This is in the sequential order in which it was given and should be read out loud to Him because faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of the Lord.

Scripture in sequential order: [Psalms 2,5,25,27,8,19,91,105,65 - Proverbs 2,4,6,8,11,18,25,31 - Isa. 52,54,33 - Lev. 9 - Rev. 5,12,18 - Mat. 5,8,9] - Scripture provided below - all taken from KJV

Psalm 2 (King James Version)

 1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

 3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

 4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.

 5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

 6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

 7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

 8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

 9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

 10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

 11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

 12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

 

 

King James Version (KJV)Psalm 19

 1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

 2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

 3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

 4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

 5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

 6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

 7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

 8 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

 9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

 10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

 11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.

 12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.

 13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.

 14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

Psalm 91

 1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

 2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

 3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

 4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

 5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

 6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

 7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

 8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

 9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

 10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

 11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

 13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

 14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

 15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

Psalm 105

 1 O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.

 2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.

 3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

 4 Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.

 5 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;

 6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.

 7 He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.

 8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.

 9 Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;

 10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:

 11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

 12 When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.

 13 When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;

 14 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes;

 15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

 16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.

 17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:

 18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:

 19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.

 20 The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.

 21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:

 22 To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.

 23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

 24 And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.

 25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.

 26 He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.

 27 They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

 28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

 29 He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.

 30 Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.

 31 He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.

 32 He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.

 33 He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.

 34 He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number,

 35 And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.

 36 He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.

 37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.

 38 Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.

 39 He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.

 40 The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

 41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.

 42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.

 43 And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:

 44 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;

 45 That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm 5

 1 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.

 2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

 3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

 4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.

 5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

 6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

 7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

 8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.

 9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

 10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

 11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

 12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

 

Psalm 25

 1nto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.

 2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

 3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

 4 Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.

 5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

 6 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.

 7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD.

 8 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

 9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

 10 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

 11 For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

 12 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

 13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

 14 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

 15 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

 16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.

 17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.

 18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.

 19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.

 20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.

 21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

 22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

 

 

Psalm 27

 1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

 2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

 3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

 4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.

 5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

 6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

 7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

 8 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

 9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

 10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

 11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

 12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

 13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

 14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

 

Psalm 8

 1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

 2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

 3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

 5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

 6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

 7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

 8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

 9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

 

 

 

Psalm 65

 1 Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.

 2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.

 3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.

 4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

 5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:

 6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:

 7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.

 8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

 9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.

 10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.

 11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.

 12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.

 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.

 Proverbs 2

 1My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;

 2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;

 3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;

 4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;

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

 6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

 7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.

 8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.

 9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.

 10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;

 11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:

 12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;

 13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;

 14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;

 15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:

 16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;

 17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.

 18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.

 19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.

 20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.

 21 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.

 22 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

 

Proverbs 4

 1 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

 2 For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.

 3 For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

 4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.

 5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

 6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.

 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

 8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.

 9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

 10 Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.

 11 I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.

 12 When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.

 13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.

 14 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.

 15 Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.

 16 For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.

 17 For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.

 18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

 19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.

 20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.

 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

 24 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

 25Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

 26 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.

 27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

 

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.

 13 A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

 14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

 15 He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship is sure.

 16 A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain riches.

 17 The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.

 18 The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.

 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.

 22As 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 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.

 6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.

 7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

 8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

 9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.

 10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.

 12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.

 13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

 14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?

 15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

 16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.

 17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.

 18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.

 19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.

 20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.

 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

 22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.

 23 The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.

 24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Proverbs 25

 1 These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out.

 2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.

 3 The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.

 4 Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.

 5 Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.

 6 Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men:

 7 For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen.

 8 Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.

 9 Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another:

 10 Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away.

 11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.

 12 As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.

 13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.

 14 Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.

 15 By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.

 16 Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.

 17 Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee.

 18 A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.

 19 Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.

 20 As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart.

 21 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:

 22 For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.

 23 The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.

 24 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.

 25 As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.

 26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.

 27 It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.

 28 He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.

Proverbs 31

 1 The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.

 2 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?

 3 Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.

 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:

 5 Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.

 6 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.

 7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.

 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.

Isaiah 52

 1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.

 2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.

 3 For thus saith the LORD, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money.

 4 For thus saith the Lord GOD, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.

 5 Now therefore, what have I here, saith the LORD, that my people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the LORD; and my name continually every day is blasphemed.

 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.

 7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

 8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.

 9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.

 10 The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

 11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD.

 12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your reward.

 13 Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.

 14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:

 15 So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.

Isaiah 54

 1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.

 2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

 3 For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

 4 Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

 5 For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

 6 For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.

 7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

 8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

 9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

 10 For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

 11 O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

 12 And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.

 13 And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.

 14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.

 15 Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

 16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

 17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

Isaiah 33

 1 Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.

 2 O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.

 3 At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.

 4 And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.

 5 The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.

 6 And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.

 7 Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.

 8 The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.

 9 The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.

 10 Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.

 11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you.

 12 And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.

 13 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might.

 14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

 15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;

 16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.

 17 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.

 18 Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?

 19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.

 20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.

 21 But there the glorious LORD will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.

 22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.

 23 Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.

 24 And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.

Leviticus 9 (King James Version)

 1 And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;

 2 And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.

 3 And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;

 4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the LORD will appear unto you.

 5 And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.

 6 And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commanded that ye should do: and the glory of the LORD shall appear unto you.

 7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.

 8 Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.

 9 And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:

 10 But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the LORD commanded Moses.

 11 And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.

 12 And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.

 13 And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.

 14 And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt them upon the burnt offering on the altar.

 15 And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat, which was the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.

 16 And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the manner.

 17 And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.

 18 He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about,

 19 And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver:

 20 And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar:

 21 And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.

 22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.

 23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people.

 24 And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.

Revelation 5

 1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

 2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

 3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

 4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

 5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

 6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

 7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

 8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

 9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

 10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

 12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

 13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

 14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

 

Revelation 12

 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

 2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

 3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

 4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

 5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

 9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

 13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

 14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

 15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.

 16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

 17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Revelation 18

 1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

 2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

 3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

 4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

 6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

 7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

 8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

 9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

 10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

 11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

 12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

 13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

 15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

 16 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

 17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

 18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

 19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

 20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

 21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

 22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;

 23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

 24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

Matthew 5

 1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

 2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

 3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

 4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

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

 6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

 7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

 8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

 9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

 10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

 20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

 21 Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

 22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

 23 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;

 24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

 25 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

 26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

 27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

 28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

 29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

 30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

 31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

 32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

 33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

 34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:

 35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

 36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

 37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

 38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

 39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

 40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.

 41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

 42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

 43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

 46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Matthew 8

 1 When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

 2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

 3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

 4 And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

 5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

 6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

 7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

 8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

 9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

 10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

 11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

 12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

 13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

 14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.

 15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

 16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:

 17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

 18 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart unto the other side.

 19 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

 20 And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

 21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

 22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

 23 And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.

 24 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.

 25 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.

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

 27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

 28 And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.

 29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?

 30 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.

 31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.

 32 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

 33 And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.

 34 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.

Matthew 9

 1 And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.

 2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

 3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

 4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

 5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

 6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

 7 And he arose, and departed to his house.

 8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

 9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

 10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

 11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

 12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

 13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

 14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?

 15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

 16 No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

 17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

 18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

 19 And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

 20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:

 21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

 23 And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

 24 He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

 25 But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

 26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

 27 And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

 28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.

 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

 31 But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.

 32 As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

 33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

 34 But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.

 35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

 36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

 

 

 

We cover this in the blood of Jesus Christ and seal this in Jesus name Amen
