We offer a freely copyable translation of the Old Testament / Tanakh based on the Masoretic Text. The translation follows the Masoretic Text, ketiv or qeré (which will be indicated), and vowels (but we retain freedom regarding word grouping), except that the changes made by the Sopherim are reversed (see Companion Bible Appendices 32 and 33). Textual and explanatory remarks may be made in the notes. Our translation may be freely copied (see copyright notices below).
There are three areas of copyright to consider: the copyright of sources used, the copyright of fonts used, and the copyright of our own work.
The Hebrew / Aramaic text as starting material is the Westminster Leningrad Codex [4.18], obtained from www.tanach.us/TextFiles.
The license, as of 1 June 2011, at www.tanach.us/License.html reads: “All files in the main directory, except Tanach.zip, and all files in the following subdirectories may be used without restriction.” We have used the text files from www.tanach.us/TextFiles/, one of the subdirectories referred to as able to be used without restriction.
We remark that, according to tanach.us/Tanach.xml#Home, the files are derived “from the electronic version of the Leningrad Codex maintained by the J. Alan Groves Center for Advanced Biblical Research” who have written to us that they “make no claim on the use of the WLC”.
We nevertheless suggest that commercial publishers wishing to publish our combined Hebrew and English documents should verify the copyright position of the Hebrew text for themselves.
The Hebrew text renders most accurately in SBL Hebrew, which is free for personal use. Commercial publishers must consult the copyright holder. The text renders reasonably in Times New Roman. In any case, commercial publishers must check and comply with font copyright issues.

| Ex 1:9 | וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אֶל־עַמּ֑וֹ הִנֵּ֗ה עַ֚ם בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל רַ֥ב וְעָצ֖וּם מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃ | and he said to his people, “Look, the people of the sons of Israel is more numerous and stronger than we are. | |

them ← it, referring to the people, as a whole.
for their part ← he also. reinforcement ← supplement. go up: i.e. go to war. Compare Judg 20:18, 2 Sam 23:9, Isa 21:2. |

them ... them ... they ← it ... it ... it, referring to the people, as a whole.

| Ex 1:16 | וַיֹּ֗אמֶר בְּיַלֶּדְכֶן֙ אֶת־הָֽעִבְרִיּ֔וֹת וּרְאִיתֶ֖ן עַל־הָאָבְנָ֑יִם אִם־בֵּ֥ן הוּא֙ וַהֲמִתֶּ֣ן אֹת֔וֹ וְאִם־בַּ֥ת הִ֖יא וָחָֽיָה׃ | and he said, “When you deliver the Hebrew women, you will see the sex by the presence or absence of the testicles. If it is a son, you will kill him, but if it is a daughter, she will live.” | testicles ← stones. AV differs (stools). The consonants of the word are as for stones, and the vocalization is dual, but the vocalized word is from אֹבֶן, oben, not אֶבֶן, eben, which [BDB] give as probably ↴ |
| Ex 1:17 | וַתִּירֶ֤אןָ הַֽמְיַלְּדֹת֙ אֶת־הָ֣אֱלֹהִ֔ים וְלֹ֣א עָשׂ֔וּ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר דִּבֶּ֥ר אֲלֵיהֶ֖ן מֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרָ֑יִם וַתְּחַיֶּ֖יןָ אֶת־הַיְלָדִֽים׃ | But the midwives feared God, and they did not do what the king of Egypt said to them, and they let the children live. | ↳ referring to the midwife's stool. In Lev 21:20 אֶשֶׁךְ, eshek, is used for testicle, where AV= stones. |
| Ex 1:18 | וַיִּקְרָ֤א מֶֽלֶךְ־מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ לַֽמְיַלְּדֹ֔ת וַיֹּ֣אמֶר לָהֶ֔ן מַדּ֥וּעַ עֲשִׂיתֶ֖ן הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֑ה וַתְּחַיֶּ֖יןָ אֶת־הַיְלָדִֽים׃ | Then the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, “Why have you done this thing and let the children live?” | |
| Ex 1:19 | וַתֹּאמַ֤רְןָ הַֽמְיַלְּדֹת֙ אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֔ה כִּ֣י לֹ֧א כַנָּשִׁ֛ים הַמִּצְרִיֹּ֖ת הָֽעִבְרִיֹּ֑ת כִּֽי־חָי֣וֹת הֵ֔נָּה בְּטֶ֨רֶם תָּב֧וֹא אֲלֵהֶ֛ן הַמְיַלֶּ֖דֶת וְיָלָֽדוּ׃ | And the midwives said to Pharaoh, “It is because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are lively, and before the midwife comes to them, they have given birth.” | |
| Ex 1:20 | וַיֵּ֥יטֶב אֱלֹהִ֖ים לַֽמְיַלְּדֹ֑ת וַיִּ֧רֶב הָעָ֛ם וַיַּֽעַצְמ֖וּ מְאֹֽד׃ | And God treated the midwives well, and the people increased and became very strong. | |
| Ex 1:21 | וַיְהִ֕י כִּֽי־יָֽרְא֥וּ הַֽמְיַלְּדֹ֖ת אֶת־הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיַּ֥עַשׂ לָהֶ֖ם בָּתִּֽים׃ | Then it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he built up the people into family house lines. | he built up the people into family house lines ← he made for them houses. |
| Ex 1:22 | וַיְצַ֣ו פַּרְעֹ֔ה לְכָל־עַמּ֖וֹ לֵאמֹ֑ר כָּל־הַבֵּ֣ן הַיִּלּ֗וֹד הַיְאֹ֙רָה֙ תַּשְׁלִיכֻ֔הוּ וְכָל־הַבַּ֖ת תְּחַיּֽוּן׃ ס | Then Pharaoh commanded all his people and said, “As for every son born, cast him into the river, but let every daughter live.” | |
| Ex 2:1 | וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ אִ֖ישׁ מִבֵּ֣ית לֵוִ֑י וַיִּקַּ֖ח אֶת־בַּת־לֵוִֽי׃ | Now a man from the house of Levi went out and took Levi's daughter as a wife, | Levi's daughter: standing for a female descendant of Levi. |
| Ex 2:2 | וַתַּ֥הַר הָאִשָּׁ֖ה וַתֵּ֣לֶד בֵּ֑ן וַתֵּ֤רֶא אֹתוֹ֙ כִּי־ט֣וֹב ה֔וּא וַֽתִּצְפְּנֵ֖הוּ שְׁלֹשָׁ֥ה יְרָחִֽים׃ | and the woman conceived and bore a son, and she saw that he was fair, and she hid him for three months. | saw that he was fair ← saw him that he (was) fair. |
| Ex 2:3 | וְלֹא־יָכְלָ֣ה עוֹד֮ הַצְּפִינוֹ֒ וַתִּֽקַּֽח־לוֹ֙ תֵּ֣בַת גֹּ֔מֶא וַתַּחְמְרָ֥ה בַחֵמָ֖ר וּבַזָּ֑פֶת וַתָּ֤שֶׂם בָּהּ֙ אֶת־הַיֶּ֔לֶד וַתָּ֥שֶׂם בַּסּ֖וּף עַל־שְׂפַ֥ת הַיְאֹֽר׃ | But when she could no longer keep him hidden, she took a reed ark for him and impregnated it with bitumen and pitch, and she put the child in it, and she put it in the bulrushes by the bank of the river, | impregnated it: we, with [AnLx], take final hé of the word as paragogic, not as a pronominal suffix (because it lacks a mappiq), which the AV does. So AV differs slightly. |
| Ex 2:4 | וַתֵּתַצַּ֥ב אֲחֹת֖וֹ מֵרָחֹ֑ק לְדֵעָ֕ה מַה־יֵּעָשֶׂ֖ה לֽוֹ׃ | while his sister stood at a distance to see what would be done to him. | see ← know. |
| Ex 2:5 | וַתֵּ֤רֶד בַּת־פַּרְעֹה֙ לִרְחֹ֣ץ עַל־הַיְאֹ֔ר וְנַעֲרֹתֶ֥יהָ הֹלְכֹ֖ת עַל־יַ֣ד הַיְאֹ֑ר וַתֵּ֤רֶא אֶת־הַתֵּבָה֙ בְּת֣וֹךְ הַסּ֔וּף וַתִּשְׁלַ֥ח אֶת־אֲמָתָ֖הּ וַתִּקָּחֶֽהָ | Then Pharaoh's daughter came down to wash at the riverside, and her maidservants went to the riverside, and she saw the ark in among the bulrushes, and she sent a maidservant of hers to get it. | |
| Ex 2:6 | וַתִּפְתַּח֙ וַתִּרְאֵ֣הוּ אֶת־הַיֶּ֔לֶד וְהִנֵּה־נַ֖עַר בֹּכֶ֑ה וַתַּחְמֹ֣ל עָלָ֔יו וַתֹּ֕אמֶר מִיַּלְדֵ֥י הָֽעִבְרִ֖ים זֶֽה׃ | And she opened it and saw the child, and what she saw was a boy crying, and she had compassion on him, and she said, “This is one of the Hebrews' children.” | what she saw was ← behold. |
| Ex 2:7 | וַתֹּ֣אמֶר אֲחֹתוֹ֮ אֶל־בַּת־פַּרְעֹה֒ הַאֵלֵ֗ךְ וְקָרָ֤אתִי לָךְ֙ אִשָּׁ֣ה מֵינֶ֔קֶת מִ֖ן הָעִבְרִיֹּ֑ת וְתֵינִ֥ק לָ֖ךְ אֶת־הַיָּֽלֶד׃ | Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, “Shall I go and call for a nurse for you from the Hebrew women to suckle the child for you?” | |
| Ex 2:8 | וַתֹּֽאמֶר־לָ֥הּ בַּת־פַּרְעֹ֖ה לֵ֑כִי וַתֵּ֙לֶךְ֙ הָֽעַלְמָ֔ה וַתִּקְרָ֖א אֶת־אֵ֥ם הַיָּֽלֶד׃ | And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, “Yes, go.” So the maiden went and called for the child's mother. | |
| Ex 2:9 | וַתֹּ֧אמֶר לָ֣הּ בַּת־פַּרְעֹ֗ה הֵילִ֜יכִי אֶת־הַיֶּ֤לֶד הַזֶּה֙ וְהֵינִקִ֣הוּ לִ֔י וַאֲנִ֖י אֶתֵּ֣ן אֶת־שְׂכָרֵ֑ךְ וַתִּקַּ֧ח הָאִשָּׁ֛ה הַיֶּ֖לֶד וַתְּנִיקֵֽהוּ׃ | And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, “Take this child away and suckle him for me, and I will give you your recompense.” So the woman took the child and suckled him. | |
| Ex 2:10 | וַיִגְדַּ֣ל הַיֶּ֗לֶד וַתְּבִאֵ֙הוּ֙ לְבַת־פַּרְעֹ֔ה וַֽיְהִי־לָ֖הּ לְבֵ֑ן וַתִּקְרָ֤א שְׁמוֹ֙ מֹשֶׁ֔ה וַתֹּ֕אמֶר כִּ֥י מִן־הַמַּ֖יִם מְשִׁיתִֽהוּ׃ | And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he was a son to her, and she called him Moses and said, “For I drew him out of the water.” | Moses ← Mosheh (drawing out), but we retain the AV name. |
| Ex 2:11 | וַיְהִ֣י ׀ בַּיָּמִ֣ים הָהֵ֗ם וַיִּגְדַּ֤ל מֹשֶׁה֙ וַיֵּצֵ֣א אֶל־אֶחָ֔יו וַיַּ֖רְא בְּסִבְלֹתָ֑ם וַיַּרְא֙ אִ֣ישׁ מִצְרִ֔י מַכֶּ֥ה אִישׁ־עִבְרִ֖י מֵאֶחָֽיו׃ | And it came to pass in those days that Moses grew up and went out to his brothers, and he saw their burdens, and he saw an Egyptian man striking a Hebrew man – one of his brothers. | |
| Ex 2:12 | וַיִּ֤פֶן כֹּה֙ וָכֹ֔ה וַיַּ֖רְא כִּ֣י אֵ֣ין אִ֑ישׁ וַיַּךְ֙ אֶת־הַמִּצְרִ֔י וַֽיִּטְמְנֵ֖הוּ בַּחֽוֹל׃ | Then he looked to one side and to the other side, and when he saw that there was no man there, he struck the Egyptian and buried him in the sand. |
to one side and to the other side ← thus and thus.
buried ← hid, but especially in the earth. |
| Ex 2:13 | וַיֵּצֵא֙ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַשֵּׁנִ֔י וְהִנֵּ֛ה שְׁנֵֽי־אֲנָשִׁ֥ים עִבְרִ֖ים נִצִּ֑ים וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ לָֽרָשָׁ֔ע לָ֥מָּה תַכֶּ֖ה רֵעֶֽךָ׃ | Then he went out on the second day, and there were two Hebrew men quarrelling, and he said to the one in the wrong, “Why are you striking your colleague?” | there were ← behold. |
| Ex 2:14 | וַ֠יֹּאמֶר מִ֣י שָֽׂמְךָ֞ לְאִ֨ישׁ שַׂ֤ר וְשֹׁפֵט֙ עָלֵ֔ינוּ הַלְהָרְגֵ֙נִי֙ אַתָּ֣ה אֹמֵ֔ר כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר הָרַ֖גְתָּ אֶת־הַמִּצְרִ֑י וַיִּירָ֤א מֹשֶׁה֙ וַיֹּאמַ֔ר אָכֵ֖ן נוֹדַ֥ע הַדָּבָֽר׃ | To which he said, “Who appointed you a commander and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?” At this Moses was afraid, and he said to himself, “Obviously, the incident has become well-known.” |

| Ex 2:16 | וּלְכֹהֵ֥ן מִדְיָ֖ן שֶׁ֣בַע בָּנ֑וֹת וַתָּבֹ֣אנָה וַתִּדְלֶ֗נָה וַתְּמַלֶּ֙אנָה֙ אֶת־הָ֣רְהָטִ֔ים לְהַשְׁק֖וֹת צֹ֥אן אֲבִיהֶֽן׃ | Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to give their father's flocks drink. | |
| Ex 2:17 | וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ הָרֹעִ֖ים וַיְגָרְשׁ֑וּם וַיָּ֤קָם מֹשֶׁה֙ וַיּ֣וֹשִׁעָ֔ן וַיַּ֖שְׁקְ אֶת־צֹאנָֽם׃ | Then the shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses arose and saved them, and he gave their flocks drink. | |

| Ex 5:22 | וַיָּ֧שָׁב מֹשֶׁ֛ה אֶל־יְהוָ֖ה וַיֹּאמַ֑ר אֲדֹנָ֗י לָמָ֤ה הֲרֵעֹ֙תָה֙ לָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֔ה לָ֥מָּה זֶּ֖ה שְׁלַחְתָּֽנִי׃ | Then Moses returned to the Lord and said, “O Lord*, why have you brought harm on this people? Why have you sent me like this? | Lord*: a change by the Sopherim from יהוה, Yhvh, to אֲדֹנָי, Adonai. See Gen 18:3 and [CB] App. 32. |

as ← in.
the Lord ← Yhvh, with vowels probably Yahveh, but always rendered the Lord in the New Testament where it quotes the OT. AV differs here and in Ps 83:19 (Ps 83:18AV), Isa 12:2 and Isa 26:4 (JEHOVAH) with ↴ |
| Ex 6:4 | וְגַ֨ם הֲקִמֹ֤תִי אֶת־בְּרִיתִי֙ אִתָּ֔ם לָתֵ֥ת לָהֶ֖ם אֶת־אֶ֣רֶץ כְּנָ֑עַן אֵ֛ת אֶ֥רֶץ מְגֻרֵיהֶ֖ם אֲשֶׁר־גָּ֥רוּ בָֽהּ׃ | And I will also set up my covenant with them, by giving them the land of Canaan – the land of their domicile where they were resident. |
↳ the vowels, adapted, of Adonai, on the consonants Yhvh, because the Masoretes required, as a qeré, the pronunciation Adonai. Our small capital typography indicates the original Hebrew.
by giving: gerundial use of the infinitive. |
| Ex 6:5 | וְגַ֣ם ׀ אֲנִ֣י שָׁמַ֗עְתִּי אֶֽת־נַאֲקַת֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר מִצְרַ֖יִם מַעֲבִדִ֣ים אֹתָ֑ם וָאֶזְכֹּ֖ר אֶת־בְּרִיתִֽי׃ | And I have also heard the groaning of the sons of Israel whom the Egyptians are forcing to work, and I have remembered my covenant. | Egyptians ← Egypt, but see Gen 43:32. |

See also Ex 4:10. |
| Ex 6:13 | וַיְדַבֵּ֣ר יְהוָה֮ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֣ה וְאֶֽל־אַהֲרֹן֒ וַיְצַוֵּם֙ אֶל־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וְאֶל־פַּרְעֹ֖ה מֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרָ֑יִם לְהוֹצִ֥יא אֶת־בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ ס | Then the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, and he gave them instructions regarding the sons of Israel and Pharaoh the king of Egypt, so as to bring the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt. | |

|| 1 Chr 5:28, 1 Chr 6:3 (1 Chr 6:2AV, 1 Chr 6:18AV).
Kohath (2x): see Gen 46:11. |

|| 1 Chr 6:4 (1 Chr 6:19AV).
Mahli: AV= Mahali here, but Mahli in 1 Chr 6:4 (1 Chr 6:19AV). the Levites ← the Levi / Levite. |
| Ex 6:20 | וַיִּקַּ֨ח עַמְרָ֜ם אֶת־יוֹכֶ֤בֶד דֹּֽדָתוֹ֙ ל֣וֹ לְאִשָּׁ֔ה וַתֵּ֣לֶד ל֔וֹ אֶֽת־אַהֲרֹ֖ן וְאֶת־מֹשֶׁ֑ה וּשְׁנֵי֙ חַיֵּ֣י עַמְרָ֔ם שֶׁ֧בַע וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֛ים וּמְאַ֖ת שָׁנָֽה׃ | And Amram took Jochebed his aunt as his wife, and she bore him Aaron and Moses.

Nahshon: AV= Naashon here, perhaps to distinguish him from the Nahshon in Ruth 4:20. Eleazar ← El'azar, the first syllable being closed, but we retain the AV / traditional English name. See Gen 31:21. |
| Ex 6:24 | וּבְנֵ֣י קֹ֔רַח אַסִּ֥יר וְאֶלְקָנָ֖ה וַאֲבִיאָסָ֑ף אֵ֖לֶּה מִשְׁפְּחֹ֥ת הַקָּרְחִֽי׃ | And the sons of Korah were Assir and Elkanah and Abiasaph. Those were the families of the Korhites. | |

or: this is a specifically disjunctive conjunction, unlike the general-purpose vav of Lev 18:17.
her ← their. Hebrew uses a plural form after “or”, but the antecedent, your sister, is singular. |
| Lev 18:10 | עֶרְוַ֤ת בַּת־בִּנְךָ֙ א֣וֹ בַֽת־בִּתְּךָ֔ לֹ֥א תְגַלֶּ֖ה עֶרְוָתָ֑ן כִּ֥י עֶרְוָתְךָ֖ הֵֽנָּה׃ ס | As for the nakedness of your son's daughter or your daughter's daughter, you shall not uncover their nakedness, for they are your nakedness. |

impregnate prostitutes of: compare Job 21:10 (verb in piel there). [BDB] and AV translate pass through (fire), which is possible, but out of context here and in Lev 20:5. So AV differs.
Molech ← the Molech, and similarly throughout Leviticus. |

| Lev 18:26 | וּשְׁמַרְתֶּ֣ם אַתֶּ֗ם אֶת־חֻקֹּתַי֙ וְאֶת־מִשְׁפָּטַ֔י וְלֹ֣א תַעֲשׂ֔וּ מִכֹּ֥ל הַתּוֹעֵבֹ֖ת הָאֵ֑לֶּה הָֽאֶזְרָ֔ח וְהַגֵּ֖ר הַגָּ֥ר בְּתוֹכְכֶֽם׃ | And you will keep my statutes and my regulations, and you will not commit any of these abominations – neither the native nor the foreigner who is living in your midst – | any ← all. |

offer (2x) ← sacrifice.
a peace-sacrifice ← a sacrifice of “peaces”. for your acceptance: objective, with [CB], for acceptance of you; or subjective, with AV, of your goodwill. So AV differs. |
| Lev 19:6 | בְּי֧וֹם זִבְחֲכֶ֛ם יֵאָכֵ֖ל וּמִֽמָּחֳרָ֑ת וְהַנּוֹתָר֙ עַד־י֣וֹם הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֔י בָּאֵ֖שׁ יִשָּׂרֵֽף׃ | It will be eaten on the day of your sacrifice, and on the next day. Then what remains up to the third day will be burned with fire. | the third day: compare Lev 7:17. |
| Lev 19:7 | וְאִ֛ם הֵאָכֹ֥ל יֵאָכֵ֖ל בַּיּ֣וֹם הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֑י פִּגּ֥וּל ה֖וּא לֹ֥א יֵרָצֶֽה׃ | And if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is a foul thing – it will not be accepted. | is eaten at all: infinitive absolute. |

Matt 5:33.
so profaning ← and you (would) profane. AV differs (neither shalt thou profane), introducing another prohibition. |
| Lev 19:13 | לֹֽא־תַעֲשֹׁ֥ק אֶת־רֵֽעֲךָ֖ וְלֹ֣א תִגְזֹ֑ל לֹֽא־תָלִ֞ין פְּעֻלַּ֥ת שָׂכִ֛יר אִתְּךָ֖ עַד־בֹּֽקֶר׃ | You shall not defraud your neighbour, and you will not plunder him, and you will not keep the wages of a hired labourer with you until the morning. | you will not keep the wages: or, with AV, taking תָּלִין as qal rather than hiphil, the wages shall not pass the night. So AV differs somewhat. |
| Lev 19:14 | לֹא־תְקַלֵּ֣ל חֵרֵ֔שׁ וְלִפְנֵ֣י עִוֵּ֔ר לֹ֥א תִתֵּ֖ן מִכְשֹׁ֑ל וְיָרֵ֥אתָ מֵּאֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ | You shall not curse the deaf, and you shall not put a stumbling block before the blind. And you will fear your God. I am the Lord. | |
