden.
Chapter 5
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see Yah.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of Yah.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in Heaven: for so persecuted they the Spokesmen of Yah which were before you.
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the Torah, or the Spokesmen of Yah: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
33 Again, you have heard that it has been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thine oaths:
34 But I say to you, Swear not at all; neither by Heaven; for it is Yah’s throne:
Chapter 6
24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve Yah and mammon.
30 Wherefore, if Yah so clothe grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O you of little Emunah?
33 But seek you first the Kingdom of Yah, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.
Chapter 7
12 Therefore all things whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you even so to them: for this is the Torah and the Spokesmen of Yah.
15 Beware of false Spokesmen of Yah, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
28 And it came to pass, when Yahooshua had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
Chapter 8
3 And Yahooshua put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 And Yahooshua saith to him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moshe commanded, for a testimony to them.
5 And when Yahooshua was entered into Kephar Naḥum, there came to him a Captain, beseeching him,
7 And Yahooshua saith to him, I will come and heal him.
10 When Yahooshua heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say to you, I have not found so great Emunah, no, not in Yisra’El.
13 And Yahooshua said to the Captain, Go thy way; and as thou has believed, so be it done to thee. And his servant was healed in the self-same hour.
14 And when Yahooshua was come into Kepha’s house, he saw his wife’s mother laid, and sick of a fever.
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
18 Now when Yahooshua saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart to the other side.
20 And Yahooshua saith to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has not where to lay his head.
22 But Yahooshua said to him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Yahooshua, thou Son of Yah? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
34 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Yahooshua: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.
Chapter 9
2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the paralytics, lying on a bed: and Yahooshua seeing their Emunah said to the sick of the paralytics; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.
4 And Yahooshua knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think you evil in your hearts?
8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and Kavod Yah, which had given such authority to men.
9 And as Yahooshua passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named MattihYahoo, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
10 And it came to pass, as Yahooshua sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
12 But when Yahooshua heard that, he said to them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
14 Then came to him the disciples of Yahoochanan, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
15 And Yahooshua said to them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.
19 And Yahooshua arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.
22 But Yahooshua turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy Emunah has made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.
23 And when Yahooshua came into the ruler’s house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
27 And when Yahooshua departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of Dawid, have mercy on us.
28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Yahooshua saith to them, Believe you that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yea, Adonay.
30 And their eyes were opened; and Yahooshua strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.
35 And Yahooshua went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
38 Pray you therefore Yah of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
Chapter 10
2 Now the names of the twelve emissaries are these; The first, Shim‛on, who is called Kepha, and Andri his brother; Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Zaḇdai, and Yahoochanan his brother;
3 Philip, and Bartholomi; T’oma, and MattihYahoo the tax collector; Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Alphai, and Laḇai, whose surname was Taddai;
4 Shim‛on the Canaanite, and Yahoowdah from Qerioth, who also betrayed him.
5 These twelve Yahooshua sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Ha-goyim, and into any city of the Samaritans enter you not:
41 He that receives a Spokesman of Yah in the name of a Spokesman of Yah shall receive a Spokesman of Yah’s reward; and he that receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.
Chapter 11
AND it came to pass, when Yahooshua had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.
2 Now when Yahoochanan had heard in the prison the works of The Anointed One of Yah, he sent two of his disciples,
4 Yahooshua answered and said to them, Go and shew Yahoochanan again those things which you do hear and see:
7 And as they departed, Yahooshua began to say to the multitudes concerning Yahoochanan, What went you out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
9 But what went you out for to see? A Spokesman of Yah? yea, I say to you, and more than a Spokesman of Yah.
11 Verily I say to you, Among them that are born of women there has not risen a greater than Yahoochanan the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
12 And from the days of Yahoochanan the Baptist until now the Kingdom of Heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
13 For all the Spokesmen of Yah and the Torah prophesied until Yahoochanan .
14 And if you will receive it, this is EliYahoo, which was to come.
18 For Yahoochanan came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He has a devil.
25 At that time Yahooshua answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Adonay of Heaven and Earth, because thou has hid these things from the wise and prudent, and has revealed them to babes.
Chapter 12
AT that time Yahooshua went on the Sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
4 How he entered into the house of Yah, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
15 But when Yahooshua knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah, saying,
25 And Yahooshua knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every Kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of Yah, then the Kingdom of Yah is come to you.
39 But he answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the Spokesman of Yah Yonah:
Chapter 13
THE same day went Yahooshua out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of YeshaYahoo, which saith, By hearing you shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see, and shall not perceive:
17 For verily I say to you, That many Spokesmen of Yah and righteous men have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.
34 All these things spake Yahooshua to the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not to them:
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Spokesman of Yah, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
36 Then Yahooshua sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came to him, saying, Declare to us the parable of the tares of the field.
51 Yahooshua saith to them, Have you understood all these things? They say to him, Yea, Adonay.
53 And it came to pass, that when Yahooshua had finished these parables, he departed thence.
55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Miryam? and his brethren, Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yoseph, and Shim‛on, and Yahoowdah?
57 And they were stumbled in him. But Yahooshua said to them, A Spokesman of Yah is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Chapter 14
AT that time Herodes the district ruler heard of the fame of Yahooshua,
2 And said to his servants, This is Yahoochanan the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
3 For Herodes had laid hold on Yahoochanan, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias sake, his brother Philip’s wife.
4 For Yahoochanan said to him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5 And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a Spokesman of Yah.
8 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here Yahoochanan Immerser’s head in a dish.
10 And he sent, and beheaded Yahoochanan in the prison.
12 And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Yahooshua.
13 When Yahooshua heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities.
14 And Yahooshua went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
16 But Yahooshua said to them, They need not depart; give you them to eat.
22 And straightway Yahooshua constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
25 And in the fourth watch of the night Yahooshua went to them, walking on the sea.
27 But straightway Yahooshua spake to them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
29 And he said, Come. And when Kepha was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Yahooshua.
31 And immediately Yahooshua stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said to him, O thou of little Emunah, wherefore didst thou doubt?
33 Then they that were in the ship came and bowed down him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of Yah.
Chapter 15
THEN came to Yahooshua scribes and Pharisees, which were of Yerushalayim, saying,
3 But he answered and said to them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of Yah by your tradition?
4 For Yah commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have you made the commandment of Yah of none effect by your tradition.
7 Ye hypocrites, well did YeshaYahoo prophesy of you, saying,
16 And Yahooshua said, Are you also yet without understanding?
21 Then Yahooshua went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tsor and Tsiḏon.
28 Then Yahooshua answered and said to her, O woman, great is thy Emunah: be it to thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
29 And Yahooshua departed from thence, and came nigh to the sea of Galil; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
30 And great multitudes came to him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and laid them down at Yahooshua’ feet; and he healed them:
31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they Kavod the Yah of Yisra’El.
32 Then Yahooshua called his disciples to him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
34 And Yahooshua saith to them, How many loaves have you? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
Chapter 16
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the Spokesman of Yah Yonah. And he left them, and departed.
6 Then Yahooshua said to them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
8 Which when Yahooshua perceived, he said to them, O you of little Emunah, why reason you among yourselves, because you have brought no bread?
13 When Yahooshua came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of Adam am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art Yahoochanan the Baptist: some, EliYahoo; and others, YirmeYahoo, or one of the Spokesmen of Yah.
16 And Shim‛on Kepha answered and said, Thou art the Anointed One of Yah, the Son of the living Mighty One.
17 And Yahooshua answered and said to him, Blessed art thou, Shim‛on Bar-Yonah: for flesh and blood has not revealed it to thee, but my Father which is in Heaven.
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
21 From that time forth began Yahooshua to shew to his disciples, how that he must go to Yerushalayim, and suffer many things of the elders and Chief Priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
23 But he turned, and said to Kepha, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an stumbling block to me: for your thoughts are not the things that be of Yah, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Yahooshua to his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his Stake, and follow me.
Chapter 17
AND after six days Yahooshua taketh Kepha, Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoochanan his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
3 And, behold, there appeared to them Moshe and EliYahoo talking with him.
4 Then answered Kepha, and said to Yahooshua, Adonay, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three booths; one for thee, and one for Moshe, and one for EliYahoo.
7 And Yahooshua came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Yahooshua only.
9 And as they came down from the mountain, Yahooshua charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of Adam be risen from the dead.
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that EliYahoo must first come?
11 And Yahooshua answered and said to them, EliYahoo truly shall first come, and restore all things.
12 But I say to you, That EliYahoo is come already, and they knew him not, but have done to him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of Adam suffer by them.
13 Then the disciples understood that he spake to them of Yahoochanan the Immerser.
17 Then Yahooshua answered and said, O emunahless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I put up with you? bring him hither to me.
18 And Yahooshua rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then came the disciples to Yahooshua apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
20 And Yahooshua said to them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say to you, If you have Emunah as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.
22 And while they abode in Galil, Yahooshua said to them, The Son of Adam shall be betrayed into the hands of men:
25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Yahooshua prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Shim‛on? of whom do the kings of the Earth take custom or tax? of their own children, or of strangers?
26 Kepha saith to him, of strangers. Yahooshua saith to him, Then are the children free.
Chapter 18
AT the same time came the disciples to Yahooshua, saying, Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?
2 And Yahooshua called a little child to him, and set him in the midst of them,
22 Yahooshua saith to him, I say not to thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.
Chapter 19
AND it came to pass, that when Yahooshua had finished these sayings, he departed from Galil, and came into the coasts of Yahooḏah beyond Yarden;
6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore Yah has joined together, let not man put asunder.
14 But Yahooshua said, allow little children, and forbid them not, to come to me: for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.
17 And he said to him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, Yah: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18 He saith to him, Which? Yahooshua said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
21 Yahooshua said to him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou has, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in Heaven: and come and follow me.
23 Then said Yahooshua to his disciples, Verily I say to you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
24 And again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of Yah.
26 But Yahooshua beheld them, and said to them, With men this is impossible; but with Yah all things are possible.
28 And Yahooshua said to them, Verily I say to you, that you which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Adam shall sit in the throne of his Kavod, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Yisra’El.
Chapter 20
17 And Yahooshua going up to Yerushalayim took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said to them,
22 But Yahooshua answered and said, Ye know not what you ask. Are you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be immersed with the baptism that I am immersed with? They say to him, We are able.
25 But Yahooshua called them to him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Ha-goyim exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.
30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the wayside, when they heard that Yahooshua passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Adonay, thou Son of Dawid.
32 And Yahooshua stood still, and called them, and said, What will you that I shall do to you?
34 So Yahooshua had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
Chapter 21
AND when they drew nigh to Yerushalayim, and were come to Beyth Phaḡi, to the mount of Olives, then sent Yahooshua two disciples,
4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Spokesman of Yah, saying,
6 And the disciples went, and did as Yahooshua commanded them,
9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of Dawid: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; Hosanna in the highest.
11 And the multitude said, This is Yahooshua the Spokesman of Yah of Natsareth of Galil.
12 And Yahooshua went into the temple of Yah, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
16 And said to him, Hearest thou what these say? And Yahooshua saith to them, Yea; have you never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou has perfected praise?
21 Yahooshua answered and said to them, Verily I say to you, If you have Emunah, and doubt not, you shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if you shall say to this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
24 And Yahooshua answered and said to them, I also will ask you one thing, which if you tell me, I in likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 The baptism of Yahoochanan, whence was it? from Heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, from Heaven; he will say to us, Why did you not then believe him?
26 But if we shall say, of men; we fear the people; for all hold Yahoochanan as a Spokesman of Yah.
27 And they answered Yahooshua, and said, We cannot tell. And he said to them, neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say to him, The first. Yahooshua saith to them, Verily I say to you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the Kingdom of Yah before you.
32 For Yahoochanan came to you in the way of righteousness, and you believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and you, when you had seen it, repented not afterward, that you might believe him.
42 Yahooshua saith to them, Did you never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
43 Therefore say I to you, The Kingdom of Yah shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a Spokesman of Yah.
Chapter 22
AND Yahooshua answered and spake to them again by parables, and said,
16 And they sent out to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of Yah in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
18 But Yahooshua perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt you me, you hypocrites?
21 They say to him, Cæsar’s. Then saith he to them, Render therefore to Cæsar the things which are Cæsar’s; and to Yah the things that are Yah’s.
29 Yahooshua answered and said to them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of Yah.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the Messengers of Yah in Heaven.
31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by Yah, saying,
32 I am the Mighty One of Abraham, and the Mighty One of Yitshaq, and the Mighty One of Ya’aqob? Yah is not the Mighty One of the dead, but of the living.
37 Yahooshua said to him, Thou shalt love Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
40 On these two commandments hang all the Torah and the Spokesmen of Yah.
41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Yahooshua asked them,
42 Saying, What think you of the Anointed One of Yah? whose son is he? They say to him, The Son of Dawid.
44 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing said to my Adonay, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Chapter 23
THEN spake Yahooshua to the multitude, and to his disciples,
8 But be not you called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah; and all you are brethren.
10 Neither be you called masters: for one is your Master, even The Anointed One of Yah.
22 And he that shall swear by Heaven, sweareth by the throne of Yah, and by him that sitteth thereon.
29 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you build the tombs of the Spokesmen of Yah, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the Spokesmen of Yah.
31 Wherefore you be witnesses to yourselves, that you are the children of them which killed the Spokesmen of Yah.
34 Wherefore, behold, I send to you Spokesmen of Yah, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them you shall kill and execute; and some of them shall you flog in your Synagogues (congregations), and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the Earth, from the blood of righteous Heḇel to the blood of ZeḵarYah son of BereḵYah, whom you slew between the temple and the altar.
37 O Yerushalayim, Yerushalayim, thou that killest the Spokesmen of Yah, and stonest them which are sent to thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and you would not!
39 For I say to you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till you shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 24
AND Yahooshua went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 And Yahooshua said to them, See you not all these things? verily I say to you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
4 And Yahooshua answered and said to them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I [Yahooshua] am the Anointed One of Yah; and shall deceive many.
11 And many false Spokesmen of Yah shall rise, and shall deceive many.
15 When you therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the Spokesman of Yah, stand in the Set-Apart place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Yahooḏah flee into the mountains:
23 Then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is The Anointed One of Yah, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise Anointed Ones of Yah, and false Spokesmen of Yah, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Chapter 26
AND it came to pass, when Yahooshua had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples,
4 And consulted that they might take Yahooshua by subtilty, and kill him.
6 Now when Yahooshua was in Beyth Anyah, in the house of Shim‛on the leper,
10 When Yahooshua understood it, he said to them, Why trouble you the woman? for she has wrought a good work upon me.
14 Then one of the twelve, called Yahoowdah from Qerioth, went to the Chief Priests,
17 Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Yahooshua, saying to him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the Passover?
19 And the disciples did as Yahooshua had appointed them; and they made ready the Passover.
25 Then Yahoowdah, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said to him, Thou has said.
26 And as they were eating, Yahooshua took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
31 Then saith Yahooshua to them, All you shall stumble because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.
34 Yahooshua said to him, Verily I say to thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
36 Then cometh Yahooshua with them to a place called Gethsemane, and saith to the disciples, Sit you here, while I go and pray yonder.
47 And while he yet spake, lo, Yahoowdah, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the Chief Priests and elders of the people.
49 And forthwith he came to Yahooshua, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.
50 And Yahooshua said to him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Yahooshua, and took him.
51 And, behold, one of them which were with Yahooshua stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the High Priest’s, and smote off his ear.
52 Then said Yahooshua to him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
55 In that same hour said Yahooshua to the multitudes, Are you come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and you laid no hold on me.
56 But all this was done, that the writings of the Spokesmen of Yah might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
57 And they that had laid hold on Yahooshua led him away to Caiaphas the High Priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
59 Now the Chief Priests, and elders, and all the Sanhedrin, sought false witness against Yahooshua, to put him to death;
61 And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the Temple of Yah, and to build it in three days.
63 But Yahooshua held his peace. And the High Priest answered and said to him, I put you to oath by the living Mighty One, that thou tell us whether thou be the Anointed One of Yah, the Son of Yah.
64 Yahooshua saith to him, Thou has said: nevertheless I say to you, Hereafter shall you see the Son of Adam sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of Heaven.
68 Saying, Prophesy to us, thou Anointed One of Yah, Who is he that smote thee?
69 Now Kepha sat without in the courtyard: and a damsel came to him, saying, Thou also wast with Yahooshua of Galil.
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said to them that were there, This fellow was also with Yahooshua of Natsareth.
75 And Kepha remembered the word of Yahooshua, which said to him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
Chapter 27
WHEN the morning was come, all the Chief Priests and elders of the people took counsel against Yahooshua to put him to death:
3 Then Yahoowdah, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the Chief Priests and elders,
9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by YirmeYahoo the Spokesman of Yah, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Yisra’El did value;
10 And gave them for the potter’s field, as Yah the Eternally Self-Existing appointed me.
11 And Yahooshua stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Yahoodi’iy? And Yahooshua said to him, Thou sayest.
17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom will you that I release to you? Barabba, or Yahooshua which is called The Anointed One of Yah?
20 But the Chief Priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabba, and destroy Yahooshua.
22 Pilate saith to them, What shall I do then with Yahooshua which is called The Anointed One of Yah? They all say to him, Let him be executed.
26 Then released he Barabba to them: and when he had scourged Yahooshua, he delivered him to be executed.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Yahooshua into the common hall, and gathered to him the whole band of soldiers.
29 And when they had plaited a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Yahoodi’iy!
35 And they executed him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Spokesman of Yah, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of Yah, come down from the Stake.
43 He trusted in Yah; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of Yah.
46 And about the ninth hour Yahooshua cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lemah sheḇaqtani?” that is to say, “my Darling, my Darling, why has thou forsaken me?”
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calls for EliYahoo.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether EliYahoo will come to save him.
50 Yahooshua, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up his Spirit.
54 Now when the Captain, and they that were with him, watching Yahooshua, saw the Earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of Yah.
55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Yahooshua from Galil, ministering to him:
57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Ramathayim, named Yoseph, who also himself was Yahooshua’s disciple:
58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Yahooshua. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
Commentary the miraculous death of Yahooshua
To fully understand the significance of what is reported above read the article “2020.10.01 The miraculous planning of the death of Yahooshua – where, how and what” at https://www.etimin.org/miracle-of-yahooshua-jesus-death [ETIV 11]
The whole series of events and everything leading up to it was meticulously planned at least a thousand years before and agreed to by Yah and Yahooshua and meticulously scripted and choreographed by Yah through His Spirit.

66 So they went, and made the Tomb sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.
Chapter 28
2 And, behold, there was a great Earthquake: for the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing descended from Heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
5 And the Messenger answered and said to the women, Fear not you: for I know that you seek Yahooshua, which was executed.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Yahooshua met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and bowed down to him.
10 Then said Yahooshua to them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galil, and there shall they see me.
15 So they took the money, and did as they were instructed: and this saying is commonly reported among the Yahoodi’iy until this day.
16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galil, into a mountain where Yahooshua had appointed them.
18 And Yahooshua came and spake to them, saying, All authority is given to me in Heaven and in Earth.
Commentary:
It is widely believed that the young man who fled the garden leaving his garment behind in Mark 14:51-52 “51 And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him: 52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked” was Mark.
On this basis Mark had apparently been a firsthand observer for much of the period in question but was not part of the inner circle so he presents a distinct view.
Please read the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to Mark as well.

THE beginning of the Good News of Yahooshua The Anointed of Yah, the Son of Yah;
2 As it is written in the Spokesmen of Yah, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, make his paths straight.
4 Yahoochanan did immerse in the wilderness, and preach the immersion of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 And there went out to him all the land of Yahooḏah, and they of Yerushalayim, and were all immersed of him in the river Yarden, confessing their sins.
6 And Yahoochanan was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Yahooshua came from Natsareth of Galil, and was immersed of Yahoochanan in Yarden.
14 Now after that Yahoochanan was put in prison, Yahooshua came into Galil, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom of Yah,
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of Yah is at hand: repent you, and believe the Good News.
17 And Yahooshua said to them, Come you after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
19 And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Zaḇdai, and Yahoochanan his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.
24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Yahooshua of Natsareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Set-Apart One of Yah.
25 And Yahooshua rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Shim‛on and Andri, with Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan .
41 And Yahooshua, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith to him, I will; be thou clean.
45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Yahooshua could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in lonely places: and they came to him from every quarter.
5 When Yahooshua saw their Emunah, he said to the sick of the paralytics, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.
7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but Yah only?
8 And immediately when Yahooshua perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said to them, Why reason you these things in your hearts?
12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and Kavod Yah, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
15 And it came to pass, that, as Yahooshua sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Yahooshua and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.
17 When Yahooshua heard it, he saith to them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
18 And the disciples of Yahoochanan and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say to him, Why do the disciples of Yahoochanan and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
19 And Yahooshua said to them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
26 How he went into the house of Yah in the days of AbiYahthar the High Priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?
7 But Yahooshua withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galil followed him, and from Yahooḏah,
11 And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of Yah.
17 And Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Zaḇdai, and Yahoochanan the brother of Ya‛aqoḇ; and he added the name to them Beni-Reḡes, which is, The sons of thunder:
18 And Andri, and Philip, and Bartholomi, and MattihYahoo, and T’oma, and Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Alphai, and Taddai, and Shim‛on the Kena‛anite,
19 And Yahoowdah from Qerioth, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.
35 For whosoever shall do the will of Yah, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
11 And he said to them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the Kingdom of Yah: but to them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
26 And he said, So is the Kingdom of Yah, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;
30 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the Kingdom of Yah? or with what comparison shall we compare it?
6 But when he saw Yahooshua afar off, he ran and bowed down to him,
7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Yahooshua, thou Son of the most high Mighty One? I adjure thee by Yah, that thou torment me not.
13 And forthwith Yahooshua gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
15 And they come to Yahooshua, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
19 Howbeit Yahooshua sufferted him not, but saith to him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has done for thee, and has had compassion on thee.
20 And he departed, and began to publish in Dekapolis how great things Yahooshua had done for him: and all men did marvel.
21 And when Yahooshua was passed over again by ship to the other side, much people gathered to him: and he was nigh to the sea.
24 And Yahooshua went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.
27 When she had heard of Yahooshua, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
30 And Yahooshua, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
36 As soon as Yahooshua heard the word that was spoken, he saith to the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
37 And he sufferted no man to follow him, save Kepha, and Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoochanan the brother of Ya‛aqoḇ.
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Miryam, the brother of Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yoseph, and of Yahoodah, and Shim‛on? and are not his sisters here with us? And they stumbled at him.
4 But Yahooshua said to them, A Spokesman of Yah is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
14 And king Herodes heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he said, That Yahoochanan the Immerser was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
15 Others said, That it is EliYahoo. And others said, That it is a Spokesman of Yah, or as one of the Spokesmen of Yah.
16 But when Herodes heard thereof, he said, It is Yahoochanan, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.
17 For Herodes himself had sent forth and laid hold upon Yahoochanan, and bound him in prison for Herodias sake, his brother Philip’s wife: for he had married her.
18 For Yahoochanan had said to Herodes, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother’s wife.
20 For Herodes feared Yahoochanan, knowing that he was a just man and Set-Apart, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.
24 And she went forth, and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of Yahoochanan the Immerser.
25 And she came in straightway with haste to the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a dish the head of Yahoochanan the Immerser.
30 And the emissaries gathered themselves together to Yahooshua, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
34 And Yahooshua, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
3 For the Pharisees, and all the Yahoodi’iy, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
6 He answered and said to them, Well has YeshaYahoo prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honours me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
8 For laying aside the commandment of Yah, you hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things you do.
9 And he said to them, Full well you reject the commandment of Yah, that you may keep your own tradition.
13 Making the word of Yah of none effect through your tradition, which you have delivered: and many such like things do you.
27 But Yahooshua said to her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to the dogs.
IN those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Yahooshua called his disciples to him, and saith to them,
17 And when Yahooshua knew it, he saith to them, Why reason you, because you have no bread? perceive you not yet, neither understand? have you your heart yet hardened?
27 And Yahooshua went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Cæsarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Whom do men say that I am?
28 And they answered, Yahoochanan the Immerser: but some say, EliYahoo; and others, One of the Spokesmen of Yah.
29 And he saith to them, But whom say you that I am? And Kepha answereth and saith to him, Thou art The Anointed One of Yah.
33 But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Kepha, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for your thoughts are not those of Yah, but the things that be of men.
AND he said to them, Verily I say to you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the Kingdom of Yah come with power.
2 And after six days Yahooshua taketh with him Kepha, and Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoochanan, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.
4 And there appeared to them EliYahoo with Moshe: and they were talking with Yahooshua.
5 And Kepha answered and said to Yahooshua, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moshe, and one for EliYahoo.
8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Yahooshua only with themselves.
11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that EliYahoo must first come?
12 And he answered and told them, EliYahoo verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of Adam, that he must suffer many things, and be despised.
13 But I say to you, That EliYahoo is indeed come, and they have done to him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
23 Yahooshua said to him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
25 When Yahooshua saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
27 But Yahooshua took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
38 And Yahoochanan answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
39 But Yahooshua said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
41 For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to the Anointing of Yah, verily I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.
47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the Kingdom of Yah with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into Hell fire:
AND he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Yahooḏah by the farther side of Yarden: and the people resort to him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
5 And Yahooshua answered and said to them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6 But from the beginning of the creation Yah made them male and female.
9 What therefore Yah has joined together, let not man put asunder.
14 But when Yahooshua saw it, he was much displeased, and said to them, Permit the little children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the Kingdom of Yah.
15 Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of Yah as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
18 And Yahooshua said to him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, Yah.
21 Then Yahooshua beholding him loved him, and said to him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou has, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in Heaven: and come, take up the Stake, and follow me.
23 And Yahooshua looked round about, and saith to his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the Kingdom of Yah!
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Yahooshua answereth again, and saith to them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the Kingdom of Yah!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of the needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of Yah.
27 And Yahooshua looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with Yah: for with Yah all things are possible.
29 And Yahooshua answered and said, Verily I say to you, There is no man that has left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the Good News,
32 And they were in the way going up to Yerushalayim; and Yahooshua went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen to him,
35 And Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan, the sons of Zaḇdai, come to him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.
38 But Yahooshua said to them, Ye know not what you ask: can you drink of the cup that I drink of? and be immersed with the immersion that I am immersed with?
39 And they said to him, We can. And Yahooshua said to them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the immersion that I am immersed withal shall you be immersed:
41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan .
42 But Yahooshua called them to him, and saith to them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Ha-goyim exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
47 And when he heard that it was Yahooshua of Natsareth, he began to cry out, and say, Yahooshua, thou Son of Dawid, have mercy on me.
49 And Yahooshua stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calls thee.
50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Yahooshua.
51 And Yahooshua answered and said to him, What wilt thou that I should do to thee? The blind man said to him, Adonai, that I might receive my sight.
52 And Yahooshua said to him, Go thy way; thy Emunah has made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Yahooshua in the way.
6 And they said to them even as Yahooshua had commanded: and they let them go.
7 And they brought the foal to Yahooshua, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
10 Blessed be the Kingdom of our father Dawid, that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: Hosanna in the highest.
11 And Yahooshua entered into Yerushalayim, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out to Beyth Anyah with the twelve.
14 And Yahooshua responding and said to it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
15 And they come to Yerushalayim: and Yahooshua went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
22 And Yahooshua answering saith to them, Have Emunah in Yah.
29 And Yahooshua answered and said to them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 The immersion of Yahoochanan, was it from Heaven, or of men? answer me.
32 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted Yahoochanan, that he was a Spokesman of Yah indeed.
33 And they answered and said to Yahooshua, We cannot tell. And Yahooshua replied to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
11 This was Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
14 And when they were come, they say to him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of Yah in truth: Is it lawful to give tax to Cæsar, or not?
17 And Yahooshua answering said to them, Render to Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and to Yah the things that are Yah’s. And they marvelled at him.
24 And Yahooshua answering said to them, Do you not therefore err, because you know not the writings, neither the power of Yah?
26 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have you not read in the book of Moshe, how in the bush Yah spake to him, saying, I am the Mighty One of Abraham, and the Mighty One of Yitshaq, and the Mighty One of Ya’aqob?
29 And Yahooshua answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Yisra’El; Yah the Eternally Self-Existing our Mighty One is one:
30 And thou shalt love Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
34 And when Yahooshua saw that he answered discreetly, he said to him, Thou art not far from the Kingdom of Yah. And no man after that durst ask him any question.
35 And Yahooshua answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that The Anointed One of Yah is the Son of Dawid?
36 For Dawid himself said by the Set-Apart Spirit, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing said to my Adonai, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
41 And Yahooshua sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
2 And Yahooshua answering said to him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Kepha and Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan and Andri asked him privately,
5 And Yahooshua answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:
6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am The Anointed One of Yah; and shall deceive many.
14 But when you shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the Spokesman of Yah, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Yahooḏah flee to the mountains:
19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which Yah created to this time, neither shall be.
20 And except that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he has chosen, he has shortened the days.
21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is The Anointed One of Yah; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:
22 For false Anointed Ones and false Spokesmen of Yah shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
6 And Yahooshua said, Let her alone; why trouble you her? she has wrought a good work on me.
10 And Yahoowdah from Qerioth, one of the twelve, went to the Chief Priests, to betray him to them.
18 And as they sat and did eat, Yahooshua said, Verily I say to you, One of you which eats with me shall betray me.
22 And as they did eat, Yahooshua took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
25 Verily I say to you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the Kingdom of Yah.
27 And Yahooshua saith to them, All you shall stumble because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.
30 And Yahooshua saith to him, Verily I say to thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.
33 And he taketh with him Kepha and Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;
43 And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Yahoowdah, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the Chief Priests and the scribes and the elders.
48 And Yahooshua answered and said to them, Are you come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?
53 And they led Yahooshua away to the High Priest: and with him were assembled all the Chief Priests and the elders and the scribes.
55 And the Chief Priests and all the Sanhedrin sought for witness against Yahooshua to put him to death; and found none.
60 And the High Priest stood up in the midst, and asked Yahooshua, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the High Priest asked him, and said to him, Art thou The Anointed One of Yah, the Son of the Blessed?
62 And Yahooshua said, I am: and you shall see the Son of Adam sitting on the right hand of the Power, and coming in the clouds of Heaven.
67 And when she saw Kepha warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And thou also wast with Yahooshua of Natsareth.
72 And the second time the cock crew. And Kepha called to mind the word that Yahooshua said to him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.
AND straightway in the morning the Chief Priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole Sanhedrin, and bound Yahooshua, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Yahoodi’iy? And he answering said to him, Thou sayest it.
5 But Yahooshua yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will you that I release to you the King of the Yahoodi’iy?
12 And Pilate answered and said again to them, What will you then that I shall do to him whom you call the King of the Yahoodi’iy?
15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabba to them, and delivered Yahooshua, when he had scourged him, to be executed.
18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Yahoodi’iy!
32 Let the Anointed One of Yah the King of Yisra’El descend now from the stake, that we may see and believe. And they that were executed with him reviled him.
34 And at the ninth hour Yahooshua cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lemah sheḇaqtani? which is, being interpreted, My Mighty One, my Mighty One, why has thou forsaken me?
35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calls EliYahoo.
36 And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether EliYahoo will come to take him down.
37 And Yahooshua cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
39 And when the Captain, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the spirit, he said, Truly this man was the Son of Yah.
43 Yoseph of Ramathayim, an honourable counsel member, which also waited for the Kingdom of Yah, came, and went in boldly to Pilate, and craved the body of Yahooshua.
6 And he saith to them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Yahooshua of Natsareth, which was executed: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
9 Now when Yahooshua was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Miryam from Maḡdala, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
19 So then after Adonay had spoken to them, he was received up into Heaven, and sat on the right hand of Yah.
20 And they went forth, and preached everywhere, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Aměn.
Commentary:
It is widely believed that Luke was a Greek Physician who encountered Shaul {Paul} in Greece and was strongly converted such that thereafter he journeyed with Shaul and recorded his exploits as presented in the book of Acts. As a consequence all of what is recorded in the book of Luke regarding the time of Yahooshua on Earth, was based on second hand accounts that Luke acquired during his time with Shaul. As a consequence Yah says that some of what is contained in Luke and the early part of Acts is “folklore” and not entirely reliable. The genealogy of Yahooshua in Luke and the account of the death of Yahoowdah from Qerioth in Acts fall into this category and are incorrect. It is probable that the book of Luke was originally recorded in Greek.
Where the book of Luke disagrees with any of the other three Good News books it is generally the case that these other books are more likely to be correct.
Please read the Introduction and the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to Luke as well.

5 THERE was in the days of Herodes, the king of Yahooḏah, a certain priest named ZeḵarYah, of the course of AbiYah: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisheva.
6 And they were both righteous before Yah, walking in all the Commandments and ordinances of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, blameless.
8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before Yah in the order of his course,
9 According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
11 And there appeared to him an messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 And when ZeḵarYah saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13 But the messenger said to him, Fear not, ZeḵarYah: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisheva shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Yahoochanan.
15 For he shall be great in the sight of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Set-Apart Spirit, even from his mother’s womb.
16 And many of the children of Yisra’El shall he turn to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing their Mighty One.
17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of EliYahoo, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
18 And ZeḵarYah said to the messenger, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19 And the messenger answering said to him, I am Gaḇri’ěl, that stand in the presence of Yah; and am sent to speak to thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
21 And the people waited for ZeḵarYah, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
25 Thus has Yah the Eternally Self-Existing dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.
26 And in the sixth month the messenger Gaḇri’ěl was sent from Yah to a city of Galil, named Natsareth,
28 And the messenger came to her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly Chened, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
30 And the messenger said to her, Fear not, Miryam: for thou has found Chen with Yah.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Mighty One shall give to him the throne of his father Dawid:
35 And the messenger answered and said to her, The Set-Apart Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that Set-Apart thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of Yah.
37 For with Yah nothing shall be impossible.
38 And Miryam said, Behold the handmaid of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; be it to me according to thy word. And the messenger departed from her.
40 And entered into the house of ZeḵarYah, and saluted Elisheva.
45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
46 And Miryam said, My soul doth magnify Yah the Eternally Self-Existing,
47 And my spirit has rejoiced in Yah my Saviour.
58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how Yah the Eternally Self-Existing had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him ZeḵarYah, after the name of his father.
60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called Yahoochanan .
63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is Yahoochanan . And they marvelled all.
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised Yah.
65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Yahooḏah.
66 And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing was with him.
67 And his father ZeḵarYah was filled with the Set-Apart Spirit, and prophesied, saying,
68 Blessed be Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, Mighty One of Yisra’El; for he has visited and redeemed his people,
70 As he spake by the mouth of his Set-Apart Spokesmen of Yah, which have been since the world began:
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the Spokesman of Yah of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing to prepare his ways;
4 And Yoseph also went up from Galil, out of the city of Natsareth, into Yahooḏah, to the city of Dawid, which is called Beyth Leḥem; (because he was of the house and lineage of Dawid:)
9 And, lo, the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing stood before them, and the Kavod of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
11 For to you is born this day in the city of Dawid a Saviour, which is The Anointed One of Yah, Adonay.
13 And suddenly there was with the messenger a multitude of the Heavenly host praising Yah, and saying,
14 Kavod to Yah in the highest, and on Earth peace, good will toward men.
15 And it came to pass, as the Messengers were gone away from them into Heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even to Beyth Leḥem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has made known to us.
20 And the shepherds returned, Kavoding and praising Yah for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told to them.
22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moshe were accomplished, they brought him to Yerushalayim, to present him to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing;
23 (As it is written in the law of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called Set-Apart to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing;)
24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.
26 And it was revealed to him by the Set-Apart Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s Anointed One.
27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Yahooshua, to do for him after the custom of the law,
28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed Yah, and said,
29 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served Yah with fastings and prayers night and day.
38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Yerushalayim.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, they returned into Galil, to their own city Natsareth.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the Chen of Yah was upon him.
43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Yahooshua tarried behind in Yerushalayim; and Yoseph and his mother knew not of it.
52 And Yahooshua increased in wisdom and stature, and in Chen with Yah and man.
NOW in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cæsar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Yahooḏah, and Herodes being district ruler of Galil, and his brother Philip district ruler of Yetur and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the district ruler of Abilene,
2 Ḥannahs and Qayapha being the High Priests, the word of Yah came to Yahoochanan the son of ZeḵarYah in the wilderness.
4 As it is written in the book of the words of YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, make his paths straight.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of Yah.
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say to you, That Yah is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of Yahoochanan, whether he were The Anointed One of Yah, or not;
16 Yahoochanan answered, saying to them all, I indeed immerse you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall immerse you with the Set-Apart Spirit and with fire:
20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up Yahoochanan in prison.
21 Now when all the people were immersed, it came to pass, that Yahooshua also being immersed, and praying, the Heaven was opened,
23 And Yahooshua himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Yoseph, which was the son of Heli,
38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of Yah.
AND Yahooshua being full of the Set-Apart Spirit returned from Yarden, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
3 And the devil said to him, If thou be the Son of Yah, command this stone that it be made bread.
4 And Yahooshua answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of Yah.
8 And Yahooshua answered and said to him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One, and him only shalt thou serve.
9 And he brought him to Yerushalayim, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, If thou be the Son of Yah, cast thyself down from hence:
12 And Yahooshua answering said to him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One.
14 And Yahooshua returned in the power of the Spirit into Galil: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.
17 And there was delivered to him the book of the Spokesman of Yah YeshaYahoo. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
18 The Spirit of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the Good News to the poor; he has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
24 And he said, Verily I say to you, No Spokesman of Yah is accepted in his own country.
25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Yisra’El in the days of EliYahoo, when the Heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
26 But to none of them was EliYahoo sent, save to Tsarephath, a city of Tsiḏon, to a woman that was a widow.
27 And many lepers were in Yisra’El in the time of Elisha the Spokesman of Yah; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Surian.
34 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Yahooshua of Natsareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Set-Apart One of Yah.
35 And Yahooshua rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him, and hurt him not.
41 And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art The Anointed One of Yah the Son of Yah. And he rebuking them sufferted them not to speak: for they knew that he was The Anointed One of Yah.
43 And he said to them, I must preach the Kingdom of Yah to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
AND it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of Yah, he stood by the lake of Gennesar,
8 When Shim‛on Kepha saw it, he fell down at Yahooshua’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Adonay.
10 And so was also Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoochanan, the sons of Zaḇdai, which were partners with Shim‛on. And Yahooshua said to Shim‛on, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Yahooshua fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Adonay, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galil, and Yahooḏah, and Yerushalayim: and the power of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing was present to heal them.
19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his bed into the midst before Yahooshua.
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but Yah alone?
22 But when Yahooshua perceived their thoughts, he answering said to them, What reason you in your hearts?
25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, Kavoding Yah.
26 And they were all amazed, and they Kavod Yah, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.
31 And Yahooshua answering said to them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
33 And they said to him, Why do the disciples of Yahoochanan fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?
3 And Yahooshua answering them said, Have you not read so much as this, what Dawid did, when himself was hungry, and they which were with him;
4 How he went into the house of Yah, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
9 Then said Yahooshua to them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the Sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Yahooshua.
12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to Yah.
14 Shim‛on, (whom he also named Kepha,) and Andri his brother, Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan, Philip and Bartholomi,
15 MattihYahoo and T’oma, Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Alphai, and Shim‛on called Zelotes,
16 And Yahoowdah the brother of Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoowdah from Qerioth, which also was the traitor.
17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his followers, and a great multitude of people out of all Yahooḏah and Yerushalayim, and from the sea coast of Tsor and Tsiḏon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his followers, and said, Blessed be you poor: for yours is the Kingdom of Yah.
23 Rejoice you in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in Heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers to the Spokesmen of Yah.
26 Woe to you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false Spokesmen of Yah.
3 And when he heard of Yahooshua, he sent to him the elders of the Yahoodi’iy, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
4 And when they came to Yahooshua, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
6 Then Yahooshua went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the Captain sent friends to him, saying to him, Adonay, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
9 When Yahooshua heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said to the people that followed him, I say to you, I have not found so great Emunah, no, not in Yisra’El.
16 And there came a fear on all: and they Kavod Yah, saying, That a great Spokesman of Yah is risen up among us; and, That Yah has visited his people.
17 And this news of him went forth throughout all Yahooḏah, and throughout all the region round about.
18 And the followers of Yahoochanan shewed him of all these things.
19 And Yahoochanan calling to him two of his followers sent them to Yahooshua, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
20 When the men were come to him, they said, Yahoochanan Immerser has sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
22 Then Yahooshua answering said to them, Go your way, and tell Yahoochanan what things you have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the Good News is preached.
24 And when the messengers of Yahoochanan were departed, he began to speak to the people concerning Yahoochanan, What went you out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
26 But what went you out for to see? A Spokesman of Yah? Yea, I say to you, and much more than a Spokesman of Yah.
28 For I say to you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater Spokesman of Yah than Yahoochanan the Immerser: but he that is least in the Kingdom of Yah is greater than he.
29 And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified Yah, being immersed with the immersion of Yahoochanan .
30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of Yah against themselves, being not immersed of him.
33 For Yahoochanan the Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say, He has a devil.
37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Yahooshua sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a Spokesman of Yah, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
40 And Yahooshua answering said to him, Shim‛on, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
AND it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the Kingdom of Yah: and the twelve were with him,
10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Yah: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of Yah.
21 And he answered and said to them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of Yah, and do it.
28 When he saw Yahooshua, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Yahooshua, thou Son of Yah most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.
30 And Yahooshua asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many Demons were entered into him.
35 Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Yahooshua, and found the man, out of whom the Demons were departed, sitting at the feet of Yahooshua, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Yahooshua sent him away, saying,
39 Return to thine own house, and shew how great things Yah has done to thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Yahooshua had done to him.
40 And it came to pass, that, when Yahooshua was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him.
41 And, behold, there came a man named Ya’ir, and he was a ruler of the Synagogue: and he fell down at Yahooshua’ feet, and besought him that he would come into his house:
45 And Yahooshua said, Who touched me? When all denied, Kepha and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
46 And Yahooshua said, Somebody has touched me: for I perceive that power is gone out of me.
50 But when Yahooshua heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
51 And when he came into the house, he sufferted no man to go in, save Kepha, and Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoochanan, and the father and the mother of the maiden.
2 And he sent them to preach the Kingdom of Yah, and to heal the sick.
7 Now Herodes the district ruler heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that Yahoochanan was risen from the dead;
8 And of some, that EliYahoo had appeared; and of others, that one of the old Spokesmen of Yah was risen again.
9 And Herodes said, Yahoochanan have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.
11 And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake to them of the Kingdom of Yah, and healed them that had need of healing.
19 They answering said, Yahoochanan the Immerser; but some say, EliYahoo; and others say, that one of the old Spokesmen of Yah is risen again.
20 He said to them, But whom say you that I am? Kepha answering said, The Anointed One of Yah.
27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Kingdom of Yah.
28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Kepha and Yahoochanan and Ya‛aqoḇ, and went up into a mountain to pray.
30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moshe and EliYahoo:
33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Kepha said to Yahooshua, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moshe, and one for EliYahoo: not knowing what he said.
36 And when the voice was past, Yahooshua was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.
41 And Yahooshua answering said, O emunahless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.
42 And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and convulsed him. And Yahooshua rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father.
43 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of Yah. But while they wondered every one at all things which Yahooshua did, he said to his followers,
47 And Yahooshua, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,
49 And Yahoochanan answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
50 And Yahooshua said to him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.
54 And when his followers Ya‛aqoḇ and Yahoochanan saw this, they said, Adonay, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from Heaven, and consume them, even as EliYahoo did?
58 And Yahooshua said to him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Adam has not where to lay his head.
60 Yahooshua said to him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the Kingdom of Yah.
62 And Yahooshua said to him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of Yah.
AFTER these things Adonay Yahooshua appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.
2 Therefore said he to them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray you therefore Yah the Eternally Self-Existing of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The Kingdom of Yah is come nigh to you.
11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be you sure of this, that the Kingdom of Yah is come nigh to you.
21 In that hour Yahooshua rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Adonay of Heaven and Earth, that thou has hid these things from the wise and prudent, and has revealed them to babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
24 For I tell you, that many Spokesmen of Yah and kings have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.
27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thy Mighty One with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
29 But he, willing to justify himself, said to Yahooshua, And who is my neighbour?
30 And Yahooshua answering said, A certain man went down from Yerushalayim to Yeriḥo, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Yahooshua to him, Go, and do thou likewise.
39 And she had a sister called Miryam, which also sat at Yahooshua’ feet, and heard his word.
41 And Yahooshua answered and said to her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
AND it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his followers said to him, Adonay, teach us to pray, as Yahoochanan also taught his followers.
20 But if I with the finger of Yah cast out devils, no doubt the Kingdom of Yah is come upon you.
28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of Yah, and keep it.
29 And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Yonah the Spokesman of Yah.
39 And Adonay Yahooshua said to him, Now do you Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.
42 But woe to you, Pharisees! for you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of Yah: these ought you to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
47 Woe to you! for you build the Tombs of the Spokesmen of Yah, and your fathers killed them.
49 Therefore also said the wisdom of Yah, I will send them Spokesmen of Yah and Emissaries, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:
50 That the blood of all the Spokesmen of Yah, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
51 From the blood of Heḇel to the blood of ZeḵarYah, which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before Yah?
8 Also I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of Adam also confess before the Messengers of Yah:
9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the Messengers of Yah.
20 But Yah said to him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou has provided?
21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward Yah.
24 Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and Yah feeds them: how much more are you better than the fowls?
28 If then Yah so clothe grass, which is to day in the field, and tomorrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O you of little Emunah?
31 But rather seek you the Kingdom of Yah; and all these things shall be added to you.
42 And Adonay Yahooshua said, Who then is that emunahful and wise steward, whom his Adon shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
2 And Yahooshua answering said to them, Suppose you that these Galilæans were sinners above all the Galilæans, because they suffered such things?
12 And when Yahooshua saw her, he called her to him, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and Kavod Yah.
14 And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Yahooshua had healed on the Sabbath day, and said to the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.
18 Then said he, Unto what is the Kingdom of Yah like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?
20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the Kingdom of Yah?
28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham, and Yitshaq, and Ya’aqob, and all the Spokesmen of Yah, in the Kingdom of Yah, and you yourselves thrust out.
29 And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the Kingdom of Yah.
33 Nevertheless I must walk today, and tomorrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a Spokesman of Yah perish outside of Yerushalayim.
34 O Yerushalayim, Yerushalayim, which killest the Spokesmen of Yah, and stonest them that are sent to thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and you would not!
35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate: and verily I say to you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when you shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
3 And Yahooshua answering spake to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?
15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said to him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the Kingdom of Yah.
10 Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the Messengers of Yah over one sinner that repenteth.
13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve Yah and mammon.
15 And he said to them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but Yah knows your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of Yah.
16 The Torah and the Spokesmen of Yah were until Yahoochanan : since that time the Kingdom of Yah is preached, and every man presseth into it.
29 Abraham saith to him, They have Moshe and the Spokesmen of Yah; let them hear them.
31 And he said to him, If they hear not Moshe and the Spokesmen of Yah, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Yahooshua, Master, have mercy on us.
15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice Kavod Yah,
17 And Yahooshua answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
18 There are not found that returned to give Kavod to Yah, save this stranger.
20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the Kingdom of Yah should come, he answered them and said, The Kingdom of Yah cometh not with observation:
21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the Kingdom of Yah is within you.
2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not Yah, neither regarded man:
4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not Yah, nor regard man;
6 And Adonay Yahooshua said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7 And shall not Yah avenge his own elect, which cry day and night to him, though he bear long with them?
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, Yah, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes to Heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, Yah be merciful to me a sinner.
16 But Yahooshua called them to him, and said, Permit little children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the Kingdom of Yah.
17 Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of Yah as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
19 And Yahooshua said to him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, Yah.
22 Now when Yahooshua heard these things, he said to him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou has, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in Heaven: and come, follow me.
24 And when Yahooshua saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the Kingdom of Yah!
25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of Yah.
27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with Yah.
29 And he said to them, Verily I say to you, There is no man that has left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the Kingdom of Yah’s sake,
31 Then he took to him the twelve, and said to them, Behold, we go up to Yerushalayim, and all things that are written by the Spokesmen of Yah concerning the Son of Adam shall be accomplished.
37 And they told him, that Yahooshua of Natsareth passes by.
38 And he cried, saying, Yahooshua, thou Son of Dawid, have mercy on me.
40 And Yahooshua stood, and commanded him to be brought to him: and when he was come near, he asked him,
42 And Yahooshua said to him, Receive thy sight: thy Emunah has saved thee.
43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, Kavoding Yah: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to Yah.
AND Yahooshua entered and passed through Yeriḥo.
3 And he sought to see Yahooshua who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
5 And when Yahooshua came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said to him, Zakkai, make haste, and come down; for today I must abide at thy house.
9 And Yahooshua said to him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Yerushalayim, and because they thought that the Kingdom of Yah should immediately appear.
35 And they brought him to Yahooshua: and they cast their garments upon the foal, and they set Yahooshua thereon.
37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the followers began to rejoice and praise Yah with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: peace in Heaven, and Kavod in the highest.
4 The immersion of Yahoochanan, was it from Heaven, or of men?
6 But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that Yahoochanan was a Spokesman of Yah.
8 And Yahooshua said to them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, Yah forbid.
21 And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way of Yah truly:
25 And he said to them, Render therefore to Cæsar the things which be Cæsar’s, and to Yah the things which be Yah’s.
34 And Yahooshua answering said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal to the Messengers; and are the children of Yah, being the children of the resurrection.
37 Now that the dead are raised, even Moshe shewed at the bush, when he calls Yah the Eternally Self-Existing the Mighty One of Abraham, and the Mighty One of Yitshaq, and the Mighty One of Ya’aqob.
41 And he said to them, How say they that The Anointed One of Yah is Dawid’s son?
42 And Dawid himself saith in the book of Tehillim, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing said to my Adonay, Sit thou on my right hand,
4 For all these have of their abundance cast in to the offerings of Yah: but she of her poverty has cast in all the living that she had.
8 And he said, Take heed that you be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am The Anointed One of Yah; and the time draweth near: go you not therefore after them.
21 Then let them which are in Yahooḏah flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
31 So likewise you, when you see these things come to pass, know you that the Kingdom of Yah is nigh at hand.
3 Then entered Satan into Yahoowdah who was called from Qerioth, being of the number of the twelve.
8 And he sent Kepha and Yahoochanan, saying, Go and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat.
16 For I say to you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of Yah.
18 For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of Yah shall come.
47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Yahoowdah, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Yahooshua to kiss him.
48 But Yahooshua said to him, Yahoowdah, betrayest thou the Son of Adam with a kiss?
51 And Yahooshua answered and said, Permit you thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
52 Then Yahooshua said to the Chief Priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be you come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?
61 And Adonay Yahooshua turned, and looked upon Kepha. And Kepha remembered the word of Adonay, how he had said to him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
63 And the men that held Yahooshua mocked him, and smote him.
67 Art thou The Anointed One of Yah? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe:
69 Hereafter shall the Son of Adam sit on the right hand of the power of Yah.
70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of Yah? And he said to them, Ye say that I am.
2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tax to Cæsar, saying that he himself is The Anointed One of Yah a King.
3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Yahoodi’iy? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.
8 And when Herodes saw Yahooshua, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Yahooshua, spake again to them.
25 And he released to them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Yahooshua to their will.
26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Shim‛on, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the Stake, that he might bear it after Yahooshua.
28 But Yahooshua turning to them said, Daughters of Yerushalayim, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
34 Then said Yahooshua, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be The Anointed One of Yah, the chosen of Yah.
37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Yahoodi’iy, save thyself.
39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be The Anointed One of Yah, save thyself and us.
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear Yah, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
42 And he said to Yahooshua, Adonay, remember me when thou comest into thy Kingdom.
43 And Yahooshua said to him, Verily I say to thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
46 And when Yahooshua had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
47 Now when the Captain saw what was done, he Kavod Yah, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Ramathayim, a city of the Yahoodi’iy: who also himself waited for the Kingdom of Yah.
52 This man went to Pilate, and begged the body of Yahooshua.
3 And they entered in, and found not the body of Adonay Yahooshua.
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Yahooshua himself drew near, and went with them.
19 And he said to them, What things? And they said to him, Concerning Yahooshua of Natsareth, which was a Spokesman of Yah mighty in deed and word before Yah and all the people:
25 Then he said to them, O thoughtless ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the Spokesmen of Yah have spoken:
26 Ought not The Anointed One of Yah to have sufferted these things, and to enter into his Kavod?
27 And beginning at Moshe and all the Spokesmen of Yah, he explained to them in all the writings the things concerning himself.
36 And as they thus spake, Yahooshua himself stood in the midst of them, and saith to them, Peace be to you.
44 And he said to them, These are the words which I spake to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the Torah of Moshe, and in the Spokesmen of Yah, and in the Tehillim, concerning me.
46 And said to them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved The Anointed One of Yah to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing Yah. Aměn.
Book4: The Good News According to Yahoochanan {John}
Commentary:
This book is generally referred to as “The Gospel of Yahoochanan ” – John is correctly Yahoochanan which means “Yah has Graced” and Gospel is correctly “Good News”.
It is fairly widely considered that Yahoochanan was closest to Yahooshua and was most spiritually sensitive and so observed things that were missed by the other writers. Consider Yahoochanan 13:23 “Now there was leaning on Yahooshua’s {Jesus'} bosom one of his disciples, whom Yahooshua loved.”
Please read the Introduction and the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to Yahoochanan as well.

Chapter 1
IN the beginning Yah Commanded {the Word}, and the Command {Word} was given by Yah, and the Command {Word} was from Yah.
2 The same was in the beginning with Yah.
3 All things were made by him (Yah); and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him (Yah) was life; and the life was the light of men.
6 There was a man sent from Yah, whose name was Yahoochanan.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he authority to become the sons of Yah, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of Yah.
15 Yahoochanan bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
17 For the law was given by Moshe, but Chen and truth came by Yahooshua The Anointed One of Yah.
18 No man has seen Yah at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.
19 And this is the record of Yahoochanan, when the Yahoodi’iy sent priests and Levites from Yerushalayim to ask him, Who art thou?
20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Anointed One of Yah.
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou EliYahoo? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that Spokesman of Yah? And he answered, No.
23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, as said the Spokesman of Yah YeshaYahoo.
25 And they asked him, and said to him, Why immersest thou then, if thou be not that Anointed One of Yah, nor EliYahoo, neither that Spokesman of Yah?
26 Yahoochanan answered them, saying, I immerse with water: but there stands one among you, whom you know not;
28 These things were done in Běyth AnYah beyond Yarden, where Yahoochanan was baptizing.
29 The next day Yahoochanan seeth Yahooshua coming to him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of Yah, which taketh away the sin of the world.
32 And Yahoochanan bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from Heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of Yah.
35 Again the next day after Yahoochanan stood, and two of his followers;
36 And looking upon Yahooshua as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of Yah!
37 And the two followers heard him speak, and they followed Yahooshua.
38 Then Yahooshua turned, and saw them following, and saith to them, What seek you? They said to him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher,) where dwellest thou?
40 One of the two which heard Yahoochanan speak, and followed him, was Andri, Shim‛on Kepha’s brother.
41 He first findeth his own brother Shim‛on, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah, which is, being interpreted, The Anointed One of Yah.
42 And he brought him to Yahooshua. And when Yahooshua beheld him, he said, Thou art Shim‛on the son of Yonah: thou shalt be called Kěpha, which is by interpretation, A stone.
43 The day following Yahooshua wanted to go forth into Galil, and found Philip, and saith to him, Follow me.
45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him, of whom Moshe in the law, and the Spokesmen of Yah {Prophets}, did write, Yahooshua of Natsareth, the son of Yoseph.
47 Yahooshua saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Yisra’Elite indeed, in whom is no guile!
48 Nathanael saith to him, Whence knowest thou me? Yahooshua answered and said to him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49 Nathanael answered and saith to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of Yah; thou art the King of Yisra’El.
50 Yahooshua answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 And he saith to him, Verily, verily, I say to you, Hereafter you shall see Heaven open, and the Messengers of Yah ascending and descending upon the Son of Adam.
Chapter 2
AND the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galil; and the mother of Yahooshua was there:
2 And both Yahooshua was called, and his followers, to the marriage.
3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Yahooshua saith to him, They have no wine.
4 Yahooshua saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Yahoodi’iy, containing two or three measures apiece.
7 Yahooshua saith to them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
11 This beginning of miracles did Yahooshua in Cana of Galil, and manifested forth his Kavod; and his followers believed on him.
13 And the Yahoodi’iy’ Passover was at hand, and Yahooshua went up to Yerushalayim,
18 Then answered the Yahoodi’iy and said to him, What sign shewest thou to us, seeing that thou doest these things?
19 Yahooshua answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Yahoodi’iy, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his followers remembered that he had said this to them; and they believed the writings, and the word which Yahooshua had said.
24 But Yahooshua did not commit himself to them, because he knew all men,
Chapter 3
THERE was a man of the Pharisees, named Naḵdimon, a ruler of the Yahoodi’iy:
2 The same came to Yahooshua by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from Yah: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except Yah be with him.
3 Yahooshua answered and said to him, Verily, verily, I say to thee, Except a man be born from above, he cannot see the Kingdom of Yah.
5 Yahooshua answered, Verily, verily, I say to thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of Yah.
10 Yahooshua answered and said to him, Art thou a Teacher of Yisra’El, and knowest not these things?
16 For Yah so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For Yah sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of Yah.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in Yah.
22 After these things came Yahooshua and his followers into the land of Yahooḏah; and there he tarried with them, and immersed.
23 And Yahoochanan also was baptizing in Ayin near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were immersed.
24 For Yahoochanan was not yet cast into prison.
25 Then there arose a question between some of Yahoochanan ’s followers and the Yahoodi’iy about purifying.
26 And they came to Yahoochanan, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Yarden, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same immerseth, and all men come to him.
27 Yahoochanan answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from Heaven.
28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Anointed One of Yah, but that I am sent before him.
33 He that has received his testimony has set to his seal that Yah is true.
34 For he whom Yah has sent speaks the words of Yah: for Yah gives not the Spirit by measure to him.
36 He that believeth on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of Yah abideth on him.
Chapter 4
WHEN therefore Adonay knew how the Pharisees had heard that Yahooshua made and immersed more followers than Yahoochanan,
2 (Though Yahooshua himself immersed not, but his followers,)
3 He left Yahooḏah, and departed again into Galil.
6 Now Ya’aqob’s well was there. Yahooshua therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Yahooshua saith to her, Give me to drink.
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria to him, How is it that thou, being a Yahoodi’iy, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Yahoodi’iy have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Yahooshua answered and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of Yah, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
13 Yahooshua answered and said to her, Whosoever drinks of this water shall thirst again:
16 Yahooshua saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Yahooshua said to her, Thou has well said, I have no husband:
19 The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a Spokesman of Yah.
21 Yahooshua saith to her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when you shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Yerushalayim, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship you know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Yahoodi’iy.
24 Yah is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh, which is called The Anointed One of Yah: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Yahooshua saith to her, I that speak to thee am he.
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Anointed One of Yah?
34 Yahooshua saith to them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
42 And said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Anointed One of Yah, the Saviour of the world.
44 For Yahooshua himself testified, that a Spokesman of Yah has no honour in his own country.
46 So Yahooshua came again into Cana of Galil, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Kephar Naḥum.
47 When he heard that Yahooshua was come out of Yahooḏah into Galil, he went to him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.
48 Then said Yahooshua to him, Except you see signs and wonders, you will not believe.
50 Yahooshua saith to him, Go thy way; thy son lives. And the man believed the word that Yahooshua had spoken to him, and he went his way.
53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Yahooshua said to him, Thy son lives: and himself believed, and his whole house.
54 This is again the second miracle that Yahooshua did, when he was come out of Yahooḏah into Galil.
Chapter 5
AFTER this there was a feast of the Yahoodi’iy; and Yahooshua went up to Yerushalayim.
6 When Yahooshua saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith to him, Wilt thou be made whole?
8 Yahooshua saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
10 The Yahoodi’iy therefore said to him that was cured, It is the Sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Yahooshua had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
14 Afterward Yahooshua findeth him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come to thee.
15 The man departed, and told the Yahoodi’iy that it was Yahooshua, which had made him whole.
16 And therefore did the Yahoodi’iy persecute Yahooshua, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the Sabbath day.
17 But Yahooshua answered them, My Father works hitherto, and I work.
18 Therefore the Yahoodi’iy sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the Sabbath, but said also that Yah was his Father, making himself equal with Yah.
19 Then answered Yahooshua and said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
25 Verily, verily, I say to you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of Yah: and they that hear shall live.
33 Ye sent to Yahoochanan, and he bare witness to the truth.
36 But I have greater witness than that of Yahoochanan: for the works which the Father has given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me.
42 But I know you, that you have not the love of Yah in you.
44 How can you believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from Yah only?
Chapter 6
AFTER these things Yahooshua went over the sea of Galil, which is Lake Kinnereth.
3 And Yahooshua went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his followers.
4 And the Passover, a feast of the Yahoodi’iy, was nigh.
5 When Yahooshua then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come to him, he saith to Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
10 And Yahooshua said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Yahooshua took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the followers, and the followers to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Yahooshua did, said, This is of a truth that Spokesman of Yah that should come into the world.
15 When Yahooshua therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Kephar Naḥum. And it was now dark, and Yahooshua was not come to them.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Yahooshua walking on the sea, and drawing nigh to the ship: and they were afraid.
22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his followers were entered, and that Yahooshua went not with his followers into the boat, but that his followers were gone away alone;
24 When the people therefore saw that Yahooshua was not there, neither his followers, they also took shipping, and came to Kephar Naḥum, seeking for Yahooshua.
26 Yahooshua answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because you saw the miracles, but because you did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth to everlasting life, which the Son of Adam shall give to you: for him has Yah the Father sealed.
28 Then said they to him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of Yah?
29 Yahooshua answered and said to them, This is the work of Yah, that you believe on him whom he has sent.
32 Then Yahooshua said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Moshe gave you not that bread from Heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread from Heaven.
33 For the bread of Yah is he which cometh down from Heaven, and gives life to the world.
35 And Yahooshua said to them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
41 The Yahoodi’iy then grumbled against him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from Heaven.
42 And they said, Is not this Yahooshua, the son of Yoseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from Heaven?
43 Yahooshua therefore answered and said to them, grumble not among yourselves.
45 It is written in the Spokesmen of Yah, And they shall be all taught of Yah. Every man therefore that has heard, and has learned of the Father, cometh to me.
46 Not that any man has seen the Father, save he which is of Yah, he has seen the Father.
52 The Yahoodi’iy therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
53 Then Yahooshua said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Except you eat the flesh of the Son of Adam, and drink his blood, you have no life in you.
61 When Yahooshua knew in himself that his followers murmured at it, he said to them, does this offend you?
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Yahooshua knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
67 Then said Yahooshua to the twelve, Will you also go away?
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Anointed One of Yah, the Son of the living Mighty One.
70 Yahooshua answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Yahoowdah from Qerioth the son of Shim‛on: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
Chapter 7
AFTER these things Yahooshua walked in Galil: for he would not walk in Yahuḏah, because the Yahoodi’iy sought to kill him.
2 Now the Yahoodi’iy’ Feast of Tabernacles was at hand.
3 His brethren therefore said to him, Depart hence, and go into Yahooḏah, that thy followers also may see the works that thou doest.
6 Then Yahooshua said to them, My time is not yet come: but your time is always ready.
11 Then the Yahoodi’iy sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Yahoodi’iy.
14 Now about the midst of the feast Yahooshua went up into the temple, and taught.
15 And the Yahoodi’iy marvelled, saying, How knows this man letters, having never learned?
16 Yahooshua answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of Yah, or whether I speak of myself.
21 Yahooshua answered and said to them, I have done one work, and you all marvel.
26 But, lo, he speaks boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Anointed One of Yah?
27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when the Anointed One of Yah cometh, no man knows whence he is.
28 Then cried Yahooshua in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom you know not.
31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When The Anointed One of Yah cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man has done?
33 Then said Yahooshua to them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go to him that sent me.
35 Then said the Yahoodi’iy said among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go to the dispersed among the Ha-goyim, and teach the Ha-goyim?
37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Yahooshua stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.
39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Set-Apart Spirit was not yet given; because that Yahooshua was not yet Kavod.)
40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Spokesman of Yah.
41 Others said, This is the Anointed One of Yah. But some said, Shall The Anointed One of Yah come out of Galil?
42 Hath not the scripture said, That The Anointed One of Yah cometh of the seed of Dawid, and out of the town of Beyth Leḥem, where Dawid was?
50 Naḵdimon saith to them, (he that came to Yahooshua by night, being one of them,)
52 They answered and said to him, Art thou also of Galil? Search, and look: for out of Galil ariseth no Spokesman of Yah.
Chapter 8
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Yahooshua stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even to the last: and Yahooshua was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Yahooshua had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? has no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Adonay. And Yahooshua said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Then spake Yahooshua again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
14 Yahooshua answered and said to them, Though I bear witness of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but you cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
19 Then said they to him, Where is thy Father? Yahooshua answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if you had known me, you should have known my Father also.
20 These words spake Yahooshua in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
21 Then said Yahooshua again to them, I go my way, and you shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, you cannot come.
22 Then said the Yahoodi’iy, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, you cannot come.
25 Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Yahooshua saith to them, Even the same that I said to you from the beginning.
28 Then said Yahooshua to them, When you have lifted up the Son of Adam, then shall you know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father has taught me, I speak these things.
31 Then said Yahooshua to those Yahoodi’iy which believed on him, If you continue in my word, then are you my followers indeed;
34 Yahooshua answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
39 They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Yahooshua saith to them, If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now you seek to kill me, a man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of Yah: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even Yah.
42 Yahooshua said to them, If Yah were your Father, you would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from Yah; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
47 He that is of Yah heareth Yah’s words: you therefore hear them not, because you are not of Yah.
48 Then answered the Yahoodi’iy, and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and has a devil?
49 Yahooshua answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and you do dishonour me.
52 Then said the Yahoodi’iy to him, Now we know that thou has a devil. Abraham is dead, and the Spokesmen of Yah; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the Spokesmen of Yah are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Yahooshua answered, If I Kavod myself, my Kavod is nothing: it is my Father that Kavod me; of whom you say, that he is your Mighty One:
57 Then said the Yahoodi’iy to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and has thou seen Abraham?
58 Yahooshua said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I was.
59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Yahooshua hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Chapter 9
AND as Yahooshua passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
3 Yahooshua answered, Neither has this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of Yah should be made manifest in him.
11 He answered and said, A man that is called Yahooshua made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Shiloaḥ, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
14 And it was the Sabbath day when Yahooshua made the clay, and opened his eyes.
16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of Yah, because he keepeth not the Sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17 They say to the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he has opened thine eyes? He said, He is a Spokesman of Yah.
18 But the Yahoodi’iy did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
22 These words spake his parents, because they feared the Yahoodi’iy: for the Yahoodi’iy had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was the Anointed One of Yah, he should be put out of the synagogue.
24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said to him, Give Yah the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
29 We know that Yah spake to Moshe: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
31 Now we know that Yah heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of Yah, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
33 If this man were not of Yah, he could do nothing.
35 Yahooshua heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said to him, Dost thou believe on the Son of Yah?
37 And Yahooshua said to him, Thou has both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
39 And Yahooshua said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
41 Yahooshua said to them, If you were blind, you should have no sin: but now you say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
Chapter 10
6 This parable spake Yahooshua to them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake to them.
7 Then said Yahooshua to them again, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
19 There was a division therefore again among the Yahoodi’iy for these sayings.
23 And Yahooshua walked in the temple in Shelomoh’s porch.
24 Then came the Yahoodi’iy round about him, and said to him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Anointed One of Yah, tell us plainly.
25 Yahooshua answered them, I told you, and you believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.
31 Then the Yahoodi’iy took up stones again to stone him.
32 Yahooshua answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do you stone me?
33 The Yahoodi’iy answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself Yah.
34 Yahooshua answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are mighty ones?
35 If he called them mighty ones, to whom the word of Yah came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36 Say you of him, whom the Father has sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of Yah?
40 And went away again beyond Yarden into the place where Yahoochanan at first immersed; and there he abode.
41 And many came to him, and said, Yahoochanan did no miracle: but all things that Yahoochanan spake of this man were true.
Chapter 11
4 When Yahooshua heard that, he said, This sickness is not to death, but for the Kavod of Yah, that the Son of Yah might be Kavod thereby.
5 Now Yahooshua Chesed Martha, and her sister, and El‛azar.
7 Then after that saith he to his followers, Let us go into Yahooḏah again.
8 His followers say to him, Master, the Yahoodi’iy of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9 Yahooshua answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
13 Howbeit Yahooshua spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14 Then said Yahooshua to them plainly, El‛azar is dead.
17 Then when Yahooshua came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.
19 And many of the Yahoodi’iy came to Martha and Miryam, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Yahooshua was coming, went and met him: but Miryam sat still in the house.
21 Then said Martha to Yahooshua, Adonay, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of Yah, Yah will give it thee.
23 Yahooshua saith to her, Thy brother shall rise again.
25 Yahooshua said to her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
27 She saith to him, Yea, Adonay: I believe that thou art the Anointed One of Yah, the Son of Yah, which should come into the world.
30 Now Yahooshua was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.
31 The Yahoodi’iy then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Miryam, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goes to the grave to weep there.
32 Then when Miryam was come where Yahooshua was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, Adonay, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 When Yahooshua therefore saw her weeping, and the Yahoodi’iy also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
35 Yahooshua wept.
36 Then said the Yahoodi’iy, Behold how he Chesed him!
38 Yahooshua therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39 Yahooshua said, Take you away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him, Adonay, by this time he stinketh: for he has been dead four days.
40 Yahooshua saith to her, Said I not to thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the Kavod of Yah?
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Yahooshua lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou has heard me.
44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Yahooshua saith to them, Loose him, and let him go.
45 Then many of the Yahoodi’iy which came to Miryam, and had seen the things which Yahooshua did, believed on him.
46 But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Yahooshua had done.
51 And this spake he not of himself: but being High Priest that year, he prophesied that Yahooshua should die for that nation;
52 And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of Yah that were scattered abroad.
54 Yahooshua therefore walked no more openly among the Yahoodi’iy; but went thence to a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephrayim, and there continued with his followers.
55 And the Yahoodi’iy’ Passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Yerushalayim before the Passover, to purify themselves.
56 Then sought they for Yahooshua, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think you, that he will not come to the feast?
Chapter 12
THEN Yahooshua six days before the Passover came to Beyth Anyah, where El‛azar was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
3 Then took Miryam a pound of perfume of nard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Yahooshua, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4 Then saith one of his followers, Yahoowdah from Qerioth, Shim‛on’s son, which should betray him,
7 Then said Yahooshua, Let her alone: against the day of my burying has she kept this.
9 Much people of the Yahoodi’iy therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Yahooshua’ sake only, but that they might see El‛azar also, whom he had raised from the dead.
11 Because that by reason of him many of the Yahoodi’iy went away, and believed on Yahooshua.
12 On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Yahooshua was coming to Yerushalayim,
13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hoshia-na: Blessed is the King of Yisra’El that cometh in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
14 And Yahooshua, when he had found a young foal, sat thereon; as it is written,
16 These things understood not his followers at the first: but when Yahooshua was Kavod, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things to him.
21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Beyth Tsaiḏa of Galil, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Yahooshua.
22 Philip cometh and telleth Andri: and again Andri and Philip tell Yahooshua.
23 And Yahooshua answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of Adam should be Kavod.
30 Yahooshua answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that The Anointed One of Yah abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of Adam must be lifted up? who is this Son of Adam?
35 Then Yahooshua said to them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knows not whither he goes.
36 While you have light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things spake Yahooshua, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
38 That the saying of YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah might be fulfilled, which he spake, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing been revealed?
39 Therefore they could not believe, because that YeshaYahoo said again,
41 These things said YeshaYahoo, when he saw his Kavod, and spake of him.
43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of Yah.
44 Yahooshua cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
Chapter 13
NOW before the feast of the Passover, when Yahooshua knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having Chesed his own which were in the world, he Chesed them to the end.
2 And supper being ended, the devil having already put into the heart of Yahoowdah from Qerioth, Shim‛on’s son, to betray him;
3 Yahooshua knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from Yah, and went to Yah;
7 Yahooshua answered and said to him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
8 Kepha saith to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Yahooshua answered him, If I wash thee not, thou has no part with me.
10 Yahooshua saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and you are clean, but not all.
21 When Yahooshua had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you shall betray me.
23 Now there was leaning on Yahooshua’ bosom one of his followers, whom Yahooshua Chesed.
25 He then lying on Yahooshua’ breast saith to him, Adonay, who is it?
26 Yahooshua answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a piece of bread, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the bread, he gave it to Yahoowdah from Qerioth, the son of Shim‛on.
27 And after the bread Satan entered into him. Then said Yahooshua to him, That thou doest, do quickly.
29 For some of them thought, because Yahoowdah had the bag, that Yahooshua had said to him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Yahooshua said, Now is the Son of Adam Kavod, and Yah is Kavod in him.
32 If Yah be Kavod in him, Yah shall also Kavod him in himself, and shall straightway Kavod him.
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said to the Yahoodi’iy, Whither I go, you cannot come; so now I say to you.
36 Shim‛on Kepha said to him, Adonay, whither goest thou? Yahooshua answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
38 Yahooshua answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say to thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou has denied me thrice.
Chapter 14
LET not your heart be troubled: you believe in Yah, believe also in me.
6 Yahooshua saith to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh to the Father, but by me.
9 Yahooshua saith to him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet has thou not known me, Philip? he that has seen me has seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
22 Yahoowdah saith to him, not from Qerioth, Adonay, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself to us, and not to the world?
23 Yahooshua answered and said to him, If a man Chesed me, he will keep my words: and my Father will Chesed him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him.
Chapter 16
2 They shall put you out of the Synagogues (congregations): yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth Yah service.
19 Now Yahooshua knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said to them, Do you inquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and you shall not see me: and again, a little while, and you shall see me?
27 For the Father himself Chesedth you, because you have Cheseded me, and have believed that I came out from Yah.
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from Yah.
31 Yahooshua answered them, Do you now believe?
Chapter 17
THESE words spake Yahooshua, and lifted up his eyes to Heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; Kavod thy Son, that thy Son also may Kavod thee:
3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true Yah, and Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, whom thou has sent.
Chapter 18
WHEN Yahooshua had spoken these words, he went forth with his followers over the Qiḏron torrent, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his followers.
2 And Yahoowdah also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Yahooshua ofttimes resorted thither with his followers.
3 Yahoowdah then, having received a company of soldiers and officers from the Chief Priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 Yahooshua therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said to them, Whom seek you?
5 They answered him, Yahooshua of Natsareth. Yahooshua saith to them, I am he. And Yahoowdah also, which betrayed him, stood with them.
7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek you? And they said, Yahooshua of Natsareth.
8 Yahooshua answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore you seek me, let these go their way:
11 Then said Yahooshua to Kepha, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?
12 Then the soldiers and the captain and officers of the Yahoodi’iy took Yahooshua, and bound him,
14 Now Qayapha was he, which gave counsel to the Yahoodi’iy, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 And Shim‛on Kepha followed Yahooshua, and so did another follower: that follower was known to the High Priest, and went in with Yahooshua into the palace of the High Priest.
19 The High Priest then asked Yahooshua of his followers, and of his doctrine.
20 Yahooshua answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Yahoodi’iy always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.
22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Yahooshua with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the High Priest so?
23 Yahooshua answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?
28 Then led they Yahooshua from Qayapha to the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the Passover.
31 Then said Pilate to them, Take you him, and judge him according to your law. The Yahoodi’iy therefore said to him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
32 That the saying of Yahooshua might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.
33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Yahooshua, and said to him, Art thou the King of the Yahoodi’iy?
34 Yahooshua answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?
35 Pilate answered, Am I a Yahoodi’iy? Thine own nation and the Chief Priests have delivered thee to me: what has thou done?
36 Yahooshua answered, My Kingdom is not of this world: if my Kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Yahoodi’iy: but now is my Kingdom not from hence.
37 Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a king then? Yahooshua answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
38 Pilate saith to him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again to the Yahoodi’iy, and saith to them, I find in him no fault at all.
39 But you have a custom, that I should release to you one at the Passover: will you therefore that I release to you the King of the Yahoodi’iy?
Chapter 19
THEN Pilate therefore took Yahooshua, and scourged him.
3 And said, Hail, King of the Yahoodi’iy! and they smote him with their hands.
5 Then came Yahooshua forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith to them, Behold the man!
7 The Yahoodi’iy answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of Yah.
9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith to Yahooshua, Whence art thou? But Yahooshua gave him no answer.
11 Yahooshua answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me to thee has the greater sin.
12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Yahoodi’iy cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Cæsar’s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaks against Cæsar.
13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Yahooshua forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
14 And it was the preparation of the Passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith to the Yahoodi’iy, Behold your King!
16 Then delivered he him therefore to them to be executed. And they took Yahooshua, and led him away.
18 Where they executed him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Yahooshua in the midst.
20 This title then read many of the Yahoodi’iy: for the place where Yahooshua was executed was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
21 Then said the Chief Priests of the Yahoodi’iy to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Yahoodi’iy; but that he said, I am King of the Yahoodi’iy.
23 Then the soldiers, when they had executed Yahooshua, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
25 Now there stood by the Stake of Yahooshua his mother, and his mother’s sister, Miryam the wife of Qlophah, and Miryam from Maḡdala.
26 When Yahooshua therefore saw his mother, and the follower standing by, whom he Cheseded, he saith to his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
28 After this, Yahooshua knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
30 When Yahooshua therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
31 The Yahoodi’iy therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the Stake on the Sabbath day, (for that Sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
33 But when they came to Yahooshua, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
38 And after this Yoseph of Ramathayim, being a follower of Yahooshua, but secretly for fear of the Yahoodi’iy, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Yahooshua: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Yahooshua.
39 And there came also Naḵdimon, which at the first came to Yahooshua by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pounds weight.
40 Then took they the body of Yahooshua, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Yahoodi’iy is to bury.
42 There laid they Yahooshua therefore because of the Yahoodi’iy’ preparation day; for the Tomb was nigh at hand.
Chapter 20
2 Then she runneth, and cometh to Shim‛on Kepha, and to the other follower, whom Yahooshua Cheseded, and saith to them, They have taken away Adonay out of the Tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.
12 And seeth two Messengers in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Yahooshua had lain.
14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Yahooshua standing, and knew not that it was Yahooshua.
15 Yahooshua saith to her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith to him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou has laid him, and I will take him away.
16 Yahooshua saith to her, Miryam. She turned herself, and saith to him, Rabboni; which is to say, Teacher.
17 Yahooshua saith to her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say to them, I ascend to my Father, and your Father; and to my Mighty One, and your Mighty One.
19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the followers were assembled for fear of the Yahoodi’iy, came Yahooshua and stood in the midst, and saith to them, Peace be to you.
21 Then said Yahooshua to them again, Peace be to you: as my Father has sent me, even so send I you.
24 But T’oma, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Yahooshua came.
26 And after eight days again his followers were within, and T’oma with them: then came Yahooshua, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be to you.
29 Yahooshua saith to him, T’oma, because thou has seen me, thou has believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
30 And many other signs truly did Yahooshua in the presence of his followers, which are not written in this book:
31 But these are written, that you might believe that Yahooshua is the Anointed One of Yah, the Son of Yah; and that believing you might have life through his name.
Chapter 21
AFTER these things Yahooshua shewed himself again to the followers at the sea of Kinnereth; and on this wise shewed he himself.
4 But when the morning was now come, Yahooshua stood on the shore: but the followers knew not that it was Yahooshua.
5 Then Yahooshua saith to them, Children, have you any meat? They answered him, No.
7 Therefore that follower whom Yahooshua Cheseded saith to Kepha, It is Adonay. Now when Shim‛on Kepha heard that it was Adonay, he girt his fisher’s coat to him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.
10 Yahooshua saith to them, Bring of the fish which you have now caught.
12 Yahooshua saith to them, Come and dine. And none of the followers durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was Adonay.
13 Yahooshua then cometh, and taketh bread, and gives them, and fish likewise.
14 This is now the third time that Yahooshua shewed himself to his followers, after that he was risen from the dead.
15 So when they had dined, Yahooshua saith to Shim‛on Kepha, Shim‛on, son of Yonah, Chesedst thou me more than these? He saith to him, Yea, Adonay; thou knowest that I Chesed thee. He saith to him, Feed my lambs.
17 He saith to him the third time, Shim‛on, son of Yonah, Chesedst thou me? Kepha was grieved because he said to him the third time, Chesedst thou me? And he said to him, Adonay, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I Chesed thee. Yahooshua saith to him, Feed my sheep.
19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should Kavod Yah. And when he had spoken this, he saith to him, Follow me.
20 Then Kepha, turning about, seeth the follower whom Yahooshua Cheseded following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Adonay, which is he that betrayeth thee?
21 Kepha seeing him saith to Yahooshua, Adonay, and what shall this man do?
22 Yahooshua saith to him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.
23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that follower should not die: yet Yahooshua said not to him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?
25 And there are also many other things which Yahooshua did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Aměn.
- 3: The Acts of the Emissaries {
Apostles}
Commentary:
This book reports various activities in the lives of the Emissaries {Apostles}meaning “sent one’s” – those sent by Yah and Yahooshua to bring the Good News {Gospel}to others. Primarily Shaul {Paul}
Emissaries exist today just the same but many are not recognized as such.
The book of Acts is generally attributed to Luke, the writer of the Good News according to Luke.
Please read the Introduction and the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to Acts as well.

Chapter 1
THE former treatise have I made, O Theophilos, of all that Yahooshua began both to do and teach,
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his suffering (passion) by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of Yah:
5 For Yahoochanan truly immersed with water; but you shall be immersed with the Set-Apart Spirit not many days hence.
8 But you shall receive power, after that the Set-Apart Spirit is come upon you: and you shall be witnesses to me both in Yerushalayim, and in all Yahooḏah, and in Samaria, and to the uttermost part of the Earth.
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galil, why stand you gazing up into Heaven? this same Yahooshua, which is taken up from you into Heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into Heaven.
13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Kepha, and Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yahoochanan, and Andri, Philip, and T’oma, Bartholomi, and MattihYahoo, Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Alphai, and Shim‛on Zelotes, and Yahoowdah the brother of Ya‛aqoḇ.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Miryam the mother of Yahooshua, and with his brethren.
16 Men and brethren, this writing must needs have been fulfilled, which the Set-Apart Spirit by the mouth of Dawid spake before concerning Yahoowdah, which was guide to them that took Yahooshua.
21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that Adonay Yahooshua went in and out among us,
22 Beginning from the immersion of Yahoochanan, to that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
23 And they appointed two, Yoseph called Barsabba, who was surnamed Justus, and MattithYahoo.
25 That he may take part of this ministry and Emissarieship, from which Yahoowdah by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon MattithYahoo; and he was numbered with the eleven Emissaries.
Chapter 2
5 And there were dwelling at Yerushalayim Yahoodi’iy, devout men, out of every nation under Heaven.
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Aram Naharayim, and in Yahooḏah, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Mitsrayim, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, Yahoodi’iy and converts,
11 Cretans and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of Yah.
14 But Kepha, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Ye men of Yahooḏah, and all you that dwell at Yerushalayim, be this known to you, and hearken to my words:
16 But this is that which was spoken by the Spokesman of Yah Yo’ěl;
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith Yah, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing come:
21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing shall be saved.
22 Ye men of Yisra’El, hear these words; Yahooshua of Natsareth, a man approved of Yah among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which Yah did by him in the midst of you, as you yourselves also know:
23 Him, being delivered by the set purpose and foreknowledge of Yah, you have taken, and by wicked hands have executed and slain:
24 Whom Yah has raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he could be held in its grip.
25 For Dawid speaks concerning him, I foresaw Yah the Eternally Self-Existing always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
30 Therefore being a Spokesman of Yah, and knowing that Yah had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up the Anointed One of Yah to sit on his throne;
31 He seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of the Anointed One of Yah, that his soul was not left in Hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
32 This Yahooshua has Yah raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33 Therefore being by the right hand of Yah exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Set-Apart Spirit, he has poured forth this, which you now see and hear.
34 For Dawid is not ascended into the Heavens: but he saith himself, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing said to my Adonay, Sit thou on my right hand,
36 Therefore let all the house of Yisra’El know assuredly, that Yah has made that same Yahooshua, whom you have executed, both Adonay and Anointed One of Yah.
38 Then Kepha said to them, Repent, and be immersed every one of you in the name of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Set-Apart Spirit.
39 For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as Yah the Eternally Self-Existing our Mighty One shall call.
47 Praising Yah, and having Chen with all the people. And Yah the Eternally Self-Existing added to the assembly daily such as should be saved.
Chapter 3
NOW Kepha and Yahoochanan went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
3 Who seeing Kepha and Yahoochanan about to go into the temple asked for alms.
4 And Kepha, fastening his eyes upon him with Yahoochanan, said, Look on us.
6 Then Kepha said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah of Natsareth rise up and walk.
8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising Yah.
9 And all the people saw him walking and praising Yah:
11 And as the lame man which was healed held Kepha and Yahoochanan, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Shelomoh’s, greatly wondering.
13 The Mighty One of Abraham, and of Yitshaq, and of Ya’aqob, the Mighty One of our fathers, has Kavod his Son Yahooshua; whom you delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom Yah has raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
18 But those things, which Yah before had shewed by the mouth of all his Spokesmen of Yah, that the Anointed One of Yah should suffer, he has so fulfilled.
19 Repent you therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing;
20 And he shall send Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, which before was preached to you:
21 Whom the Heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which Yah has spoken by the mouth of all his Set-Apart Spokesmen of Yah since the world began.
22 For Moshe truly said to the fathers, A Spokesman of Yah shall Yah the Eternally Self-Existing your Yah raise up to you of your brethren, like to me; him shall you hear in all things whatsoever he shall say to you.
23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that Spokesman of Yah, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24 Yea, and all the Spokesmen of Yah from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the Spokesmen of Yah, and of the covenant which Yah made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the Earth be blessed.
26 Unto you first Yah, having raised up his Son Yahooshua, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
Chapter 4
2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Yahooshua the resurrection from the dead.
6 And Ḥannahs the High Priest, and Qayapha, and Yahoochanan, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the High Priest, were gathered together at Yerushalayim.
10 Be it known to you all, and to all the people of Yisra’El, that by the name of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah of Natsareth, whom you executed, whom Yah raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Kepha and Yahoochanan, and perceived that they were unlearned and ordinary men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Yahooshua.
18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Yahooshua.
19 But Kepha and Yahoochanan answered and said to them, Whether it be right in the sight of Yah to hearken to you more than to Yah, judge you.
21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men Kavod Yah for that which was done.
24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to Yah with one accord, and said, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, thou art Almighty, which has made Heaven, and Earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
26 The kings of the Earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and against his Anointed One.
27 For of a truth against thy Set-Apart child Yahooshua, whom thou has anointed, both Herodes, and Pontius Pilate, with the Ha-goyim, and the people of Yisra’El, were gathered together,
29 And now, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, behold their threats: and grant to thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy Set-Apart child Yahooshua.
31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Set-Apart Spirit, and they spake the word of Yah with boldness.
33 And with great power gave the Emissaries witness of the resurrection of Adonay Yahooshua: and great Chen was upon them all.
Chapter 5
BUT a certain man named ḤananYah, with Shappirah his wife, sold a possession,
3 But Kepha said, ḤananYah, why has Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Set-Apart Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own authority? why has thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou has not lied to men, but to Yah.
5 And ḤananYah hearing these words fell down, and breathed his last: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
9 Then Kepha said to her, How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.
14 And believers were the more added to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, multitudes both of men and women.)
19 But the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,
29 Then Kepha and the other Emissaries answered and said, We ought to obey Yah rather than men.
30 The Mighty One of our fathers raised up Yahooshua, whom you slew and hanged on a tree.
31 Him has Yah exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Yisra’El, and forgiveness of sins.
32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Set-Apart Spirit, whom Yah has given to them that obey him.
37 After this man rose up Yahoowdah of Galil in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
39 But if it be of Yah, you cannot overthrow it; lest haply you be found even to fight against Yah.
40 And to him they agreed: and when they had called the Emissaries, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Yahooshua, and let them go.
42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
Chapter 6
AND in those days, when the number of the followers was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecian Yahoodi’iy against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the followers to them, and said, It is not pleasing that we should leave the word of Yah, and serve tables.
7 And the word of Yah increased; and the number of the followers multiplied in Yerushalayim greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the Emunah.
11 Then they instigated men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moshe, and against Yah.
14 For we have heard him say, that this Yahooshua of Natsareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moshe delivered us.
Chapter 7
6 And Yah spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.
7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said Yah: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
9 And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Yoseph into Mitsrayim: but Yah was with him,
17 But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which Yah had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Mitsrayim,
25 For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that Yah by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai an messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 When Moshe saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing came to him,
33 Then said Yah the Eternally Self-Existing to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is Set-Apart ground.
35 This Moshe whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did Yah send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the messenger which appeared to him in the bush.
37 This is that Moshe, which said to the children of Yisra’El, A Spokesman of Yah shall Yah the Eternally Self-Existing your Mighty One raise up to you of your brethren, like to me; him shall you hear.
42 Then Yah turned, and gave them up to worship the host of Heaven; as it is written in the book of the Spokesmen of Yah, O you house of Yisra’El, have you offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Yahooshua into the possession of the Ha-goyim, whom Yah drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of Dawid;
46 Who found Chen before Yah, and desired to find a tabernacle for the Mighty One of Ya’aqob.
48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the Spokesman of Yah,
49 Heaven is my throne, and Earth is my footstool: what house will you build me? saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: or what is the place of my rest?
52 Which of the Spokesmen of Yah have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers:
55 But he, being full of the Set-Apart Spirit, looked up steadfastly into Heaven, and saw the Kavod of Yah, and Yahooshua standing on the right hand of Yah,
56 And said, Behold, I see the Heavens opened, and the Son of Adam standing on the right hand of Yah.
59 And they stoned Stephanos, calling upon Yah, and saying, Adonay Yahooshua, receive my spirit.
Chapter 8
AND Sha’ul was consenting to his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the assembly which was at Yerushalayim; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Yahooḏah and Shomeron, except the Emissaries.
5 Then Philip went down to the city of Shomeron, and preached the Anointed One of Yah to them.
10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of Yah.
12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the Kingdom of Yah, and the name of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, they were immersed, both men and women.
14 Now when the Emissaries which were at Yerushalayim heard that Shomeron had received the word of Yah, they sent to them Kepha and Yahoochanan :
16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were immersed in the name of Adonay Yahooshua.)
20 But Kepha said to him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou has thought that the gift of Yah may be purchased with money.
21 Thou has neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of Yah.
22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray Yah, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
24 Then answered Shim‛on, and said, Pray you to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing for me, that none of these things which you have spoken come upon me.
25 And they, when they had testified and preached the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, returned to Yerushalayim, and preached the Good News in many villages of the Samaritans.
26 And the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing spoke to Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south to the way that goes down from Yerushalayim to Azzah, which is desert.
28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah.
30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the Spokesman of Yah YeshaYahoo, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaks the Spokesman of Yah this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same writing, and preached to him Yahooshua.
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah is the Son of Yah.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
Chapter 9
5 And he said, Who art thou, Adonay? And Adonay said, I am Yahooshua whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the prods.
10 And there was a certain follower at Dammeseq, named ḤananYah; and to him said Adonay in a vision, ḤananYah. And he said, Behold, I am here, Adonay.
11 And Adonay said to him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Yahoowdah for one called Sha’ul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prays,
12 And has seen in a vision a man named ḤananYah coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.
13 Then ḤananYah answered, Adonay, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he has done to thy saints at Yerushalayim:
17 And ḤananYah went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Sha’ul, Adonay, even Yahooshua, that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest, has sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Set-Apart Spirit.
20 And straightway he preached the Anointed One of Yah in the Synagogues (congregations), that he is the Son of Yah.
22 But Sha’ul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Yahoodi’iy which dwelt at Dammeseq, proving that this is the Anointed One of Yah.
23 And after that many days were fulfilled, the Yahoodi’iy took counsel to kill him:
27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the Emissaries, and declared to them how he had seen Adonay in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Dammeseq in the name of Yahooshua.
29 And he spake boldly in the name of Adonay Yahooshua, and disputed against the Hellenists: but they went about to slay him.
31 Then had the assemblys rest throughout all Yahooḏah and Galil and Shomeron, and were edified; and walking in the fear of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and in the encouragement of the Set-Apart Spirit, were multiplied.
34 And Kepha said to him, Æneas, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.
35 And all that dwelt at Lod and Sharon saw him, and turned to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
42 And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 10
2 A devout man, and one that feared Yah with all his house, which gave much kind deeds to the people, and prayed to Yah always.
3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day a messenger of Yah coming in to him, and saying to him, Cornelius.
4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Adonay? And he said to him, Thy prayers and thine kind deeds are come up for a memorial before Yah.
15 And the voice spake to him again the second time, What Yah has cleansed, that call not thou common.
22 And they said, Cornelius the Captain, a just man, and one that feareth Yah, and of good report among all the nation of the Yahoodi’iy, was instructed from Yah by a Set-Apart messenger to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
28 And he said to them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Yahoodi’iy to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but Yah has shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine kind deeds are had in remembrance in the sight of Yah.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou has well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before Yah, to hear all things that are commanded thee of Yah.
34 Then Kepha opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that Yah is no respecter of persons:
36 The word which Yah sent to the children of Yisra’El, preaching peace by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah: (he is Adonay of all:)
37 That word, I say, you know, which was published throughout all Yahooḏah, and began from Galil, after the immersion which Yahoochanan preached;
38 How Yah anointed Yahooshua of Natsareth with the Set-Apart Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for Yah was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Yahoodi’iy, and in Yerushalayim; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
40 Him Yah raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;
41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before of Yah, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of Yah to be the Judge of quick and dead.
43 To him give all the Spokesmen of Yah witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify Yah. Then answered Kepha,
48 And he commanded them to be immersed in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
Chapter 11
AND the Emissaries and brethren that were in Yahooḏah heard that the Ha-goyim had also received the word of Yah.
9 But the voice answered me again from Heaven, What Yah has cleansed, that call not thou common.
16 Then remembered I the word of Adonay, how that he said, Yahoochanan indeed immersed with water; but you shall be immersed with the Set-Apart Spirit.
17 Forasmuch then as Yah gave them the like gift as he did to us, who believed on Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah; what was I, that I could withstand Yah?
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and Kavod Yah, saying, Then has Yah also to the Ha-goyim granted repentance to life.
19 Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephanos travelled as far as Phoenicia, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but to the Yahoodi’iy only.
20 And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake to the Hellenists, preaching Adonay Yahooshua.
21 And the hand of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing was with them: and a great number believed, and turned to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
23 Who, when he came, and had seen the Chen of Yah, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleave to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the Set-Apart Spirit and of Emunah: and much people was added to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
27 And in these days came Spokesmen of Yah from Yerushalayim to Antioch.
29 Then the followers, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren which dwelt in Yahooḏah:
Chapter 12
2 And he killed Ya‛aqoḇ the brother of Yahoochanan with the sword.
3 And because he saw it pleased the Yahoodi’iy, he proceeded further to take Kepha also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
5 Kepha therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the assembly to Yah for him.
7 And, behold, the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Kepha on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
11 And when Kepha was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has sent his messenger, and has delivered me out of the hand of Herodes, and from all the expectation of the people of the Yahoodi’iy.
12 And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Miryam the mother of Yahoochanan, whose surname was Marqos; where many were gathered together praying.
17 But he, beckoning to them with the hand to hold their peace, declared to them how Yah the Eternally Self-Existing had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go report these things to Ya‛aqoḇ, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
19 And when Herodes had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Yahooḏah to Cæsarea, and there abode.
23 And immediately the messenger of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing smote him, because he gave not Yah the Kavod: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
24 But the word of Yah grew and multiplied.
25 And Barnabas and Sha’ul returned from Yerushalayim, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them Yahoochanan, whose surname was Marqos.
Chapter 13
NOW there were in the assembly that was at Antioch certain Spokesmen of Yah and teachers; as Barnabas, and Shim‛on that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herodes the district ruler, and Sha’ul.
2 As they ministered to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and fasted, the Set-Apart Spirit said, Separate me Barnabas and Sha’ul for the work whereunto I have called them.
5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of Yah in the Synagogues (congregations) of the Yahoodi’iy: and they had also Yahoochanan as their attendant.
6 And when they had gone through the isle to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false Spokesman of Yah, a Yahoodi’iy, whose name was Bar-Yahooshua:
7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Sha’ul, and desired to hear the word of Yah.
10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the straight ways of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing?
11 And now, behold, the hand of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
13 Now when Sha’ul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphulia: and Yahoochanan departing from them returned to Yerushalayim.
15 And after the reading of the law and the Spokesmen of Yah the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
16 Then Sha’ul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Yisra’El, and you that fear Yah, give audience.
20 And after that he gave to them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the Spokesman of Yah.
21 And afterward they desired a king: and Yah gave to them Sha’ul the son of Qish, a man of the tribe of Binyamin, by the space of forty years.
23 Of this man’s seed has Yah according to his promise raised to Yisra’El a Saviour, Yahooshua:
24 When Yahoochanan had first preached before his coming the immersion of repentance to all the people of Yisra’El.
25 And as Yahoochanan fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think you that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth Yah, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
27 For they that dwell at Yerushalayim, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the Spokesmen of Yah which are read every Sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
30 But Yah raised him from the dead:
33 Yah has fulfilled the same to us their children, in that he has raised up Yahooshua again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I brought you forth.
36 For Dawid, after he had served his own generation by the will of Yah, fell on sleep, and was laid to his fathers, and saw corruption:
37 But he, whom Yah raised again, saw no corruption.
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the Spokesmen of Yah;
42 And when the Yahoodi’iy were gone out of the synagogue, the Ha-goyim besought that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Yahoodi’iy and religious converts followed Sha’ul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the Chen of Yah.
44 And the next Sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of Yah.
45 But when the Yahoodi’iy saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and spoke against those things which were spoken by Sha’ul, contradicting and blaspheming.
46 Then Sha’ul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of Yah should first have been spoken to you: but seeing you put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Ha-goyim.
47 For so has Yah the Eternally Self-Existing commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Ha-goyim, that thou shouldest be for salvation to the ends of the Earth.
48 And when the Ha-goyim heard this, they were glad, and Kavod the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.
49 And the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing was published throughout all the region.
50 But the Yahoodi’iy stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Sha’ul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.
Chapter 14
AND it came to pass in Ikonion, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Yahoodi’iy, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Yahoodi’iy and also of the Greeks believed.
2 But the unbelieving Yahoodi’iy stirred up the Ha-goyim, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
3 Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, which gave testimony to the word of his Chen, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Yahoodi’iy, and part with the Emissaries.
5 And when there was a move took place of both the Ha-goyim, and also of the Yahoodi’iy with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,
19 And there came thither certain Yahoodi’iy from Antioch and Ikonion, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Sha’ul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.
22 Confirming the souls of the followers, and exhorting them to continue in the Emunah, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the Kingdom of Yah.
23 And when they had ordained them elders in every assembly, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, on whom they believed.
26 And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the Chen of Yah for the work which they fulfilled.
27 And when they were come, and had gathered the assembly together, they rehearsed all that Yah had done with them, and how he had opened the door of Emunah to the Ha-goyim.
Chapter 15
AND certain men which came down from Yahooḏah taught the brethren, and said, Except you be circumcised after the manner of Moshe, you cannot be saved.
4 And when they were come to Yerushalayim, they were received of the assembly, and of the Emissaries and elders, and they declared all things that Yah had done with them.
7 And when there had been much disputing, Kepha rose up, and said to them, Men and brethren, you know how that a good while ago Yah made choice among us, that the Ha-goyim by my mouth should hear the word of the Good News, and believe.
8 And Yah, which knows the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Set-Apart Spirit, even as he did to us;
10 Now therefore why tempt you Yah, to put a yoke upon the neck of the followers, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
11 But we believe that through the Chen of Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah we shall be saved, even as they.
12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Sha’ul, declaring what miracles and wonders Yah had wrought among the Ha-goyim by them.
14 Shim‛on has declared how Yah at the first did visit the Ha-goyim, to take out of them a people for his name.
15 And to this agree the words of the Spokesmen of Yah; as it is written,
17 That the residue of men might seek after Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and all the Ha-goyim, upon whom my name is called, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, who doeth all these things.
18 Known to Yah are all his works from the beginning of the world.
19 Wherefore I judge that we trouble not them, which from among the Ha-goyim are turned to Yah:
22 Then pleased it the Emissaries and elders, with the whole assembly, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Sha’ul and Barnabas; namely, Yahoowdah surnamed Barsabba, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
26 Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
27 We have sent therefore Yahoowdah and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
32 And Yahoowdah and Silas, being Spokesmen of Yah also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
35 Sha’ul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, with many others also.
36 And some days after Sha’ul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and see how they do.
37 And Barnabas determined to take with them Yahoochanan, whose surname was Marqos.
40 And Sha’ul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren to the Chen of Yah.
Chapter 16
THEN came he to Derbe and Lustra: and, behold, a certain follower was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Yahoodi’iyess, and believed; but his father was a Greek:
3 Him would Sha’ul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Yahoodi’iy which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.
10 And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Makedonia, assuredly concluding that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing had called us for to preach the Good News to them.
14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped Yah, heard us: whose heart Yah the Eternally Self-Existing opened, that she attended to the things which were spoken of Sha’ul.
15 And when she was immersed, and her household, she besought us, saying, If you have judged me to be emunahful to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.
18 And this did she many days. But Sha’ul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.
20 And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Yahoodi’iy, do exceedingly trouble our city,
25 And at midnight Sha’ul and Silas prayed, and sang praises to Yah: and the prisoners heard them.
31 And they said, Believe on Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32 And they spake to him the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and to all that were in his house.
34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in Yah with all his house.
Chapter 17
NOW when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonike, where was a synagogue of the Yahoodi’iy:
3 Opening and alleging, that the Anointed One of Yah must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Yahooshua, whom I preach to you, is the Anointed One of Yah.
5 But the Yahoodi’iy which believed not, moved with envy, took some of the wicked men from the market-place, and gathered a mob, and set all the city on an uproar, and came upon the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.
7 Whom Jason has received: and these all do contrary to the dogmas of Cæsar, saying that there is another king, one Yahooshua.
10 And the brethren immediately sent away Sha’ul and Silas by night to Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Yahoodi’iy.
13 But when the Yahoodi’iy of Thessalonike had knowledge that the teaching of Yah was preached of Sha’ul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the people.
17 Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Yahoodi’iy, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.
18 Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange mighty ones: because he preached to them Yahooshua, and the resurrection.
24 Yah that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Adonay of Heaven and Earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
27 That they should seek Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, if haply they might reach out for Him, and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us:
29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of Yah, we ought not to think that the Mighty One is like to gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device.
30 And the times of this ignorance Yah overlooked; but now He commands all men everywhere to repent:
Chapter 18
2 And found a certain Yahoodi’iy named Aqulas, born in Pontos, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Yahoodi’iy to depart from Rome:) and came to them.
4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded the Yahoodi’iy and the Greeks.
5 And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Makedonia, Sha’ul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Yahoodi’iy that Yahooshua was the Anointed One of Yah.
7 And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man’s house, named Justus, one that worshipped Yah, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.
8 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on Yah the Eternally Self-Existing with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were immersed.
9 Then spake Yah the Eternally Self-Existing to Sha’ul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
11 And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of Yah among them.
12 And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Yahoodi’iy rose up with one accord against Sha’ul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
13 Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship Yah contrary to the law.
14 And when Sha’ul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Yahoodi’iy, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O you Yahoodi’iy, reason would that I should bear with you:
19 And he came to Ephesos, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Yahoodi’iy.
21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Yerushalayim: but I will return again to you, if Yah will. And he sailed from Ephesos.
24 And a certain Yahoodi’iy named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the writings, came to Ephesos.
25 This man was instructed in the way of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, knowing only the immersion of Yahoochanan .
26 And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him to them, and explained to him the way of Yah more perfectly.
28 For he mightily convinced the Yahoodi’iy, and that publicly, showing by the writings that Yahooshua was the Anointed One of Yah.
Chapter 19
3 And he said to them, Unto what then were you immersed? And they said, Unto Yahoochanan ’s immersion.
4 Then said Sha’ul, Yahoochanan verily immersed with the immersion of repentance, saying to the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
5 When they heard this, they were immersed in the name of Adonay Yahooshua.
8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the Kingdom of Yah.
10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of Adonay Yahooshua, both Yahoodi’iy and Greeks.
11 And Yah wrought special miracles by the hands of Sha’ul:
13 Then certain of the roving Yahoodi’iy, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of Adonay Yahooshua, saying, We adjure you by Yahooshua whom Sha’ul preacheth.
14 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Yahoodi’iy, and chief of the priests, which did so.
15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Yahooshua I know, and Sha’ul I know; but who are you?
17 And this was known to all the Yahoodi’iy and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesos; and fear fell on them all, and the name of Adonay Yahooshua was magnified.
20 So mightily grew the word of Yah and prevailed.
33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Yahoodi’iy putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence to the people.
34 But when they knew that he was a Yahoodi’iy, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Artemis of the Ephesians.
Chapter 20
3 And there abode three months. And when the Yahoodi’iy laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Suria, he purposed to return through Makedonia.
19 Serving Yah the Eternally Self-Existing with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Yahoodi’iy:
21 Testifying both to the Yahoodi’iy, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward Yah, and Emunah toward our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear to myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of Adonay Yahooshua, to testify the Good News of the Chen of Yah.
25 And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the Kingdom of Yah, shall see my face no more.
27 For I have not shunned to declare to you all the counsel of Yah.
28 Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Set-Apart Spirit has made you Overseers, to shepherd the assembly of Yahooshua, which he has purchased with his own blood.
32 And now, brethren, I commend you to Yah, and to the word of his Chen, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of Adonay Yahooshua, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Chapter 21
10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Yahooḏah a certain Spokesman of Yah, named Ḥaḡaḇ.
11 And when he was come to us, he took Sha’ul’s girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Set-Apart Spirit, So shall the Yahoodi’iy at Yerushalayim bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Ha-goyim.
13 Then Sha’ul answered, What mean you to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Yerushalayim for the name of Adonay Yahooshua.
14 And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing be done.
19 And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things Yah had wrought among the Ha-goyim by his ministry.
20 And when they heard it, they Kavod Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Yahoodi’iy there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the Torah:
21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Yahoodi’iy which are among the Ha-goyim to forsake Moshe, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.
27 And when the seven days were almost ended, the Yahoodi’iy which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him,
39 But Sha’ul said, I am a man which am a Yahoodi’iy of Tarsos, a city in Kilikia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak to the people.
Chapter 22
3 I am verily a man which am a Yahoodi’iy, born in Tarsos, a city in Kilikia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the Torah of the fathers, and was zealous toward Yah, as you all are this day.
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Adonay? And he said to me, I am Yahooshua of Natsareth, whom thou persecutest.
12 And one ḤananYah, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Yahoodi’iy which dwelt there,
16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be immersed, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
30 On the morrow, because he would have known the certainty wherefore he was accused of the Yahoodi’iy, he loosed him from his bands, and commanded the Chief Priests and all their Sanhedrin to appear, and brought Sha’ul down, and set him before them.
Chapter 23
AND Sha’ul, earnestly beholding the Sanhedrin, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before Yah until this day.
2 And the High Priest ḤananYah commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth.
3 Then said Sha’ul to him, Yah shall smite thee, thou whitewashed wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the Torah, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the Torah?
4 And they that stood by said, Revilest thou Yah’s High Priest?
9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees’ part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an messenger has spoken to him, let us not fight against Yah.
12 And when it was day, certain of the Yahoodi’iy banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Sha’ul.
20 And he said, The Yahoodi’iy have agreed to desire thee that thou wouldest bring down Sha’ul tomorrow into the Sanhedrin, as though they would inquire somewhat of him more perfectly.
27 This man was taken of the Yahoodi’iy, and should have been killed of them: then came I with the body of soliders, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.
30 And when it was told me how that the Yahoodi’iy laid in wait for the man, I sent straightway to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before thee what they had against him. Farewell.
Chapter 24
AND after five days ḤananYah the High Priest descended with the elders, and with a certain orator named Tertullus, who brought charges to the governor against Sha’ul.
5 For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Yahoodi’iy throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Natsarenes:
9 And the Yahoodi’iy also assented, saying that these things were so.
14 But this I confess to thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the Mighty One of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the Torah and in the Spokesmen of Yah:
15 And have hope toward Yah, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward Yah, and toward men.
18 Whereupon certain Yahoodi’iy from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
24 And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Yahoodi’iyess, he sent for Sha’ul, and heard him concerning the Emunah in the Anointed One of Yah.
27 But after two years Porcius Festus succeeded Felix’: and Felix, willing to shew the Yahoodi’iy a pleasure, left Sha’ul bound.
Chapter 25
2 Then the High Priest and the chief of the Yahoodi’iy informed him against Sha’ul, and besought him,
7 And when he was come, the Yahoodi’iy which came down from Yerushalayim stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Sha’ul, which they could not prove.
8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Yahoodi’iy, neither against the temple, nor yet against Cæsar, have I offended anything at all.
9 But Festus, willing to do the Yahoodi’iy a pleasure, answered Sha’ul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Yerushalayim, and there be judged of these things before me?
10 Then said Sha’ul, I stand at Cæsar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Yahoodi’iy have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.
15 About whom, when I was at Yerushalayim, the Chief Priests and the elders of the Yahoodi’iy informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.
19 But had certain questions against him of their own worship, and of one Yahooshua, which was dead, whom Sha’ul affirmed to be alive.
24 And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present with us, you see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Yahoodi’iy have dealt with me, both at Yerushalayim, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.
Chapter 26
2 I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Yahoodi’iy:
3 Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Yahoodi’iy: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.
4 My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Yerushalayim, know all the Yahoodi’iy;
6 And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of Yah to our fathers:
7 Unto which promise our twelve tribes, earnestly serving Yah day and night, hope to come. For which hope’s sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the Yahoodi’iy.
8 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that Yah should raise the dead?
9 I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Yahooshua of Natsareth.
15 And I said, Who art thou, Adonay? And he said, I am Yahooshua whom thou persecutest.
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to Yah, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are Set Apart by Emunah in me.
20 But shewed first to them of Dammeseq, and at Yerushalayim, and throughout all the coasts of Yahooḏah, and then to the Ha-goyim, that they should repent and turn to Yah, and do works meet for repentance.
21 For these causes the Yahoodi’iy caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me.
22 Having therefore obtained help of Yah, I continue to this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the Spokesmen of Yah and Moshe did say should come:
23 That the Anointed One of Yah should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light to the people, and to the Ha-goyim.
27 King Agrippa, believest thou the Spokesmen of Yah? I know that thou believest.
29 And Sha’ul said, I would to Yah, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.
Chapter 27
23 For there stood by me this night the messenger of Yah, whose I am, and whom I serve,
24 Saying, Fear not, Sha’ul; thou must be brought before Cæsar: and, lo, Yah has given thee all them that sail with thee.
25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe Yah, that it shall be even as it was told me.
35 And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to Yah in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.
Chapter 28
15 And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us at Forum of Appius and Three Taverns: whom when Sha’ul saw, he thanked Yah, and took courage.
17 And it came to pass, that after three days Sha’ul called the chief of the Yahoodi’iy together: and when they were come together, he said to them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Yerushalayim into the hands of the Romans.
19 But when the Yahoodi’iy spake against it, I was constrained to appeal to Cæsar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.
21 And they said to him, We neither received letters out of Yahooḏah concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he was explaining, earnestly witnessing about the Kingdom of Yah, persuading them concerning Yahooshua, both out of the Torah of Moshe, and out of the Spokesmen of Yah, from morning till evening.
25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Sha’ul had spoken one word, Well spake the Set-Apart Spirit by YeshaYahoo the Spokesman of Yah to our fathers,
28 Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of Yah is sent to the Ha-goyim, and that they will hear it.
29 And when he had said these words, the Yahoodi’iy departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
31 Preaching the Kingdom of Yah, and teaching those things which concern Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
- 4: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Romans
Commentary:
This book provides teachings to the Roman Believers from Shaul {commonly but incorrectly Paul}.
Note that the letters {epistles} give more teaching about the ways of Yah and the Anointed life than the previous five books from MattihYahoo to Revelation {the “New Testament”} which give more in the way of examples of highly Anointed Believers, particularly Yahooshua as an example of how we should seek to live our lives.
Emissaries exist today just the same as at the time this was written but many are not recognized as such.
Please read the Introduction and the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to Romans as well.

Chapter 1
SHA’UL, a servant of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, called to be an emissary, separated to the Good News of Yah,
2 (Which he had promised afore by his Spokesmen of Yah in the Set-Apart writings,)
3 Concerning his Son Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay, which was made of the seed of Dawid according to the flesh;
4 And declared to be the Son of Yah with power, according to the spirit of Set-Apartness, by the resurrection from the dead:
6 Among whom are you also the called of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of Yah, called to be Set-Apart Ones: Chen to you and peace from Yah our Father, and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
8 First, I thank Yah through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah for you all, that your Emunah is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9 For Yah is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the Good News of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;
10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of Yah to come to you.
16 For I am not ashamed of the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah: for it is the power of Yah to salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Yahoodi’iy first, and also to the Greek.
17 For therein is the righteousness of Yah revealed from Emunah to Emunah: as it is written, The just shall live by Emunah.
18 For the wrath of Yah is revealed from Heaven against all wickedness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of Yah is manifest in them; for Yah has shewed it to them.
21 Because that, when they knew Yah, they Kavod him not as Yah, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
24 Wherefore Yah also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of Yah into a lie, and bowed down and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Aměn.
26 For this cause Yah gave them up to vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
28 And even as they did not like to retain Yah in their knowledge, Yah gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
30 Slanderers, haters of Yah, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
32 Who knowing the judgment of Yah, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Chapter 2
2 But we are sure that the judgment of Yah is according to truth against them which commit such things.
3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of Yah?
4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and patience; not knowing that the goodness of Yah leadeth thee to repentance?
5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of Yah;
9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Yahoodi’iy first, and also of the Gentile;
10 But Kavod, honour, and peace, to every man that works good, to the Yahoodi’iy first, and also to the Gentile:
11 For there is no respect of persons with Yah.
13 (For not the hearers of the Commandments are just before Yah, but the doers of the Commandments shall be justified.
16 In the day when Yah shall judge the secrets of men by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah according to my Good News.
17 Behold, thou art called a Yahoodi’iy, and restest in the Commandments, and makest thy boast of Yah,
23 Thou that makest thy boast of the Commandments, through breaking the Commandments dishonourest thou Yah?
24 For the name of Yah is blasphemed among the Ha-goyim through you, as it is written.
28 For he is not a Yahoodi’iy, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Yahoodi’iy, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of Yah.
Chapter 3
WHAT advantage then has the Yahoodi’iy? or what profit is there of circumcision?
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that to them were committed the Words of Yah.
3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the Emunah of Yah without effect?
4 Yah forbid: yea, let Yah be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of Yah, what shall we say? Is Yah unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
6 Yah forbid: for then how shall Yah judge the world?
7 For if the truth of Yah has more abounded through my lie to his Kavod; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Yahoodi’iy and Ha-goyim, that they are all under sin;
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after Yah.
18 There is no fear of Yah before their eyes.
19 Now we know that what things soever the Commandments saith, it saith to them who are under the Commandments: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before Yah.
21 But now the righteousness of Yah without the Commandments is manifested, being witnessed by the Commandments and the Spokesmen of Yah;
22 Even the righteousness of Yah which is by Emunah in Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah to all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the Kavod of Yah;
24 Being justified freely by his Chen through the redemption that is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
25 Whom Yah has set forth to be a propitiation through Emunah in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of Yah;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Yahooshua.
29 Is he the Mighty One of the Yahoodi’iy only? is he not also of the Ha-goyim? Yes, of the Ha-goyim also:
30 Seeing it is one Yah, which shall justify the circumcision by Emunah, and uncircumcision through Emunah.
31 Do we then make void the Commandments through Emunah? Yah forbid: yea, we establish the Commandments.
Chapter 4
2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he has whereof to Kavod; but not before Yah.
3 For what saith the writings? Abraham believed Yah, and it was counted to him for righteousness.
6 Even as Dawid also describeth the blessedness of the man, to whom Yah imputeth righteousness without works,
8 Blessed is the man to whom Yah the Eternally Self-Existing will not impute sin.
17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even Yah, who quickeneth the dead, and calls those things which be not as though they were.
20 He staggered not at the promise of Yah through unbelief; but was strong in Emunah, giving Kavod to Yah;
24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Yahooshua our Adonay from the dead;
Chapter 5
THEREFORE being justified by Emunah, we have peace with Yah through our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
2 By whom also we have access by Emunah into this Chen wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the Kavod of Yah.
5 And expectation maketh not ashamed; because the Chesed of Yah is shed abroad in our hearts by the Set-Apart Spirit which is given to us.
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time the Anointed One of Yah died for the wicked.
8 But Yah commendeth his Chesed toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, the Anointed One of Yah died for us.
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to Yah by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
11 And not only so, but we also joy in Yah through our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, by whom we have now received the atonement.
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the Chen of Yah, and the gift by Chen, which is by one man, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, has abounded to many.
17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of Chen and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.)
21 That as sin has reigned to death, even so might Chen reign through righteousness to eternal life by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay.
Chapter 6
2 Yah forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Know you not, that so many of us as were immersed into Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah were immersed into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by immersion into death: that like as the Anointed One of Yah was raised up from the dead by the Kavod of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
8 Now if we be dead with the Anointed One of Yah, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that the Anointed One of Yah being raised from the dead dieth no more; death has no more dominion over him.
10 For in that he died, he died to sin once: but in that he lives, he lives to Yah.
11 Likewise reckon you also yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to Yah through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay.
13 Neither yield you your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin: but yield yourselves to Yah, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to Yah.
15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the Torah, but under Chen? Yah forbid.
17 But Yah be thanked, that you were the servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart that form of teaching which was delivered you.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to Yah, you have your fruit to Set-Apartness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of Yah is eternal life through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay.
Chapter 7
4 Wherefore, my brethren, you also are become dead to the law by the body of the Anointed One of Yah; that you should be joined to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit to Yah.
7 What shall we say then? are the Commandments sin? Yah forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the Commandments: for I had not known lust, except the Commandments had said, Thou shalt not covet.
13 Was then that which is good made death to me? Yah forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
22 For I delight in the Commandments of Yah after the inward man:
25 I thank Yah through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay. So then with the mind I myself serve the Commandments of Yah; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Chapter 8
THERE is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua has made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, Yah sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against Yah: for it is not subject to the Commandments of Yah, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please Yah.
9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of Yah dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of the Anointed One of Yah, he is none of his.
10 And if the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Yahooshua from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up the Anointed One of Yah from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of Yah, they are the sons of Yah.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of Yah:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of Yah, and joint-heirs with the Anointed One of Yah; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also Kavod together.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of Yah.
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of Yah.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the Set-Apart Ones according to the will of Yah.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that Chesed Yah, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
31 What shall we then say to these things? If Yah be for us, who can be against us?
33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of Yah’s elect? It is Yah that justifieth.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is the Anointed One of Yah that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of Yah, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the Chesed of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the Chesed of Yah, which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua our Adonay.
Chapter 9
I SAY the truth in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Set-Apart Spirit,
3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4 Who are Yisra’Elites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the Kavod, and the covenants, and the giving of the Commandments, and the service of Yah, and the promises;
5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh the Anointed One of Yah came, who is over all, Yah blessed for ever. Aměn.
6 Not as though the word of Yah has taken none effect. For they are not all Yisra’El, which are of Yisra’El:
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of Yah: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of Yah according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calls;)
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with Yah? Yah forbid.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of Yah that sheweth mercy.
20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against Yah? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why has thou made me thus?
22 What if Yah, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
24 Even us, whom he has called, not of the Yahoodi’iy only, but also of the Ha-goyim?
27 YeshaYahoo also crieth concerning Yisra’El, Though the number of the children of Yisra’El be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will Yah the Eternally Self-Existing make upon the Earth.
29 And as YeshaYahoo said before, Except Yah the Eternally Self-Existing of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Seḏoma, and been made like to Amorah.
Chapter 10
BRETHREN, my heart’s desire and prayer to Yah for Yisra’El is, that they might be saved.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of Yah, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they being ignorant of Yah’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of Yah.
4 For the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is the end of the Torah for righteousness to everyone that believes.
6 But the righteousness which is of Emunah speaks on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into Heaven? (that is, to bring the Anointed One of Yah down from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up the Anointed One of Yah again from the dead.)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Adonay Yahooshua, and shalt believe in thine heart that Yah has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
12 For there is no difference between the Yahoodi’iy and the Greek: for the same Adonay over all is rich to all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing shall be saved.
16 But they have not all obeyed the Good News. For YeshaYahoo saith, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, who has believed our report?
17 So then Emunah cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of Yah.
20 But YeshaYahoo is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not after me.
Chapter 11
I SAY then, Hath Yah cast away his people? Yah forbid. For I also am an Yisra’Elite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 Yah has not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot you not what the writings saith of EliYahoo? how he maketh intercession to Yah against Yisra’El, saying,
3 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, they have killed thy Spokesmen, and overthrown down thine slaughter places {altars}; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4 But what saith the answer of Yah to him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
8 (According as it is written, Yah has given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) to this day.
11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? Yah forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come to the Ha-goyim, for to provoke them to jealousy.
21 For if Yah spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of Yah: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for Yah is able to graft them in again.
29 For the gifts and calling of Yah are without repentance.
30 For as you in times past have not believed Yah, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
32 For Yah has concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of Yah! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
34 For who has known the mind of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing? or who has been his counsellor?
Chapter 12
I BESEECH you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of Yah, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, Set-Apart, acceptable to Yah, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be you transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of Yah.
3 For I say, through the Chen given to me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as Yah has dealt to every man the measure of Emunah.
5 So we, being many, are one body in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and every one members one of another.
11 Not idle in duty; ardent in spirit; serving Yah the Eternally Self-Existing;
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place to wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 13
LET every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from Yah: the authorities that exist are appointed by Yah.
2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the authorities, resisteth the institution of Yah: and they that resist shall receive to themselves judgment.
4 For he is the minister of Yah to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of Yah, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
6 For for this cause pay you tax also: for they are Yah’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
14 But put you on {Adonay Yahooshua} the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah , and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
Chapter 14
3 Let not him that eats despise him that eats not; and let not him which eats not judge him that eats: for Yah has received him.
4 Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he stands or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for Yah is able to make him stand.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; and he that regardeth not the day, to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing he doth not regard it. He that eats, eats to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, for he gives Yah thanks; and he that eats not, to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing he eats not, and gives Yah thanks.
8 For whether we live, we live to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; and whether we die, we die to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: whether we live therefore, or die, we are Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s.
9 For to this end the Anointed One of Yah both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Adonay both of the dead and living.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to Yah.
12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to Yah.
14 I know, and am persuaded by Adonay Yahooshua, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy food, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy food, for whom the Anointed One of Yah died.
17 For the Kingdom of Yah is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Set-Apart Spirit.
18 For he that in these things serves the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is acceptable to Yah, and approved of men.
20 For food destroy not the work of Yah. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eats with offence.
22 Hast thou Emunah? have it to thyself before Yah. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
Chapter 15
3 For even the Anointed One of Yah pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
5 Now the Mighty One of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
6 That you may with one mind and one mouth Kavod Yah, even the Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
7 Wherefore receive you one another, as the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah also received us to the Kavod of Yah.
8 Now I say that Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of Yah, to confirm the promises made to the fathers:
9 And that the Ha-goyim might Kavod Yah for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Ha-goyim, and sing to thy name.
11 And again, Praise Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, all you Ha-goyim; and laud him, all you people.
12 And again, YeshaYahoo saith, There shall be a root of Yishai, and he that shall rise to reign over the Ha-goyim; in him shall the Ha-goyim trust.
15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly to you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the Chen that is given to me of Yah,
16 That I should be the minister of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah to the Ha-goyim, ministering the Good News of Yah, that the offering up of the Ha-goyim might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Set-Apart Spirit.
17 I have therefore whereof I may Kavod through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah in those things which pertain to Yah.
18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah has not wrought by me, to make the Ha-goyim obedient, by word and deed,
19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of Yah; so that from Yerushalayim, and round about to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the Good News, not where the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation:
29 And I am sure that, when I come to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
30 Now I beseech you, brethren, for Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah’s sake, and for the Chesed of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to Yah for me;
31 That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Yahooḏah; and that my service which I have for Yerushalayim may be accepted of the Set-Apart Ones;
32 That I may come to you with joy by the will of Yah, and may with you be refreshed.
33 Now the Yah of peace be with you all. Aměn.
Chapter 16
2 That you receive her in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, as fitting Set-Apart Ones, and that you assist her in whatsoever business she has need of you: for she has been a succourer of many, and of myself also.
3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
5 Likewise greet the assembly that is in their house. Salute my well beloved Epænetus, who is the first fruits of Achaia to the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
7 Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Emissaries, who also were in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah before me.
8 Greet Amplias my beloved in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
9 Salute Urbane, our helper in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and Stachys my beloved.
10 Salute Apelles approved in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah. Salute them which are of Aristobulus’ household.
11 Salute Herodion my kinsman. Greet them that be of the household of Narcissus, which are in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
13 Salute Rufus chosen in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and his mother and mine.
16 Salute one another with a Set-Apart kiss. The assemblies of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah salute you.
18 For they that are such serve not our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
20 And the Mighty One of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you. Aměn.
22 I Tertius, who wrote this letter, salute you in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
24 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you all. Aměn.
25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my Good News, and the preaching of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,
26 But now is made manifest, and by the writings of the Spokesmen of Yah, according to the commandment of the everlasting Mighty One, made known to all nations for the obedience of Emunah:
27 To Yah only wise, be Kavod through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah for ever. Aměn.
- 5: The First Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Corinthians
Commentary:
This book provides teachings to the Corinthian Believers from Shaul {commonly but incorrectly Paul – he was a Hebrew}.
Note that the letters {epistles} give more teaching about the ways of Yah and the Anointed life than the first five books from MattihYahoo to Revelation which give more in the way of examples of highly Anointed Believers, particularly Yahooshua as an example of how we should seek to live our lives. You will see from my footnotes that there are several statements by Shaul that I believe are NOT from Yah.
Emissaries exist today just the same as at the time this was written but many are not recognized as such.
Please read the Introduction and the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to 1 Corinthians as well.

Chapter 1
SHA’UL, called to be an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah through the will of Yah, and Sosthenes our brother,
2 Unto the assembly of Yah which is at Corinth, to them that are Set-Apart in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, called to be Set-Apart Ones, with all that in every place call upon the name of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay, both theirs and ours:
3 Chen be to you, and peace, from Yah our Father, and from Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
4 I thank my Mighty One always on your behalf, for the Chen of Yah which is given you by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah;
6 Even as the testimony of the Anointed One of Yah was confirmed in you:
7 So that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
8 Who shall also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
9 Yah is emunahful, by whom you were called to the fellowship of his Son Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay.
10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Sha’ul; and I of Apollos; and I of Kěpha; and I of the Anointed One of Yah.
13 Is the Anointed One of Yah divided? was Sha’ul executed for you? or were you immersed in the name of Sha’ul?
14 I thank Yah that I immersed none of you, but Crispus and Gaios;
17 For the Anointed One of Yah sent me not to immerse, but to preach the Good News: not with wisdom of words, lest the Stake of the Anointed One of Yah should be made of none effect.
18 For the preaching of the Stake is to them that perish foolishness; but to us which are saved it is the power of Yah.
20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? has not Yah made foolish the wisdom of this world?
21 For after that in the wisdom of Yah the world by wisdom knew not Yah, it pleased Yah by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22 For the Yahoodi’iy require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
23 But we preach the Anointed One of Yah executed, to the Yahoodi’iy a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness;
24 But to them which are called, both Yahoodi’iy and Greeks, the Anointed One of Yah the power of Yah, and the wisdom of Yah.
25 Because the foolishness of Yah is wiser than men; and the weakness of Yah is stronger than men.
27 But Yah has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and Yah has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has Yah chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
30 But of him are you in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, who of Yah is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
31 That, according as it is written, He that Kavod, let him Kavod in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 2
AND I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of Yah.
2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and him executed.
5 That your Emunah should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of Yah.
7 But we speak the wisdom of Yah in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which Yah ordained before the world to our Kavod:
9 But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which Yah has prepared for them that Chesed him.
10 But Yah has revealed them to us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of Yah.
11 For what man knows the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of Yah knows no man, but the Spirit of Yah.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of Yah; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of Yah.
14 But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of Yah: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
16 For who has known the mind of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
Chapter 3
AND I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to carnal, even as to babes in the Anointed One of Yah.
5 Who then is Sha’ul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom you believed, even as Yah the Eternally Self-Existing gave to every man?
6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but Yah gave the increase.
7 So then neither is he that plants any thing, neither he that waters; but Yah that gives the increase.
9 For we are labourers together with Yah: you are Yah’s husbandry, you are Yah’s building.
10 According to the Chen of Yah which is given to me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds thereon. But let every man take heed how he builds thereupon.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
16 Know you not that you are the temple of Yah, and that the Spirit of Yah dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of Yah, him shall Yah destroy; for the temple of Yah is Set-Apart, which temple you are.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with Yah. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.
20 And again, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
23 And you are the Anointed One of Yah’s; and the Anointed One of Yah is Yah’s.
Chapter 4
LET a man so account of us, as of the ministers of the Anointed One of Yah, and stewards of the mysteries of Yah.
4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judges me is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until Adonay come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of Yah.
8 Now you are full, now you are rich, you have reigned as kings without us: and I would to Yah you did reign, that we also might reign with you.
9 For I think that Yah has set forth us the Emissaries last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle to the world, and to Messengers, and to men.
10 We are fools for the Anointed One of Yah’s sake, but you are wise in the Anointed One of Yah; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honourable, but we are despised.
15 For though you have ten thousand instructors in the Anointed One of Yah, yet have you not many fathers: for in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua I have begotten you through the Good News.
17 For this cause have I sent to you Timotiyos, who is my beloved son, and emunahful in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, as I teach everywhere in every assembly.
19 But I will come to you shortly, if Yah the Eternally Self-Existing will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
20 For the Kingdom of Yah is not in word, but in power.
Chapter 5
4 In the name of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, when you are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah,
5 To deliver such an one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of Adonay Yahooshua.
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, as you are unleavened. For even the Anointed One of Yah our Passover is sacrificed for us:
13 But them that are without Yah judges. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
Chapter 6
9 Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of Yah? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the Kingdom of Yah.
11 And such were some of you: but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of Adonay Yahooshua, and by the Spirit of our Mighty One.
13 Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods: but Yah shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; and Yah the Eternally Self-Existing for the body.
14 And Yah has both raised up Adonay, and will also raise up us by his own power.
15 Know you not that your bodies are the members of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah? shall I then take the members of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and make them the members of an harlot? Yah forbid.
17 But he that is joined to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is one spirit.
19 What? know you not that your body is the temple of the Set-Apart Spirit which is in you, which you have of Yah, and you are not your own?
20 For you are bought with a price: therefore Kavod Yah in your body, and in your spirit, which are Yah’s.
Chapter 7
7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man has his proper gift of Yah, one after this manner, and another after that.
10 And to the married I command, yet not I, but Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, Let not the wife depart from her husband:
12 But to the rest speak I, not Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: If any brother has a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but Yah has called us to peace.
17 But as Yah has distributed to every man, as Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all assemblies.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the Commandments of Yah.
22 For he that is called in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, being a servant, is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is the Anointed One of Yah’s servant.
24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with Yah.
25 Now concerning bethulahs I have no commandment of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: yet I give my judgment, as one that has obtained mercy of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing to be emunahful.
32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried cares for the things that belong to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, how he may please Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
34 There is difference also between a wife and a bethulah. The unmarried woman cares for the things of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that she may be Set-Apart both in body and in spirit: but she that is married cares for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that you may attend upon Yah the Eternally Self-Existing without distraction.
39 The wife is bound by the Commandment as long as her husband lives; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
40 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of Yah.
Chapter 8
3 But if any man Chesed Yah, the same is known of him.
6 But to us there is but one Mighty One, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Adonay, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, by whom are all things, and we by him.
8 But food commends us not to Yah: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom the Anointed One of Yah died?
12 But when you sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against the Anointed One of Yah.
Chapter 9
AM I not an emissary? am I not free? have I not seen Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay? are not you my work in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing?
2 If I be not an emissary to others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine Emissarieship are you in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
9 For it is written in the Torah of Moshe, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treads out the corn. Does Yah take care for oxen?
12 If others be partakers of this authority over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this authority; but put up with all things, lest we should hinder the Good News of the Anointed One of Yah.
14 Even so has Yah the Eternally Self-Existing ordained that they which preach the Good News should live off the Good News.
18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the Good News, I may make the Good News of the Anointed One of Yah without charge, that I abuse not my authority in the Good News.
20 And to the Yahoodi’iy I became as a Yahoodi’iy, that I might gain the Yahoodi’iy; to them that are under the Torah, as under the Torah, that I might gain them that are under the Torah;
21 To them that are without the Torah, as without the Torah, (being not without Torah to Yah, but under the Torah to the Anointed One of Yah,) that I might gain them that are without Torah.
Chapter 10
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was the Anointing of Yah.
5 But with many of them Yah was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
9 Neither let us tempt the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents.
13 There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but Yah is emunahful, who will not allow you to be tested above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.
16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the sharing of the blood of the Anointed One of Yah? The bread which we break, is it not the sharing of the body of the Anointed One of Yah?
20 But I say, that the things which the Ha-goyim sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to Yah: and I would not that you should have fellowship with devils.
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and the cup of devils: you cannot be partakers of Yah’s table, and of the table of devils.
22 Do we provoke Yah the Eternally Self-Existing to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
26 For the Earth is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s, and the fulness thereof.
28 But if any man say to you, This is offered in sacrifice to idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the Earth is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s, and the fulness thereof:
31 Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatsoever you do, do all to the Kavod of Yah.
32 Give none offence, neither to the Yahoodi’iy, nor to the Ha-goyim, nor to the assembly of Yah:
Chapter 11
BE you followers of me, even as I also am of the Anointed One of Yah.
3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is the Anointed One of Yah; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of the Anointed One of Yah is Yah.
7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and Kavod of Yah: but the woman is the Kavod of the man.
11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
12 For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of Yah.
13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray to Yah uncovered?
16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the assemblies of Yah.
22 What? have you not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise you the assembly of Yah, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.
23 For I have received of Adonay that which also I delivered to you, That Adonay Yahooshua the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that we should not be condemned with the world.
Chapter 12
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of Yah calls Yahooshua accursed: and that no man can say that Yahooshua is Adonay, but by the Set-Apart Spirit.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same Yah which works all in all.
12 For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is the Anointed One of Yah.
13 For by one Spirit are we all immersed into one body, whether we be Yahoodi’iy or Ha-goyim, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
18 But now has Yah set the members every one of them in the body, as it has pleased him.
24 For our comely parts have no need: but Yah has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:
27 Now you are the body of the Anointed One of Yah, and members in particular.
28 And Yah has set some in the assembly, first Emissaries, secondarily Spokesmen of Yah, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
29 Are all Emissaries? are all Spokesmen of Yah? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
Chapter 14
2 For he that speaks in an unknown tongue speaks not to men, but to Yah: for no man understands him; however in the spirit he speaks mysteries.
21 In the Torah it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak to this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship Yah, and report that Yah is in you of a truth.
28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the assembly; and let him speak to himself, and to Yah.
29 Let the Spokesmen of Yah speak two or three, and let the other judge.
32 And the spirits of the Spokesmen of Yah are subject to the Spokesmen of Yah.
33 For Yah is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all assemblies of the Set-Apart Ones.
36 What? came the word of Yah out from you? or came it to you only?
37 If any man think himself to be a Spokesman of Yah, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write to you are the commandments of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 15
3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received, how that the Anointed One of Yah died for our sins according to the writings;
9 For I am the least of the Emissaries, that am not meet to be called an emissary, because I persecuted the assembly of Yah.
10 But by the Chen of Yah I am what I am: and his Chen which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the Chen of Yah which was with me.
12 Now if the Anointed One of Yah be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is the Anointed One of Yah not risen:
14 And if the Anointed One of Yah be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your Emunah is also vain.
15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of Yah; because we have testified of Yah that he raised up the Anointed One of Yah: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
16 For if the dead do not rise, then the Anointed One of Yah is not raised:
17 And if the Anointed One of Yah is not raised, your Emunah is vain; you are yet in your sins.
18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in the Anointed One of Yah are perished.
19 If in this life only we have hope in the Anointed One of Yah, we are of all men most miserable.
20 But now is the Anointed One of Yah risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in the Anointed One of Yah shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: the Anointed One of Yah the first fruits; afterward they that are the Anointed One of Yah’s at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the Kingdom to Yah, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
28 And when all things shall be subdued to him, then shall the Son also himself be subject to him that put all things under him, that Yah may be all in all.
31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua our Adonay, I die daily.
34 Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some have not the knowledge of Yah: I speak this to your shame.
38 But Yah gives it a body as it has pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of Yah; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
57 But thanks be to Yah, which gives us the victory through our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, forasmuch as you know that your labour is not in vain in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 16
2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as Yah has prospered him, that there be no collections when I come.
7 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to stay a while with you, if Yah the Eternally Self-Existing suffer.
10 Now if Timotiyos come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he works the work of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, as I also do.
19 The assemblies of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, with the assembly that is in their house.
22 If any man Chesed not Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, let him be cursed Maranatha.
23 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you.
24 My Chesed be with you all in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua. Aměn.
- 6: The Second Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Corinthians
Commentary:
This book provides further teachings to the Corinthian Believers from Shaul {commonly but incorrectly Paul – he was a Hebrew}.
There is a lot of wrong thinking about Shaul so it is vital to note that Rick Joyner reports in “The Final Quest” that Shaul is seated on a high throne in Heaven.
Please read the Introduction and the book of MattihYahoo first as most of the changes and commentary in that book apply to 1 Corinthians as well.

Chapter 1
SHA’UL, an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah by the will of Yah, and Timothy our brother, to the assembly of Yah which is at Corinth, with all the Set-Apart Ones which are in all Achaia:
2 Chen be to you and peace from Yah our Father, and from Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
3 Blessed be Yah, even the Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, the Father of mercies, and the Mighty One of all comfort;
4 Who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of Yah.
5 For as the sufferings of the Anointing of Yah abound in us, so our consolation also abounds by the Anointings of Yah.
9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in Yah which raises the dead:
12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity in Yah, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the Chen of Yah, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly toward you.
14 As also you have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as you also are ours in the day of Adonay Yahooshua.
16 And to pass by you into Makedonia, and to come again out of Makedonia to you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Yahooḏah.
18 But as Yah is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
19 For the Son of Yah, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotiyos, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.
20 For all the promises of Yah in him are yea, and in him Aměn, to the Kavod of Yah by us.
21 Now he which establishes us with you in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and has anointed us, is Yah;
23 Moreover I call Yah for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet to Corinth.
Chapter 2
10 To whom you forgive anything, I forgive also: for if I forgave anything, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of the Anointed One of Yah;
12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah’s Good News, and a door was opened to me of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing,
14 Now thanks be to Yah, which always causes us to triumph in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and makes manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
15 For we are to Yah a sweet savour of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of Yah: but as of sincerity, but as of Yah, in the sight of Yah speak we in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
Chapter 3
3 Forasmuch as you are manifestly declared to be the epistle of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living Yah; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
4 And such trust have we through the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah toward Yah:
5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of Yah;
14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remains the same veil not taken away in the reading of the old covenant; which veil is done away in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, the veil shall be taken away.
17 Now Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the Kavod of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, are changed into the same image from Kavod to Kavod, even as by the Spirit of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
Chapter 4
2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of Yah deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of Yah.
4 In whom the mighty one of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious Good News of the Anointed One of Yah, who is the image of Yah, should shine to them.
5 For we preach not ourselves, but The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua Adonay; and ourselves your servants for Yahooshua’ sake.
6 For Yah, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the Kavod of Yah in the face of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
7 But we have this treasure in Earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of Yah, and not of us.
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of Adonay Yahooshua, that the life also of Yahooshua might be made manifest in our body.
11 For we which live are always delivered to death for Yahooshua’s sake, that the life also of Yahooshua might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
14 Knowing that he which raised up Adonay Yahooshua shall raise us up also by Yahooshua, and shall present us with you.
15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant Chen might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the Kavod of Yah.
Chapter 5
FOR we know that if our Earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of Yah, an house not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens.
5 Now he that has wrought us for the self-same thing is Yah, who also has given to us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come.
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he has done, whether it be good or bad.
11 Knowing therefore the fear of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, we persuade men; but we are made manifest to Yah; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
13 For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to Yah: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.
14 For the Chesed of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah constrains us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:
16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known the Anointed One of Yah after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
17 Therefore if any man be in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of Yah, who has reconciled us to himself by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 To wit, that Yah was in the Anointed One of Yah, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their trespasses to them; and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then we are ambassadors for the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, as though Yah did beseech you by us: we pray you in the Anointed One of Yah’s stead, be you reconciled to Yah.
21 For he has made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of Yah in him.
Chapter 6
WE then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that you receive not the Chen of Yah in vain.
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of Yah, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
7 By the word of truth, by the power of Yah, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
15 And what concord has the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah with Belial? or what part has he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement has the temple of Yah with idols? for you are the temple of the living Mighty One; as Yah has said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their Mighty One, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be you separate, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Almighty.
Chapter 7
HAVING therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting Set-Apartness in the fear of Yah.
6 Nevertheless Yah, that comforts those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;
9 Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that you sorrowed to repentance: for you were made sorry after a manner in Yah, that you might receive suffering by us in nothing.
10 For Yah’ely sorrow works repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world works death.
11 For behold this self-same thing, that you sorrowed after a Yah’ely sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yes, what indignation, yes, what fear, yes, what vehement desire, yes, what zeal, yes, what revenge! In all things you have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
12 Wherefore, though I wrote to you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that sufferted wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of Yah might appear to you.
Chapter 8
MOREOVER, brethren, we do you to wit of the Chen of Yah bestowed on the assemblies of Makedonia;
5 And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and to us by the will of Yah.
9 For you know the Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might be rich.
16 But thanks be to Yah, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.
21 Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, but also in the sight of men.
23 Whether any do inquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellow helper concerning you: or our brethren be inquired of, they are the messengers of the assemblies, and the Kavod of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
Chapter 9
7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for Yah Chesedth a cheerful giver.
8 And Yah is able to make all Chen abound toward you; that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
11 Being enriched in everything to all bountifulness, which causes through us thanksgiving to Yah.
12 For the administration of this service not only supplies the want of the Set-Apart Ones, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings to Yah;
13 Whiles by the proof of this ministration they Kavod Yah for your professed subjection to the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and for your liberal distribution to them, and to all men;
14 And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding Chen of Yah in you.
15 Thanks be to Yah for his unspeakable gift.
Chapter 10
NOW I Sha’ul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, who in presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through Yah to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of Yah, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah;
7 Do you look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to himself that he is the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah’s, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah’s, even so are we the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah’s.
8 For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:
13 But we will not boast of things without our measure, but according to the measure of the rule which Yah has distributed to us, a measure to reach even to you.
14 For we do not overextend ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not to you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah:
17 But he that glorieth, let him Kavod in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
18 For not he that commends himself is approved, but whom Yah the Eternally Self-Existing commend.
Chapter 11
WOULD to Yah you could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.
2 For I am jealous over you with Yah’ely jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste bethulah to the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Yahooshua, whom we have not preached, or if you receive another spirit, which you have not received, or another Good News, which you have not accepted, you might well bear with him.
7 Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that you might be exalted, because I have preached to you the Good News of Yah freely?
10 As the truth of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11 Wherefore? because I Chesed you not? Yah knows.
13 For such are false Emissaries, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the Emissaries of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
17 That which I speak, I speak it not after Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.
23 Are they ministers of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
24 Of the Yahoodi’iy five times received I forty stripes save one.
31 The Mighty One and Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, which is blessed for evermore, knows that I lie not.
Chapter 12
IT is not expedient for me doubtless to Kavod. I will come to visions and revelations of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
2 I know a man in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah about fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: Yah knows;) such a one caught up to the third Heaven.
3 And I know such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: Yah knows;)
8 For this thing I besought Yah the Eternally Self-Existing thrice, that it might depart from me.
9 And he said to me, My Chen is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather Kavod in my infirmities, that the power of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah may rest upon me.
10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for the Anointing of Yah’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
19 Again, think you that we excuse ourselves to you? we speak before Yah in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.
Chapter 13
3 Since you seek a proof of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
4 For though he was executed through weakness, yet he lives by the power of Yah. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of Yah toward you.
5 Examine yourselves, whether you be in the Emunah; prove your own selves. Know you not your own selves, how that Yahooshua’s Anointing is in you, except you be reprobates?
7 Now I pray to Yah that you do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that you should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.
10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has given me to edification, and not to destruction.
11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the Yah of Chesed and peace shall be with you.
14 The Chen of Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and the Chesed of Yah, and the communion of the Set-Apart Spirit, be with you all. Aměn.
- 7: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Galatians
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, an emissary, (not of men, neither by man, but by Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah, and Yah the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
3 Chen be to you and peace from Yah the Father, and from our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah,
6 I marvel that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the Chen of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah to another Good News:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
10 For do I now persuade men, or Yah? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
13 For you have heard of my conversation in time past in the Yahoodi’iy’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of Yah, and ravaged it:
14 And profited in the Yahoodi’iy’ religion above many of my equals in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when it pleased Yah, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his Chen,
20 Now the things which I write to you, behold, before Yah, I lie not.
22 And was unknown by face to the assemblies of Yahooḏah which were in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah:
24 And they Kavod Yah in me.
Chapter 2
4 And that because of false brethren brought in sneakily, who sneaked in to spy out our liberty which we have in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, that they might bring us into bondage:
6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: Yah shows no partiality:) for they who seemed to be esteemed added nothing to me:
9 And when Ya‛aqoḇ, Kěpha, and Yahoochanan, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the Chen that was given to me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go to the heathen, and they to the circumcision.
13 And the other Yahoodi’iy dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their hypocrisy.
14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the Good News, I said to Kepha before them all, If thou, being a Yahoodi’iy, lives after the manner of Ha-goyim, and not as do the Yahoodi’iy, why do you compel the Ha-goyim to live as do the Yahoodi’iy?
15 We who are Yahoodi’iy by nature, and not sinners of the Ha-goyim,
16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Torah, but by the Emunah of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, even we have believed in Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, that we might be justified by the Emunah of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and not by the works of the Torah: for by the works of the Torah shall no flesh be justified.
17 But if, while we seek to be justified by the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah the minister of sin? Yah forbid.
19 For I through the Commandments am dead to the Torah, that I might live to Yah.
20 I am executed with the Anointed One of Yah: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the Emunah of the Son of Yah, who Cheseded me, and gave himself for me.
21 I do not frustrate the Chen of Yah: for if righteousness come by the Torah, then the Anointed One of Yah is dead in vain.
Chapter 3
O FOOLISH Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah has been evidently set forth, executed among you?
6 Even as Abraham believed Yah, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
8 And the writings, foreseeing that Yah would justify the heathen through Emunah, preached before the Good News to Abraham, saying, In you all nations shall be blessed.
11 But that no man is justified by the Torah in the sight of Yah, it is evident: for, The just shall live by Emunah.
13 the Anointed One of Yah has redeemed us from the curse of the Torah, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Ha-goyim through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through Emunah.
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is the Anointed One of Yah.
17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of Yah in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, the Torah, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
18 For if the inheritance be of the Torah, it is no more of promise: but Yah gave it to Abraham by promise.
20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but Yah is one.
21 Are the Commandments then against the promises of Yah? Yah forbid: for if there had been a Torah given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the Torah.
22 But the writing has concluded all under sin, that the promise by Emunah of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah might be given to them that believe.
24 Wherefore the Torah was our schoolmaster to bring us to the Anointed One of Yah, that we might be justified by Emunah.
26 For you are all the children of Yah by Emunah in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
27 For as many of you as have been immersed into the Anointed One of Yah have put on the Anointed One of Yah.
28 There is neither Yahoodi’iy nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
29 And if you be the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah’s, then are you Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Chapter 4
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, Yah sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the Torah,
6 And because you are sons, Yah has sent forth the Spirit that was in his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of Yah through the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
8 But then, when you did not know Yah, you did service to them which by nature are not mighty ones.
9 But now, after that you have known Yah, or rather are known of Yah, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto you desire again to be in bondage?
14 And my temptation which was in my flesh you despised not, nor rejected; but received me as a messenger of Yah, even as The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is formed in you,
Chapter 5
STAND fast therefore in the liberty wherewith the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Behold, I Sha’ul say to you, that if you are circumcised, the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah shall profit you nothing.
4 the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah has become of no effect to you, whosoever of you are justified by the Torah; you are fallen from Chen.
6 For in Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision; but Emunah which works by Chesed.
10 I have confidence in you through Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that you will be no otherwise minded: but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he is.
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, wild parties, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the Kingdom of Yah.
24 And they that are the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah’s have executed the flesh with the affections and lusts.
Chapter 6
2 Bear you one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
7 Be not deceived; Yah is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
12 As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the Stake of the Anointed One of Yah.
14 But Yah forbid that I should Kavod, save in the Stake of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah, by whom the world is executed to me, and I to the world.
15 For in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and Chen, and upon the Yisra’El of Yah.
17 From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of Adonay Yahooshua.
18 Brethren, the Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with your spirit. Aměn.
- 8: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Ephesians
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah by the will of Yah, to the Set-Apart Ones which are at Ephesos, and to the faithful in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
2 Chen be to you, and peace, from Yah our Father, and from Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
3 Blessed be the Mighty One and Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in Heavenly places in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah:
5 Having predestinated us to the adoption of children by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, both which are in Heaven, and which are on Earth; even in him:
12 That we should be to the praise of his Kavod, who first trusted in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your Emunah in Adonay Yahooshua, and Chesed to all the Set-Apart Ones,
17 That the Mighty One of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, the Father of Kavod, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
20 Which he wrought in the Anointed One of Yah, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the Heavenly places,
4 But Yah, who is rich in mercy, for his great Chesed wherewith he Cheseded us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us together with the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, (by Chen you are saved;)
6 And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in Heavenly places in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his Chen in his kindness toward us through The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
8 For by Chen are you saved through Emunah; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of Yah:
10 For we are his workmanship, created in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua to good works, which Yah has before ordained that we should walk in them.
12 That at that time you were without the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, being aliens from the commonwealth of Yisra’El, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without Yah in the world:
13 But now in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua you who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
16 And that he might reconcile both to Yah in one body by the Stake, having slain the enmity thereby:
19 Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the Set-Apart Ones, and of the household of Yah;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the Emissaries and Spokesmen of Yah, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah himself being the chief corner stone;
21 In whom all the building fitly framed together grows to a Set-Apart temple in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
22 In whom you also are built together for an habitation of Yah through the Spirit.
Chapter 3
FOR this cause I Sha’ul, the prisoner of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah for you Ha-goyim,
2 If you have heard of the dispensation of the Chen of Yah which is given me to you-ward:
4 Whereby, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah)
5 Which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his Set-Apart Emissaries and Spokesmen of Yah by the Spirit;
6 That the Ha-goyim should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah by the Good News:
7 Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the Chen of Yah given to me by the effectual working of his power.
8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all Set-Apart Ones, is this Chen given, that I should preach among the Ha-goyim the unsearchable riches of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah;
9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world has been hid in Yah, who created all things by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
10 To the intent that now to the principalities and powers in Heavenly places might be known by the assembly the manifold wisdom of Yah,
11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua our Adonay:
14 For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah,
17 That the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah may dwell in your hearts by Emunah; that you, being rooted and grounded in Chesed,
19 And to know the Chesed of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fulness of Yah.
21 Unto him be Kavod in the assembly by The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua throughout all ages, world without end. Aměn.
Chapter 4
I THEREFORE, the prisoner of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, beseech you that you walk worthy of the vocation wherewith you are called,
7 But to every one of us is given Chen according to the measure of the gift of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
11 And he gave some, Emissaries; and some, Spokesmen of Yah; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the Set-Apart Ones, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the Emunah, and of the knowledge of the Son of Yah, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of the Anointed One of Yah:
15 But speaking the truth in Chesed, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even the Anointed One of Yah:
17 This I say therefore, and testify in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that you henceforth walk not as other Ha-goyim walk, in the vanity of their mind,
18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of Yah through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
20 But you have not so learned the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah;
21 If so be that you have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Yahooshua:
24 And that you put on the new man, which after Yah is created in righteousness and true Set-Apartness.
30 And grieve not the Set-Apart Spirit of Yah, whereby you are sealed to the day of redemption.
32 And be you kind one to another, tender hearted, forgiving one another, even as the Mighty One for the Anointed One of Yah’s sake has forgiven you.
Chapter 5
BE you therefore followers of Yah, as dear children;
2 And walk in Chesed, as the Anointed One of Yah also has Cheseded us, and has given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to Yah for a sweet smelling fragrance.
5 For this you know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of the Anointed One of Yah and of Yah.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of Yah upon the children of disobedience.
8 For you were sometimes darkness, but now are you light in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: walk as children of light:
10 Proving what is acceptable to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleep, and arise from the dead, and the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah shall give thee light.
17 Wherefore be you not unwise, but understanding what the will of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is.
19 Speaking to yourselves in Psalms and songs of praise and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing;
20 Giving thanks always for all things to Yah the Father in the name of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah;
21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of Yah.
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as the Anointed One of Yah is the head of the assembly: and he is the saviour of the body.
24 Therefore as the assembly is subject to the Anointed One of Yah, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.
25 Husbands, Chesed your wives, even as the Anointed One of Yah also Cheseded the assembly, and gave himself for it;
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Yah the Eternally Self-Existing the assembly:
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah and the assembly.
Chapter 6
CHILDREN, obey your parents in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: for this is right.
4 And, you fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
5 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to the Anointed One of Yah;
6 Not with eye service, as men pleasers; but as the servants of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, doing the will of Yah from the heart;
7 With good will doing service, as to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and not to men:
8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, whether he be bond or free.
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of Yah, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
13 Wherefore take to you the whole armour of Yah, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Commandments of Yah:
21 But that you also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tuchikos, a beloved brother and emunahful minister in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, shall make known to you all things:
23 Peace be to the brethren, and Chesed with Emunah, from Yah the Father and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
24 Chen be with all them that Chesed our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah in sincerity. Aměn.
- 9: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Philippians
Chapter 1
SHA’UL and Timotiyos, the servants of Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah, to all the Set-Apart Ones in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua which are at Philippi, with the Overseers and Attendants:
2 Chen be to you, and peace, from Yah our Father, and from Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah.
6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah:
8 For Yah is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the affection of Yahooshua the Anointed of Yah.
10 That you may approve things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offence till the day of the Anointed One of Yah;
11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, to the Kavod and praise of Yah.
13 So that my bonds in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;
14 And many of the brethren in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
15 Some indeed preach the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
16 The one preach the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah out of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
19 For I know that this shall turn to my deliverance through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit that was upon Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah,
20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
21 For to me to live is the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and to die is gain.
23 For I am in a pressed down by the two, having a desire to depart, and to be with the Anointed One of Yah; which is far better:
26 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah for me by my coming to you again.
27 Only let your conversation be as it fitting the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the Emunah of the Good News;
28 And in nothing frightened by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of destruction, but to you of deliverance, and that of Yah.
29 For to you it is given in the behalf of the Anointed One of Yah, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
Chapter 2
IF there be therefore any consolation in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, if any comfort of Chesed, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion,
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
6 Who, being in the form of Yah, did not regard equality with Yah a matter to be grasped:
9 Wherefore Yah also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Yahooshua every knee should bow, of things in Heaven, and things in Earth, and things under the Earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah is Adonay, to the Kavod of Yah the Father.
13 For it is Yah which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
15 That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of Yah, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights in the world;
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of the Anointed One of Yah, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
19 But I trust in Adonay Yahooshua to send Timotiyos shortly to you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah’s.
24 But I trust in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing that I also myself shall come shortly.
27 For indeed he was sick nigh to death: but Yah had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
29 Receive him therefore in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
30 Because for the work of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah he was nigh to death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
Chapter 3
FINALLY, my brethren, rejoice in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.
3 For we are the circumcision, which worship Yah in the spirit, and rejoice in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, and have no confidence in the flesh.
7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua my Adonay: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win the Anointed One of Yah,
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the Torah, but that which is through the Emunah of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, the righteousness which is of Yah by Emunah:
12 Not as though I had already received, either were already perfect: but I press on, to lay hold of that for which also I am laid hold of The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of Yah in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything you be otherwise minded, Yah shall reveal even this to you.
18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the Stake of the Anointed One of Yah:
20 For our conversation is in Heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
Chapter 4
THEREFORE, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, my dearly beloved.
2 I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
4 Rejoice in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing always: and again I say, Rejoice.
5 Let your gentleness be known to all men. Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is at hand.
6 Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to Yah.
7 And the peace of Yah, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
10 But I rejoiced in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing greatly, that now at the last your care of me has flourished again; wherein you were also concerned, but you lacked opportunity.
13 I can do all things through the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah which strengths me.
18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to Yah.
19 But my Mighty One shall supply all your need according to his riches in Kavod by The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
20 Now to Yah and our Father be Kavod for ever and ever. Aměn.
21 Salute every saint in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua. The brethren which are with me greet you.
23 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you all. Aměn.
- 10: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Colossians
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah by the will of Yah, and Timotiyos our brother,
2 To the Set-Apart Ones and emunahful brethren in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah which are at Colosse: Chen be to you, and peace, from Yah our Father and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
3 We give thanks to Yah and the Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, praying always for you,
4 Since we heard of your Emunah in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, and of the Chesed which you have to all the Set-Apart Ones,
6 Which is come to you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day you heard of it, and knew the Chen of Yah in truth:
7 As you also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a emunahful minister of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah;
10 That you might walk worthy of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing to all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of Yah;
15 Who is the image of the invisible Yah, the firstborn of every creature:
24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly:
25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of Yah which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of Yah;
27 To whom Yah would make known what is the riches of the Kavod of this mystery among the Ha-goyim; which is the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah in you, the hope of Kavod:
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua:
Chapter 2
2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in Chesed, and to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of Yah, and of the Father, and of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah;
5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your Emunah in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
6 As you have therefore received The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Adonay Yahooshua, so walk you in him:
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
11 In whom also you are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah:
12 Buried with him in immersion, wherein also you are risen with him through the Emunah of the operation of Yah, who has raised him from the dead.
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of Yah.
20 Wherefore if you be dead with the Anointed One of Yah from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are you subject to ordinances,
Chapter 3
IF you then be risen with the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, seek those things which are above, where the Anointed One of Yah sitteth on the right hand of Yah.
3 For you are dead, and your life is hid with the Anointed One of Yah in Yah.
4 When the Anointed One of Yah, who is our life, shall appear, then shall you also appear with him in Kavod.
6 For which things’ sake the wrath of Yah cometh on the children of disobedience:
11 Where there is neither Greek nor Yahoodi’iy, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is all, and in all.
12 Put on therefore, as the elect of Yah, Set-Apart and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as the Yahooshua forgave you, so also do you.
15 And let the peace of Yah rule in your hearts, to the which also you are called in one body; and be you thankful.
16 Let the word of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in Tehillim and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with Chen in your hearts to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
17 And whatsoever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of Adonay Yahooshua, giving thanks to Yah and the Father by him.
18 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as it is fit in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as men pleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing Yah:
23 And whatsoever you do, do it heartily, as to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and not to men;
24 Knowing that of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing you shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for you serve Yah the Eternally Self-Existing the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
Chapter 4
3 Withal praying also for us, that Yah would open to us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, for which I am also in bonds:
7 All my state shall Tuchikos declare to you, who is a beloved brother, and a emunahful minister and fellow servant in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
11 And Yahooshua, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellow workers to the Kingdom of Yah, which have been a comfort to me.
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of Yah.
17 And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou has received in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that thou fulfil it.
- 11: The First Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Thessalonians
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, and Silvanus, and Timotiyos, to the assembly of Thessalonians which is in Yah the Father and in Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah: Chen be to you, and peace, from Yah our Father, and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
2 We give thanks to Yah always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
3 Remembering without ceasing your work of Emunah, and labour of Chesed, and patience of hope in our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, in the sight of Yah and our Father;
4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of Yah.
6 And you became followers of us, and of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Set-Apart Spirit:
8 For from you sounded out the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing not only in Makedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your Emunah to Yah-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had to you, and how you turned to Yah from idols to serve the living and true Mighty One;
10 And to wait for his Son from Heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Yahooshua, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
Chapter 2
2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as you know, at Philippi, we were bold in our Mighty One to speak to you the Good News of Yah with much contention.
4 But as we were allowed of Yah to be put in trust with the Good News, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but Yah, which trieth our hearts.
5 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as you know, nor a cloke of covetousness; Yah is witness:
6 Nor of men sought we Kavod, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the Emissaries of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
8 So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not the Good News of Yah only, but also our own souls, because you were dear to us.
9 For you remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable to any of you, we preached to you the Good News of Yah.
10 Ye are witnesses, and Yah also, how set-apartly and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
12 That you would walk worthy of Yah, who has called you to his Kingdom and Kavod.
13 For this cause also thank we Yah without ceasing, because, when you received the word of Yah which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of Yah, which effectually works also in you that believe.
14 For you, brethren, became followers of the assemblies of Yah which in Yahooḏah are in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua: for you also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Yahoodi’iy:
15 Who both killed Adonay Yahooshua, and their own Spokesmen of Yah, and have persecuted us; and they please not Yah, and are contrary to all men:
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even you in the presence of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah at his coming?
Chapter 3
2 And sent Timotiyos, our brother, and minister of Yah, and our fellow labourer in the Good News of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your Emunah:
8 For now we live, if you stand fast in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
9 For what thanks can we render to Yah again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our Mighty One;
11 Now Yah himself and our Father, and our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, direct our way to you.
12 And Yah the Eternally Self-Existing make you to increase and abound in Chesed one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:
13 To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in Set-Apartness before Yah, even our Father, at the coming of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah with all his Set-Apart Ones.
Chapter 4
FURTHERMORE then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by Adonay Yahooshua, that as you have received of us how you ought to walk and to please Yah, so you would abound more and more.
2 For you know what commandments we gave you by Adonay Yahooshua.
3 For this is the will of Yah, even your sanctification, that you should abstain from fornication:
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Ha-goyim which know not Yah:
6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7 For Yah has not called us to uncleanness, but to Set-Apartness.
8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but Yah, who has also given to us his Set-Apart Spirit.
9 But as touching brotherly Chesed you need not that I write to you: for you yourselves are taught of Yah to Chesed one another.
14 For if we believe that Yahooshua died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Yahooshua will Yah bring with him.
15 For this we say to you by the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, that we which are alive and remain to the coming of Adonay shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For Adonay himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archmessenger, and with the trump of Yah: and the dead in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah shall rise first:
Chapter 5
9 For Yah has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah,
12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and admonish you;
18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of Yah in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua concerning you.
23 And the very Yah of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray Yah your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless to the coming of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
27 I charge you by Yah the Eternally Self-Existing that this epistle be read to all the Set-Apart brethren.
28 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you. Aměn.
- 12: The Second Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Thessalonians
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, and Silvanus, and Timotiyos, to the assembly of thessalonians in Yah our Father and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
2 Chen to you, and peace, from Yah our Father and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
3 We are bound to thank Yah always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your Emunah groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;
4 So that we ourselves Kavod in you in the assemblies of Yah for your patience and Emunah in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure:
5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of Yah, that you may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of Yah, for which you also suffer:
6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with Yah to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when Adonay Yahooshua shall be revealed from Heaven with his mighty Messengers,
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not Yah, and that obey not the Good News of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and from the Kavod of his power;
12 That the name of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah may be Kavod in you, and you in him, according to the Chen of our Mighty One and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
Chapter 2
NOW we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and by our gathering together to him,
2 That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah is at hand.
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called Yah, or that is bowed down; so that he as Yah sitteth in the temple of Yah, shewing himself that he is Yah.
11 And for this cause Yah shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
13 But we are bound to give thanks always to Yah for you, brethren beloved of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, because Yah has from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
14 Whereunto he called you by our Good News, to the obtaining of the Kavod of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
16 Now our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah himself, and Yah, even our Father, which has Cheseded us, and has given us everlasting consolation and good hope through Chen,
Chapter 3
FINALLY, brethren, pray for us, that the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing may have free course, and be Kavod, even as it is with you:
3 But Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil.
4 And we have confidence in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing touching you, that you both do and will do the things which we command you.
5 And Yah the Eternally Self-Existing direct your hearts into the Chesed of Yah, and into the patient waiting for the Anointed One of Yah.
6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
16 Now Yah the Eternally Self-Existing of peace himself give you peace always by all means. Yah the Eternally Self-Existing be with you all.
18 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you all. Aměn.
- 13: The First Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to Timothy
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah by the commandment of Yah our Saviour, and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, which is our hope;
2 Unto Timothy, my own son in the Emunah: Chen, mercy, and peace, from Yah our Father and Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Adonay.
12 And I thank The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua our Adonay, who has enabled me, for that he counted me emunahful, putting me into the ministry;
14 And the Chen of our Adonay was exceeding abundant with Emunah and Chesed which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
15 This is a emunahful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise Yah, be honour and Kavod for ever and ever. Aměn.
CHAPTER 2
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of Yah our Saviour;
5 For there is one Mighty One, and one mediator between Yah and men, the man The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua;
7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an emissary, (I speak the truth in the Anointed One of Yah, and lie not;) a teacher of the Ha-goyim in Emunah and verity.
CHAPTER 3
5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the assembly of Yah?)
13 For they that have used the office of a Attendant well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the Emunah which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of Yah, which is the assembly of the living Mighty One, the pillar and ground of the truth.
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of mighty oneliness: Yah was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of Messengers, preached to the Ha-goyim, believed on in the world, received up into Kavod.
CHAPTER 4
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which Yah has created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of Yah is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5 For it is sanctified by the word of Yah and prayer.
6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, nourished up in the words of Emunah and of good teaching, whereunto thou has attained.
10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living Yah, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
CHAPTER 5
4 But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before Yah.
5 Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in Yah, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.
11 But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, they will marry;
21 I charge thee before Yah, and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and the elect Messengers, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.
CHAPTER 6
LET as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of Yah and his teaching be not blasphemed.
3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and to the teaching which is according to mighty oneliness;
11 But thou, O man of Yah, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, mighty oneliness, Emunah, Chesed, patience, meekness.
13 I give thee charge in the sight of Yah, who quickeneth all things, and before The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;
14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living Yah, who gives us richly all things to enjoy;
- 14: The Second Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to Timothy
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah by the will of Yah, according to the promise of life which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua,
2 To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Chen, mercy, and peace, from Yah the Father and The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua our Adonay.
3 I thank Yah, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of Yah, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
7 For Yah has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of Chesed, and of a sound mind.
8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Adonay, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the Good News according to the power of Yah;
9 Who has saved us, and called us with an Set-Apart calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and Chen, which was given us in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua before the world began,
10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, who has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the Good News:
13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou has heard of me, in Emunah and Chesed which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
16 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
18 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing grant to him that he may find mercy of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing in that day: and in how many things he ministered to me at Ephesos, thou knowest very well.
CHAPTER 2
THOU therefore, my son, be strong in the Chen that is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
7 Consider what I say; and Yah the Eternally Self-Existing give thee understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah of the seed of Dawid was raised from the dead according to my Good News:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even to bonds; but the word of Yah is not bound.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua with eternal Kavod.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before Yah the Eternally Self-Existing that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Study to shew thyself approved to Yah, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
19 Nevertheless the foundation of Yah stands sure, having this seal, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing knows them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of the Anointed One of Yah depart from iniquity.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, Emunah, charity, peace, with them that call on Yah the Eternally Self-Existing out of a pure heart.
24 And the servant of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing must not strive; but be gentle to all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if Yah peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
CHAPTER 3
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, Chesedrs of pleasures more than Chesedrs of Yah;
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came to me at Antioch, at Ikonion, at Lustra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all Yah the Eternally Self-Existing delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live mighty onely in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua shall suffer persecution.
15 And that from a child thou has known the Set-Apart writings, which are able to make thee wise to salvation through Emunah which is in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of Yah, and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of Yah may be perfect, throughly furnished to all good works.
CHAPTER 4
I CHARGE thee therefore before Yah, and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom;
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but to all them also that Chesed his appearing.
14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: Yah the Eternally Self-Existing reward him according to his works:
16 At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray Yah that it may not be laid to their charge.
17 Notwithstanding Yah the Eternally Self-Existing stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Ha-goyim might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
18 And Yah the Eternally Self-Existing shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me to his Heavenly Kingdom: to whom be Kavod for ever and ever. Aměn.
22 Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with thy spirit. Chen be with you. Aměn.
- 15: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to Titus
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, a servant of Yah, and an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, according to the Emunah of Yah’s elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after mighty oneliness;
2 In hope of eternal life, which Yah, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
3 But has in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed to me according to the commandment of Yah our Saviour;
4 To Titus, mine own son after the common Emunah: Chen, mercy, and peace, from Yah the Father and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Saviour.
7 For a Overseer must be blameless, as the steward of Yah; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
12 One of themselves, even a Spokesman of Yah of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
14 Not giving heed to Yahoodi’iyish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
16 They profess that they know Yah; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate.
CHAPTER 2
5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of Yah be not blasphemed.
10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the teaching of Yah our Saviour in all things.
11 For the Chen of Yah that bringeth salvation has appeared to all men,
13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great Yah and our Saviour Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah;
CHAPTER 3
4 But after that the kindness and Chesed of Yah our Saviour toward man appeared,
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah our Saviour;
8 This is a emunahful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in Yah might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.
- 16: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to Philemon
Chapter 1
SHA’UL, a prisoner of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
3 Chen to you, and peace, from Yah our Father and Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
4 I thank my Yah, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
5 Hearing of thy Chesed and Emunah, which thou has toward Adonay Yahooshua, and toward all Set-Apart Ones;
6 That the communication of thy Emunah may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua.
8 Wherefore, though I might be much bold in the Anointed One of Yah to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
9 Yet for Chesed’s sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Sha’ul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
16 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more to thee, both in the flesh, and in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing?
20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: refresh my bowels in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua;
25 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with your spirit. Aměn.
- 17: The Letter of Shaul {
Paul} to the Ibrim {Hebrews}
Chapter 1
THE ALMIGHTY, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past to the fathers by the Spokesmen of Yah,
6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the Messengers of Yah worship him.
8 But to the Son he saith, Thy throne, O Yah, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy Kingdom.
9 Thou has Cheseded righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore Yah, even thy Yah, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
CHAPTER 2
3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and was confirmed to us by them that heard him;
4 Yah also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Set-Apart Spirit, according to his own will?
9 But we see Yahooshua, who was made a little lower than the Messengers for the suffering of death, crowned with Kavod and honour; that he by the Chen of Yah should taste death for every man.
13 And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which Yah has given me.
17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like to his brethren, that he might be a merciful and emunahful High Priest in things pertaining to Yah, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
CHAPTER 3
WHEREFORE, Set-Apart brethren, partakers of the Heavenly calling, consider the Emissary and High Priest of our profession, The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua;
4 For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is Yah.
6 But the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living Yah.
14 For we are made partakers of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast to the end;
CHAPTER 4
4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And Yah did rest the seventh day from all his works.
8 For if Yahooshua had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of Yah.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as Yah did from his.
12 For the word of Yah is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, that is passed into the Heavens, Yahooshua the Son of Yah, let us hold fast our profession.
CHAPTER 5
FOR every High Priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to Yah, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:
4 And no man taketh this honour to himself, but he that is called of Yah, as was Aaron.
5 So also the Anointed One of Yah Kavod not himself to be made an High Priest; but he that said to him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
10 Called of Yah an High Priest after the order of Melchisedec.
12 For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of Yah; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
CHAPTER 6
THEREFORE leaving the principles of the teaching of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, let us go on to perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of Emunah toward Yah,
3 And this will we do, if Yah suffer.
5 And have tasted the good word of Yah, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again to repentance; seeing they execute to themselves the Son of Yah afresh, and put him to an open shame.
7 For the Earth which drinks in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receives blessing from Yah:
10 For Yah is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of Chesed, which you have shewed toward his name, in that you have ministered to the Set-Apart Ones, and do minister.
13 For when Yah made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
17 Wherein Yah, willing more abundantly to shew to the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for Yah to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Yahooshua, made an High Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
CHAPTER 7
FOR this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high Yah, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like to the Son of Yah; abideth a priest continually.
19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh to Yah.
21 (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said to him, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
22 By so much was Yahooshua made a surety of a better testament.
25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come to Yah by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them.
CHAPTER 8
2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which Yah the Eternally Self-Existing pitched, and not man.
5 Who serve to the example and shadow of Heavenly things, as Moshe was admonished of Yah when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Yisra’El and with the house of Yahoowdah:
9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Mitsrayim; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Yisra’El after those days, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a Yah, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yah the Eternally Self-Existing: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
CHAPTER 9
6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of Yah.
11 But the Anointed One of Yah being come an High Priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
14 How much more shall the blood of the Anointed One of Yah, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to Yah, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living Yah?
20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which Yah has enjoined to you.
24 For the Anointed One of Yah is not entered into the Set-Apart places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of Yah for us:
28 So the Anointed One of Yah was once offered to bear the sins of many; and to them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin to salvation.
CHAPTER 10
7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O Yah.
9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O Yah. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah once for all.
12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of Yah;
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Yahooshua,
21 And having an High Priest over the house of Yah;
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose you, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of Yah, and has counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unSet-Apart thing, and has done despite to the Spirit of Chen?
30 For we know him that has said, Vengeance belongeth to me, I will recompense, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing. And again, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living Yah.
36 For you have need of patience, that, after you have done the will of Yah, you might receive the promise.
CHAPTER 11
3 Through Emunah we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of Yah, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
4 By Emunah Heḇel offered to Yah a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, Yah testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaks.
5 By Emunah Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because Yah had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased Yah.
6 But without Emunah it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to Yah must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
7 By Emunah Noah, being warned of Yah of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by Emunah.
10 For he looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is Yah.
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an Heavenly: wherefore Yah is not ashamed to be called their Mighty One: for he has prepared for them a city.
19 Accounting that Yah was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of Yah, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of the Anointed One of Yah greater riches than the treasures in Mitsrayim: for he had respect to the recomdenarii of the reward.
32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of Dawid also, and Samuel, and of the Spokesmen of Yah:
40 Yah having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
CHAPTER 12
2 Looking to Yahooshua the author and finisher of our Emunah; who for the joy that was set before him endured the Stake, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of Yah.
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Chesedth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receives.
7 If you endure chastening, Yah dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
14 Follow peace with all men, and Set-Apartness, without which no man shall see Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the Chen of Yah; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
23 To the general assembly and assembly of the firstborn, which are written in Heaven, and to Yah the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Yahooshua the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaks better things than that of Heḇel.
28 Wherefore we receiving a Kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have Chen, whereby we may serve Yah acceptably with reverence and mighty onely fear:
CHAPTER 13
4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers Yah will judge.
6 So that we may boldly say, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.
7 Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken to you the word of Yah: whose Emunah follow, considering the end of their conversation.
8 Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
12 Wherefore Yahooshua also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, sufferted without the gate.
15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to Yah continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
16 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices Yah is well pleased.
20 Now the Mighty One of peace, that brought again from the dead our Adonay Yahooshua, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah; to whom be Kavod for ever and ever. Aměn.

James}
Chapter 1
YA‛AQOḆ, a servant of Yah and of Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of Yah, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which Yah the Eternally Self-Existing has promised to them that Chesed him.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of Yah: for Yah cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
20 For the wrath of man works not the righteousness of Yah.
27 Pure religion and undefiled before Yah and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
CHAPTER 2
MY brethren, have not the Emunah of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, Adonay of Kavod, with respect of persons.
5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not Yah chosen the poor of this world rich in Emunah, and heirs of the Kingdom which he has promised to them that Chesed him?
23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed Yah, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of Yah.
CHAPTER 3
9 Therewith bless we Yah, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of Yah.
CHAPTER 4
4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with Yah? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of Yah.
6 But he gives more Chen. Wherefore he saith, Yah resisteth the proud, but gives Chen to the humble.
7 Submit yourselves therefore to Yah. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Draw nigh to Yah, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded.
10 Humble yourselves in the sight of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, and he shall lift you up.
15 For that you ought to say, If Yah the Eternally Self-Existing will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
CHAPTER 5
4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing of sabaoth.
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, to the coming of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the Earth, and has long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
10 Take, my brethren, the Spokesmen of Yah, who have spoken in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing; that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the assembly; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing:
15 And the prayer of Emunah shall save the sick, and Yah the Eternally Self-Existing shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
17 EliYahoo was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the Earth by the space of three years and six months.

Peter}
Chapter 1
KĚPHA, an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of Yah the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah: Chen to you, and peace, be multiplied.
3 Blessed be the Yah and Father of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, which according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again to a lively hope by the resurrection of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah from the dead,
5 Who are kept by the power of Yah through Emunah to salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
7 That the trial of your Emunah, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found to praise and honour and Kavod at the appearing of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
10 Of which salvation the Spokesmen of Yah have inquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the Chen that should come to you:
11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of the Anointed One of Yah which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of the Anointed One of Yah, and the Kavod that should follow.
13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the Chen that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah;
19 But with the precious blood of the Anointed One of Yah, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
21 Who by him do believe in Yah, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him Kavod; that your Emunah and hope might be in Yah.
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of Yah, which lives and abideth for ever.
25 But the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the Good News is preached to you.
CHAPTER 2
3 If so be you have tasted that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is gracious.
4 To whom coming, as to a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of Yah, and precious,
5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an Set-Apart priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to Yah by Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of Yah: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
12 Having your conversation honest among the Ha-goyim: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, Kavod Yah in the day of visitation.
13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
15 For so is the will of Yah, that with well doing you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
16 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of Yah.
17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear Yah. Honour the king.
19 For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward Yah endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
20 For what Kavod is it, if, when you be buffeted for your faults, you shall take it patiently? but if, when you do well, and suffer for it, you take it patiently, this is acceptable with Yah.
21 For even hereunto were you called: because the Anointed One of Yah also sufferted for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow his steps:
CHAPTER 3
4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of Yah of great price.
5 For after this manner in the old time the Set-Apart women also, who trusted in Yah, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
12 For the eyes of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing are over the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayers: but the face of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is against them that do evil.
15 But sanctify Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Mighty One in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
17 For it is better, if the will of Yah be so, that you suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
18 For the Anointed One of Yah also has once sufferted for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to Yah, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of Yah waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
21 The like figure whereunto even immersion doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward Yah,) by the resurrection of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
22 Who is gone into Heaven, and is on the right hand of Yah; Messengers and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
CHAPTER 4
FORASMUCH then as the Anointed One of Yah has sufferted for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that has sufferted in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of Yah.
6 For for this cause was the Good News preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to Yah in the spirit.
10 As every man has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold Chen of Yah.
11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of Yah; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which Yah gives: that Yah in all things may be Kavod through Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Aměn.
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of the Anointed One of Yah’s sufferings; that, when his Kavod shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 If you be reproached for the name of the Anointed One of Yah, happy are you; for the spirit of Kavod and of Yah resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is Kavod.
16 Yet if any man suffer as an Anointed one of Yah, let him not be ashamed; but let him Kavod Yah on this behalf.
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of Yah: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the Good News of Yah?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of Yah commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as to a emunahful Creator.
CHAPTER 5
THE elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Anointed One of Yah, and also a partaker of the Kavod that shall be revealed:
2 Feed the flock of Yah which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
3 Neither as being lords over Yah’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.
5 Likewise, you younger, submit yourselves to the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for Yah resisteth the proud, and gives Chen to the humble.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of Yah, that he may exalt you in due time:
10 But the Mighty One of all Chen, who has called us to his eternal Kavod by The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua, after that you have sufferted a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
12 By Silvanus, a emunahful brother to you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true Chen of Yah wherein you stand.
14 Greet you one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in The Anointing of the Spirit of Yah that was upon Yahooshua. Aměn.
- 20: The Second General Letter of Kěpha {
Peter}
Chapter 1
SIMON Kepha, a servant and an emissary of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, to them that have obtained like precious Emunah with us through the righteousness of Yah and our Saviour Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah:
2 Chen and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of Yah, and of Yahooshua our Adonay,
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that you shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting Kingdom of our Adonay and Saviour Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
14 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah has shewed me.
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 For he received from Yah the Father honour and Kavod, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent Kavod, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but Set-Apart men of Yah spake as they were moved by the Set-Apart Spirit.
CHAPTER 2
BUT there were false Spokesmen of Yah also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying Yah the Eternally Self-Existing that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
4 For if Yah spared not the Messengers that sinned, but cast them down to Hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved to judgment;
9 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing knows how to deliver the mighty onely out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished:
11 Whereas Messengers, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before Yah the Eternally Self-Existing.
16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the Spokesman of Yah.
20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of Adonay and Saviour Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
CHAPTER 3
2 That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the Set-Apart Spokesmen of Yah, and of the commandment of us the Emissaries of Adonay and Saviour:
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of Yah the Heavens were of old, and the Earth standing out of the water and in the water:
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with Yah the Eternally Self-Existing as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 Yah the Eternally Self-Existing is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing will come as a thief in the night; in the which the Heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the Earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
12 Looking for and hasting to the coming of the day of Yah, wherein the Heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
18 But grow in Chen, and in the knowledge of our Adonay and Saviour Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah. To him be Kavod both now and for ever. Aměn.

John }
Chapter 1
3 That which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that you also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare to you, that Yah is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
CHAPTER 2
MY little children, these things write I to you, that you sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah the righteous:
5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the Chesed of Yah perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you have known him that is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of Yah abideth in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.
17 And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of Yah abideth for ever.
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as you have heard that anti the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah shall come, even now are there many anti the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah; whereby we know that it is the last time.
22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Yahooshua is the Anointed One of Yah? He is anti the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, that denies the Father and the Son.
CHAPTER 3
BEHOLD, what manner of Chesed the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of Yah: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of Yah, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yah was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of Yah doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of Yah.
10 In this the children of Yah are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of Yah, neither he that Chesedth not his brother.
16 Hereby perceive we the Chesed of Yah, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 But whoso has this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the Chesed of Yah in him?
20 For if our heart condemn us, Yah is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward Yah.
23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and Chesed one another, as he gave us commandment.
CHAPTER 4
BELOVED, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of Yah: because many false Spokesmen of Yah are gone out into the world.
2 Hereby know you the Spirit of Yah: Every spirit that confesseth that Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah is come in the flesh is of Yah:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah is come in the flesh is not of Yah: and this is that spirit of anti the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, whereof you have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
4 Ye are of Yah, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
6 We are of Yah: he that knows Yah heareth us; he that is not of Yah heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 Beloved, let us Chesed one another: for Chesed is of Yah; and every one that Chesedth is born of Yah, and knows Yah.
8 He that Chesedth not knows not Yah; for Yah is Chesed.
9 In this was manifested the Chesed of Yah toward us, because that Yah sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Herein is Chesed, not that we Cheseded Yah, but that he Cheseded us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if Yah so Cheseded us, we ought also to Chesed one another.
12 No man has seen Yah at any time. If we Chesed one another, Yah dwelleth in us, and his Chesed is perfected in us.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Yahooshua is the Son of Yah, Yah dwelleth in him, and he in Yah.
16 And we have known and believed the Chesed that Yah has to us. Yah is Chesed; and he that dwelleth in Chesed dwelleth in Yah, and Yah in him.
20 If a man say, I Chesed Yah, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that Chesedth not his brother whom he has seen, how can he Chesed Yah whom he has not seen?
21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who Chesedth Yah Chesed his brother also.
CHAPTER 5
WHOSOEVER believeth that Yahooshua is the Anointed One of Yah is born of Yah: and every one that Chesedth him that begat Chesedth him also that is begotten of him.
2 By this we know that we Chesed the children of Yah, when we Chesed Yah, and keep his commandments.
3 For this is the Chesed of Yah, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 For whatsoever is born of Yah overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our Emunah.
5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Yahooshua is the Son of Yah?
6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of Yah is greater: for this is the witness of Yah which he has testified of his Son.
10 He that believeth on the Son of Yah has the witness in himself: he that believeth not Yah has made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that Yah gave of his Son.
11 And this is the record, that Yah has given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 He that has the Son has life; and he that has not the Son of Yah has not life.
13 These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of Yah; that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may believe on the name of the Son of Yah.
18 We know that whosoever is born of Yah sins not; but he that is begotten of Yah keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
19 And we know that we are of Yah, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
20 And we know that the Son of Yah is come, and has given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah. This is the true Yah, and eternal life.

3 Chen be with you, mercy, and peace, from Yah the Father, and from Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, the Son of the Father, in truth and Chesed.
7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an anti the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah.
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the teaching of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, has not Yah. He that abideth in the teaching of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, he has both the Father and the Son.
10 If there come any to you, and bring not this teaching, receive him not into your house, neither bid him Yah speed:
11 For he that biddeth him Yah speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Chapter 1
JUDE, the servant of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and brother of Ya‛aqoḇ, to them that are sanctified by Yah the Father, and preserved in Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and called:
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, unmighty onely men, turning the Chen of our Yah into lasciviousness, and denying the only Adonay Yah, and our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though you once knew this, how that Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, having saved the people out of the land of Mitsrayim, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
9 Yet Michael the archmessenger, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moshe, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing rebuke thee.
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, Yah the Eternally Self-Existing cometh with ten thousands of his Set-Apart Ones,
17 But, beloved, remember you the words which were spoken before of the Emissaries of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah;
21 Keep yourselves in the Chesed of Yah, looking for the mercy of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah to eternal life.
25 To the only wise Yah our Saviour, be Kavod and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Aměn.
- 25: The Revelation of Yahoochanan {
John}
Chapter 1
THE Revelation of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, which Yah gave to him, to shew to his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his messenger to his servant Yahoochanan :
2 Who bare record of the word of Yah, and of the testimony of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, and of all things that he saw.
5 And from Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, who is the emunahful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the Earth. Unto him that Cheseded us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And has made us kings and priests to Yah and his Father; to him be Kavod and dominion for ever and ever. Aměn.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, which is, and which was, and which is to come, Yah.
9 I Yahoochanan, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the Kingdom and patience of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of Yah, and for the testimony of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
10 I was in the Spirit on Yah the Eternally Self-Existing’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
CHAPTER 2
7 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the assemblies; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of Yah.
9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Yahoodi’iy, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
18 And to the messenger of the assembly in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of Yah, who has his eyes like to a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;
20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calls herself a Spokesman of Yahess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
CHAPTER 3
AND to the messenger of the assembly in Sardis write; These things saith he that has the seven Spirits of Yah, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou has a name that thou livest, and art dead.
2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before Yah.
9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Yahoodi’iy, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have Cheseded thee.
14 And to the messenger of the assembly of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Aměn, the emunahful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of Yah;
CHAPTER 4
5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of Yah.
8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Set-Apart, Set-Apart, Set-Apart, Adonay Yah Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
CHAPTER 5
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of Yah sent forth into all the Earth.
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and has redeemed us to Yah by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And has made us to our Yah kings and priests: and we shall reign on the Earth.
CHAPTER 6
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of Yah, and for the testimony which they held:
CHAPTER 7
2 And I saw another messenger ascending from the east, having the seal of the living Yah: and he cried with a loud voice to the four Messengers, to whom it was given to hurt the Earth and the sea,
3 Saying, Hurt not the Earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our Yah in their foreheads.
11 And all the Messengers stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and bowed down Yah,
15 Therefore are they before the throne of Yah, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them to living fountains of waters: and Yah shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
CHAPTER 8
2 And I saw the seven Messengers which stood before Yah; and to them were given seven trumpets.
4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the Set-Apart Ones, ascended up before Yah out of the messenger’s hand.
CHAPTER 9
4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the Earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of Yah in their foreheads.
13 And the sixth messenger sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before Yah,
CHAPTER 10
7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh messenger, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of Yah should be finished, as he has declared to his servants the Spokesmen of Yah.
CHAPTER 11
AND there was given me a reed like to a rod: and the messenger stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of Yah, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the Yah of the Earth.
10 And they that dwell upon the Earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two Spokesmen of Yah tormented them that dwelt on the Earth.
11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from Yah entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before Yah on their seats, fell upon their faces, and bowed down Yah,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Adonay Yah Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou has taken to thee thy great power, and has reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward to thy servants the Spokesmen of Yah, and to the Set-Apart Ones, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the Earth.
19 And the temple of Yah was opened in Heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an Earthquake, and great hail.
CHAPTER 12
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up to Yah, and to his throne.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared of Yah, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in Heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the Kingdom of our Mighty One, and the power of his Anointed One: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our Yah day and night.
17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of Yah, and have the testimony of Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah.
CHAPTER 13
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against Yah, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in Heaven.
CHAPTER 14
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are bethulahs. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goes. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits to Yah and to the Lamb.
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of Yah.
7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear Yah, and give Kavod to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made Heaven, and Earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of Yah, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the Set-Apart Messengers, and in the presence of the Lamb:
12 Here is the patience of the Set-Apart Ones: here are they that keep the commandments of Yah, and the Emunah of Yahooshua.
13 And I heard a voice from Heaven saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in Yah the Eternally Self-Existing from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
19 And the messenger thrust in his sickle into the Earth, and gathered the vine of the Earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of Yah.
CHAPTER 15
AND I saw another sign in Heaven, great and marvellous, seven Messengers having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of Yah.
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of Yah.
3 And they sing the song of Moshe the servant of Yah, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Adonay Mighty One Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of Set-Apart Ones.
7 And one of the four beasts gave to the seven Messengers seven golden vials full of the wrath of Yah, who lives for ever and ever.
8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the Kavod of Yah, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven Messengers were fulfilled.
CHAPTER 16
AND I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven Messengers, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of Yah upon the Earth.
6 For they have shed the blood of Set-Apart Ones and Spokesmen of Yah, and thou has given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Adonay Yah Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of Yah, which has power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him Kavod.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false Spokesman of Yah.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth to the kings of the Earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of Yah Almighty.
19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babel came in remembrance before Yah, to give to her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of Heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed Yah because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
CHAPTER 17
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the Set-Apart Ones, and with the blood of the martyrs of Yahooshua: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
17 For Yah has put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their Kingdom to the beast, until the words of Yah shall be fulfilled.
CHAPTER 18
5 For her sins have reached to Heaven, and Yah has remembered her iniquities.
8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Mighty One who judges her.
20 Rejoice over her, thou Heaven, and you Set-Apart Emissaries and Spokesmen of Yah; for Yah has avenged you on her.
24 And in her was found the blood of Spokesmen of Yah, and of Set-Apart Ones, and of all that were slain upon the Earth.
CHAPTER 19
AND after these things I heard a great voice of much people in Heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and Kavod, and honour, and power, to Yah the Eternally Self-Existing our Mighty One:
4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and bowed down Yah that sat on the throne, saying, Aměn; Alleluia.
6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Yah omnipotent reigneth.
9 And he saith to me, Write, Blessed are they which are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith to me, These are the true sayings of Yah.
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said to me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Yahooshua: worship Yah: for the testimony of Yahooshua is the spirit of prophecy.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of Yah.
15 And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty Yah.
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false Spokesman of Yah that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that bowed down his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
CHAPTER 20
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given to them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Yahooshua, and for the word of Yah, and which had not bowed down the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah a thousand years.
6 Blessed and Set-Apart is he that has part in the first resurrection: on such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of Yah and of the Anointing of the Spirit of Yah, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the Earth, and compassed the camp of the Set-Apart Ones about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from Yah out of Heaven, and devoured them.
10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false Spokesman of Yah are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before Yah; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
CHAPTER 21
2 And I Yahoochanan saw the Set-Apart city, new Yerushalayim, coming down from Yah out of Heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of Heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of Yah is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and Yah himself shall be with them, and be their Mighty One.
4 And Yah shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the Set-Apart Yerushalayim, descending out of Heaven from Yah,
11 Having the Kavod of Yah: and her light was like to a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
22 And I saw no temple therein: for Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Yah Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the Kavod of Yah did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
CHAPTER 22
AND he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of Yah and of the Lamb.
3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of Yah and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Mighty One gives them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
6 And he said to me, These sayings are faithful and true: and Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Yah of the Set-Apart Spokesmen of Yah sent his messenger to shew to his servants the things which must shortly be done.
8 And I Yahoochanan saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the messenger which shewed me these things.
9 Then saith he to me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the Spokesmen of Yah, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship Yah.
16 I Yahooshua have sent mine messenger to testify to you these things in the assemblies. I am the root and the offspring of Dawid, and the bright and morning star.
18 For I testify to every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add to these things, Yah shall add to him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, Yah shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the Set-Apart city, and from the things which are written in this book.
20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Aměn. Even so, come, Adonay Yahooshua.
21 The Chen of our Adonay Yahooshua the Anointed One of Yah be with you all. Aměn.
