Exodus 37:1–38:31
1And they made ten curtains for the tabernacle; 2of eight and twenty cubits the length of one curtain: the same [measure] was to all, and the breadth of one curtain was of four cubits. 3And they made the veil of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, the woven work with cherubs. 4And they put it on four posts of incorruptible [wood] overlaid with gold; and their chapiters were gold, and their four sockets were silver. 5And they made the veil of the door of the tabernacle of witness of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, woven work with cherubs, 6and their posts five, and the rings; and they gilded their chapiters and their clasps with gold, and they had five sockets of brass. 7And they made the court toward the south; the curtains of the court of fine linen twined, a hundred [cubits] every way, 8and their posts twenty, and their sockets twenty; 9and on the north side a hundred every way, and on the south side a hundred every way, and their posts twenty and their sockets twenty. 10And on the west side curtains of fifty cubits, their posts ten and their sockets ten. 11And on the east side curtains of fifty cubits of fifteen cubits behind, 12and their pillars three, and their sockets three. 13And at the second back on this side and on that by the gate of the court, curtains of fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three; 14all the curtains of the tabernacle of fine linen twined. 15And the sockets of their pillars of brass, and their hooks of silver, and their chapiters overlaid with silver, and all the posts of the court overlaid with silver: 16and the veil of the gate of the court, the work of an embroiderer of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined; the length of twenty cubits, and the height and the breadth of five cubits, made equal to the curtains of the court; 17and their pillars four, and their sockets four of brass, and their hooks of silver, and their chapiters overlaid with silver. 18And all the pins of the court round about of brass, and they [were] overlaid with silver. 19And this was the construction of the tabernacle of witness, accordingly as it was appointed to Moses; so that the public service should belong to the Levites, through Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 20And Beseleel the son of Urias of the tribe of Juda, did as the Lord commanded Moses. 21And Eliab the son of Achisamach of the tribe of Dan [was there], who was chief artificer in the woven works and needle-works and embroideries, in weaving with the scarlet and fine linen. Chapter 381And Beseleel made the ark, 2and overlaid it with pure gold within and without; 3and he cast for it four golden rings, two on the one side, and two on the other, 4wide [enough] for the staves, so that men should bear the ark with them. 5And he made the propitiatory over the ark of pure gold, 6and the two cherubs of gold; 7one cherub on the one end of the propitiatory, and another cherub on the other end of the propitiatory, 8overshadowing the propitiatory with their wings. 9And he made the set table of pure gold, 10and cast for it four rings: two on the one side and two on the other side, broad, so that [men] should lift it with the staves in them. 11And he made the staves of the ark and of the table, and gilded them with gold. 12And he made the furniture of the table, both the dishes, and the censers, and the cups, and the bowls with which he should offer drink-offerings, of gold. 13And he made the candlestick which gives light, of gold; 14the stem solid, and the branches from both its sides; 15and blossoms proceeding from its branches, three on this side, and three on the other, made equal to each other. 16And [as to] their lamps, which are on the ends, knops [proceeded] from them; and sockets proceeding from them, that the lamps might be upon them; and the seventh socket, on the top of the candlestick, on the summit above, entirely of solid gold. 17And on the candlestick seven golden lamps, and its snuffers gold, and its funnels gold. 18He overlaid the posts [with silver], and cast for each post golden rings, and gilded the bars with gold; and he gilded the posts of the veil with gold, and made the hooks of gold. 19He made also the rings of the tabernacle of gold; and the rings of the court, and the rings for drawing out the veil above of brass. 20He cast the silver chapiters of the tabernacle, and the brazen chapiters of the door of the tabernacle, and the gate of the court; and he made silver hooks for the posts, he overlaid them with silver on the posts. 21He made the pins of the tabernacle and the pins of the court of brass. 22He made the brazen altar of the brazen censers, which belonged to the men engaged in sedition with the gathering of Core. 23He made all the vessels of the altar and its grate, and its base, and its bowls, and the brazen flesh-hooks. 24He made an appendage for the altar of network under the grate, beneath it as far as the middle of it; and he fastened to it four brazen rings on the four parts of the appendage of the altar, wide [enough] for the bars, so as to bear the altar with them. 25He made the holy anointing oil and the composition of the incense, the pure work of the perfumer. 26He made the brazen laver, and the brazen base of it of the mirrors of the women that fasted, who fasted by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, in the day in which he set it up. 27And he made the laver, that at it Moses and Aaron and his sons might wash their hands and their feet: when they went into the tabernacle of witness, or whensoever they should advance to the altar to do service, they washed at it, as the Lord commanded Moses.

Psalm 21:9–15(MT: 22)
MT Psalm 22 = LXX Psalm 21 (standard offset).
9He hoped in the Lord: let him deliver him, let him save him, because he takes pleasure in him. 10For thou art he that drew me out of the womb; my hope from my mother's breasts. 11I was cast on thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly. 12Stand not aloof from me; for affliction is near; for there is no helper. 13Many bullocks have compassed me: fat bulls have beset me round. 14They have opened their mouth against me, as a ravening and roaring lion. 15I am poured out like water, and all my bones are loosened: my heart in the midst of my belly is become like melting wax.
ProverbSeptuagint (Brenton)
Proverbs 8:12–21
12I wisdom have dwelt [with] counsel and knowledge, and I have called upon understanding. 13The fear of the Lord hates unrighteousness, and insolence, and pride, and the ways of wicked men; and I hate the perverse ways of bad men. 14Counsel and safety are mine: prudence is mine, and strength is mine. 15By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. 16By me nobles become great, and monarchs by me rule over the earth. 17I love those that love me; and they that seek me shall find [me]. 18Wealth and glory belong to me; yea, abundant possessions and righteousness. 19[It is] better to have my fruit than [to have] gold and precious stones; and my produce is better than choice silver. 20I walk in ways of righteousness, and [am] conversant with the paths of judgment; 21that I may divide substance to them that love me, and may fill their treasures with good things. If I declare to you the things that daily happen, I will remember [also] to recount the things of old.
New TestamentKing James Version
Matthew 26:51–75
51And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest’s, and smote off his ear. 52Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. 53Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? 54But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? 55In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me. 56But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled. 57And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. 58But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest’s palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end. 59Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; 60But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, 61And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. 62And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? 63But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. 64Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. 65Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy. 66What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death. 67Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands, 68Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee? 69Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. 70But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. 71And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. 72And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man. 73And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee. 74Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew. 75And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
