1Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not apparent. 2For this reason, the ancients were given testimony. 3By faith, we understand the world to be fashioned by the Word of God, so that the visible might be made by the invisible. 4By faith, Abel offered to God a much better sacrifice than that of Cain, through which he obtained testimony that he was just, in that God offered testimony to his gifts. And through that sacrifice, he still speaks to us, though he is dead. 5By faith, Enoch was transferred, so that he would not see death, and he was not found because God had transferred him. For before he was transferred, he had testimony that he pleased God. 6But without faith, it is impossible to please God. For whoever approaches God must believe that he exists, and that he rewards those who seek him.

3Be merciful to me, O God, according to your great mercy. And, according to the plentitude of your compassion, wipe out my iniquity. 4Wash me once again from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 5For I know my iniquity, and my sin is ever before me. 6Against you only have I sinned, and I have done evil before your eyes. And so, you are justified in your words, and you will prevail when you give judgment. 7For behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sinfulness did my mother conceive me. 8For behold, you have loved truth. The obscure and hidden things of your wisdom, you have manifested to me.

1And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying: 2“This is the ritual that the Lord has appointed for a victim. Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may bring to you a red cow of full maturity, in which there is no blemish, and which has not carried a yoke. 3And you shall deliver it to Eleazar the priest, who, having led it out beyond the camp, shall immolate it in the sight of all. 4And dipping his finger in its blood, he shall sprinkle it seven times, opposite the door of the tabernacle. 5And he shall burn it, while all are watching, delivering into the flame, not only its skin and flesh, but also the blood and dung. 6Likewise, cedar wood, and hyssop, and twice-dyed scarlet he shall cast into the flame, by which the cow is consumed.
