¹⁶ Thus sayeth the LORD, "Go into the streets, consider and make inquisition for the old way: and if it be the good and right way, then go therein, that ye may find rest for your souls. But they say, 'We will not walk therein.'

²² Behold, God is of a mighty high power: Where is there such a guide and lawgiver as he?

¹ {A Psalm and song of the sons of Korah, to the Chanter upon Mahalath, to give thanks, an Instruction of Heman the Ezrahite} O LORD God my Savior, I have cried day and night before thee;

⁷ He led them forth by the right way, that they might go to the city where they dwelt.

²⁶ I acknowledged my ways, and thou heardest me; O teach me then thy statutes.

³³ {He} Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes, and I shall keep it unto the end.

⁶⁶ O learn me thy kindness, nurture and knowledge, for I believe thy commandments.

⁹⁷ {Mem} O LORD, what love have I unto thy law! All the day long is my study in it.

³⁴ Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, and giving attendance at the posts of my doors.

¹⁷ Let not thine heart be jealous to follow sinners; but keep thee still in the fear of the LORD all the day long:

¹⁸ Yet standeth the LORD waiting, that he may have mercy upon you, and lifteth himself up, that he may receive you to grace. For the LORD God is righteous. Happy are all they that wait for him.

⁸ There shall be foot paths and common streets: this shall be called the holy way. No unclean person shall go through it, for the LORD himself shall go with them that way, and the ignorant shall not err.

¹⁶ I will bring the blind into the street, that they know not: and lead them in to a foot path, that they are ignorant in. I shall make darkness light before them, and the thing that is crooked to be straight. These things will I do, and not forget them.

¹⁰ There shall neither hunger nor thirst, heat nor Sun hurt them. For he that favoureth them shall lead them, and give them drink of the spring wells.

¹³ Thy children shall all be taught of God, and I will give them plenteousness of peace.

⁹ They departed from hence in heaviness, but with joy will I bring them hither again. I will lead them by the rivers of water in a straight way, where they shall not stumble: For I will be Israel's father, and Ephraim shall be my firstborn.

³³ But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, sayeth the LORD: I will plant my law in the inward parts of them, and write it in their hearts, and will be their God, and they shall be my people. ³⁴ And from thenceforth shall no man teach his neighbour or his brother, and say, 'Know the LORD.' But they shall all know me, from the lowest unto the highest, sayeth the LORD. For I will forgive their misdeeds, and will never remember their sins anymore.

⁷ And shall not God avenge his elect, which cry night and day unto him? Yea though he defer them:

⁴⁵ It is written in the prophets, 'That they shall all be taught of God.' Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the father, cometh unto me:

³¹ Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, "If ye continue in my words, then are ye my very disciples: ³² and ye shall know the truth: And the truth shall make you free."

²⁶ But that comforter, which is the holy ghost — whom my father will send in my name — he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have told you.

¹³ Howbeit, when he is once come — I mean the spirit of truth — he will lead you into all truth. He shall not speak of himself: but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show you things to come.

¹⁴ for as many as are led by the spirit of God: they are the sons of God.

²⁰ But ye have not so learned Christ; ²¹ If so be ye have heard of him, and are taught in him, even as the truth is in Jesus:

²⁷ And the anointing which ye have received of him dwelleth in you. And ye need not that any man teach you: but as the anointing teacheth you all things, and is true, and is no lie: and as it taught you, even so bide therein.

¹⁷ For the lamb which is in the midst of the seat, shall feed them, and shall lead them unto fountains of living water, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes."

²⁷ and said, "Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham which ceaseth not to deal mercifully and truly with my master. For the LORD hath brought me the way to my master's brother's house."

⁹ And Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac: LORD, which saidest unto me, 'return unto thy country and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee.'

¹³ And thou carriedest with thy mercy this people which thou deliveredest, and broughtest them with thy strength unto thy holy habitation!

⁶ And when the LORD walked before him, he cried, "LORD, LORD God full of compassion and mercy, which art not lightly angry but abundant in mercy and truth,

⁴² And LORD God, turn not away the face of thine anointed; But remember the mercies promised to David thy servant."

¹⁹ yet thou forsookest them not in the wilderness, according to thy great mercy. And the cloudy pillar departed not from them in the daytime to lead them the way, neither the pillar of fire in the night season, to show them light in the way that they went.

¹¹ Withdraw not thou thy mercy from me, O LORD, but let thy loving-kindness and thy truth always preserve me.

¹³ But, LORD, I make my prayer unto thee in an acceptable time. Hear me, O God, in the multitude of thy mercy, even in the truth of thy salvation.

¹⁶ Hear me, O LORD, for thy loving-kindness is comfortable: turn thee unto me according to the multitude of thy mercies.

⁷ Will the LORD absent himself forever? Will he be no more intreated? ⁸ Is his mercy clean gone? Is his promise come utterly to an end for evermore? ⁹ Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Or, hath he shut up his loving-kindness in displeasure? Selah. ¹⁰ At the last, I came to this point, that I thought, "O why art thou so foolish? the righthand of the most highest can change all!" ¹¹ Therefore will I remember the works of the LORD, and call to mind thy wonders of old time. ¹² I will speak of all thy works, and my talking shall be of thy doings.

³ He hath remembered his mercy and truth toward the house of Israel: so that all the ends of the world see the salvation of our God.

⁴ Who saveth thy life from destruction, and crowneth thee with mercy, and loving-kindness?

¹⁷ But the merciful goodness of the LORD endureth for ever and ever upon them that fear him, and his righteousness upon their children's children;

¹ Praise the everlasting! Hallelujah! O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth for ever.

⁴⁵ He thought upon his covenant, and pitied them, according unto the multitude of his mercies;

¹ I give thanks unto the LORD, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth forever.

⁷⁷ O let thy loving mercies come unto me, that I may live; for thy law is my delight.

¹¹ And brought out Israel from among them! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹² With a mighty hand and stretched-out arm! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹³ Which divided the reed sea into parts! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹⁴ And made Israel to go through the midst of it! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹⁵ But as for Pharaoh and his host, he overthrew them in the reed sea! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹⁶ Who led his people through the wilderness! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹⁷ Which smote great kings! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹⁸ Yea, and slew mighty kings! For his mercy endureth forever. ¹⁹ Sihon, king of the Amorites! For his mercy endureth forever. ²⁰ And Og, the king of Bashan! For his mercy endureth forever. ²¹ And gave away their land for a heritage! For his mercy endureth forever. ²² Even for a heritage unto Israel his servant! For his mercy endureth forever. ²³ Who remembereth us, when we are in trouble! For his mercy endureth forever. ²⁴ And hath delivered us from our enemies! For his mercy endureth forever. ²⁵ Which giveth food unto all flesh! For his mercy endureth forever. ²⁶ O give thanks unto the God of heaven! For his mercy endureth forever.

⁷ Let the ungodly man forsake his ways and the unrighteous his imaginations, and turn again unto the LORD: so shall he be merciful unto him; and to our God, for he is ready to forgive.

¹⁵ Look down then from heaven, and behold the dwelling place of thy Sanctuary and thy glory. How is it that thy jealousy, thy strength, the multitude of thy mercies and thy loving-kindness, will not be entreated of us?

²⁰ Upon this complaint, I thought thus by myself: Is not Ephraim my dear son? Is he not the child, with whom I have had all mirth and pastime? For since the time that I first communed with him, I have him ever in remembrance: therefore my very heart driveth me unto him; gladly and lovingly will I have mercy upon him, sayeth the LORD.

¹¹ Shall the voice of gladness be heard again; the voice of the Bridegroom and of the bride; the voice of them that shall sing, 'Praise the LORD of Hosts, for he is loving and his mercy endureth forever,' and the voice of them that shall offer up gifts in the house of the LORD. For I will restore the captivity of this land, as it was afore, sayeth the LORD.

¹⁸ Where is there such a God as thou? That pardonest wickedness, and forgivest the offenses of the remnant of thine heritage? He keepeth not his wrath for ever. And why? His delight is to have compassion. ¹⁹ He shall turn again, and be merciful to us: he shall put down our wickednesses, and cast all our sins into the bottom of the sea. ²⁰ Thou shalt keep thy trust with Jacob, and thy mercy for Abraham, like as thou hast sworn unto our fathers long ago.

⁵⁰ And his mercy is always on them that fear him, throughout all generations.

⁵⁴ He remembereth mercy: and helpeth his servant Israel.

⁷¹ That we should be saved from our enemies: And from the hands of all that hate us: ⁷² To fulfill the mercy promised to our fathers; And to remember his holy covenant;

⁷⁸ Through the tender mercy of our God, whereby the day spring from on high hath visited us:

³ Blessed be God the father of our Lord Jesus the Christ, father of mercy, and the God of all comfort,

⁸ For God beareth me record how greatly I long after you all from the very heart-root in Jesus Christ.

¹ If there be among you any consolation in Christ, if there be any comfortable love, if there be any fellowship of the spirit, if there be any compassion of mercy:

¹² Now therefore as elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long suffering,

¹⁷ He, then, that hath the substance of the world, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his compassion from him: how dwelleth the love of God in him?

²⁶ For thou layest sharply to my charge, and punisheth me, for the sins of my youth.

¹¹ From his youth his bones are full of vice; but now shall it lie down with him in the earth.

⁴ Turn thee, O LORD, and deliver my soul; O save me for thy mercies' sake.

¹⁶ Show thy servant the light of thy countenance, and save me for thy mercy's sake.

¹ {To the chanter, a Psalm of David, when the Prophet Nathan came unto him, after he was gone in to Bathsheba} Have mercy upon me, O God, after thy great goodness; according to the multitude of thy mercies do away mine offences.

⁸ O remember not our old sins, but have mercy upon us, and that soon; for we are come to great misery.

¹⁴ Let the wickedness of his fathers be had in remembrance in the sight of LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be done away.

¹⁶ and that, because his mind was not to do good, but persecuted the poor helpless, and him that was vexed at the heart, to slay him.

²⁶ Help me, O LORD my God; O save me according to thy mercy,

¹²⁴ O deal with thy servant according unto thy loving mercy, and teach me thy statutes.

⁷ Hear me therefore, O my son, and depart not from the words of my mouth. ⁸ Keep thy way far from her, and come not nigh the doors of her house: ⁹ That thou give not thine honour unto another, and thy years to the cruel; ¹⁰ That other men be not filled with thy goods, and that thy labours come not in a strange house. ¹¹ Yea, that thou mourn not at the last, when thou hast spent thy body and goods, ¹² and then say, "Alas, why hated I nurture? Why did my heart despise correction? ¹³ Wherefore was not I obedient unto the voice of my teachers, and hearken not unto them that informed me? ¹⁴ I am come almost into all misfortune, in the midst of the multitude and congregation."

¹⁷ Behold, bitter as gall was my pensiveness: so sore longed I for health. And it was thy pleasure to deliver me from the filthy pit: for thou it is, O Lord, that hath cast all my sins behind thy back.

²⁵ Whereas I yet am even he only, that for mine own self's sake do away thine offenses, and forget thy sins: so that I will never think upon them.

⁹ Be not too sore displeased, O LORD, and keep not our offenses too long in thy remembrance: but consider that we all are thy people.

²⁵ So do we also sleep in our confusion, and shame covereth us: for we and our fathers from our youth up unto this day have sinned against the LORD our God, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God."

⁵ And a certain man was there, which had been diseased thirty eight years.

¹⁴ And after that, Jesus found him in the temple, and said unto him, "Behold, thou art made whole: see thou sin no more, lest a worse thing happen unto thee."

⁶ to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherewith he hath made us accepted in the beloved. ⁷ By whom we have redemption through his blood, that is to say, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace,

⁴ But God, which is rich in mercy through his great love wherewith he loved us, ⁵ even when we were dead by sin, hath quickened us together in Christ — for by grace are ye saved - ⁶ and hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly things through Christ Jesus. ⁷ For to show, in times to come, the exceeding riches of his grace, in kindness to us ward, in Christ Jesus. ⁸ For by grace are ye made safe through faith, and that, not of yourselves: For it is the gift of God,

¹² For I will be merciful over their unrighteousness, and on their sins and on their iniquities."

¹⁶ "This is the testament that I will make unto them after those days saith the Lord. And I will put my laws in their hearts, and in their minds I will write them, ¹⁷ and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more." ¹⁸ And where remission of these things is, there is no more offering for sin.

⁸ I will inform thee, and teach thee in the way wherein thou shalt go; and I will guide thee with mine eye.

¹⁵ that they may show how true the LORD my strength is, and that there is no unrighteousness in him.

⁶⁸ Thou art good and friendly; O teach me thy statutes.

²⁰ Wisdom crieth without and putteth forth her voice in the streets. ²¹ She calleth before the congregation in the open gates, and showeth her words through the city, saying, ²² "O ye children, how long will ye love childishness? How long will the scorners delight in scorning, and the unwise be enemies unto knowledge? ²³ O turn you unto my correction: lo, I will express my mind unto you, and make you understand my words.

¹ My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and keep my commandments by thee, ² that thou wilt incline thin ears unto wisdom; apply thine heart then to understanding. ³ For if thou criest after wisdom, and callest for knowledge; ⁴ If thou seekest after her as after money, and diggest for her as for treasures; ⁵ then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. ⁶ For it is the LORD that giveth wisdom, out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

⁴ "Whoso is ignorant, let him come hither!" And to the unwise she said, ⁵ "O come on your way, eat my bread, and drink my wine, which I have poured out for you. ⁶ Forsake ignorance, and ye shall live: and see that ye go in the way of understanding."

⁷ The path of equity wilt thou grant unto the just, O thou most righteous; thou shalt order the path of him that is righteous.

² and the multitude of the Gentiles shall haste them thither, saying, "Come, let us go up to the hill of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob: that he may teach us his way, and that we may walk in his paths." For the law shall come out of Zion, and the word of God from Jerusalem;

¹³ Go and learn, what that meaneth: 'I have pleasure in mercy, and not in offering.' For I am not come to call the righteous, but the sinners to repentance."

²⁹ Take my yoke on you, and learn of me; for I am meek, and lowly of heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. ³⁰ For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

¹³ If ye then which are evil, can give good gifts unto your children: How much more shall the father of heaven give a holy spirit to them, that desire it of him?"

⁴⁴ No man can come to me except the father, which hath sent me, draw him. And I will raise him up at the last day. ⁴⁵ It is written in the prophets, 'That they shall all be taught of God.' Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the father, cometh unto me:

⁶ For it is God that commanded the light to shine out of darkness, which hath shined in our hearts, for to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

¹⁷ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the father of glory, might give unto you the spirit of wisdom, and open to you the knowledge of himself, ¹⁸ and lighten the eyes of your minds, that ye might know what thing that hope is, whereunto he hath called you, and what the riches of his glorious inheritance is upon the saints,

⁵ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, which giveth to all men indifferently and casteth no man in the teeth; and it shall be given him.

²⁶ The poor shall eat, and be satisfied: they that seek after the LORD shall praise him. Your heart shall live for ever.

³ He quickeneth my soul, and bringeth me forth in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

⁸ I will inform thee, and teach thee in the way wherein thou shalt go; and I will guide thee with mine eye. ⁹ Be ye not like to horse and mule, which have no understanding, whose mouths must be held with bit and bridle, if they will not obey thee.

²⁴ Thou leadest me with thy counsel, and afterward receivest me unto glory.

⁹ yea, when God ariseth to give judgment, and to help all them that be in adversity upon earth. Selah.

³⁵ Lead me in the path of thy commandments, for therein is my desire.

¹⁰ Teach me to do the thing that pleaseth thee; for thou art my God. Let thy loving spirit lead me forth into the land of righteousness.

⁶ The LORD setteth up the meek, and bringeth the ungodly down to the ground.

⁴ For the LORD hath pleasure in his people, and helpeth the meek hearted.

⁵ Put thy trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. ⁶ In all thy ways have respect unto him, and he shall order thy goings.

⁴ But he shall judge the causes of the poor with righteousness, and shall rebuke with equity for the humble of the earth. And he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall slay the wicked.

¹ Behold now therefore, this is my servant whom I will keep to myself: mine elect; In whom my soul shall be pacified. I will give him my spirit, that he may show forth judgment and equity among the Gentiles. ² He shall not be an out-crier, nor a high-minded person. His voice shall not be heard in the streets. ³ A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: but faithfully and truly shall he give judgment.

¹ The spirit of the LORD God is with me, for the LORD hath anointed me, and sent me to preach good tidings unto the poor: that I might bind up the wounded hearts, that I might preach deliverance to the captive, and open the prison to them that are bound;

¹⁹ And I will give you one heart, and will plant a new spirit within your bowels. That stony heart will I take out of your body, and give you a fleshly heart: ²⁰ that ye may walk in my commandments, and keep mine ordinances, and do them. That ye may be my people, and I your God.

²⁷ And I will put my spirit in you, and will make that ye shall walk in mine ordinances and keep my laws and do them.

³ Yea, or the day of the LORD's sore displeasure come upon you. Seek the LORD, all ye meek hearted upon earth, ye that work after his judgment: seek righteousness, seek lowliness, that ye may be defended in the wrathful day of the LORD.

⁵ Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

⁶ Jesus said unto him, "I am the way, the truth and the life. And no man cometh unto the father, but by me.

² and desired of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.

¹⁰ "O full of all subtlety and deceitfulness, and child of the devil, and the enemy of all righteousness: thou ceasest not to pervert the straight ways of the Lord.

²³ Against such there is no law.

²⁰ by the new and living way, which he hath prepared for us, through the veil, that is to say by his flesh.

²¹ Wherefore lay apart all filthiness, all superfluity of maliciousness, and receive with meekness the word that is grafted in you, which is able to save your souls:

⁴ but let the hid man of the heart be uncorrupt, with a meek and a quiet spirit, which spirit is, before God, a thing much set by.

¹⁵ but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, and that with meekness and fear:

²⁴ and then Enoch lived a godly life, and was no more seen - for God took him away.

¹ When Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to him saying, "I am the almighty God: walk before me and be uncorrupt.

¹⁵ And he blessed Joseph saying, "God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, and the God which hath fed me all my life long unto this day; ¹⁶ And the angel which hath delivered me from all evil, bless these lads: that they may be called after my name, and after my father Abraham and Isaac, and that they may grow and multiply upon the earth."

²⁰ Thou camest but yesterday, and should I unquiet thee today to go with us? I will go whither I go. But return thou and carry again thy brethren. Mercy and truth be with thee."

²⁵ With the holy thou shalt be holy, and with a perfect man thou shalt be perfect. {TYNDALE: With the holy thou shalt be holy, and with the man that is uncorrupt, thou shalt be uncorrupt.} ²⁶ With the clean thou shalt be clean, and with the froward thou shalt be froward. {TYNDALE: With the pure thou shalt be pure, and with the froward thou shalt be froward also.}

⁴ Even he that hath clean hands, and a pure heart, and that hath not lift up his mind unto vanity, nor sworn to deceive his neighbour. ⁵ He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from God his saviour.

⁴ Reward them according to their deeds and wickedness of their own inventions. Recompense them after the works of their hands; pay them that they have deserved. ⁵ For they regard not in their mind the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands: therefore shall he break them down, and not build them up. ⁶ Praised be the LORD, for he hath heard the voice of my humble petitions.

⁴ For the word of the LORD is true, and all his works are faithful.

²³ The LORD ordereth a good man's going, and hath pleasure in his way. ²⁴ Though he fall, he shall not be hurt, for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.

²³ Whoso offereth me thanks and praise, he honoureth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation right, will I show the salvation of God."

³ He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproof of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and truth.

¹⁰ Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

¹⁴ Righteousness and equity are the habitation of thy seat; mercy and truth shall go before thy face.

¹⁴ Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him up out of all danger, for he hath known my name.

¹⁷ But the merciful goodness of the LORD endureth for ever and ever upon them that fear him, and his righteousness upon their children's children; ¹⁸ even upon such as keep his covenant, and think upon his commandments to do them.

⁷⁵ I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou of very faithfulness hast caused me to be troubled. ⁷⁶ O let thy merciful kindness be my comfort, according to the promise that thou hast made unto thy servant.

⁷ Though I walk in the midst of trouble, yet shalt thou refresh me; thou shalt stretch forth thine hand upon the furiousness of mine enemies, and thy righthand shall save me.

¹ O LORD, thou art my God, I will praise thee, and magnify thy name: For thou bringest marvelous things to pass, according to thine old counsels, truly and steadfastly.

² If thou goest through the water, I will be with thee, that the strong floods should not pluck thee away. When thou walkest in the fire, it shall not burn thee, and the flame shall not kindle upon thee.

¹ Thus sayeth the LORD: Keep equity, and do right, for my saving health shall come shortly, and my righteousness shall be opened. ² Blessed is the man that doth this, and the man's child which keepeth the same. He that taketh heed, that he unhallow not the Sabbath; that is, he that keepeth himself that he do no evil. ³ Then shall not the stranger, which cleaveth to the LORD, say, "Alas the LORD hath shut me clean out from his people." Neither shall the gelded man say, "Lo, I am a dried tree." ⁴ For thus sayeth the LORD, first unto the gelded that keepeth my Sabbath - namely, that holdeth greatly of the thing that pleaseth me, and keepeth my covenant - ⁵ Unto them will I give in my household and within my walls, a better heritage and name than if they had been called sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name that shall not perish. ⁶ Again, he sayeth unto the strangers that are disposed to stick to the LORD, to serve him, and to Love his name: That they shall be no bondman. And all they, which keep themselves, that they unhallow not the Sabbath - namely, that they fulfill my covenant -

⁹ Who is wise to understand these things and hath wit to perceive them? For the ways of the LORD are straight, and the righteous shall walk in them: but the wicked shall tumble in them.

¹⁴ And the word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw the glory of it, as the glory of the only begotten son of the father, which word was full of grace, and verity.

¹⁷ For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

³⁵ but in all people, he that feareth him and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

¹³ For before God they are not righteous which hear the law: but the doers of the law shall be justified.

²⁸ For we know well that all things work for the best unto them that love God, which also are called of purpose.

⁸ For in rebuking them he saith, "Behold the days will come, saith the Lord, and I will finish upon the house of Israel, and upon the house of Judah, a new testament; ⁹ not like the testament that I made with their fathers at that time, when I took them by the hands, to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they continued not in my testament, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. ¹⁰ For this is the testament that I will make with the house of Israel: After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws in their minds, and in their hearts, I will write them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. ¹¹ And they shall not teach, every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, 'know the Lord': For they shall know me, from the least to the most of them. ¹² For I will be merciful over their unrighteousness, and on their sins and on their iniquities."

¹⁴ Embrace peace with all men, and holiness; without the which, no man shall see the Lord.

¹¹ Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have known what end the Lord made. For the Lord is very pitiful, and merciful.

¹⁷ So now let the power of my LORD be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying, ¹⁸ 'The LORD is long yer he be angry, and full of mercy, and suffereth sin and trespass, and leaveth no man innocent, and visiteth the unrighteousness of the fathers upon the children, even upon the third and fourth generation.' ¹⁹ Be merciful I beseech ye therefore, unto the sin of this people according unto thy great mercy, and according as thou hast forgiven this people from Egypt even unto this place."

³ For thou art my stronghold and my castle: be thou also my guide, and lead me for thy name's sake.

²¹ But deal thou with me, O LORD God, according unto thy name; for sweet is thy mercy.

¹¹ Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake; and for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

⁹ Nevertheless, for my name's sake, I have withdrawn my wrath, and for mine honour's sake I have overseen thee, so that I have not rooted thee out.

⁹ But I would not do it, for my name's sake: that it should not be unhallowed before the Heathen, among whom they dwelt, and among whom I showed myself unto them, that I would bring them out of the land of Egypt.

²² 'Thus saith the LORD: I will sanctify my name that is defiled among the heathen. Which ye have defiled among them:

¹⁵ But the gift is not like as the sin. For if, through the sin of one, many be dead: much more plenteous, upon many, was the grace of God and gift by grace: which grace was given by one man, Jesus Christ.

²⁰ But the law, in the meantime, entered in that sin should increase. Neverthelater, where abundance of sin was, there was more plenteousness of grace. ²¹ That as sin had reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life, by the help of Jesus Christ.

¹² Babes, I write unto you how that your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.

²³ The LORD ordereth a good man's going, and hath pleasure in his way.

¹⁰ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do thereafter. The praise of it endureth forever.

⁷ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

⁵ then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

³³ The fear of the LORD is the right science of wisdom; and lowliness goeth before honour.

⁶ With loving mercy and faithfulness, sins be forgiven; and whoso searcheth the LORD eschewth evil.

¹³ Let us hear the conclusion of all things: Fear God, and keep his commandments, for that toucheth all men;

¹⁰ Therefore, whoso feareth the LORD among you, let him hear the voice of his servant. Who so walketh in darkness, and no light shineth upon him, let him trust in the LORD and hold him by his God.

²⁰ For every man that evil doeth, hateth the light: neither cometh to light, lest his deeds should be reproved. ²¹ But he that doth truth, cometh to the light, that his deeds might be known, how that they are wrought in God."

¹⁷ If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God: or whether I speak of myself.

² a devout man, and one that feared God with all his household, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed God always.

²² And they said unto him, "Cornelius the captain, a just man and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the people of the Jews, was warned by a holy angel, to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee."

¹⁴ he shall tell thee words, whereby both thou and all thine house shall be saved.'

²⁶ Ye men and brethren, children of the generation off Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is this word of salvation sent.

¹⁰ and in all deceivableness of unrighteousness, among them that perish: because they received not the love of the truth, that they might have been saved. ¹¹ And therefore God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe lies: ¹² that all they might be damned which believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

⁷ Moreover, I will make my covenant between me, and thee, and thy seed after thee; in their times to be an everlasting testament, so that I will be God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. ⁸ And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger: even all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession, and will be their God." ⁹ And God said unto Abraham, "See thou keep my covenant, both thou and thy seed after thee in their times. ¹⁰ This is my covenant which ye shall keep between me and you and thy seed after thee: that ye circumcise all your men children.

¹² Unto Benjamin he said, "The LORD's darling shall dwell in safety by him and keep himself in the haven by him continually, and shall dwell between his shoulders."

²⁶ There is none like unto the God of Israel: he that sitteth upon heaven shall be thine help, whose glory is in the clouds: ²⁷ that is the dwelling place of God from the beginning, and from under the arms of the world. He hath cast out thine enemies before thee and said, 'Destroy.' ²⁸ And Israel shall dwell in safety alone. And the eyes of Jacob shall look upon a land of corn and wine. Moreover, his heaven shall drop with dew. ²⁹ Happy art thou Israel: who is like unto thee? A people that art saved by the LORD; thy shield, and helper, and sword of thy glory. And thine enemies shall hide themselves from thee, and thou shalt walk upon their high hills."

¹⁹ O how plentiful is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, and that thou hast prepared for them that put their trust in thee, even before the sons of men!

⁸ They shall be satisfied with the plenteousness of thy house, and thou shalt give them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

¹¹ But the meek spirited shall possess the earth, and shall be refreshed in the multitude of peace.

²² Such as are blessed of God shall possess the land; and they that are cursed of him shall be rooted out.

²⁶ The righteous is ever merciful, and lendeth gently; therefore shall his seed be blessed.

²⁹ The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein forever.

⁵ My soul is satisfied, even as it were with marrow and fatness, when my mouth praiseth thee with joyful lips.

³⁶ The seed of his servants shall inherit it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

² His seed shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the faithful shall be blessed.

³³ But who so hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and have enough without any fear of evil."

²³ The fear of the LORD preserveth the life; yea it giveth plenteousness, without the visitation of any plague.

⁷ Whoso leadeth a godly and an innocent life; happy shall his children be whom he leaveth behind him.

²⁵ He that feareth men, shall have a fall; but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall come to honour.

²³ My chosen shall live long, they shall not labour in vain, nor beget with trouble: for they are the high, blessed seed of the LORD, and their fruits with them.

¹⁰ Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her. Be joyful with her, all ye that mourned for her. ¹¹ For ye shall suck comfort out of her breasts, and be satisfied. Ye shall taste, and have delight in the plenteousness of her power. ¹² For thus sayeth the LORD: behold, I will let peace into her, like a water flood, and the might of the Heathen like a flowing stream. Then shall ye suck, ye shall be born upon her sides, and be joyful upon her knees. ¹³ For like as a child is comforted of his mother, so shall I comfort you, and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. ¹⁴ And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like a herb. Thus shall the hand of the LORD be known among his servants, and his indignation among his enemies.

¹² And they shall come, and rejoice upon the hill of Zion, and shall have plenteousness of goods, which the LORD shall give them: Namely, wheat, wine, oil, young sheep and calves. And their conscience shall be as a well-watered garden, for they shall no more be hungry. ¹³ Then shall the maid rejoice in the dance, yea both young and old folks. For I will turn their sorrow into gladness, and will comfort them and make them joyful, even from their hearts. ¹⁴ I will pour plenteousness upon the hearts of the priests, and my people shall be satisfied with good things, sayeth the LORD."

³⁹ And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all the days of their life, that they and their children after them may prosper.

²⁴ "Thou son of man, these that dwell in the wasted land of Israel say, 'Abraham was but one man, and he had the land in possession: now are we many, and the land is given us to possess also.' ²⁵ And therefore tell them, 'Thus sayeth the LORD: In the blood have ye eaten, your eyes have ye lift up to Idols, and have shed blood: shall ye then have the land in possession? ²⁶ Ye lean upon your swords, ye work abominations, every one defileth his neighbour's wife: and shall ye then possess the land?'

²⁵ Moreover, I will make a covenant of peace with them, and drive all evil beasts out of the land: so that they may dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. ²⁶ Good fortune and prosperity will I give them, and unto all that be round about my hill. A prosperous shower and rain will I send them in due season, ²⁷ that the trees in the wood may bring forth their fruits, and the ground her increase. They shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD: which have broken their yoke, and delivered them out of the hands of those that held them in subjection. ²⁸ They shall no more be spoiled of the Heathen, nor devoured with the beasts of the land: but safely shall they dwell, and no man shall fray them.

¹⁷ for the LORD thy God is with thee. It is he that hath power to save: he hath a special pleasure in thee, and a marvelous love toward thee: yea he rejoiceth over thee with gladness."

¹⁷ O how prosperous and goodly a thing shall that be: The corn shall make the young men cheerful, and the new wine the maidens.

²⁸ Come unto me all ye that labor, and are laden, and I will ease you. ²⁹ Take my yoke on you, and learn of me; for I am meek, and lowly of heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

³⁹ "For the promise was made unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar, even as many as the Lord God shall call."

¹⁹ My God fulfill all your needs through his glorious riches in Jesus Christ.

¹⁰ If any man long after life, and loveth to see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips, that they speak not guile:

¹³ Nevertheless, we look for a new heaven, and a new earth, according to his promise, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

¹³ The servant born in thy house, and he also that is bought with money, must needs be circumcised, that my covenant may be in your flesh, for an everlasting bond.

¹⁷ And the LORD said, "Can I hide from Abraham that thing which I am about to do, ¹⁸ seeing that Abraham shall be a great and a mighty people, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? ¹⁹ For I know him that he will command his children and his household after him, that they keep the way of the LORD, to do after right and conscience, that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that he hath promised him."

¹³ And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to do, even ten verses and wrote them in two tables of stone.

³² for the LORD abhorreth the froward, but his secret is among the righteous.

¹⁸ Tell the king and the rulers, "Humble yourselves, set you down low, for the crown of your glory shall fall from your head."

³¹ Behold, the days come, sayeth the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: ³² not after the covenant that I made with their fathers, when I took them by the hand, and led them out of the land of Egypt: which covenant they brake, wherefore I punished them sore, sayeth the LORD:

¹¹ He answered, and said unto them, "It is given unto you to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. ¹² For whosoever hath, to him shall be given: and he shall have abundance. But whosoever hath not: from him shall be taken away even that same that he hath.

¹⁷ which is the spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive; because the world seeth him not, neither knoweth him. But ye know him. For he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

²¹ He that hath my commandments and keepeth them, the same is he that loveth me: and he shall be loved of my father, and I will love him, and will show mine own self unto him." ²² Judas said unto him — not Judas Iscariot - "Lord what is the cause that thou wilt show thyself unto us, and not unto the world?" ²³ Jesus answered, and said unto him, "If a man love me and will keep my sayings, my father also will love him, and we will come unto him, and will dwell with him.

¹⁵ Henceforth, call I you not servants: For the servant knoweth not what his Lord doeth. But you have I called friends: For all things that I have heard of my father, I have opened to you.

⁶ "I have declared thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy sayings.

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."

¹⁴ For the natural man perceiveth not the things of the spirit of God, for they are but foolishness unto him: Neither can he perceive them, because he is spiritually examined.

⁹ And hath opened unto us the mystery of his will according to his pleasure, and purposed

¹⁸ and lighten the eyes of your minds, that ye might know what thing that hope is, whereunto he hath called you, and what the riches of his glorious inheritance is upon the saints,

³ For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

¹⁷ Let him that hath ears hear what the spirit sayth unto the congregations: To him that overcometh will I give to eat Manna that is hid, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth, saving he that receiveth it.'

⁴ Draw me out of the net that they have laid privily for me, for thou art my strength.

¹ {A song of the stairs} I lift up mine eyes unto the hills; from whence cometh my help? ² My help cometh even from the LORD which hath made heaven and earth.

⁷ Our soul is escaped, even as a bird out of the snare of the fowler; the snare is broken and we are delivered. ⁸ Our help standeth in the name of the LORD, which hath made heaven and earth.

⁸ But mine eyes look unto thee, O LORD God; in thee is my trust. O cast not out my soul.

²⁶ For among my people are found wicked persons, that privily lay snares and wait for me, to take them and destroy them.

²⁵ and one that can suffer the evil in meekness, and can inform them that resist — if that God at any time will give them repentance for to know the truth - ²⁶ that they may come to themselves again out of the snare of the devil, which are now taken of him at his will.

¹ {To the chanter, upon the rose of witness, Michtam of David, for to teach: when he fought against Mesopotamia, and Syria of Zoba: and when Joab turned back, and slew twelve thousand Edomites in the valley of Salt} O God, thou hast cast us out and scattered us abroad; thou that hast been so sore displeased at us, comfort us again.

¹⁴ Take me out of the mire, that I sink not; Oh let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters. ¹⁵ Let not the water-flood drown me, neither let the deep swallow me up; and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me. ¹⁶ Hear me, O LORD, for thy loving-kindness is comfortable: turn thee unto me according to the multitude of thy mercies. ¹⁷ Hide not thy face from thy servant, for I am in trouble; O haste thee, and hear me. ¹⁸ Draw nigh unto my soul, and save it; O deliver me, because of mine enemies. ¹⁹ Thou knowest my reproof, and my shame and my dishonor: mine adversaries are all in thy sight. ²⁰ Thy rebuke breaketh my heart, and maketh me heavy. I look for some to have pity upon me, but there is no man; and for some to comfort me, but I find none.

¹⁶ O turn thee then unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and help the son of thine handmaid.

¹⁵ I am in misery, and like unto him that is at the point to die; even from my youth up, thy terrors have I suffered with a troubled mind. ¹⁶ Thy wrathful displeasure goeth over me; and the fear of thee hath undone me. ¹⁷ They came round about me daily like water, and compassed me together on every side. ¹⁸ My lovers and friends hast thou put away from me, and hid mine acquaintance out of my sight.

⁴ Therefore is my spirit vexed within me, and my heart within me is desolate.

¹⁷ Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his intercession. O let thy face shine over thy Sanctuary, that lieth waste.

¹⁹ He shall turn again, and be merciful to us: he shall put down our wickednesses, and cast all our sins into the bottom of the sea.

³³ And when the sixth hour was come, darkness arose over all the earth, until the ninth hour. ³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabacthani," which is, if it be interpreted, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" ³⁵ And some of them that stood by when they heard that said, "Behold, he calleth for Elijah."

¹⁹ Great are the troubles of the righteous, but the LORD delivereth him out of all.

¹ {To the Chanter, To Bring Remembrance} Put me not to rebuke, O LORD, in thy anger; O chasten me not in thy heavy displeasure. ² For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore. ³ There is no health in my flesh, because of thy displeasure; neither is there any rest in my bones, by reason of my sin. ⁴ For my wickednesses are gone over my head, and are like a sore burden, too heavy for me to bear. ⁵ My wounds stink, and are corrupt, through my foolishness. ⁶ I am brought into so great trouble and misery, that I go mourning all the day long. ⁷ For my loins are filled with a sore disease, and there is no whole part in my body. ⁸ I am feeble and sore smitten, I roar for the very disquietness of my heart.

⁷ One deep calleth another with the voice of thy water-pipes, all thy waves and water floods are gone over me.

² In the time of my trouble I sought the LORD, I held up mine hands to him in the night season, for my soul refused all other comfort. ³ When I was in heaviness, I thought upon God: when my heart was vexed, then did I speak. Selah. ⁴ Thou heldest mine eyes waking, I was so feeble, that I could not speak.

⁶ So they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

¹⁷ For the fig trees shall not be green, and the vines shall bear no fruit. The labour of the olive shall be but lost, and the land shall bring no corn: the sheep shall be taken out of the fold, and there shall be no cattle in the stalls. ¹⁸ But as for me, I will be glad in the LORD, and will rejoice in God my Saviour. ¹⁹ The LORD God is my strength, he shall make my feet as the feet of harts: and he which giveth the victory, shall bring me to my high places, singing upon my psalms.

¹¹ Even unto this day we hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted with fists, and have no certain dwelling place, ¹² and labour working with our own hands. We are reviled, and yet we bless. We are persecuted, and suffer it. ¹³ We are evil spoken of, and we pray. We are made as it were the filthiness of the world, the offscouring of all things, even unto this time.

⁸ We are troubled on every side, yet are we not without shift. We are in poverty: but not utterly without somewhat. ⁹ We are persecuted: but are not forsaken. We are cast down: nevertheless we perish not.

¹¹ and vowed a vow and said, "LORD of Hosts, if thou wilt look on the wretchedness of thine handmaid and shalt remember me and not forget thine handmaid, and shalt give unto thine handmaid a man child I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life and there shall neither razor or shears come upon his head."
