Let thy loving spirit lead me forth into the land of righteousness.

²⁴ Seeing then that I have called, and ye refused it: I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded it, ²⁵ but all my counsels have ye despised and set my corrections to naught. ²⁶ Therefore shall I also laugh in your destruction, and mock you, when the thing that ye fear cometh upon you: ²⁷ even when the thing that ye be afraid of, falleth in suddenly like a storm, and your misery like a tempest: yea, when trouble and heaviness cometh upon you. ²⁸ Then shall they call upon me, but I will not hear: they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me.

⁶ For it is the LORD that giveth wisdom, out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. ⁷ He preserveth the welfare of the righteous, and defendeth them that walk innocently; ⁸ He keepeth them in the right path, and preserveth the way of his saints. ⁹ Then shalt thou understand righteousness, judgment and equity - yea, and every good path.

⁹ They are all plain to such as will understand, and right to them that find knowledge.

¹⁹ The way of the slothful is full of thorns; but the street of the righteous is well cleansed.

¹⁰ The name of the LORD is a strong castle, the righteous flyeth unto it, and shall be saved.

²² Say not thou, "I will recompense evil"; but put thy trust in the LORD, and he shall defend thee.

⁵ O house of Jacob, come and let us walk in the light of the LORD.

¹⁵ And many shall stumble, fall, and be broken upon him: yea they shall be snared and taken."

¹⁷ Thus I wait upon the LORD that hath turned his face from the house of Jacob, and I look unto him.

² Behold, God is my salvation: I will be bold therefore and not fear. For the LORD God is my strength and my praise whereof I sing: and is become my saviour.

⁶ Cry and shout thou inhabiter of Zion, for great among you is the holy of Israel.

⁹ In that day shall it be said, "Lo, this is our God: we have waited for him, and he shall save us. This is the LORD in whom we have hoped: Let us rejoice, and delight in his salvation.

⁸ Therefore, LORD, we have a respect unto the way of thy judgments; thy name and thy remembrance rejoice the soul.

¹⁶ Lord, in trouble have they visited thee; they poured out their prayer while thy chastening was upon them.

²⁰ So go now my people into thy chamber, and shut the door to thee, and suffer now the twinkling of an eye, till the wrath be overpast.

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.

²⁰ And though the LORD giveth you the bread of adversity, and the water of trouble, thine instructor flyeth not far from thee; if thine eyes look unto thine instructor, ²¹ and thine ears hearken to his word that cryeth after thee and sayeth, "This is the way. Walk ye in it. Turn not aside; neither to the righthand nor to the left."

² He shall be unto men, as a defense for the wind, and as a refuge for the tempest, like as a river of water in a thirsty place, and the shadow of a great rock in a dry land.

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.

¹¹ I spake within myself, 'I shall never visit the LORD God in this life: I shall never see man among the dwellers of the world.

¹⁹ but the living, yea the living acknowledge thee, like as I do this day. The father telleth his children of thy faithfulness.

¹¹ He shall feed his flock like a herdsman. He shall gather the lambs together with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall kindly entreat those that bear young.

³¹ But unto them that have the LORD before their eyes, shall strength be increased, Eagles wings shall grow upon them; When they run, they shall not fall; and when they go, they shall not be weary."

¹¹ Behold, all they that resist thee, shall come to confusion and shame: and thine adversaries shall be destroyed and brought to naught. ¹² So that whoso seeketh after them, shall not find them. Thy destroyers shall perish, and so shall they that undertake to make battle against thee.

¹⁹ I have not spoken secretly, neither in dark places of the earth. It is not for naught, that I said unto the seed of Jacob, "Seek me." I am the LORD which, when I speak, declareth the thing that is righteous and true.

²⁴ saying, "Verily in the LORD is my righteousness and strength. To him shall men come: but all they that think scorn of him, shall be confounded."

³ Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all ye that remain yet of the household of Israel, whom I have borne from your mother's womb, and brought you up from your birth, till ye were grown: ⁴ I, I which shall bear you unto your last age, I have made you; I will also nourish you, bear you and save you.

¹⁵ Doth a wife forget the child of her womb, and the son who she hath born? And though she do forget, yet will not I forget thee.

¹ Thus sayeth the LORD: Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, that I sent unto her? Or who is the usurer, to whom I sold you? Behold, for your own offenses are ye sold: and because of your transgression, is your mother forsaken.

⁶ Lift up your eyes to heaven and behold the earth beneath. For heaven shall vanish away as smoke, and the earth shall wear away as a vesture, and the inhabiters thereof shall perish away after the same manner: but my salvation shall endure ever, and my righteousness shall not perish. ⁷ Hearken unto me ye that know righteousness, and so let the people that have my law in their hearts. Fear not the rebukes of man neither faint for their blasphemies. ⁸ For worms shall eat them as a garment, and moths shall devour them as it were wool. But my righteousness shall continue ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.

¹⁶ Behold, I make the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and he maketh a weapon after his handy work. I make also the waster to destroy: ¹⁷ but all the weapons that are made against thee, shall not prosper. And as for all tongues that shall resist thee in judgment, thou shalt overcome them, and condemn them. This is the heritage of the LORD's servants, and the righteousness that they shall have of me, sayeth the LORD.

⁶ Seek the LORD, while he may be found, and call upon him while he is nigh. 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.

² But your misdeeds have separated you from your God, and your sins hide his face from you, that he heareth you not.

¹ Up and receive light, Jerusalem: for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is up over thee. ² For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and a thick mist the nations. But the LORD shall rise as the sun over thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. ³ And the heathen shall walk in thy light, and the kings in the brightness that is risen over thee.

¹⁹ The Sun shall never be thy day light, and the light of the Moon shall never shine unto thee: but the LORD himself shall be thine everlasting light, and thy God shall be thy glory. ²⁰ Thy Sun shall never go down, and thy Moon shall not be taken away, for the LORD himself shall be thine everlasting light, and thy sorrowful days shall be rewarded thee.

¹⁰ And therefore I am joyful in the LORD, and my soul rejoiceth in my God. For he shall put upon me the garment of salvation, and cover me with the mantle of righteousness. He shall deck me like a bridegroom, and as a bride that hath her apparel upon her.

²⁷ For they say to a stock, 'Thou art my father,' and to a stone, 'Thou hast begotten me.' Yea, they have turned their back upon me, and not their face. But in the time of their trouble, when they say, 'Stand up and help us!' ²⁸ I shall answer them: Where are now thy gods, that thou hast made thee? Bid them stand up, and help thee in the time of need! For look how many cities thou hast, O Judah: so many gods hast thou also.

¹⁹ But I, as a meek lamb, was carried away to be slain: not knowing, that they had devised such a counsel against me saying, "We will destroy his meat with wood, and drive him out of the land of the living: that his name shall never be thought upon."

¹⁰ For why? I heard so many derisions and blasphemies, yea even of my own companions, and such as were conversant with me: which went about, to make me afraid, saying, "Upon him; let us go upon him, to fear him, and make him hold his tongue: that we may overcome him, and be avenged of him."

¹² Ye shall cry unto me, ye shall go and call upon me, and I shall hear you. ¹³ Ye shall seek me, and find me: Yea, if so be that ye seek me with your whole heart,

¹³ Ye shall seek me, and find me: Yea, if so be that ye seek me with your whole heart,

⁷ For thus sayeth the LORD, "Rejoice with gladness because of Jacob, cry unto the head of the Gentiles: speak out, sing, and say, 'The LORD shall deliver his people, the remnant of Israel, and make them whole.'

⁴⁰ And I will set up an everlasting covenant with them; Namely: that I will never cease to do them good, and that I will put my fear in their hearts, so that they shall not run away from me.

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.

²⁶ O how good is it, with stillness, to wait and tarry for the health of the LORD?

²⁰ Then will I cast thee down unto them, that descend into the pit, unto a people that hath been long dead, and set thee in a land that is beneath, like the old wilderness, with them which go down to their graves, so that no man shall dwell more in thee. And I will make thee to be no more in honor, in the land of the living.

⁴ Wherefore the princes and lords sought to pick out in Daniel some quarrel against the kingdom: yet could they find none occasion nor fault upon him. For why? He was so faithful, that there was no blame nor dishonesty found in him. ⁵ Then said these men, "We will get no quarrel against this Daniel, except it be in the law of his God."

³ and I turned me unto God the LORD, for to pray and make mine intercession, with fasting, sack cloth and ashes.

¹⁵ I will go, and return to my place, till they wax faint, and seek me.

⁷ Nevertheless, I will look up unto the LORD; I will patiently abide God my saviour: my God shall hear me. ⁸ O thou enemy of mine, rejoice not at my fall, for I shall get up again: and though I sit in darkness, yet the LORD is my light.

³ for the vision is yet far off for a time, but at the last it shall come to pass, and not fail. And though he tarry, yet wait thou for him, for in very deed he will come, and not be slack.

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.

¹⁴ Give thanks, O daughter Zion! Be joyful, O Israel! Rejoice and be glad from thy whole heart, O daughter Jerusalem! ¹⁵ For the LORD hath taken away thy punishment, and turned back thine enemies. The king of Israel, even the LORD himself is with thee: so that thou needest no more to fear any misfortune.

⁹ Rejoice thou greatly, O daughter Zion; be glad, O daughter Jerusalem. For lo, thy King cometh unto thee, even the righteous and Saviour: Lowly and simple is he, he rideth upon an ass, and upon the foal of an ass.

² But unto you that fear my name, shall the Son of righteousness arise, and health shall be under his wings: ye shall go forth, and multiply as the fat calves.

³³ But rather, seek ye first the kingdom of heaven, and the righteousness thereof; and all these things shall be ministered unto you.

⁷ "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: ⁸ For whosoever asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

²⁴ "Whosoever heareth of me these sayings, and doeth the same, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house on a rock: ²⁵ And abundance of rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that same house, and it fell not: because it was grounded on the rock.

²⁶ And he said unto them, "Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?" Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there followed a great calm.

²¹ The brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son: and the children shall arise against their fathers, and mothers, and shall put them to death, ²² and ye shall be hated of all men, for my name: but he that shall endureth unto the end, shall be saved.

³⁶ And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

¹⁶ Simon Peter answered, and said, "Thou art Christ, the son of the living God." ¹⁷ And Jesus answered, and said to him, "Happy art thou, Simon the son of Jonas, for flesh and blood hath not opened unto thee that, but my father which is in heaven. ¹⁸ And I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter. And upon this rock, I will build my congregation: and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

³⁷ Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest prophets, and stonest them which are sent to thee: how often would I have gathered thy children together, as the hen gathereth her chicks under her wings? But ye would not.

⁵⁹ The chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, for to put him to death, ⁶⁰ but found none: insomuch that when many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,

²⁵ And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon. And the same man was just and feared God, and longed for the consolation of Israel, and the holy ghost was in him.

³⁰ For mine eyes have seen the saviour sent from thee:

³⁷ And she had been a widow about four score and four years of age, which went never out of the temple, but served God there with fasting and prayer night and day. ³⁸ And the same came forth that same hour, and praised the Lord, and spake of him to all that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

⁴ as it is written in the book of the sayings of Isaiah the prophet, which sayeth, "The voice of a crier in wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. ⁵ Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low: And crooked things shall be made straight: and the rough ways shall be made smooth. ⁶ And all flesh shall see the saviour sent of God."

⁶ And all flesh shall see the saviour sent of God."

⁴² verily one is needful. Mary hath chosen her that good part, which shall not be taken away from her."

⁹ "And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you. Seek, and ye shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened unto you. ¹⁰ For every one that asketh, receiveth: and he that seeketh, findeth: and to him that knocketh shall it be opened.

²⁴ "Strive with yourselves to enter in at the strait gate: For many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

¹ He put forth a similitude unto them, signifying that men ought always to pray, and not to be weary,

³⁷ And when he was now come where he should go down from the Mount Olivet, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice, and to laud God with a loud voice, for all the miracles that they had seen, ³⁸ saying, "Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest."

²⁰ And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves perfect, to take him in his words, and to deliver him unto the power, and authority of the deputy.

¹ In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God: and the word was God. ² The same was in the beginning with God. ³ All things were made by it, and without it was made no thing, that was made. ⁴ In it was life; And the life was the light of men; ⁵ And the light shineth in the darkness, but the darkness comprehended it not.

⁹ That was a true light, which lighteneth all men that come into the world.

¹² Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He that followeth me shall not walk in darkness: but shall have the light of life."

³⁵ Jesus heard that they had excommunicated him: and as soon as he had found him he said unto him, "Dost thou believe on the son of God?"

³² Behold, the hour draweth nigh, and is already come, that ye shall be scattered every man his ways, and shall leave me alone. And yet am I not alone. For the father is with me.

³ Judas then after he had received a bond of men, and ministers of the high priests, and of the Pharisees, came thither with lanterns, and firebrands, and weapons. ⁴ Then Jesus, knowing all things that should come on him, went forth and said unto them, "Whom seek ye?" ⁵ They answered him, "Jesus of Nazareth." Jesus said unto them, "I am he." Judas also which betrayed him, stood with them. ⁶ But as soon as he had said unto them, "I am he," they went backwards and fell to the ground.

¹¹ Then sent they in men which said, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God," ¹² and they moved the people, and the elders, and the scribes: and they came upon him and caught him, and brought him to the council, ¹³ and brought forth false witnesses which said, "This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place and the law,

¹ And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,

¹¹ "And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme: and was yet more mad upon them, and persecuted them even unto strange cities.

¹⁵ And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came against us to Appius, and to the three taverns, and met us. When Paul saw them he thanked God, and waxed bold.

²⁵ But and if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience abide for it.

³¹ What shall we then say unto these things? if God be on our side: who can be against us?

³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of God? Shall tribulation? Or anguish? Or persecution, other hunger? Other nakedness? Other peril? Other sword? ³⁶ As it is written, "For thy sake are we killed all day long, and are counted as sheep appointed to be slain." ³⁷ Nevertheless, in all these things we overcome strongly through his help that loved us.

¹³ Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, and be strong.

⁹ Also we received an answer of death in ourselves, and that was done because we should not put our trust in ourselves, but in God, which raiseth the dead to life again - ¹⁰ and which delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver — on whom we trust, that yet hereafter he will deliver us,

¹⁸ But we all behold the glory of the Lord with his face open, and we are changed unto the same similitude, from glory to glory, even of the spirit of the Lord.

¹ Therefore seeing that we have such an office, even as mercy is come on us, we faint not:

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.

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. ¹⁰ And we always bear in our bodies the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus might appear in our bodies. ¹¹ For we which live, are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might appear in our mortal flesh. ¹² So then death worketh in us, and life in you. ¹³ Seeing then that we have the same spirit of faith, according as it is written — "I believed and therefore have I spoken" — we also believe, and therefore speak. ¹⁴ For we know that he which raised up the Lord Jesus, shall raise up us, also, by the means of Jesus, and shall set us with you;

¹⁶ Wherefore, we are not wearied: but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

⁶ Therefore, we are always of good cheer, and know well that as long as we are at home in the body we are absent from God. ⁷ For we walk in faith and see not. ⁸ Nevertheless we are of good comfort, and had rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

⁹ and he said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee. For my strength is made perfect through weakness." Very gladly therefore will I rejoice of my weakness, that the strength of Christ may dwell in me.

⁹ and he said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee. For my strength is made perfect through weakness." Very gladly therefore will I rejoice of my weakness, that the strength of Christ may dwell in me. ¹⁰ Therefore have I delectation in infirmities, in rebukes, in need, in persecutions, in anguish, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

⁸ For by grace are ye made safe through faith, and that, not of yourselves: For it is the gift of God,

¹⁶ that ye may be strengthened with might by his spirit in the inner man,

¹⁹ speaking unto yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord in your hearts, ²⁰ giving thanks always for all things unto God the father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ:

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

²⁸ and in nothing fearing your adversaries: which is to them a token of perdition, and to you a sign of salvation, and that of God.

¹³ Brethren, I count not myself that I have gotten it: but one thing I say: I forget that which is behind me, and stretch myself unto that which is before me;

¹³ I can do all things through the help of Christ, which strengtheneth me.

¹¹ strengthened with all might, through his glorious power, unto all patience, and long suffering, with joyfulness,

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

⁵ She that is a very widow, and friendless, putteth her trust in God, and continueth in supplication and prayer night and day:

⁵ But watch thou in all things, and suffer adversity, and do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thine office unto the utmost. ⁶ For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departing is at hand. ⁷ I have fought a good fight, and have fulfilled my course, and have kept the faith. ⁸ From henceforth is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord that is a righteous judge shall give me at that day: not to me only: but unto all them that love his coming.

¹⁶ At my first answering for myself, no man assisted me, but all forsook me. I pray God, that it may not be laid to their charges: ¹⁷ notwithstanding the Lord assisted me, and strengthed me, that by me the preaching should be fulfilled to the utmost and that all the gentiles should hear. And I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. ¹⁸ And the Lord shall deliver me from all evil doing, and shall keep me unto his heavenly kingdom. To whom be praise for ever and ever. Amen.

⁶ But without faith it is impossible to please him: For he that cometh to God, must believe that God is, and that he is a rewarder of them that seek him.

⁵ Let your conversation be without covetousness, and be content with that ye have already. For he verily said, "I will not fail thee, neither forsake thee." ⁶ That we may boldly say, "The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man doeth unto me."

¹⁵ For by him offer we the sacrifice of praise always to God: that is to say, the fruit of those lips, which confess his name.

⁵ and ye, as living stones, are made a spiritual house, and a holy priesthood, for to offer up spiritual sacrifice, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

¹⁴ Notwithstanding, happy are ye if ye suffer for righteousness' sake. Yea, and fear not though they seem terrible unto you, neither be troubled:

¹⁰ Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer. Behold, the devil shall cast of you into prison, to tempt you, and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be faithful unto the death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

⁹ and they sung a new song saying, "Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof, for thou wast killed, and hast redeemed us by thy blood, out of all kindreds, and tongues, and people, and nations,

¹⁰ and cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be ascribed to him that sitteth upon the seat of our God, and unto the lamb."

⁷ And there was great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon and the dragon fought and his angels, ⁸ and prevailed not: neither was their place found any more in heaven. ⁹ And the great dragon, that old serpent called the devil and Satan; Was cast out. Which deceiveth all the world. And he was cast into the earth, and his angels were cast out also. ¹⁰ And I heard a loud voice saying, "In heaven is now made salvation and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: For he is cast down which accused them before God day and night: ¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.

³ and they sang the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the lamb, saying,

²³ And the city hath no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to lighten it. For the brightness of God did light it: and the lamb was the light of it.

⁵ And there shall be no more night there and they need no candle, neither light of the sun: for the Lord God giveth them light, and they shall reign for evermore.
