²⁷ The sons of Gerson shall carry, by the commandment of Aaron and his sons: and each man shall know to what burden he must be assigned. ²⁸ This is the service of the family of the Gersonites in the tabernacle of the covenant, and they shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. ²⁹ Thou shalt reckon up the sons of Merari also by the families and houses of their fathers, ³⁰ From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to the office of their ministry, and to the service of the covenant of the testimony. ³¹ These are their burdens: They shall carry the boards of the tabernacle and the bars thereof, the pillars and their sockets,

³¹ These are their burdens: They shall carry the boards of the tabernacle and the bars thereof, the pillars and their sockets, ³² The pillars also of the court round about, with their sockets and pins and cords. They shall receive by account all the vessels and furniture, and so shall carry them. ³³ This is the office of the family of the Merarites, and their ministry in the tabernacle of the covenant: and they shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

³⁵ From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to the ministry of the tabernacle of the covenant:

³⁷ This is the number of the people of Caath that go in to the tabernacle of the covenant: these did Moses and Aaron number according to the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

³⁹ From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant:

⁴¹ This is the people of the Gersonites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the Lord.

⁴³ From thirty years old and upward, unto fifty years old, all that go in to fulfil the rites of the tabernacle of the covenant:

⁴⁵ This is the number of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron reckoned up according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

⁴⁷ From thirty years old and upward, until fifty years old, that go into the ministry of the tabernacle, and to carry the burdens,

⁴⁹ Moses reckoned them up according to the word of the Lord, every one according to their office and burdens, as the Lord had commanded him.

¹ And it came to pass in the day that Moses had finished the tabernacle, and set it up, and had anointed and sanctified it with all its vessels, the altar likewise and all the vessels thereof,

⁵ Receive them from them to serve in the ministry of the tabernacle, and thou shalt deliver them to the Levites according to the order of their ministry. ⁶ Moses therefore receiving the wagons and the oxen, delivered them to the Levites. ⁷ Two wagons and four oxen he gave to the sons of Gerson, according to their necessity. ⁸ The other four wagons, and eight oxen he gave to the sons of Merari, according to their offices and service, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. ⁹ But to the sons of Caath he gave no wagons or oxen: because they serve in the sanctuary and carry their burdens upon their own shoulders.

⁹ But to the sons of Caath he gave no wagons or oxen: because they serve in the sanctuary and carry their burdens upon their own shoulders.

²⁴ This is the law of the Levites: From twenty-five years old and upwards, they shall go in to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant. ²⁵ And when they shall have accomplished the fiftieth year of their age, they shall cease to serve: ²⁶ And they shall be the ministers of their brethren in the tabernacle of the covenant, to keep the things that are committed to their care, but not to do the works. Thus shalt thou order the Levites touching their charge.

¹⁴ The sons of Juda by their troops: whose prince was Nahasson the son of Aminadab.

²¹ Then the Caathites also marched carrying the sanctuary. So long was the tabernacle carried, till they came to the place of setting it up.

⁹ Is it a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath spared you from all the people, and joined you to himself, that you should serve him in the service of the tabernacle, and should stand before the congregation of the people, and should minister to him?

³² And opening her mouth, devoured them with their tents and all their substance.

¹⁰ And the Lord said to Moses: Carry back the rod of Aaron into the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be kept there for a token of the rebellious children of Israel, and that their complaints may cease from me lest they die.

⁵ Watch ye in the charge of the sanctuary, and in the ministry of the altar: lest indignation rise upon the children of Israel.

⁹ And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests the sons of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the ancients of Israel.

²⁵ His shoe shall be iron and brass. As the days of thy youth, so also shall thy old age be.

⁶ And he said to the priests: Take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people. And they obeyed his commands, and took it up, and walked before them.

¹⁰ Now the priests that carried the ark, stood in the midst of the Jordan, till all things were accomplished, which the Lord had commanded Josue to speak to the people, and Moses had said to him. And the people made haste, and passed over.

¹⁹ But he slew of the men of Bethsames, because they had seen the ark of the Lord, and he slew of the people seventy men, and fifty thousand of the common people. And the people lamented, because the Lord had smitten the people with a great slaughter.

² And David arose and went, with all the people that were with him of the men of Juda to fetch the ark of God, upon which the name of the Lord of Hosts is invoked, who sitteth over it upon the cherubims. ³ And they laid the ark of God upon a new cart: and took it out of the house of Abinadab, who was in Gabaa, and Oza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart. ⁴ And when they had taken it out of the house of Abinadab, who was in Gabaa, Ahio having care of the ark of God went before the ark. ⁵ But David and all Israel played before the Lord on all manner of instruments made of wood, on harps and lutes and timbrels and cornets and cymbals. ⁶ And when they came to the floor of Nachon, Oza put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it: because the oxen kicked and made it lean aside.

⁶ And when they came to the floor of Nachon, Oza put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it: because the oxen kicked and made it lean aside. ⁷ And the indignation of the Lord was enkindled against Oza, and he struck him for his rashness: and he died there before the ark of God.

⁷ And the indignation of the Lord was enkindled against Oza, and he struck him for his rashness: and he died there before the ark of God. ⁸ And David was grieved because the Lord had struck Oza, and the name of that place was called: The striking of Oza, to this day. ⁹ And David was afraid of the Lord that day, saying: How shall the ark of the Lord come to me?

¹³ And when they that carried the ark of the Lord had gone six paces, he sacrificed and ox and a ram:

⁷ For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and covered the ark, and the staves thereof above. ⁸ And whereas the staves stood out, the ends of them were seen without, in the sanctuary before the oracle, but were not seen farther out, and there they have been unto this day.

⁴ And in the seventh year Joiada sent, and taking the centurions and soldiers, brought them in to him into the temple of the Lord, and made a covenant with them: and taking an oath of them in the house of the Lord, shewed them the king's son: ⁵ And he commanded them, saying: This is the thing that you must do. ⁶ Let a third part of you go in on the sabbath, and keep the watch of the king's house. And let a third part be at the gate of Sur; and let a third part be at the gate behind the dwelling of the shieldbearers; and you shall keep the watch of the house of Messa. ⁷ But let two parts of you all that go forth on the sabbath, keep the watch of the house of the Lord about the king. ⁸ And you shall compass him round about, having weapons in your hands: and if any man shall enter the precinct of the temple, let him be slain: and you shall be with the king, coming in and going out. ⁹ And the centurions did according to all things that Joiada the priest, had commanded them: and takiug every one their men, that went in on the sabbath, with them that went out in the sabbath, came to Joiada, the priest. ¹⁰ And he gave them the spears, and the arms of king David, which were in the house of the Lord. ¹¹ And they stood, having every one their weapons in their hands, from the right side of the temple, unto the left side of the altar, and of the temple, about the king. ¹² And he brought forth the king's son, and put the diadem upon him, and the testimony: and they made him king, and anointed him: and clapping their hands, they said: God save the king.

¹⁴ They took away also the pots of brass, and the mazers, and the forks, and the cups, and the mortars, and all the vessels of brass, with which they ministered. ¹⁵ Moreover also the censers, and the bowls, such as were of gold in gold: and such as were of silver in silver, the general of the army took away.

⁴⁸ Their brethren also the Levites, who were appointed for all the ministry of the tabernacle of the house of the Lord.

²⁹ Some of them also had the instruments of the sanctuary committed unto them, and the charge of the fine flour, and wine, and oil, and frankincense, and spices.

⁹ And when they came to the floor of Chidon, Oza put forth his hand, to hold up the ark: for the ox being wanton had made it lean a little on one side. ¹⁰ And the Lord was angry with Oza, and struck him, because he had touched the ark; and he died there before the Lord.

² Then David said: No one ought to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.

¹⁵ And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.

³ And the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years, and upwards: and there were found of them thirty-eight thousand men.

³ And the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years, and upwards: and there were found of them thirty-eight thousand men. ⁴ Of these twenty-four thousand were chosen, and distributed unto the ministry of the house of the Lord: and six thousand were the overseers and judges. ⁵ Moreover four thousand were porters: and as many singers singing to the Lord with the instruments, which he had made to sing with.

²⁴ These are the sons of Levi in their kindreds and families, princes by their courses, and the number of every head that did the works of the ministry of the house of the Lord from twenty years old and upward.

²⁴ These are the sons of Levi in their kindreds and families, princes by their courses, and the number of every head that did the works of the ministry of the house of the Lord from twenty years old and upward. ²⁵ For David said: The Lord the God of Israel hath given rest to his people, and a habitation in Jerusalem for ever. ²⁶ And it shall not be the office of the Levites to carry any more the tabernacle, and all the vessels for the service thereof.

²⁶ And it shall not be the office of the Levites to carry any more the tabernacle, and all the vessels for the service thereof. ²⁷ So according to the last precepts of David, the sons of Levi are to be numbered from twenty years old and upward.

²⁷ So according to the last precepts of David, the sons of Levi are to be numbered from twenty years old and upward.

²⁷ So according to the last precepts of David, the sons of Levi are to be numbered from twenty years old and upward. ²⁸ And they are to be under the hand of the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the Lord, in the porches, and in the chambers, and in the place of purification, and in the sanctuary, and in all the works of the ministry of the temple of the Lord. ²⁹ And the priests have the charge of the loaves of proposition, and of the sacrifice of fine flour, and of the unleavened cakes, and of the fryingpan, and of the roasting, and of every weight and measure. ³⁰ And the Levites are to stand in the morning to give thanks, and to sing praises to the Lord: and in like manner in the evening, ³¹ As well in the oblation of the holocausts of the Lord, as in the sabbaths and in the new moons, and the rest of the solemnities, according to the number and ceremonies prescribed for every thing, continually before the Lord. ³² And let them keep the observances of the tabernacle of the covenant, and the ceremonies of the sanctuary, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, that they may minister in the house of the Lord.

¹² As also of all the courts, which he had in his thought, and of the chambers round about, for the treasures of the house of the Lord, and for the treasures of the consecrated things, ¹³ And of the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, for all the works of the house of the Lord, and for all the vessels of the service of the temple of the Lord.

¹³ And of the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, for all the works of the house of the Lord, and for all the vessels of the service of the temple of the Lord.

¹¹ And Hiram made caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls: and finished all the king's work the house of God:

¹⁶ And the caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls. All the vessels did Hiram his father make for Solomon in the house of the Lord of the finest brass.

¹⁹ And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the golden altar, and the tables, upon which were the loaves of proposition,

²² The vessels also for the perfumes, and the censers, and the bowls, and the mortars, of pure gold. And he graved the doors of the inner temple, that is, for the holy of holies: and the doors of the temple without were of gold. And thus all the work was finished which Solomon made in the house of the Lord.

¹ And in the seventh year Joiada being encouraged, took the captains of hundreds, to wit, Azarias the son of Jeroham, and Ismahel the son of Johanan, and Azarias the son of Obed, and Maasias the son of Adaias, and Elisaphat the son of Zechri: and made a covenant with them. ² And they went about Juda, and gathered together the Levites out of all the cities of Juda, and the chiefs of the families of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem. ³ And all the multitude made a covenant with the king in the house of God: and Joiada said to them: Behold the king's son shall reign, as the Lord hath said of the sons of David. ⁴ And this is the thing that you shall do: ⁵ A third part of you that come to the sabbath, of the priests, and of the Levites, and of the porters shall be at the gates: and a third part at the king's house: and a third at the gate that is called the Foundation: but let all the rest of the people be in the courts of the house of the Lord. ⁶ And let no one come into the house of the Lord, but the priests, and they that minister of the Levites: let them only come in, because they are sanctified: and let all the rest of the people keep the watches of the Lord. ⁷ And let the Levites be round about the king, every man with his arms; and if any other come into the temple, let him be slain; and let them be with the king, both coming in, and going out. ⁸ So the Levites, and all Juda did according to all that Joiada the high priest had commanded: and they took every one his men that were under him, and that came in by the course of the sabbath, with those who had fulfilled the sabbath, and were to go out. For Joiada the high priest permitted not the companies to depart, which were accustomed to succeed one another every week. ⁹ And Joiada the priest gave to the captains the spears, and the shields, and targets of king David, which he had dedicated in the house of the Lord. ¹⁰ And he set all the people with swords in their hands from the right side of the temple, to the left side of the temple, before the altar, and the temple, round about the king. ¹¹ And they brought out the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and the testimony, and gave him the law to hold in his hand, and they made him king: and Joiada the high priest and his sons anointed him: and they prayed for him, and said: God save the king.

⁸ And in the second year of their coming to the temple of God in Jerusalem, the second month, Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Josue the son of Josedec, and the rest of their brethren the priests, and the Levites, and all that were come from the captivity to Jerusalem began, and they appointed Levites from twenty years old and upward, to hasten forward the work of the Lord.

¹ A psalm for David. The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou at my right hand: Until I make thy enemies thy footstool. ² The Lord will send forth the sceptre of thy power out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thy enemies. ³ With thee is the principality in the day of thy strength: in the brightness of the saints: from the womb before the day star I begot thee. ⁴ The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech. ⁵ The Lord at thy right hand hath broken kings in the day of his wrath. ⁶ He shall judge among nations, he shall fill ruins: he shall crush the heads in the land of many. ⁷ He shall drink of the torrent in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.

¹⁰⁵ Thy word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my paths.

⁶ For a man shall take hold of his brother, one of the house of his father, saying: Thou hast a garment, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand.

² And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him: the spirit of wisdom, and of understanding, the spirit of counsel, and of fortitude, the spirit of knowledge, and of godliness. ³ And he shall be filled with the spirit of the fear of the Lord, He shall not judge according to the sight of the eyes, nor reprove according to the hearing of the ears. ⁴ But he shall judge the poor with justice, and shall reprove with equity the meek of the earth: and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall slay the wicked.

⁷ And he shall destroy in this mountain the face of the bond with which all people were tied, and the web that he began over all nations.

¹ Behold my servant, I will uphold him: my elect, my soul delighteth in him: I have given my spirit upon him, he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. ² He shall not cry, nor have respect to person, neither shall his voice be heard abroad. ³ The bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench, he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. ⁴ He shall not be sad, nor troublesome, till he set judgment in the earth, and the islands shall wait for his law. ⁵ Thus saith the Lord God that created the heavens, and stretched them out: that established the earth, and the things that spring out of it: that giveth breath to the people upon it, and spirit to them that tread thereon. ⁶ I the Lord have called thee in justice, and taken thee by the hand, and preserved thee. And I have given thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles: ⁷ That thou mightest open the eyes of the blind, and bring forth the prisoner out of prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

¹ Give ear, ye islands, and hearken, ye people from afar. The Lord hath called me from the womb, from the bowels of my mother he hath been mindful of my name. ² And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword: in the shadow of his hand he hath protected me, and hath made me as a chosen arrow: in his quiver he hath hidden me. ³ And he said to me: Thou art my servant Israel, for in thee will I glory. ⁴ And I said: I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength without cause and in vain: therefore my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God. ⁵ And now saith the Lord, that formed me from the womb to be his servant, that I may bring back Jacob unto him, and Israel will not be gathered together: and I am glorified in the eyes of the Lord, and my God is made my strength. ⁶ And he said: It is a small thing that thou shouldst be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to convert the dregs of Israel. Behold, I have given thee to be the light of the Gentiles, that thou mayst be my salvation even to the farthest part of the earth. ⁷ Thus saith the Lord the redeemer of Israel, his Holy One, to the soul that is despised, to the nation that is abhorred, to the servant of rulers: Kings shall see, and princes shall rise up, and adore for the Lord's sake, because he is faithful, and for the Holy One of Israel, who hath chosen thee. ⁸ Thus saith the Lord: In an acceptable time I have heard thee, and in the day of salvation I have helped thee: and I have preserved thee, and given thee to be a covenant of the people, that thou mightest raise up the earth, and possess the inheritances that were destroyed:

¹ Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bosra, this beautiful one in his robe, walking in the greatness of his strength. I, that speak justice, and am a defender to save. ² Why then is thy apparel red, and thy garments like theirs that tread in the winepress? ³ I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the Gentiles there is not a man with me: I have trampled on them in my indignation, and have trodden them down in my wrath, and their blood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my apparel. ⁴ For the day of vengeance is in my heart, the year of my redemption is come.

²³ And all thy wives, and thy children shall be brought out to the Chaldeans, and thou shalt not escape their hands, but thou shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and he shall burn this city with fire.

¹⁴ How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it!

¹⁶ So shall the last be first and the first last. For many are called but few chosen.

¹⁵ Then the Pharisees going, consulted among themselves how to insnare him in his speech.

⁵¹ And behold the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top even to the bottom: and the earth quaked and the rocks were rent.

³⁴ Even as a man who, going into a far country, left his house and gave authority to his servants over every work and commanded the porter to watch.

⁷⁰ As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets, who are from the beginning.

²³ And Jesus himself was beginning about the age of thirty years: being (as it was supposed) the son of Joseph, who was of Heli, who was of Mathat,

¹⁸ The spirit of the Lord is upon me. Wherefore he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the contrite of heart,

²⁸ Take heed to yourselves and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the Church of God which he hath purchased with his own blood.

¹⁴ For we know that the law is spiritual. But I am carnal, sold under sin. ¹⁵ For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will: but the evil which I hate, that I do. ¹⁶ If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good. ¹⁷ Now then it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me. ¹⁸ For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will is present with me: but to accomplish that which is good, I find not. ¹⁹ For the good which I will, I do not: but the evil which I will not, that I do. ²⁰ Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me. ²¹ I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me. ²² For I am delighted with the law of God, according to the inward man: ²³ But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind and captivating me in the law of sin that is in my members. ²⁴ Unhappy man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

⁴ For as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same office: ⁵ So we, being many, are one body in Christ; and every one members one of another: ⁶ And having different gifts, according to the grace that is given us, either prophecy, to be used according to the rule of faith; ⁷ Or ministry, in ministering; or he that teacheth, in doctrine; ⁸ He that exhorteth, in exhorting; he that giveth, with simplicity; he that ruleth, with carefulness; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

¹ Let a man so account of us as of the ministers of Christ and the dispensers of the mysteries of God.

⁷ Who serveth as a soldier, at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

¹³ Let no temptation take hold on you, but such as is human. And God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able: but will make also with temptation issue, that you may be able to bear it.

² Now I praise you, brethren, that in all things you are mindful of me and keep my ordinances as I have delivered them to you.

⁴ Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit. ⁵ And there are diversities of ministries. but the same Lord.

⁵ And there are diversities of ministries. but the same Lord. ⁶ And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all.

⁶ And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all. ⁷ And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit. ⁸ To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit:

⁸ To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: ⁹ To another, faith in the same spirit: to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit:

⁹ To another, faith in the same spirit: to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit: ¹⁰ To another the working of miracles: to another, prophecy: to another, the discerning of spirits: to another, diverse kinds of tongues: to another, interpretation of speeches.

¹⁰ To another the working of miracles: to another, prophecy: to another, the discerning of spirits: to another, diverse kinds of tongues: to another, interpretation of speeches. ¹¹ But all these things, one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.

¹¹ But all these things, one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will. ¹² For as the body is one and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body: So also is Christ.

¹² For as the body is one and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body: So also is Christ. ¹³ For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free: and in one Spirit we have all been made to drink. ¹⁴ For the body also is not one member, but many. ¹⁵ If the foot should say: Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body: Is it therefore not of the Body? ¹⁶ And if the ear should say: Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body: Is it therefore not of the body? ¹⁷ If the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling? ¹⁸ But now God hath set the members, every one of them, in the body as it hath pleased him. ¹⁹ And if they all were one member, where would be the body? ²⁰ But now there are many members indeed, yet one body. ²¹ And the eye cannot say to the hand: I need not thy help. Nor again the head to the feet: I have no need of you. ²² Yea, much, more those that seem to be the more feeble members of the body are more necessary ²³ And such as we think to be the less houourable members of the body, about these we put more abundant honour: and those that are our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. ²⁴ But our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, giving to that which wanted the more abundant honour. ²⁵ That there might be no schism in the body: but the members might be mutually careful one for another. ²⁶ And if one member suffer any thing, all the members suffer with it: or if one member glory, all the members rejoice with it. ²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ and members of member. ²⁸ And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors: after that miracles: then the graces of healings, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches. ²⁹ Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors? ³⁰ Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? ³¹ But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way.

⁷ In the word of truth, in the power of God: by the armour of justice on the right hand and on the left:

³ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.

³ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. ⁴ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty to God, unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels,

⁴ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty to God, unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels, ⁵ And every height that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God: and bringing into captivity every understanding unto the obedience of Christ:

⁹ And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee: for power is made perfect in infirmity. Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me. ¹⁰ For which cause I please myself in my infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ. For when I am weak, then am I powerful.

¹⁷ For the flesh lusteth against the spirit: and the spirit against the flesh: For these are contrary one to another: so that you do not the things that you would.

²⁴ And they that are Christ's have crucified their flesh, with the vices and concupiscences.

¹⁰ Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord and in the might of his power.

¹⁰ Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord and in the might of his power. ¹¹ Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil.

¹¹ Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil. ¹² For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.

¹² For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places. ¹³ Therefore, take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day and to stand in all things perfect.

¹³ Therefore, take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day and to stand in all things perfect. ¹⁴ Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth and having on the breastplate of justice:

¹⁸ This precept, I commend to thee, O son Timothy: according to the prophecies going before on thee, that thou war in them a good warfare,

⁵ For there is one God: and one mediator of God and men, the man Christ Jesus:

¹ A faithful saying: If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth good work.

⁶ Not a neophyte: lest, being puffed up with pride, he fall into the judgment of the devil.

¹¹ But thou, O man of God, fly these things: and pursue justice, godliness, faith, charity, patience, mildness. ¹² Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art called and be it confessed a good confession before many witnesses.

³ Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. ⁴ No man, being a soldier to God, entangleth himself with secular businesses: that he may please him to whom he hath engaged himself.

⁷ I have fought a good fight: I have finished my course: I have kept the faith. ⁸ As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming. Make haste to come to me quickly.

¹ Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:

⁶ But Christ, as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.

³ And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies:

¹⁹ Having therefore, brethren, a confidence in the entering into the holies by the blood of Christ: ²⁰ A new and living way which he hath dedicated for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh:

¹⁸ For you are not come to a mountain that might be touched and a burning fire and a whirlwind and darkness and storm, ¹⁹ And the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, which they that had excused themselves, that the word might not be spoken to them. ²⁰ For they did not endure that which was said: and if so much as a beast shall touch the mount, it shall be stoned. ²¹ And so terrible was that which was seen, Moses said: I am frighted, and tremble. ²² But you are come to mount Sion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to the company of many thousands of angels, ²³ And to the church of the firstborn who are written in the heavens, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the just made perfect, ²⁴ And to Jesus the mediator of the new testament, and to the sprinkling of blood which speaketh better than that of Abel. ²⁵ See that you refuse him not that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke upon earth, much more shall not we that turn away from him that speaketh to us from heaven. ²⁶ Whose voice then moved the earth; but now he promiseth, saying: Yet once more: and I will move, not only the earth, but heaven also. ²⁷ And in that he saith: Yet once more, he signifieth the translation of the moveable things as made, that those things may remain which are immoveable. ²⁸ Therefore, receiving an immoveable kingdom, we have grace: whereby let us serve, pleasing God, with fear and reverence. ²⁹ For our God is a consuming fire.

²⁵ For you were as sheep going astray: but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.

² Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking care of it, not by constraint but willingly, according to God: not for filthy lucre's sake but voluntarily:

²⁰ The mystery of the seven stars, which thou sawest in my right hand and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.

¹⁹ And the temple of God was opened in heaven: and the ark of his testament was seen in his temple. And there were lightnings and voices and an earthquake and great hail.
