Bible verses about "morning prayer" | Geneva

¹ There was a man in the lande of Vz called Iob, and this man was an vpright and iust man, one that feared God, and eschewed euill. ² And he had seue sonnes, and three daughters. ³ His substance also was seuen thousande sheepe, and three thousand camels, and fiue hundreth yoke of oxen, and fiue hundreth shee asses, and his family was very great, so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the East. ⁴ And his sonnes went and banketted in their houses, euery one his day, and sent, and called their three sisters to eate and to drinke with them. ⁵ And when the dayes of their banketting were gone about, Iob sent, and sanctified them, and rose vp early in the morning, and offred burnt offrings according to the nomber of them all. For Iob thought, It may be that my sonnes haue sinned, and blasphemed God in their hearts: thus did Iob euery day. ⁶ Nowe on a day when the children of God came and stoode before the Lord, Satan came also among them. ⁷ Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Whence commest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, saying, From compassing the earth to and from, and from walking in it. ⁸ And the Lord saide vnto Satan, Hast thou not considered my seruant Iob, how none is like him in the earth? an vpright and iust man, one that feareth God, and escheweth euill? ⁹ Then Satan answered the Lord, and sayde, Doeth Iob feare God for nought? ¹⁰ Hast thou not made an hedge about him and about his house, and about all that he hath on euery side? thou hast blessed the worke of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. ¹¹ But stretch out now thine hand and touch all that he hath, to see if he will not blaspheme thee to thy face. ¹² Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Lo, all that he hath is in thine hand: onely vpon himselfe shalt thou not stretch out thine hand. So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord. ¹³ And on a day, when his sonnes and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brothers house, ¹⁴ There came a messenger vnto Iob, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding in their places, ¹⁵ And the Shabeans came violently, and tooke them: yea, they haue slayne the seruants with the edge of the sworde: but I onely am escaped alone to tell thee. ¹⁶ And whiles he was yet speaking, another came, and sayde, The fire of God is fallen from the heauen, and hath burnt vp the sheepe and the seruants, and deuoured them: but I onely am escaped alone to tell thee. ¹⁷ And whiles he was yet speaking, another came, and sayd, The Caldeans set on three bands, and fell vpon the camels, and haue taken them, and haue slayne the seruantes with the edge of the sworde: but I onely am escaped alone to tell thee. ¹⁸ And whiles he was yet speaking, came an other, and sayd, Thy sonnes, and thy daughters were eating, and drinking wine in their eldest brothers house, ¹⁹ And behold, there came a great wind from beyonde the wildernesse, and smote the foure corners of the house, which fel vpon the children, and they are dead, and I onely am escaped alone to tell thee. ²⁰ Then Iob arose, and rent his garment, and shaued his head, and fel downe vpon the ground, and worshipped, ²¹ And sayd, Naked came I out of my mothers wombe, and naked shall I returne thither: the Lord hath giuen, and the Lord hath taken it: blessed be the Name of the Lord. ²² In all this did not Iob sinne, nor charge God foolishly.

¹ To him that excelleth upon Nehiloth. A Psalme of Dauid. Heare my wordes, O Lord: vnderstande my meditation. ² Hearken vnto the voyce of my crie, my King and my God: for vnto thee doe I pray. ³ Heare my voyce in the morning, O Lord: for in the morning will I direct me vnto thee, and I will waite. ⁴ For thou art not a God that loueth wickednes: neither shall euill dwell with thee. ⁵ The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: for thou hatest all them that worke iniquitie. ⁶ Thou shalt destroy them that speake lyes: the Lord will abhorre the bloodie man and deceitfull. ⁷ But I wil come into thine house in the multitude of thy mercie: and in thy feare will I worship toward thine holy Temple. ⁸ Leade me, O Lord, in thy righteousnes, because of mine enemies: make thy way plaine before my face. ⁹ For no constancie is in their mouth: within, they are very corruption: their throte is an open sepulchre, and they flatter with their tongue. ¹⁰ Destroy them, O God: let them fall from their counsels: cast them out for the multitude of their iniquities, because they haue rebelled against thee. ¹¹ And let all them that trust in thee, reioyce and triumph for euer, and couer thou them: and let them, that loue thy Name, reioyce in thee. ¹² For thou Lord wilt blesse the righteous, and with fauour wilt compasse him, as with a shielde.

⁷ But I wil come into thine house in the multitude of thy mercie: and in thy feare will I worship toward thine holy Temple.

¹ To him that excelleth. A Psalme of David, when the Prophet Nathan came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba. Have mercie vpon me, O God, according to thy louing kindnes: according to the multitude of thy compassions put away mine iniquities. ² Wash me throughly from mine iniquitie, and clense me from my sinne. ³ For I know mine iniquities, and my sinne is euer before me. ⁴ Against thee, against thee onely haue I sinned, and done euill in thy sight, that thou mayest be iust when thou speakest, and pure when thou iudgest. ⁵ Beholde, I was borne in iniquitie, and in sinne hath my mother conceiued me. ⁶ Beholde, thou louest trueth in the inwarde affections: therefore hast thou taught mee wisedome in the secret of mine heart. ⁷ Purge me with hyssope, and I shalbe cleane: wash me, and I shalbe whiter then snowe. ⁸ Make me to heare ioye and gladnes, that the bones, which thou hast broken, may reioyce. ⁹ Hide thy face from my sinnes, and put away all mine iniquities. ¹⁰ Create in mee a cleane heart, O God, and renue a right spirit within me. ¹¹ Cast mee not away from thy presence, and take not thine holy Spirit from me. ¹² Restore to me the ioy of thy saluation, and stablish me with thy free Spirit. ¹³ Then shall I teache thy wayes vnto the wicked, and sinners shalbe conuerted vnto thee. ¹⁴ Deliuer me from blood, O God, which art the God of my saluation, and my tongue shall sing ioyfully of thy righteousnes. ¹⁵ Open thou my lippes, O Lord, and my mouth shall shewe foorth thy praise. ¹⁶ For thou desirest no sacrifice, though I would giue it: thou delitest not in burnt offering. ¹⁷ The sacrifices of God are a contrite spirit: a contrite and a broken heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. ¹⁸ Bee fauourable vnto Zion for thy good pleasure: builde the walles of Ierusalem. ¹⁹ Then shalt thou accept ye sacrifices of righteousnes, euen the burnt offering and oblation: then shall they offer calues vpon thine altar.

³⁰ Againe if thou send forth thy spirit, they are created, and thou renuest the face of the earth.

²⁹ Iesus answered him, The first of all the commandements is, Heare, Israel, The Lord our God is the onely Lord.

⁷⁹ To giue light to them that sit in darknes, and in the shadow of death, and to guide our feete into the way of peace.

¹ In the beginning God created the heauen and the earth. ² And the earth was without forme and void, and darkenesse was vpon the deepe, and the Spirit of God mooued vpon the waters. ³ Then God said, Let there be light: And there was light. ⁴ And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated the light from the darkenes. ⁵ And God called the Light, Day, and the darkenes, he called Night. So the euening and the morning were the first day. ⁶ Againe God said, Let there be a firmament in the mids of the waters: and let it separate the waters from the waters. ⁷ Then God made the firmament, and separated the waters, which were vnder the firmament, from the waters which were aboue the firmament: and it was so. ⁸ And God called the firmament Heauen. So the Euening and the morning were the second day. ⁹ God said againe, Let the waters vnder the heauen be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appeare. and it was so. ¹⁰ And God called the dry land, Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters, Seas: and God saw that it was good. ¹¹ Then God said, Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seed, the fruitfull tree, which beareth fruite according to his kinde, which hath his seede in it selfe vpon the earth: and it was so. ¹² And the earth brought foorth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seede according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in it selfe according to his kinde: and God saw that it was good. ¹³ So the euening and the morning were the third day. ¹⁴ And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heauen, to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signes, and for seasons, and for dayes and yeeres. ¹⁵ And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heauen to giue light vpon the earth: and it was so. ¹⁶ God then made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesse light to rule the night: he made also the starres. ¹⁷ And God set them in the firmament of the heauen, to shine vpon the earth, ¹⁸ And to rule in the day, and in the night, and to separate the light from the darkenesse: and God saw that it was good. ¹⁹ So the euening and the morning were the fourth day. ²⁰ Afterward God said, Let the waters bring foorth in abundance euery creeping thing that hath life: and let the foule flie vpon the earth in the open firmament of the heauen. ²¹ Then God created the great whales, and euery thing liuing and mouing, which the waters brought foorth in abundance according to their kinde, and euery fethered foule according to his kinde: and God sawe that it was good. ²² Then God blessed them, saying, Bring foorth fruite and multiplie, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the foule multiplie in the earth. ²³ So the euening and the morning were the fifte day. ²⁴ Moreouer God said, Let the earth bring foorth the liuing thing according to his kinde, cattel, and that which creepeth, and the beast of the earth, according to his kinde. and it was so. ²⁵ And God made the beast of the earth according to his kinde, and the cattell according to his kinde, and euery creeping thing of the earth according to his kind: and God saw that it was good. ²⁶ Furthermore God said, Let vs make man in our image according to our likenes, and let them rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer the beastes, and ouer all the earth, and ouer euery thing that creepeth and moueth on the earth. ²⁷ Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female. ²⁸ And God blessed them, and God said to them, Bring forth fruite and multiplie, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer euery beast that moueth vpon the earth. ²⁹ And God said, Beholde, I haue giuen vnto you euery herbe bearing seede, which is vpon al the earth, and euery tree, wherein is the fruite of a tree bearing seede: that shall be to you for meate. ³⁰ Likewise to euery beast of the earth, and to euery foule of the heauen, and to euery thing that moueth vpon the earth, which hath life in it selfe, euery greene herbe shall be for meate. and it was so. ³¹ And God sawe all that he had made, and loe, it was very good. So the euening and the morning were the sixt day.

⁵ Thou shalt not be afraide of the feare of the night, nor of the arrowe that flyeth by day: ⁶ Nor of the pestilence that walketh in the darkenesse: nor of the plague that destroyeth at noone day. ⁷ A thousand shall fall at thy side, and tenne thousand at thy right hand, but it shall not come neere thee.

¹² Hast thou commanded the morning since thy dayes? hast thou caused the morning to knowe his place,

¹⁰⁵ NUN. Thy worde is a lanterne vnto my feete, and a light vnto my path.

¹ A Psalme of David. When he was in the wildernesse of Judah. O God, thou art my God, earely will I seeke thee: my soule thirsteth for thee: my flesh longeth greatly after thee in a barren and drye land without water. ² Thus I beholde thee as in the Sanctuarie, when I beholde thy power and thy glorie. ³ For thy louing kindnesse is better then life: therefore my lippes shall prayse thee. ⁴ Thus will I magnifie thee all my life, and lift vp mine hands in thy name. ⁵ My soule shalbe satisfied, as with marowe and fatnesse, and my mouth shall praise thee with ioyfull lippes, ⁶ When I remember thee on my bedde, and when I thinke vpon thee in the night watches. ⁷ Because thou hast bene mine helper, therefore vnder the shadow of thy wings wil I reioyce. ⁸ My soule cleaueth vnto thee: for thy right hand vpholdeth me. ⁹ Therefore they that seeke my soule to destroy it, they shall goe into the lowest partes of the earth. ¹⁰ They shall cast him downe with the edge of the sword, and they shall be a portion for foxes. ¹¹ But the King shall reioyce in God, and all that sweare by him shall reioyce in him: for the mouth of them that speake lyes, shall be stopped.

³⁵ And in the morning very early before day, Iesus arose and went out into a solitarie place, and there praied.

¹⁴ Fill vs with thy mercie in the morning: so shall we reioyce and be glad all our dayes.

³ Heare my voyce in the morning, O Lord: for in the morning will I direct me vnto thee, and I will waite.
