  Isaiah 66:10-24 Genesis 49:33-50:26 Proverbs 31:8-31

  God bless!

  Isaiah 66
  
    10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her:
  rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:
    11 That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations;
  that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
    12 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river,
  and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye
  shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
    13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will 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 an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his
  servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.
    15 For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a
  whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
    16 For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the
  slain of the LORD shall be many.
    17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind
  one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the
  mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.
    18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will
  gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
    19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of
  them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal,
  and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have
  seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
    20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the LORD out
  of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules,
  and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the LORD, as the
  children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the
  LORD.
    21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the LORD.
    22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain
  before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
    23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one
  sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.
    24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have
  transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire
  be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
  
  Genesis 49
  
    33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his
  feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people.
  
  Genesis 50
  
    1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.
    2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and
  the physicians embalmed Israel.
    3 And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of
  those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten
  days.
    4 And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of
  Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in
  the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
    5 My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged
  for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go
  up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again.
    6 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee
  swear.
    7 And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the
  servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of
  Egypt,
    8 And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father's house: only
  their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of
  Goshen.
    9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very
  great company.
    10 And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan, and
  there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a
  mourning for his father seven days.
    11 And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in
  the floor of Atad, they said, This is a grievous mourning to the Egyptians:
  wherefore the name of it was called Abelmizraim, which is beyond Jordan.
    12 And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them:
    13 For his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the
  cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a
  possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.
    14 And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up
  with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
    15 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said,
  Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil
  which we did unto him.
    16 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command
  before he died, saying,
    17 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy
  brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee,
  forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept
  when they spake unto him.
    18 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said,
  Behold, we be thy servants.
    19 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?
    20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to
  bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
    21 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And
  he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
    22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and Joseph lived an
  hundred and ten years.
    23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: the children
  also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph's knees.
    24 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you,
  and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to
  Isaac, and to Jacob.
    25 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely
  visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.
    26 So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him,
  and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
  
  Proverbs 31
  
    8 Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to
  destruction.
    9 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and
  needy.
    10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
    11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have
  no need of spoil.
    12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
    13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
    14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
    15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household,
  and a portion to her maidens.
    16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she
  planteth a vineyard.
    17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
    18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by
  night.
    19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
    20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands
  to the needy.
    21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are
  clothed with scarlet.
    22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and
  purple.
    23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the
  land.
    24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the
  merchant.
    25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to
  come.
    26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of
  kindness.
    27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of
  idleness.
    28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he
  praiseth her.
    29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
    30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the
  LORD, she shall be praised.
    31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in
  the gates.

  God bless!

  1 Peter 5
  
    6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt
  you in due time:
    7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
    8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion,
  walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
    9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are
  accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
    10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by
  Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish,
  strengthen, settle you.
    11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
    12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written
  briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein
  ye stand.
    13 The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you;
  and so doth Marcus my son.
    14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that
  are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
  
  Luke 10
  
    16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me;
  and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
    17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are
  subject unto us through thy name.
    18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
    19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over
  all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
    20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto
  you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
    21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father,
  Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and
  prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed
  good in thy sight.

  God bless!

  Isaiah 58
  
    1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people
  their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
    2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did
  righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the
  ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.
    3 Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? wherefore have we
  afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your
  fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labours.
    4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of
  wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard
  on high.
    5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul?
  is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes
  under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
    6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness,
  to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break
  every yoke?
    7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor
  that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him;
  and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
    8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall
  spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of
  the LORD shall be thy rereward.
    9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he
  shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the
  putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;
    10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted
  soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noon
  day:
    11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in
  drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and
  like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
  
  Genesis 43
  
    26 And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their
  hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
    27 And he asked them of their welfare, and said, Is your father well, the old
  man of whom ye spake? Is he yet alive?
    28 And they answered, Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet
  alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance.
    29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son,
  and said, Is this your younger brother, of whom ye spake unto me? And he said,
  God be gracious unto thee, my son.
    30 And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon his brother: and he
  sought where to weep; and he entered into his chamber, and wept there.
    31 And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set
  on bread.
  
  Genesis 45
  
    1 Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him;
  and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with
  him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren.
    2 And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard.
    3 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live?
  And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.
    4 And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they
  came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
    5 Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me
  hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life.
    6 For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are
  five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor harvest.
    7 And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to
  save your lives by a great deliverance.
    8 So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a
  father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the
  land of Egypt.
    9 Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son
  Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not:
    10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto
  me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and
  thy herds, and all that thou hast:
    11 And there will I nourish thee; for yet there are five years of famine;
  lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.
    12 And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it
  is my mouth that speaketh unto you.
    13 And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye
  have seen; and ye shall haste and bring down my father hither.
    14 And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept
  upon his neck.
    15 Moreover he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them: and after that
  his brethren talked with him.
    16 And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's
  brethren are come: and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
  
  Proverbs 21
  
    23 Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
    24 Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
    25 The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
    26 He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and
  spareth not.
    27 The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he
  bringeth it with a wicked mind?
    28 A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh
  constantly.
    29 A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his
  way.
    30 There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
    31 The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the
  LORD.
  
  Proverbs 22
  
    1 A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour
  rather than silver and gold.
    2 The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all.
    3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass
  on, and are punished.
    4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.

  Isaiah 49:6-10 Genesis 31:3-16 Proverbs 21:3-21

  God bless!

  Isaiah 49
  
    6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise
  up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also
  give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto
  the end of the earth.
    7 Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom
  man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings
  shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of the LORD that is
  faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.
    8 Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day
  of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a
  covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the
  desolate heritages;
    9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in
  darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures
  shall be in all high places.
    10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite
  them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of
  water shall he guide them.
  
  Genesis 31
  
    3 And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers, and to
  thy kindred; and I will be with thee.
    4 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,
    5 And said unto them, I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward
  me as before; but the God of my father hath been with me.
    6 And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
    7 And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times; but God
  suffered him not to hurt me.
    8 If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bare
  speckled: and if he said thus, The ringstraked shall be thy hire; then bare all
  the cattle ringstraked.
    9 Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
    10 And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted
  up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which leaped upon the
  cattle were ringstraked, speckled, and grisled.
    11 And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said,
  Here am I.
    12 And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the rams which leap upon
  the cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and grisled: for I have seen all that
  Laban doeth unto thee.
    13 I am the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou
  vowedst a vow unto me: now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto
  the land of thy kindred.
    14 And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion
  or inheritance for us in our father's house?
    15 Are we not counted of him strangers? for he hath sold us, and hath quite
  devoured also our money.
    16 For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and
  our children's: now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.
  
  Proverbs 21
  
    3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
    4 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
    5 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one
  that is hasty only to want.
    6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of
  them that seek death.
    7 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do
  judgment.
    8 The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is
  right.
    9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling
  woman in a wide house.
    10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in
  his eyes.
    11 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise
  is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
    12 The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God
  overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.
    13 Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself,
  but shall not be heard.
    14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.
    15 It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the
  workers of iniquity.
    16 The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the
  congregation of the dead.
    17 He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil
  shall not be rich.
    18 The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for
  the upright.
    19 It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an
  angry woman.
    20 There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a
  foolish man spendeth it up.
    21 He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life,
  righteousness, and honour.

    18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as

  hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
    3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be

  and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the LORD, and my work with my God.
  
  Genesis 27
  
    1 And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so
  that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My
  son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.
    2 And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
    3 Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and
  go out to the field, and take me some venison;
    4 And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may
  eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
    5 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the
  field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
    6 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father
  speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
    7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee
  before the LORD before my death.
    8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command
  thee.
    9 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats;
  and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
    10 And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may
  bless thee before his death.
    11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy
  man, and I am a smooth man:
    12 My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a
  deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.
    13 And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my
  voice, and go fetch me them.
    14 And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother
  made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
    15 And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were with
  her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
    16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon
  the smooth of his neck:
    17 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into
  the hand of her son Jacob.
    18 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I;
  who art thou, my son?
    19 And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy first born; I have done
  according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison,
  that thy soul may bless me.
    20 And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly,
  my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me.
    21 And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee,
  my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.
    22 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The
  voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.
    23 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother
  Esau's hands: so he blessed him.
    24 And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.
    25 And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that
  my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he
  brought him wine, and he drank.
    26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
    27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment,
  and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field
  which the LORD hath blessed:
    28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the
  earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
    29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy
  brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that
  curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
    30 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob,
  and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that
  Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
    31 And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and
  said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son's venison, that
  thy soul may bless me.
    32 And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy
  son, thy firstborn Esau.
    33 And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath
  taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest,
  and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed.
    34 And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and
  exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my
  father.
    35 And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy
  blessing.
    36 And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me
  these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken
  away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?
    37 And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord,
  and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine
  have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?
    38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father?
  bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
    39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling
  shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
    40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it
  shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his
  yoke from off thy neck.
    41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed
  him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at
  hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
  
  Proverbs 19
  
    16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that
  despiseth his ways shall die.
    17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he
  hath given will he pay him again.
    18 Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his
  crying.
    19 A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet
  thou must do it again.
    20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy
  latter end.
    21 There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the
  LORD, that shall stand.
    22 The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a
  liar.
    23 The fear of the LORD tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide
  satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
    24 A slothful man hideth his hand in his bosom, and will not so much as bring
  it to his mouth again.
    25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath
  understanding, and he will understand knowledge.

  Mark 16
  
    1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of
  James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint
  him.
    2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the
  sepulchre at the rising of the sun.
    3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the
  door of the sepulchre?
    4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was
  very great.
    5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right
  side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.
    6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which
  was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid
  him.
    7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into
  Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.
    8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled
  and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.
  
  Hebrews 9
  
    11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater
  and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this
  building;
    12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered
  in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
    13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer
  sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
    14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit
  offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to
  serve the living God?
  
  Mark 10
  
    32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before
  them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took
  again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,
    33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be
  delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn
  him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:
    34 And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him,
  and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
    35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we
  would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.
    36 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
    37 They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand,
  and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
    38 But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup
  that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
    39 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed
  drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized
  withal shall ye be baptized:
    40 But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but
  it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
    41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and
  John.
    42 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which
  are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their
  great ones exercise authority upon them.
    43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you,
  shall be your minister:
    44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
    45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister,
  and to give his life a ransom for many.

  Isaiah 45
  
    11 Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of
  things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command
  ye me.
    12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have
  stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
    13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he
  shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward,
  saith the LORD of hosts.
    14 Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and
  of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be
  thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they
  shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, saying,
  Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no God.
    15 Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
    16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to

    17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye
  shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
  
  Genesis 22
  
    1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and
  said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.
    2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and
  get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon
  one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
    3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two
  of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt
  offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.
    4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar
  off.
    5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and
  the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
    6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his
  son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them
  together.
    7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said,
  Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the
  lamb for a burnt offering?
    8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt
  offering: so they went both of them together.
    9 And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an
  altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him
  on the altar upon the wood.
    10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
    11 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said,
  Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
    12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing
  unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld
  thy son, thine only son from me.
    13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram
  caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and
  offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.
    14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to
  this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.
    15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second
  time,
    16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast
  done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:
    17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy
  seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore;
  and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
    18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because
  thou hast obeyed my voice.
  
  Proverbs 17
  
    17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
    18 A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the
  presence of his friend.
    19 He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate
  seeketh destruction.
    20 He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse
  tongue falleth into mischief.
    21 He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool
  hath no joy.
    22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the
  bones.
    23 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of
  judgment.
    24 Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are
  in the ends of the earth.
    25 A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare
  him.
    26 Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.
    27 He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of
  an excellent spirit.
    28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that
  shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.
  
  Proverbs 18
  
    1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth
  with all wisdom.
    2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover
  itself.
    3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy
  reproach.
    4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom
  as a flowing brook.
    5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the
  righteous in judgment.

    4 Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I
  the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he.
    5 The isles saw it, and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid, drew near,

    6 They helped every one his neighbour; and every one said to his brother, Be
  of good courage.
    7 So the carpenter encouraged the goldsmith, and he that smootheth with the
  hammer him that smote the anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he

  many nations.
    5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be
  Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.

  and kings shall come out of thee.
    7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after
  thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a 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, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and

  bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the

    27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the
  LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?
    28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the
  LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary?

    2 And Abram said, LORD God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless,
  and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
    3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in
  my house is mine heir.

  the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy
  seed be.

    7 And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the
  Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.

    9 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat
  of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young
  pigeon.
    10 And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid
  each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
    11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
    12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an
  horror of great darkness fell upon him.
    13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger
  in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them
  four hundred years;
    14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward

    13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart
  the spirit is broken.
    14 The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth
  of fools feedeth on foolishness.
    15 All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart
  hath a continual feast.
    16 Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble
  therewith.
    17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred
  therewith.
    18 A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth
  strife.
    19 The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the
  righteous is made plain.

  Isaiah 37
  
    33 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not
  come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields,
  nor cast a bank against it.
    34 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come
  into this city, saith the LORD.
    35 For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my
  servant David's sake.
    36 Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the
  Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early
  in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
    37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt
  at Nineveh.
    38 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his
  god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they
  escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
  
  Isaiah 38
  
    1 In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son
  of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house
  in order: for thou shalt die, and not live.
    2 Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed unto the LORD,
    3 And said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I have walked before
  thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy
  sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.
    4 Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying,
    5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father,
  I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy
  days fifteen years.
    6 And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of
  Assyria: and I will defend this city.
  
  Genesis 13
  
    12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the
  plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
    13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
    14 And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift
  up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and
  southward, and eastward, and westward:
    15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed
  for ever.
    16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can
  number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
    17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it;
  for I will give it unto thee.
    18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre,
  which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.
  
  Proverbs 14
  
    27 The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of
  death.
    28 In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people
  is the destruction of the prince.
    29 He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty
  of spirit exalteth folly.
    30 A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the
  bones.
    31 He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth
  him hath mercy on the poor.
    32 The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope
  in his death.
    33 Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which
  is in the midst of fools is made known.
    34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
    35 The king's favour is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him
  that causeth shame.
  
  Proverbs 15
  
    1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
    2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools
  poureth out foolishness.
    3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
    4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach
  in the spirit.

    16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where
  Jesus had appointed them.
    17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
    18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in
  heaven and in earth.
    19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
  Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
    20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and,
  lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
  
  Hebrews 6
  
    13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no
  greater, he sware by himself,
    14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply
  thee.
    15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
    16 For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to
  them an end of all strife.
    17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the
  immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
    18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie,
  we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon
  the hope set before us:
    19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and
  which entereth into that within the veil;
    20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest
  for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

    17 And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto
  thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;
    18 And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and
  gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that
  they should cast him out; and they could not.
    19 He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be
  with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
    20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit
  tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
    21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And
  he said, Of a child.
    22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to
  destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help
  us.
    23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him
  that believeth.
    24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears,
  Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
    25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul
  spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of
  him, and enter no more into him.
    26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was
  as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.
    27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
    28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately,
  Why could not we cast him out?
    29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer
  and fasting.
    30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not
  that any man should know it.
    31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is
  delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is
  killed, he shall rise the third day.

  speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
    33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his
  ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;
    34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that
  is, Be opened.
    35 And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was
  loosed, and he spake plain.
    36 And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged

  me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
    14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this
  people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men
  shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
    15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and
  their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
    16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the
  potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or
  shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?
    17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a
  fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
    18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of

  name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

    4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him:
  and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
    5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their
  substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran;
  and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan
  they came.
    6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain
  of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
    7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this

  are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall
  not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we
  hid ourselves:

  a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that
  believeth shall not make haste.
    17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet:
  and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow

    18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with
  hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye
  shall be trodden down by it.
    19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by
  morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation
  only to understand the report.
    20 For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the
  covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
    21 For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in
  the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to

    3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them
  thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
    4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may
  reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon
  the face of the whole earth.
    5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of
  men builded.
    6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one
  language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from
  them, which they have imagined to do.
    7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not
  understand one another's speech.
    8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the
  earth: and they left off to build the city.

    8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears
  from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off
  all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.
    9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for
  him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be
  glad and rejoice in his salvation.
  
  Genesis 9
  
    8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
    9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after
  you;
    10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the
  cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the
  ark, to every beast of the earth.
    11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut
  off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood
  to destroy the earth.
    12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me
  and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
    13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant
  between me and the earth.
    14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the
  bow shall be seen in the cloud:
    15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every
  living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to
  destroy all flesh.
    16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may
  remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all
  flesh that is upon the earth.
    17 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have
  established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
  
  Proverbs 12
  
    8 A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a
  perverse heart shall be despised.
    9 He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth
  himself, and lacketh bread.
    10 A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of
  the wicked are cruel.
    11 He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that
  followeth vain persons is void of understanding.
    12 The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous
  yieldeth fruit.
    13 The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall
  come out of trouble.
    14 A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the
  recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.
    15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto
  counsel is wise.
    16 A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.
    17 He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness
  deceit.
    18 There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of
  the wise is health.
    19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but
  for a moment.
    20 Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors
  of peace is joy.
    21 There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled
  with mischief.
    22 Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his
  delight.

  God bless!

  Isaiah 14
  
    24 The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall
  it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
    25 That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him
  under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart
  from off their shoulders.
    26 This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the
  hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.
    27 For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his
  hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
    28 In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
    29 Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee
  is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his
  fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
    30 And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in
  safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
    31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there
  shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed
  times.
    32 What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD
  hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.
  
  Genesis 8
  
    21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I
  will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of
  man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every
  thing living, as I have done.
    22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and
  summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
  
  Genesis 9
  
    1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and
  multiply, and replenish the earth.
    2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the
  earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and
  upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
    3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green
  herb have I given you all things.
    4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not
  eat.
    5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every
  beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's
  brother will I require the life of man.
    6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the
  image of God made he man.
    7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth,
  and multiply therein.
  
  Proverbs 11
  
    19 As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to
  his own death.
    20 They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the LORD: but such as
  are upright in their way are his delight.
    21 Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed
  of the righteous shall be delivered.
    22 As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without
  discretion.
    23 The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the
  wicked is wrath.
    24 There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that
  withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
    25 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered
  also himself.
    26 He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall
  be upon the head of him that selleth it.
    27 He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh
  mischief, it shall come unto him.
    28 He that trusteth in his riches shall fall; but the righteous shall
  flourish as a branch.
    29 He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall
  be servant to the wise of heart.
    30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is
  wise.
    31 Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the
  wicked and the sinner.
  
  Proverbs 12
  
    1 Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is
  brutish.
    2 A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will
  he condemn.
    3 A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous
  shall not be moved.
    4 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is
  as rottenness in his bones.
    5 The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are
  deceit.
    6 The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the
  upright shall deliver them.

  John 21:14-25 Hebrews 4:14-16, 5:1-6 Mark 8:34-38, 9:1

  God bless!

  John 21
  
    14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples,
  after that he was risen from the dead.
    15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas,
  lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that
  I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
    16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou
  me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto
  him, Feed my sheep.
    17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me?
  Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And
  he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee.
  Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
    18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst
  thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou
  shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee
  whither thou wouldest not.
    19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he
  had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.
    20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following;
  which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that
  betrayeth thee?
    21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
    22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to
  thee? follow thou me.
    23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should
  not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he
  tarry till I come, what is that to thee?
    24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these
  things: and we know that his testimony is true.
    25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they
  should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not
  contain the books that should be written. Amen.
  
  Hebrews 4
  
    14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the
  heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
    15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of
  our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without
  sin.
    16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain
  mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
  
  Hebrews 5
  
    1 For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things
  pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:
    2 Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the
  way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.
    3 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to
  offer for sins.
    4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God,
  as was Aaron.
    5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that
  said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
    6 As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the
  order of Melchisedec.
  
  Mark 8
  
    34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he
  said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up
  his cross, and follow me.
    35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose
  his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
    36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose
  his own soul?
    37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
    38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this
  adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed,
  when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
  
  Mark 9
  
    1 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them
  that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the
  kingdom of God come with power.

  Hebrews 10
  
    32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were
  illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
    33 Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and
  afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so
  used.
    34 For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of
  your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an
  enduring substance.
    35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of
  reward.
    36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye
  might receive the promise.
    37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not
  tarry.
    38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall

  Mark 2
  
    14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the
  receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed
  him.
    15 And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many
  publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there
  were many, and they followed him.
    16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners,
  they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with
  publicans and sinners?
    17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need
  of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but
  sinners to repentance.

  Isaiah 13
  
    2 Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them,
  shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
    3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for
  mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
    4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a
  tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of
  hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
    5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and
  the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
    6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction
  from the Almighty.
    7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
    8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they
  shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at
  another; their faces shall be as flames.
    9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger,
  to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
    10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give
  their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall
  not cause her light to shine.
    11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their
  iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay
  low the haughtiness of the terrible.
    12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden
  wedge of Ophir.
    13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her
  place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
  
  Genesis 8
  
    4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the
  month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
    5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth
  month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
    6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window
  of the ark which he had made:
    7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters
  were dried up from off the earth.
    8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from
  off the face of the ground;
    9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto
  him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he
  put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
    10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out
  of the ark;
    11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an
  olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the
  earth.
    12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which
  returned not again unto him any more.
    13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first
  month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth:
  and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of
  the ground was dry.
    14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was
  the earth dried.
    15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
    16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives
  with thee.
    17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh,
  both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
  earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and
  multiply upon the earth.
    18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with
  him:
    19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth
  upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
    20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast,
  and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
    21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I
  will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of
  man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every
  thing living, as I have done.
  
  Proverbs 10
  
    31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall

  wicked speaketh frowardness.
  
  Proverbs 11
  
    1 A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his
  delight.
    2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.
    3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of
  transgressors shall destroy them.
    4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from
  death.
    5 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall
  fall by his own wickedness.
    6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors
  shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
    7 When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of
  unjust men perisheth.
    8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his
  stead.
    9 An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge
  shall the just be delivered.
    10 When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the
  wicked perish, there is shouting.
    11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown
  by the mouth of the wicked.
    12 He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of
  understanding holdeth his peace.
