Yubalym (Jubilee) — 6

1 And on the New Moon of the third month Nuah went forth from the ark, and built an altar on that mountain.

2 And he made atonement for the Arath and took a kid and made atonement by its blood for all the guilt of the Arath; for everything that had been on it had been destroyed, save those that were in the ark with Nuah.

3 And he placed the fat thereof on the altar, and he took an ox, and a goat, and a sheep and kids, and salt, and a turtledove, and the young of a dove, and placed an ascending smoke sacrifice on the altar, and poured thereon an offering mingled with oil, and sprinkled wine and strewed frankincense over everything, and caused a goodly savor to arise, acceptable before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.

4 And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH smelled the goodly savor, and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH made a covenant with Nuah that there will not be anymore flood to destroy the Arath; that all the days of the Arath seed time and harvest should never cease; cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night should not change their order, nor cease forever.

5 And you, increase ye and multiply upon the Arath, and become many upon it, and be a Barakah upon it. The fear of you and the dread of you I will inspire in everything that is on Arath and in the sea.

6 And behold I have given unto you all beasts, and all winged things, and everything that moves on the Arath, and the fish in the waters, and all things for food; as the green herbs, I have given you all things to eat.

7 But flesh, with the life thereof, with the blood, ye shall not eat; for the life of all flesh is in the blood, lest your blood of your lives be required. At the hand of every man, at the hand of every beast will I require the blood of man.

8 Whoso sheds man's blood by man shall his blood be shed, for in the image of 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH He made man.

9 And you will increase, and multiply on the Arath.

10 And Nuah and his sons swore that they would not eat any blood that was in any flesh, and he cut a covenant before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH forever throughout all the generations of the Arath in this month.

11 On this account 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH spoke to you that you should cut a covenant with the children of Yashar'AL in this month upon the mountain with an oath, and that you should sprinkle blood upon them because of all the words of the covenant, which 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH made with them forever.

12 And this testimony is written concerning you that you should observe it continually, so that you should not eat the blood of beasts or birds or cattle during all the days of the Arath, and the man who eats the blood of beast or of cattle or of birds during all the days of the Arath, he and his seed shall be rooted out of the land.

13 And you should command the children of Yashar'AL to eat no blood, so that their names and their seed may be before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH our ALUAH continually.

14 And for this Turah there is no limit of days, for it is forever. They shall observe it throughout their generations, so that they may continue supplicating on your behalf with blood before the altar; every day and at the time of morning and evening they shall seek forgiveness on your behalf perpetually before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH that they may guard it and not be rooted out.

15 And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH gave to Nuah and his sons a sign that there should not again be a flood on the Arath.

16 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH set his bow in the cloud for a sign of the eternal covenant that there should not again be a flood on the Arath to destroy it all the days of the Arath.

17 For this reason it is ordained and written on the Shamaym tablets, that they should celebrate the Feast of Shabu'uth in this month once a year, to renew the covenant every year.

18 And this whole feast was celebrated in Shamaym from the day of creation till the days of Nuah twenty-six Yubalym and five weeks of years: and Nuah and his sons observed it for seven Yubalym and one week of years, till the day of Nuah's death, and from the day of Nuah's death his sons did away with it until the days of Abraham, and they ate blood.

19 But Abraham observed it, and Yachaq and Ya'aqub and his children observed it up to you Musha, and in your days the children of Yashar'AL forgot it until you celebrated it anew on this mountain.

20 And you should command the children of Yashar'AL to observe this feast in all their generations for a commandment unto them: one day in the year in this month they shall celebrate the feast.

21 For it is the Feast of Shabu'uth and the Feast of First fruits of the wheat harvest: this feast is twofold and of a double nature: according to what is written and engraved concerning it, celebrate it.

22 For I have written in the book of the first Turah, in that which I have written for you Musha, that you should celebrate it in its season, one day in the year, and I explained to you its sacrifices that the children of Yashar'AL should remember and should celebrate it throughout their generations in this month, one day in every year.

23 And on the New Moon of the first month, and on the New Moon of the fourth month, and on the New Moon of the seventh month, and on the New Moon of the tenth month are the days of remembrance, and the days of the seasons in the four divisions of the year. These are written and ordained as a testimony forever.

24 And Nuah ordained them for himself as feasts for the generations forever,

25 so that they have become thereby a memorial unto him. And on the New Moon of the first month he was bidden to make for himself an ark, and on that day the Arath became dry, and he opened the ark and saw the Arath.

26 And on the New Moon of the fourth month the mouths of the depths of the abyss beneath were closed. And on the New Moon of the seventh month all the mouths of the abysses of the Arath were opened, and the waters began to descend into them.

27 And on the New Moon of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen, and Nuah was glad.

28 And on this account, he ordained them for himself as feasts for a memorial forever, and thus are they ordained.

29 And they placed them on the Shamaym tablets, each had thirteen weeks; from one to another passed their memorial, from the first to the second, and from the second to the third, and from the third to the fourth.

30 And all the days of the commandment will be two and fifty weeks of days, and these will make the entire year complete. Thus it is engraved and ordained on the Shamaym tablets.

31 And there is no neglecting this commandment for a single year or from year to year.

32 And command you (Musha) the children of Yashar'AL that they observe the years according to this reckoning three hundred and sixty-four days, and these will constitute a complete year, and they will not disturb its time from its days and from its feasts; for everything will fall out in them according to their testimony, and they will not leave out any day nor disturb any feasts.

33 But if they do neglect and do not observe them according to his commandment, then they will disturb all their seasons and the years will be dislodged from this order, and they will disturb the seasons and the years will be dislodged and they will neglect their ordinances.

34 And all the children of Yashar'AL will forget and will not find the path of the years, and will forget the New Moons, and seasons, and Shabbats and they will go wrong as to all the order of the years.

35 For I know and from henceforth will I declare it unto you, and it is not of my own devising; for the book lies written before me, and on the Shamaym tablets the division of days is ordained, lest they forget the feasts of the covenant and walk according to the feasts of the other nations after their error and after their ignorance.

36 For there will be those who will assuredly make observations of the moon how it disturbs the seasons and comes in from year to year ten days too soon.

37 For this reason the years will come upon them, when they will disturb the order, and make an abominable day the day of testimony, and an unclean day a feast day, and they will confound all the days, the Qadash with the unclean, and the unclean day with the Qadash for they will go wrong as to the months and Shabbats and feasts and Yubalym,

38 For this reason I command and testify to you that you may testify to them; for after your death your children will disturb them, so that they will not make the year three hundred and sixty-four days only, and for this reason they will go wrong as to the New Moons and seasons and Shabbats and feasts, and they will eat all kinds of blood with all kinds of flesh
