²⁰ And the LORD said, 'Who shall deceive Ahab that he may go and be slain at Ramoth in Gilead?' And one said on this manner and another on that.

¹ They shall seek me, that hitherto have not asked for me, they shall find me, that hitherto have not sought me. Then shall I say immediately to the people that never called upon my name, "I am here, I am here."

²⁰ And they straightaway left their nets, and followed him. ²¹ And he went forth from thence, and saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and called them. ²² And they, without tarrying, left the ship and their father and followed him.

⁴ And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?"

²⁴ But none of those things move me. Neither is my life dear unto myself; that I might fulfill my course with joy, and the ministration which I have received of the Lord Jesus to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

²¹ And he said unto me, 'Depart for I will send thee afar hence unto the gentiles.'"

¹⁶ But rise and stand up on thy feet. For I have appeared unto thee for this purpose: to make thee a minister, and a witness both of those things which thou hast seen, and of those things in thee which I will appear unto thee, ¹⁷ delivering thee from the people, and from the gentiles, unto thee which now I send thee,

²⁵ When they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, "Well spake the holy ghost by Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers, ²⁶ saying, 'Go unto this people and say: with your ears shall ye hear, and shall not understand: and with your eyes shall ye see and shall not perceive. ²⁷ For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears were thick of hearing, and their eyes have they closed, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and should be converted, and I should heal them.' ²⁸ Be it known therefore unto you, that this salvation of God is sent to the gentiles, and they shall hear it."

⁸ Unto me, the least of all saints, is this grace given; that I should preach among the gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

⁷ Then the LORD said unto Moses, "Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, ⁸ have marred all: they are turned at once out of the way which I commanded them, and have made them a calf of molten metal, and have worshipped it and have offered thereto and have said, 'This is thy God thou Israel, which hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt.'" ⁹ And the LORD said unto Moses, "Behold, I see this people, that it is a stiffnecked people, ¹⁰ and now therefore suffer me that my wrath may wax hot upon them, and that I may consume them: and then will I make of thee a mighty people."

⁸ Now therefore, go thy way; and write them this before them in a table, and note it in a book: that it may finally remain and be kept still forever. ⁹ For it is an obstinate people, unfaithful children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD. ¹⁰ They dare say to the Prophets, "See not," and unto them that be clear of judgment, "Tell us of nothing for to come, but speak friendly words unto us, and preach us false things. ¹¹ Tread out of the way, go out of the path, turn the holy one of Israel from us."

⁸ Bring forth that people which is blind, yet hath eyes; which is deaf yet hath ears.

¹⁸ Yet men neither consider nor understand; because their eyes are stopped that they cannot see, and their hearts, that they can not perceive. ¹⁹ They ponder not in their minds, for they have neither knowledge nor understanding, to think thus, "I have burnt one piece in the fire; I have baked bread with the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh withal, and eaten it: shall I now of the residue make an abomination, and fall down before a rotten piece of wood?" ²⁰ The keeping of dust, and foolishness of heart hath turned them aside: so that none of them can have a free conscience to think, "Do not I err?"

¹ Then spake the LORD unto me, and said, "Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet have I no heart to this people. Drive them away, that they may go out of my sight. ² And if they say unto thee, 'Whither shall we go?' Then tell them, 'The LORD giveth you this answer: Some unto death, some to the sword, some to hunger, some into captivity.'

⁹ Then said he, "Call his name Loammi. For why? Ye are not my people, therefore will I not be yours.

¹⁴ And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which prophecy saith, 'With the ears ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and with the eyes ye shall see, and shall not perceive." ¹⁵ For this people's hearts are waxed gross. And their ears were dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their hearts, and should turn, that I might heal them.

¹² that when they see, they shall see, and not discern: and when they hear they shall hear, and not understand: lest at any time they should turn, and their sins should be forgiven them."

¹⁰ And he said, "Unto you is it given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God: but to others in similitudes, that when they see, they should not see, and when they hear they should not understand.

⁴⁰ "He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their hearts: that they should not see with their eyes, and understand with their hearts, and should be converted and I should heal them."

²⁶ saying, 'Go unto this people and say: with your ears shall ye hear, and shall not understand: and with your eyes shall ye see and shall not perceive. ²⁷ For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears were thick of hearing, and their eyes have they closed, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and should be converted, and I should heal them.'

⁸ according as it is written, "God hath given them the spirit of unquietness: eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, even unto this day."

³ But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that I may multiply my miracles and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

²⁷ But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let them go.

¹⁰ And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh. But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

¹⁷ And behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians that they may follow you. And I will get me honour upon Pharaoh and upon all his host, upon his chariots and upon his horsemen.

³⁰ But Sihon, the king of Heshbon, would not let us pass by him; for the LORD thy God had hardened his spirit and made his heart tough because he would deliver him into thy hands as it is come to pass this day.

¹⁵ "And Israel waxed fat, and kicked. Thou wast fat, thick and smooth. And he let God go, that made him; and despised the rock that saved him.

¹⁰ They are enclosed in their own fat, and their mouth speaketh proud things.

⁷⁰ Their heart is as fat as brawn, but my delight hath been in thy law.

²² Thus the LORD shall smite Egypt, and heal it again: and so shall they turn to the LORD, and he also shall have mercy upon them, and save them.

¹⁰ For the LORD shall give you a hard-sleeping spirit, and close your eyes. Your Prophets also, and heads which should see; them shall he cover.

¹⁷ O LORD wherefore hast thou led us out of thy way? Wherefore hast thou hardened our hearts, that we fear thee not? Be at one with us again, for thy servants' sake that are of the generation of thine heritage.

²¹ "Hear this, thou foolish and indiscreet people: ye have eyes, but ye see not; ears have ye, but ye hear not.

¹⁰ But unto whom shall I speak, whom shall I warn, that he may take heed? Their ears are so uncircumcised, that they may not hear. Behold, they take the word of God but for a scorn, and have no lust thereto.

⁶ Not to many nations which have divers speeches and hard languages, whose words thou understandest not. Nevertheless, if I sent thee to those people, they would follow thee: ⁷ But the house of Israel will not follow thee, for they will not follow me. Yea, all the house of Israel have stiff foreheads, and hard hearts. ⁸ Behold, therefore, I will make thy face prevail against their faces, and harden thy forehead against their foreheads; ⁹ so that thy forehead shall be harder than an Adamant or flint stone: that thou mayest fear them the less, and be less afraid of them, for they are a froward household." ¹⁰ He said moreover unto me, "Thou son of man, take diligent heed with thine ears, to the words that I speak unto thee, fasten them in thine heart: ¹¹ and go to the prisoners of thy people. Speak unto them, and say on this manner, 'Thus the LORD God hath spoken: Whether ye hear, or hear not.'"

¹¹ Nevertheless, they would not take heed, but turned their backs and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.

¹⁵ For this people's hearts are waxed gross. And their ears were dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their hearts, and should turn, that I might heal them.

¹⁹ And this is the condemnation: that light is come into the world, and the men have loved darkness more than light, because their deeds were evil. ²⁰ For every man that evil doeth, hateth the light: neither cometh to light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

¹⁹ Repent ye, therefore, and turn: that your sins may be done away when the time of refreshing cometh, which we shall have of the presence of the Lord,

²⁷ For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears were thick of hearing, and their eyes have they closed, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and should be converted, and I should heal them.'

¹⁶ to the one part are we the savor of death unto death; and unto the other part are we the savor of life unto life. And who is mete unto these things?

³¹ And I will make your cities desolate, and bring your sanctuaries unto nought, and will not smell the savours of your sweet odours.

¹⁰ O God, how long shall the adversary do this dishonour? How long shall the enemy blaspheme thy name? Forever?

⁵ LORD, how long wilt thou be angry? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire forever?

¹³ Turn thee again, O LORD, at the last, and be gracious unto thy servants.

³ LORD, how long shall the ungodly, how long shall the ungodly triumph?

⁷ Your land lieth waste, your cities are burnt up, your enemies devour your land, and ye must be fain to stand, and look upon it: and it is desolate, as it were with enemies in a battle.

²⁶ At that time shall their gates mourn and complain, and they shall sit as desolate folk upon the earth.

¹ Behold, the LORD shall waste and plague the world, he shall make the face of the earth desolate, and scatter abroad the inhabiters thereof. ² Then shall the priest be as the people, the master as the servant, the dame like the maid, the seller like the buyer, he that lendeth upon usury, like him that borroweth upon usury, the creditor as the debtor. ³ Yea miserably shall the world be wasted and clean destroyed. For the LORD hath so determined in himself. ⁴ The earth shall be heavy and decay: The face of the earth shall perish and fall away, the proud people of the world shall come to naught. ⁵ For the earth is corrupt of her indwellers. For why? They have offended the law, changed the ordinances, and broken the everlasting covenant. ⁶ Therefore hath the curse consumed the earth; and they that dwell therein are fallen into trespass. Wherefore the inhabiters of the earth are perished with drought, and those that remain shall be very few. ⁷ The sweet wine shall mourn, the grapes shall be weak, and all that have been merry in heart, shall sigh. ⁸ The mirth of tabrets shall be laid down, the cheer of the joyful shall cease, and the pleasure of lutes shall have an end: ⁹ there shall no more wine be drunk with mirth, the beer shall be bitter to them that drink it; ¹⁰ the wicked cities shall be broken down, all houses shall be shut that no man may come in. ¹¹ In the streets shall there be lift up a cry because of wine, all men's cheer shall vanish away, and all joy of the earth shall pass. ¹² Desolation shall remain in the cities, and the gates shall be smitten with destruction.

⁶⁴ And the LORD shall scatter thee among all nations from the one end of the world unto the other, and there thou shalt serve strange gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known: even wood and stone.

¹¹ And the rest of the people that were left in the city, and them that were fled to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the common people,

²¹ And the king of Babylon smote them and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. And so Judah was carried away out of all their land.

¹⁵ Again, thou increasest the people, O LORD, thou increasest the people. Thou shalt be praised and magnified in all the ends of the world.

²⁹ The whole land shall flee, for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen: they shall run into dens, into woods, and climb up the stony rocks. All the cities shall be void, and no man dwelling therein.

⁷ As for me, say I, I have forsaken mine own dwelling place, and left mine heritage. My life also that I love so well, have I given into the hands of mine enemies.

⁴ I will scatter them about also in all kingdoms and lands to be plagued, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for the things that he did in Jerusalem.

²⁸ This is the sum of the people whom Nebuchadnezzar led away captive. In the seventh year of his reign, he carried away of the Jews, three thousand and three and twenty. ²⁹ In the eighteenth year Nebuchadnezzar carried away from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty two persons. ³⁰ In the twenty third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan the chief Captain, took away seven hundred forty five Jews prisoners. The whole sum of all the prisoners is four thousand and six hundred.

²⁰ Wherefore wilt thou still forget us, and forsake us so long?

¹ I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For even I verily am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, and of the tribe of Benjamin; ² God hath not cast away his people which he knew before. Either know ye not what the scripture saith by the mouth of Elijah, how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,

¹⁵ For if the casting away of them, be the reconciling of the world: what shall the receiving of them be, but life again from death?

¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my voice."

² For they have taken the daughters of the same, and their sons, and have mixed the holy seed with the nations in the lands: and the hand of the rulers and lords of council hath been principal in this trespass."

⁷ "If a tree be cut down, there is some hope yet, that it will sprout and shoot forth the branches again; ⁸ For though a root be waxen old and dead in the ground, ⁹ yet when the stock getteth the scent of water, it will bud, and bring forth bows, like as when it was first planted.

⁹ And except the LORD of Hosts had left us a few alive, we should have been as Sodom, and like unto Gomorrah.

³ Then shall the remnant in Zion and the remnant at Jerusalem be called holy - namely, all such as are written among the living at Jerusalem -

²⁰ After that day shall the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped out of the house of Jacob, seek no more comfort at him that smote them, but shall comfort themselves with faithfulness and truth in the LORD, the holy one of Israel. ²¹ The remnant, yea and the Posterity of Jacob, shall convert unto God the mighty one. ²² For though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, yet shall but the remnant of them only convert unto him. Perfect is the judgment of him that floweth in righteousness,

⁸ Moreover, thus sayeth the LORD: like as when one would gather holy grapes, men say unto him, "Break it not off, for it is holy," even so will I do also for my servants' sakes, that I will not destroy them all. ⁹ But I will take a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah, one to take possession of my hill. My chosen shall possess these things, and my servants shall dwell there.

¹⁵ So did not the one, and yet had he an excellent spirit. What did then the one? He sought the seed promised of God. Therefore look well to your spirit, and let no man despise the wife of his youth.

²² Yea, and except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: But for the chosens' sake, those days shall be shortened.

²⁰ And except that the Lord had should shorten those days, no man should be saved. But for the elects' sake, which he hath chosen, he hath shortened those days.

¹ I am the true vine, and my father is a husbandman. ² Every branch that beareth not fruit in me, he will take away. And every branch that beareth fruit will he purge, that it may bring more fruit. ³ Now are ye clean, through the words which I have spoken unto you.

⁵ whose also are the fathers, and they of whom; as concerning the flesh; Christ came: which is God over all things, blessed forever. Amen.

⁵ Even so at this time is there a remnant left through the election of grace. ⁶ If it be of grace, then is it not of works. For then were grace no more grace. If it be by the deserving of works, then is it no more grace. For then were deserving no longer deserving.

¹⁶ For if one piece be holy, the whole heap is holy. And if the root be holy, the branches are holy also. ¹⁷ Though some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, art graft in among them, and made partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree; ¹⁸ boast not thyself against the branches. For if thou boast thyself, remember that thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. ¹⁹ Thou wilt say then, "The branches are broken off, that I might be graft in." ²⁰ Thou sayest well: because of unbelief they are broken off, and thou standest steadfast in faith. Be not high minded, but fear: ²¹ seeing that God spared not the natural branches, lest haply he also spare not thee. ²² Behold the kindness and rigorousness of God: on them which fell, rigorousness: but towards thee, kindness; if thou continue in his kindness. Or else thou shalt be hewn off, ²³ and they if they bide not still in unbelief shall be grafted in again. For God is of power to graft them in again. ²⁴ For if thou wast cut out of a natural wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature in a true olive tree: how much more shall the natural branches be graffed in their own olive tree again? ²⁵ I would not that this secret should be hid from you my brethren, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits: that partly blindness is happened in Israel, until the fullness of the gentiles be come in. ²⁶ And so all Israel shall be saved. As it is written, "There shall come out of Zion he that doth deliver, and shall turn away the ungodliness of Jacob. ²⁷ And this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins." ²⁸ As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are loved for the fathers' sake. ²⁹ For verily the gifts and calling of God are such, that it cannot repent him of them.

¹⁶ To Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, "in the seeds," as in many: But, "in thy seed," as in one, which is Christ. ¹⁷ This I say, that the law which began afterward, beyond four hundred and thirty years, doth not disannul the testament, that was confirmed afore of God unto Christ ward, to make the promise of none effect. ¹⁸ For if the inheritance come of the law, it cometh not of promise: but God gave it unto Abraham by promise. ¹⁹ Wherefore then serveth the law? The law was added because of transgression — till the seed came, to which the promise was made — and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

²⁸ Now is there no Jew, neither gentile, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither man nor woman: but ye are all one thing in Christ Jesus. ²⁹ If ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs by promise.
