And the LORD called unto Moses,

And spake unto him

Out of the tabernacle

Of the congregation, saying,

Speak unto the children of Israel,

And say unto them,

If any man of you

Bring an offering

Unto the LORD,

Ye shall bring your offering

Of the cattle,

Even of the herd,

And of the flock.

If his offering be a burnt sacrifice

Of the herd,

Let him offer a male

Without blemish:

He shall offer it

OF HIS OWN VOLUNTARY WILL

At the door of the tabernacle

Of the congregation

Before the LORD.

And thou shalt remember

All the way

Which the LORD

Thy God

Led thee

These forty years

In the wilderness,

To humble thee,

And to prove thee,

To know

What was in thine heart,

Whether thou wouldest keep

His commandments,

Or no.

If my people,

Which are called by my name,

Shall humble themselves,

And pray,

And seek my face,

And turn from their wicked ways;

Then will I hear from heaven,

And will forgive their sin,

And will heal their land.

Humble yourselves

In the sight of the Lord,

And he shall lift you up.
