2 Reuben | drinks; and by it strength is 8 produced, for in food is
3 Reuben | the taking of gifts. 7, 8 And with all these the spirit
4 Reuben | he bringeth reproach upon 8 himself with the sons of
5 Reuben | me also, and to Dan and 8 Joseph, that we should be
6 Simeon | brother, nor did I spare even 8 Jacob my father. But his
7 Simeon | envy will withdraw from 8 you. For this maketh savage
8 Simeon | throughout their generations. ~8 1 And when Simeon had made
9 Levi | there a great sea hanging. 8 And further I saw a second
10 Levi | the presence of the Lord. 8 And in the heaven next to
11 Levi | sinned because we had done 8 this thing against his will,
12 Levi | departed and came to Bethel. ~8 1, 2 And there again I saw
13 Levi | vestment like an ephod. The 8, 9 fourth put round me a
14 Levi | priesthood, of sacrifices, 8 whole burnt-offerings, first-fruits,

16 Levi | callousness (that comes) of sin. 8 For if one keep oneself
17 Levi | lifting yourselves up against 8 men, and not only so, but
18 Levi | shall be such pollution 8 as I cannot express before

25 Judah | transgressed the commandment of the 8 Lord and the commandment
26 Judah | discretion in drinking wine a man 8 may drink so long as he
27 Judah | money shall they plunder: 8 And with the flesh of many
28 Issachar| and Leah said to Rachel: 8 Let it suffice thee that
29 Issachar| thousandfold His benefits in my 8 hands; and also Jacob, my
30 Issachar| and to Judah the kingdom. 8 And do ye therefore obey
31 Issachar| in singleness of heart. 8 And having said these things,
32 Zebulun | which our fathers digged 8 and found no water. For
33 Zebulun | but were spit upon also, 8 falling down before him
34 Zebulun | therefore came to him and said: 8, 9 Weep not, neither grieve;
35 Zebulun | to every man whom I saw, 8 and sufficed for all the
