Psalm 85

¹Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
²Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.
³Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.
⁴Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.
⁵Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?
⁶Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?
⁷Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.
⁸I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
⁹Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
¹⁰Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
¹¹Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
¹²Yea, the Lord shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.
¹³Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.

25And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
²Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
³And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
⁴And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,
⁵And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and shittim wood,
⁶Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,
⁷Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.
⁸And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
⁹According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.
¹⁰And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
¹¹And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.
¹⁷And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
¹⁸And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
¹⁹And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
²⁰And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
²¹And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
²²And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.

¹⁵And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
¹⁶For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
¹⁷For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
¹⁸Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
¹⁹For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
²⁰Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
²¹Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
²²And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
²³It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
²⁴For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
²⁵Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
²⁶For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
²⁷And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
²⁸So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
