Bible verses about "organization" | MKJV

¹ In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. ² And the earth was without form and empty. And darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved on the face of the waters. ³ And God said, Let there be light. And there was light. ⁴ And God saw the light that it was good. And God divided between the light and the darkness. ⁵ And God called the light, Day. And He called the darkness, Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. ⁶ And God said, Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. ⁷ And God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so. ⁸ And God called the expanse, Heavens. And the evening and the morning were the second day. ⁹ And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear; 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 And God said, Let the earth bring forth tender sprouts (the herb seeding seed and the fruit tree producing fruit after its kind, whose seed is in itself) upon the earth; and it was so. ¹² And the earth brought forth tender sprouts, the herb yielding seed after its kind, and the tree producing fruit after its kind, whose seed was in itself. And God saw that it was good. ¹³ And the evening and the morning were the third day. ¹⁴ And God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to divide between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years. ¹⁵ And let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth. And it was so. ¹⁶ And God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day and the smaller light to rule the night, and the stars also. ¹⁷ And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth, ¹⁸ and to rule over the day and over the night; and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good. ¹⁹ And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. ²⁰ And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarmers having a living soul; and let birds fly over the earth on the face of the expanse of the heavens. ²¹ And God created great sea-animals, and every living soul that creeps with which the waters swarmed after their kind; and every winged fowl after its kind. And God saw that it was good. ²² And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters of the seas and let the fowl multiply in the earth. ²³ And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. ²⁴ And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creepers, and its beasts of the earth after its kind; and it was so. ²⁵ And God made the beasts of the earth after its kind, and cattle after their kind, and all creepers upon the earth after their kind. And God saw that it was good. ²⁶ And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over all the creepers creeping on the earth. ²⁷ And God created man in His image; in the image of God He created him. He created them male and female. ²⁸ And God blessed them. And God said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply and fill the earth, and subdue it. And have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the heavens, and all animals that move upon the earth. ²⁹ And God said, Behold! I have given you every herb seeding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree seeding seed; to you it shall be for food. ³⁰ And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to every creeper on the earth which has in it a living soul every green plant is for food; and it was so. ³¹ And God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

¹³ And on the next day it happened that Moses sat to judge the people. And the people stood by Moses from the morning to the evening. ¹⁴ And when Moses' father-in-law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this thing which you do to the people? Why do you sit alone by yourself, and all the people stand by you from morning to evening? ¹⁵ And Moses said to his father-in-law, Because the people come to me to inquire of God. ¹⁶ When they have a matter, they come to me. And I judge between one and another, and I make known the statutes of God and His Laws. ¹⁷ And Moses' father-in-law said to him, The thing that you do is not good. ¹⁸ You will surely wear away, both you and this people that is with you. For this thing is too heavy for you; you are not able to perform it alone. ¹⁹ Listen now to my voice; I will give you counsel, and God will be with you. You be for the people toward God, that you may bring the causes to God. ²⁰ And you shall teach them ordinances and laws, and shall make them know the way in which they must walk, and the work that they must do. ²¹ And you shall look out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating unjust gain. And place such over them to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. ²² And let them judge the people at all times. And it shall be, every great matter they shall bring to you, but every small matter they shall judge. And make it easier for yourself, and they shall bear with you. ²³ If you will do this thing, and God command you, then you shall be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace. ²⁴ And Moses listened to the voice of his father-in-law, and did all that he had said. ²⁵ And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. ²⁶ And they judged the people at all times. The hard causes they brought to Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves. ²⁷ And Moses let his father-in-law depart. And he went his way into his own land.

²⁸ For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he may have enough to finish it;

¹¹ As to diligence, not slothful, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;

⁶ Go to the ant, sluggard; consider her ways and be wise; ⁷ who, having no guide, overseer, or ruler, ⁸ provides her food in the summer and gathers her food in the harvest. ⁹ How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep? ¹⁰ A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down; ¹¹ so shall your poverty come as one who travels, and your need like an armed man.

² And Jehovah answered me and said, Write the vision, and make it plain on the tablets, that he who reads it may run.

⁴⁴ Therefore you also be ready, for in that hour you think not, the Son of Man comes. ⁴⁵ Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Lord has made ruler over His household, to give them food in due season? ⁴⁶ Blessed is that servant whom his Lord shall find him doing so when He comes. ⁴⁷ Truly I say to you that He shall make him ruler over all His goods. ⁴⁸ But if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My Lord delays His coming, ⁴⁹ and shall begin to strike his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunken, ⁵⁰ the Lord of that servant shall come in a day when he does not look for Him, and in an hour which he does not know. ⁵¹ And He shall cut him apart and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

⁵⁸ So that, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not without fruit in the Lord.

⁴ The soul of the sluggard desires and has nothing; but the soul of the hard worker shall be made fat.

⁴⁰ Let all things be done decently and in order.
