⁸ I will hear what God Jehovah shall speak: for he will speak peace to his people, and to his godly ones: and they shall not turn back to folly.

¹⁷ Make with me a sign for good, and they hating me shall see and be ashamed: for thou, Jehovah, didst help me and comfort me.

⁴⁹ Where thy former mercies, O Jehovah, thou didst sware to David in thy faithfulness?

² I will be prudent in a blameless way. When wilt thou come to me? I will go about in integrity of heart in the midst of my house.

¹³ As a father compassionating over his sons, Jehovah compassionated those fearing him. ¹⁴ For he knew our formation; he remembered that we are dust.

³⁴ They did not destroy the peoples which Jehovah said to them. ³⁵ And they will mingle with the nations, and they will learn their works. ³⁶ And they will serve their images, and they will be for a snare to them. ³⁷ And they will sacrifice their sons and their daughters to lords. ³⁸ And they will pour out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and their daughters which they sacrificed to the images of Canaan: and the land will be polluted with bloods. ³⁹ And they will be defiled with their works: and they will commit fornication in their doings. ⁴⁰ And the anger of Jehovah will kindle against his people, and he will abhor his inheritance. ⁴¹ And he will give them into the hand of the nations; and they hating them shall rule over them. ⁴² And their enemies will press them, and they shall be humbled under their hand. ⁴³ Many times he will deliver them, and they will embitter with their counsel, and they will be brought low in their iniquity. ⁴⁴ And he will look upon straits to them in his hearing their wailing.

³³ He will set rivers to a desert, and the findings of waters to thirst; ³⁴ A land of fruit to saltness, for the evil of those dwelling in it ³⁵ He will set a desert for pools of water, and a land of dryness for findings of water.

⁵ A good man, being merciful and lending: he will hold up his words in judgment;

⁴ Their images are silver and gold, the work of man's hands. ⁵ A mouth to them, and they shall not speak: eyes to them, and they will not see: ⁶ Ears to them, and they shall not hear: a nose to them, and they shall not smell: ⁷ Their hands, and they will not feel: their feet, and they shall not go: they shall not murmur in their throat

¹⁰ All nations surrounded me: in the name of Jehovah but I will cut them off. ¹¹ They surrounded me; also they surrounded me: in the name of Jehovah but I will cut them of ¹² They surrounded me as bees; they were quenched as the fire of thorns: in the name of Jehovah for I will destroy them.

¹⁰ To him striking Egypt in their first-born: for his mercy is forever. ¹¹ And he will bring forth Israel from the midst of them: for his mercy is forever. ¹² With a hand of strength, and with an arm stretched out: for his mercy is forever. ¹³ To him dividing the sea of sedge into parts: for his mercy is forever. ¹⁴ And he caused Israel to pass through in its midst: for his mercy is forever. ¹⁵ And he shook off Pharaoh and his strength into the sea of sedge: for his mercy is forever. ¹⁶ To him causing his people to go into the desert: for his mercy is forever.

¹⁹ Announcing his word to Jacob, his laws and judgments to Israel. ²⁰ He did not thus to every nation: and judgments they knew them not Praise ye Jah.

¹³ And I heard not to the voice of him teaching me, and I inclined not mine ear to him instructing me.

³ A poor man oppressing the poor, a sweeping rain and no bread.

⁵ I am black and beautiful, O daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.

⁵ And saying, Wo to me! for I was cut off; because I a man of unclean lips, and in the midst of a people of unclean lips I dwell: for mine eyes saw the king, Jehovah of armies. ⁶ And one from the seraphs will fly to me, and in his hand a hot stone, he took with the tongs from off the altar: ⁷ And he will touch upon my mouth, and say, Behold, this touched upon thy lips; and took away thine iniquity, and thy sin shall be covered. ⁸ And I shall hear the voice of Jehovah, saying, Whom shall I send, and who shall go for us? and behold me saying, Send me.

¹¹ Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God; make deep the asking, or make high upwards.

⁹ Make friendship, ye peoples, and be broken in pieces; and give ear, every land from afar; be girded and be broken in pieces; be girded and be broken in pieces. ¹⁰ Counsel ye, counsel, and it shall be dispersed; speak the word and it shall not stand: for God is with us.

²⁰ It shall not be inhabited forever, and it shall not be dwelt in even to generation and generation: and the Arabian shall not go on there, and the shepherds shall not recline there.

¹⁶ O Jehovah, in straits they looked after thee; they poured out a whispering thy correction to them.

⁶ Then shall the lame one leap as the stag, and the tongue of the dumb shall give forth the voice: for waters brake forth in the desert, and torrents in the sterile region. ⁷ And the dry was for a pool, and the thirsty land for fountains of water: in the dwelling of jackals its lying down, an enclosure for the reed and the bulrush

⁷ And the dry was for a pool, and the thirsty land for fountains of water: in the dwelling of jackals its lying down, an enclosure for the reed and the bulrush

⁷ And this to thee the sign from Jehovah that Jehovah will do this word which he spake: ⁸ Behold me turning back the shadow of the steps which will go down in the steps of Ahaz in the sun, backward ten steps. And the sun will turn back ten steps in the steps which it will go down.

¹⁰ Thou shalt not fear, for I am with thee: thou shalt not look around for help for I thy God will strengthen thee; also I helped thee; also I held thee up with the right hand of my justice.

¹⁴ Thou shalt not fear, thou worm Jacob, ye men of Israel; I helped thee, says Jehovah, and thy redeemer the Holy One of Israel. ¹⁵ Behold, I set thee to a new cutting threshing sledge having mouths: thou thalt thresh the mountains, and beat small, and the hills thou shalt set as chaff. ¹⁶ Thou shalt winnow them, and the wind shall lift them up, and the storm shall scatter them: and thou shalt rejoice in Jehovah, and glory in the Holy One of Israel. ¹⁷ The poor and the needy seeking water, and none; their tongue failing in thirst, I Jehovah will answer them; the God of Israel, I will not forsake them.

²³ Announce the things coming hereafter, and we shall know that ye are God: also will ye do good or will ye do evil, and we shall look around for help and see together.

¹⁹ Behold me doing a new thing; now it shall spring forth, shall ye not know it? I will also set a way in the desert, rivers in the waste. ²⁰ The beast of the field shall know me, the sea monster and the daughters of the ostrich: for I gave waters in the desert, rivers in the waste to give drink to my people, my chosen.

¹ Bel bent; Nebo bowed down; their images were for the beast and for the cattle: your gifts were carried; a lifting up to the weary.

⁷ They will lift him up upon the shoulder, they will carry him, they will set him down in his place and he will stand; from his place he shall not depart: also he will cry out to him and he will not answer; he will not save him from his straits

² Wherefore, I came, and no man? I called and none answered. Being short, was my hand shortened from redeeming? and if not power in me to deliver behold, in my rebuke I will dry up the sea; I will set the rivers a desert: their fish shall stink from no water, and they shall die with thirst

¹ Behold, the hand of Jehovah was not shortened from saving, and his ear heavy from hearing: ² But your iniquities were separating between you and between your God, and your sins caused to hide;the face from you from hearing.

⁶ An abundance of camels shall cover thee, the young camels of Midian and Ephah; all they from Seba shall come: they shall lift up gold and frankincense; they shall announce good news, the praises of Jehovah.

⁹ In all their straits not an adversary, and: a messenger of his face saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he will take them up and bear them all the days forever.

⁹ In all their straits not an adversary, and: a messenger of his face saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he will take them up and bear them all the days forever. ¹⁰ They embittered and grieved his holy spirit; and he will turn to them for an enemy; he fought against them. ¹¹ And he will remember the days of old, Moses his people; Where he bringing them up from the sea with the shepherd of his sheep? where he putting his holy spirit in the midst of him? ¹² Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of his glory dividing the waters from before them to make to him an eternal name. ¹³ Leading them through the depths as a horse in the desert, they shall not be weak ¹⁴ As cattle in the valley the spirit of Jehovah will come down, it will cause us to rest: so thou didst lead thy people, to make to thee a name of glory. ¹⁵ Look from the heavens, and see from thy holy dwelling and thy glory: where thy zeal and thy strength? the multitude of thy bowels and thy compassions to me restrained themselves.

²¹ And they built houses and they dwelt in them; and they planted vineyards, and they ate the fruit ²² They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat: for as the days of a tree the days of my people, and my chosen shall wear out the work of their hands.

⁶ And saying, Ah, Lord Jehovah, behold I knew not to speak: for I a boy.

¹³ Only know thine iniquity that thou didst transgress against Jehovah thy God, and thou wilt scatter thy ways to strangers under every green tree, and to my voice ye heard not, says Jehovah.

²⁵ We shall lie down in our shame, and our reproach will cover us: for we sinned against Jehovah our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day, and we heard not to the voice of Jehovah our God.

¹⁷ And it ate thy harvest and thy bread, that thy sons and thy daughters shall eat: it shall eat thy sheep and thine oxen: it shall eat thy vine and thy fig-trees: it shall break down thy fortified cities which thou trustedst in them, with the sword.

¹³ And Jehovah will say, For their forsaking my law which I gave before their face, and they heard not to my voice, and they went not in it.

² Thus said Jehovah, Ye shall not learn according to the way of the nations, and from the signs of the heavens ye shall not be terrified; for the nations will be terrified from them.

⁵ They are of turned work, as the palm tree, and they shall not speak; being lifted up they shall be lifted up, for they shall not mount up. Ye shall not be afraid of them, for they will not do evil, and also doing good is not with them.

¹¹ Thus shall ye say to them, The gods who made not the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.

¹³ For from the numbering of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and from the numbering of the streets of Jerusalem, ye set up altars to shame, altars to burn incense to Baal.

⁶ In his days shall Judah be saved, and Israel shall dwell with confidence: and this his name which he shall be called: Jehovah Our Justice.

³³ And when this people, or prophet, or priest, shall ask thee, saying, What the burden of Jehovah? and thou saidst to them, What burden? And I cast you off, says Jehovah.

¹¹ And the priests and the prophets will say to the chiefs, and to all the people, saying, The judgment of death for this man, for he prophesied against this city, as ye heard with your ears.

¹⁶ In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell with confidence; and this is what shall be called to her: Jehovah our Justice.

²¹ And I will announce to you this day; and ye heard not to the voice of Jehovah your God, and to all which he sent me to you.

⁴ And Johanan son of Kareah heard not, and all the chiefs of the armies, and all the people, to the voice of Jehovah, to dwell in the land of Judah.

⁷ And they will come to the land of Egypt: for they heard not to the voice of Jehovah, and they will come even to Tahpanhes.

²³ They cut down her forest, says Jehovah, for it shall not be searched out, for they were many above the locust, and no number to them.

⁹ If the vintages came to thee will they not leave gleanings? if thieves by night, they destroyed their sufficiency. ¹⁰ For I made Esau naked, I uncovered his secret places, he shall not be able to hide: his seed was laid waste, and his brethren and his neighbors, and he is not

²⁹ Their tents and their flocks they shall take away: their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels, shall they lift up for themselves; and they called to them, Fear from round about

³² And their camels were for plunder, and the multitude of their cattle for a spoil: and I scattered them to every wind cut off to the corner; and from all its regions beyond I will bring their calamity, says Jehovah.

³⁸ A sword upon her waters, and they shall be dried up: for it is a land of carved images, and in their terrors they will be foolish.

⁴⁵ For this, hear ye the counsel of Jehovah which he counseled against Babel; and his purposes which he purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: if the last of the flock shall not drag them out: if he shall not lay waste the habitation upon them.

⁵ And say to them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of my choosing upon Israel, and I will lift up my hand to the seed of the house of Jacob, and I will be known to them in the land of Egypt, and I will lift up my hand to them, saying, I am Jehovah your God; ⁶ In that day I lifted up my hand to them to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt to the land which I spied out for them flowing milk and honey; this the glory to all lands: ⁷ And saying to them, Cast ye away each the abominations of his eyes, an ye shall not be defiled with the blocks of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God. ⁸ And they will rebel against me, and they would not hear to me: they cast not away each the abominations of their eyes, and they forsook not the blocks of Egypt: and saying, To pour out my wrath upon them, to complete mine anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt ⁹ And I will do for sake of my name, that it was not profaned before the eyes of the nations which they were in the midst of them, which I was made known to them before their eyes to bring them forth from the land of Egypt. ¹⁰ And I shall cause, them to go forth from the land of Egypt, and I shall bring them to the desert. ¹¹ And I shall give to them my laws, and my judgments I caused them to know, which a man shall do them and he lived in them. ¹² And also my Sabbaths I gave to them to be for a sign between me and between them, to know that I am Jehovah consecrating them. ¹³ And the house of Israel will rebel against me fit the desert: in my laws they went not, and my judgments they rejected, which a man shall do them and he lived in them: and my Sabbaths they profaned greatly and saying, To pour out my wrath upon them in the desert to finish them.' ¹⁴ And I shall do for sake of my name, that it was not polluted before the eyes of the nations which I brought them forth before their eyes ¹⁵ And also I lifted up my hand to them in the desert, not to bring them in to the land which I gave flowing milk and honey; this the glory to all lands ¹⁶ Because they rejected upon my judgments, and my laws they went not in them, and my Sabbaths they profaned: for their heart went after their blocks. ¹⁷ And mine eye will spare for them from destroying them, and I made not a completion with them in the desert ¹⁸ And saying to their sons in the desert Ye shall not go in the laws of your fathers, and their judgments ye shall not watch, and with their blocks ye shall not be defiled.: ¹⁹ I am Jehovah your God; go ye in my: laws, and watch ye my judgments and do them ²⁰ And consecrate my Sabbaths; and they were for a sign between me and between you to know that I am Jehovah your God. ²¹ And their sons will rebel against me: they went not in my laws, and my judgments they watched not to do them, which a man shall do them and live in them: my Sabbaths they profaned: and saying, To pour out my wrath upon them to complete mine anger against them in the desert ²² And I turned back my hand; and I will do for sake of my name, that it was not profaned before the eyes of the nations which I brought them forth before their eyes. ²³ Also I lifted up my hand to them in the desert, to scatter them in the nations, to disperse them is the lands ²⁴ Because they did not my judgments, and my laws they rejected, and my Sabbaths they profaned, and their eyes were after their fathers blocks. ²⁵ And also I gave to them laws not good, and judgments they shall not live in them. ²⁶ And I will defile them in their gifts in causing to pass through all bursting open the womb, so that I shall make them desolate, that they shall know that I am Jehovah. ²⁷ For this, speak to the house of Israel, son of man, and say to them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Yet in this your fathers reviled me, in their transgressing a transgression against me. ²⁸ And I shall bring them to the land which I lifted up my hand to give, it to them, and they will see every high hill and every thick tree, and they will sacrifice there their sacrifices, and they will give there the provocation of their oblation, and they will set there the odor of their sweetnesses, and they will pour out there their libations: ²⁹ And saying to them, What the height where ye go there? And its name will be called Height, even to this day. ³⁰ For this, say to the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Are ye defiled in the way of your fathers? and commit ye fornication after their abominations?' ³¹ And in lifting up your gifts, in causing your sons to pass into the fire ye are defiled for all your blocks, even to this day: and shall I be sought for you, O house of Israel? I live, says the Lord Jehovah, if I will be sought by you. ³² And the things were coming up upon your spirit which will not be which ye say, We will be as the nations, as the families of the lands to serve wood and stone.

³⁵ Bound about eighteen thousand: and the name of the city from the day, Jehovah them

¹⁹ And he will say, Thou shalt not fear, O man of desires: peace to thee; be strong, and be strong. And in his speaking with me I was strengthened, and saying, My lord shall speak; for thou didst strengthen me.

¹⁵ I will go and turn back to my place, even till when they shall be guilty, and they sought my face: in straitness to them they will turn to me.

³ And we shall know, we shall pursue to know Jehovah: as the morning his going forth was prepared; and he shall come as the rain to us, as the latter rain, the early rain of the earth. ⁴ What shall I do to thee, O Ephraim? What shall I do to thee, O Judah? and your kindness as the cloud of the morning, and as the dew being early went away.

¹⁰ I found Israel as grapes in the desert; as the first fruit in the fig-tree in her beginning I saw your fathers: they went to Baal-Peor, and they will separate themselves to shame, and their abominable things will be according to their love.

⁵ I will be as the dew to Israel: he shall blossom as the lily and strike his roots as Lebanon.

⁵ If thieves came to thee, if those laying waste by night, (how thou wert destroyed!) will not they steal their sufficiency? If the grape gatherers came to thee will they not leave gleanings?

² And thou, house of bread, of Ephratah, for being small among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall come forth to me he being ruler in Israel; and his goings forth from of old from the days of eternity.

¹⁵ Thou shalt sow and thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olive and thou shalt not anoint thyself with oil; and new wine, and thou shalt not drink wine.

⁷ I saw the tents of Cushan under vanity: the curtains of the land of strife shall be moved.

² She heard not to the voice: she received not instruction; she trusted not in Jehovah; she drew not near to her God.

⁴ For Edom will say, We were broken down, and we will turn back and build the wastes; thus said Jehovah of armies: They shall build and I will pull down; and calling to them, The bound of injustice, and, The people with whom Jehovah was very angry, even to forever.

²³ Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, God with us.

²⁴ None can serve two lords: for either he will hate one and love the other; or hold firmly to one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

¹² But the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness; weeping shall be there, and gnashing of teeth.

⁵ These twelve Jesus sent, having announced to them, saying, Go not in the way of the nations, and into the city of the Samaritans enter ye not. ⁶ But rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

³⁷ He loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me; and he loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me.

²⁴ And he, having answered, said, I was not sent except to the sheep having been lost, of the house of Israel.

¹ And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, asked him to shew them a sign from heaven.

²⁴ Then said Jesus to his disciples, If any wish to come after me, let him deny himself absolutely, and lift up his cross, and follow me.

⁴³ For this I say to you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and shall be given to a nation doing its fruits.

²⁰ Teaching them to keep all things whatever I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you all the days, even to the end of time. Amen.

²⁰ And they, having gone forth, proclaimed every where, the Lord performing together, and confirming the word by signs following. Amen.

¹¹ And a messenger of the Lord was seen to him, standing from the right of the altar of fumigation.

²⁸ And the messenger, having come in to her said, Hail, thou made acceptable; the Lord with thee: praised thou among women.

³⁴ And Mary said to the messenger, How shall this be, since I. know not man?

¹⁸ None has seen God at any time; the only born Son, he being in the bosom of the Father, he has declared.

⁵ His mother says to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do.

² He came to Jesus by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come a teacher from God: for none can do these signs which thou doest, except God be with him.

⁴¹ These said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

²⁷ Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be timid.

¹⁴ Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you.

² They shall make you excluded from the synagogue: but the hour comes that every one having slain you should think to bring service to God.

¹⁹ Then it being evening, in that one day of the sabbaths, and the doors shut where the disciples were gathered together for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and says to them, Peace to you.

²⁶ And after eight days again were his disciples within, and Thomas with them: Jesus comes, the doors shut, and said, Peace to you.

¹⁹ And Peter and John having answered to them, said, If it is just before God to hear you rather than God, judge ye.

²⁹ And Peter having answered, and the sent, said, We must obey God rather than men.

²¹ And the hand of the Lord was with them; and a great number having believed, turned to the Lord.

⁴⁶ And Paul and Barnabas speaking freely, said, To you was it first necessary for the word of God to be spoken: but since ye reject it, and judge yourselves not worthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the nations.

⁹ And the Lord said through a vision by night to Paul, Fear not, but speak, and thou shouldest not be silent: ¹⁰ For I am with thee, and none shall attack thee to injure thee: for much people are to me in this city.

²¹ And he said to me, Go: for I will send thee far off to the nations.

⁹ I therefore truly thought to myself, I must do many things contrary to the name of Jesus, the Nazarite.

²⁸ Be it known to you therefore, that salvation of God was sent to the nations, and they shall hear.

⁷ To all being in Rome, beloved of God, called holy: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

³¹ What then shall we say to these? if God with us, who against us?

³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? pressure, or perplexity, or expulsion, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ³⁶ As has been written, That for thy sake we are killed the whole day; we were reckoned as sheep for slaughter. ³⁷ But in all these we obtain a complete victory by him having loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor beginnings, nor powers, nor things having stood, nor things about to be, ³⁹ Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creation, shall be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

¹⁶ But not all listened to the good news. For Esaias says, Lord, who believed our report?

¹² And if their fall the riches of the world, and their disaster the riches of the nations; how much more their fulness? ¹³ (For I speak to you the nations, inasmuch as truly I am the sent of the nations, I highly value my service: ¹⁴ If in some way I might make jealous my flesh, and I might save some of them.) ¹⁵ For if their rejection the reconciliation of the world, what the reception, but life from the dead? ¹⁶ And if the first fruit holy, also the mixture: and if the root holy, also the young shoots. ¹⁷ And if certain of the young shoots were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in them, and wert a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree; ¹⁸ Act not proudly to the young shoots. And if thou boastest, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. ¹⁹ Thou wilt say then, That the young shoots were broken off, that I might be grafted in. ²⁰ Well; for unbelief were they broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but do thou fear: ²¹ For if God spared not the young shoots according to nature, how will he either spare thee ²² Behold then the goodness and severity of God: truly upon the fallen, severity; and upon thee, goodness, if thou continue in goodness: otherwise shalt thou also be cut off.

¹⁴ But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not consideration for the flesh, for the passions.

⁴ Concerning food therefore of sacrifices to idols, we know that an idol nothing in the world, and that none other God but one.

⁸ For truly to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; ⁹ And to another faith in the same Spirit; and to another graces of healings in the same Spirit; ¹⁰ And to another performances of powers; and to another discriminations of spirits; and to another kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues: ¹¹ And all these works one and the same Spirit, dividing to each his own things as be will.

³³ For God is not of unsteadiness, but of peace, as in all the churches of the holy ones.

⁴⁰ Let all things be becomingly and according to order.

⁹ For I am the least of the sent, who am not fit to be called sent, for I drove out the church of God.

¹⁵ And what conformity to Christ with Belial? and what part to the believing with the unbelieving? ¹⁶ And what agreement to the temple of God with images? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God said, That I will dwell in them, and will go round about; and will be their God, and they shall be a people to me. ¹⁷ Therefore come out from the midst of them, and be separated, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you.

¹⁶ To reveal his Son in me, that I might announce him the good news in the nations; I consulted not with flesh and blood:

²⁷ For as many of you as were immersed into Christ have put on Christ.

⁸ To me, the least of all the holy ones, was this grace given, to announce the good news in the nations, the untraceable riches of Christ.

¹¹ And participate not with the unfruitful works of darkness, and rather also confute.

⁶ For zeal, driving out the church; for justice in the law, not to be found fault with.

⁴ But as we have been tried by God to be entrusted with the good news, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, trying our hearts:

⁹ And being perfected, he became to all them lending a willing ear to him the origin of eternal salvation

³² And what more do I say? for the time will fail me recounting of Gedeon, Barak, and also Samson and Jephthae; David also, and Samuel, and the prophets:

³⁴ Quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouth of the sword, were strengthened from weakness, were strong in war, turned away the armies of strangers.

³⁸ (Of whom the world was not worthy:) wandering about in solitary places, and mountains, and caves, and holes of the earth.

¹⁵ And the kings of the earth, and the great, and the rich, and the captains of thousands, and the powerful, and every servant, and every one free, hid themselves in caves and in rocks of the mountains;
