²⁰ Out of his nostrils a smoke goes, as of a boiling pot and burning rushes. ²¹ His breath kindles coals and a flame goes forth from his mouth.

⁸ There went up a smoke out of his nostrils and fire out of his mouth devoured. Coals were kindled by it.

¹⁵ Then the channels of waters appeared and the foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, O Jehovah, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.

³ A fire goes before him and burns up his adversaries all around. ⁴ His lightnings lightened the world. The earth saw and trembled. ⁵ The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

²⁷ Behold, the name of Jehovah comes from far, burning with his anger and in thick rising smoke. His lips are full of indignation and his tongue is as a devouring fire,

³³ For a Topheth is prepared of old, yes, it is made ready for the king. He has made it deep and large. The pile of it is fire and much wood. The breath of Jehovah kindles it, like a stream of brimstone.

¹⁴ Therefore Jehovah says thus, the God of hosts: Because you* speak this word, behold, I will make my words in your mouth fire and this people wood and it will devour them.

¹⁴ And I will make them to pass with your enemies into a land which you do not know. For a fire is kindled in my anger, which will burn upon you*.

⁵ Before him went the pestilence. And fiery bolts went forth at his feet.

²⁹ for our God is also a consuming fire.

²¹ And the people stood afar off and Moses drew near to the thick darkness where God was.

¹¹ And you* came near and stood under the mountain and the mountain burned with fire to the heart of heaven, with darkness, cloud and thick darkness.

¹² Then Solomon spoke, Jehovah has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

² Clouds and darkness are all around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

³ who lays the beams of his chambers in the waters, who makes the clouds his chariot, who walks upon the wings of the wind,

⁵ Bow your heavens, O Jehovah and come down. Touch the mountains and they will smoke.

¹ Oh that you would tear the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence, ² as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the waters to boil, to make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence! ³ When you did fearful things which we did not look for, you came down; the mountains quaked at your presence.

³ Jehovah is slow to anger and great in power and will by no means clear the guilty.
Jehovah has his way in the whirlwind and in the storm and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

⁴⁵ Now there became darkness upon all the earth from the sixth hour until the ninth hour

⁴⁴ Now it was approximately the sixth hour and there became darkness upon the whole earth until the ninth hour
⁴⁵ And the sun was darkened and the curtain of the temple was split-apart in the middle.

²⁴ So he drove out the man. And he placed the cherubim and the flame of a sword which turned every way at the east of the garden of Eden to guard the way of the tree of life.

¹⁹ And make one cherub at the one end and one cherub at the other end; of one piece with the mercy-seat you* will make the cherubim on the two ends of it.

⁴ So the people sent to Shiloh and they brought from there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of hosts, who sits above the cherubim. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

¹⁰ And he rode upon a cherub and flew. Yes, he soared upon the wings of the wind.

¹⁷ The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands upon thousands. The Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the sanctuary.

¹ Listen, O Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock. You who sit above the cherubim, shine forth.

¹ Jehovah reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits above the cherubim, let the earth be moved.

⁹ If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the outermost parts of the sea,

³ And the glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub, upon which it was, to the threshold of the house and he called to the man clothed in linen who had the writer's case by his side.

² And he spoke to the man clothed in linen and said, Go in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherub and fill both your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim and scatter them over the city. And he entered in my sight.
³ Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house when the man went in and the cloud filled the inner court. ⁴ And the glory of Jehovah mounted up from the cherub, over the threshold of the house. And the house was filled with the cloud and the court was full of the brightness of Jehovah's glory. ⁵ And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.
⁶ And it happened, when he commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim, that he went in and stood beside a wheel. ⁷ And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that was between the cherubim and took and put it into the hands of him who was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
⁸ And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings. ⁹ And I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub and another wheel beside another cherub. And the appearance of the wheels was like a beryl stone. ¹⁰ And as for their appearance, those four had one likeness, as if a wheel have been within a wheel.
¹¹ When they went, they went in their four directions. They did not turn as they went, but to the place where the head looked they followed it. They did not turn as they went.
¹² And their whole body and their backs and their hands and their wings and the wheels, were full of eyes all around, even the wheels that those four had. ¹³ As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, O wheel.
¹⁴ And each one had four faces. The first face was the face of the cherub and the second face was the face of a man and the third face the face of a lion and the fourth the face of an eagle.

¹⁴ Are they not all ministering spirits, being sent forth into service because of those who are about to inherit salvation?

¹⁰ He bowed the heavens also and came down and thick darkness was under his feet.

²⁹ Yes, can any understand the spreading of the clouds, the thunderings of his pavilion?

¹¹ He made darkness his hiding-place, his pavilion all around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
¹² At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.

⁹ There went up a smoke out of his nostrils and fire out of his mouth devoured. Coals were kindled by it.

⁶ and you* will be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which you will speak to the sons of Israel.

²⁰ From heaven the stars fought; from their courses they fought against Sisera.

¹⁰ Those who contend with Jehovah will be broken to pieces. He will thunder against them in heaven. Jehovah will judge the ends of the earth and he will give strength to his king and exalt the horn of his anointed.

¹⁰ And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel, but Jehovah thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines and confused them and they were struck down before Israel.

¹⁷ Is it not wheat harvest today? I will call to Jehovah that he may send thunder and rain and you* will know and see that your* wickedness is great, which you* have done in the sight of Jehovah in asking a king for you*.
¹⁸ So Samuel called to Jehovah and Jehovah sent thunder and rain that day. And all the people greatly feared Jehovah and Samuel.

² Hear, O, hear the noise of his voice and the rumbling that goes out of his mouth. ³ He sends it forth under the whole heaven and his lightning to the ends of the earth. ⁴ After it a voice roars. He thunders with the voice of his majesty and he does not restrain the lightnings when his voice is heard.
⁵ God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things which we cannot comprehend.

⁹ Or have you an arm like God? And can you thunder with a voice like him?

³ The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Jehovah upon many waters.
⁴ The voice of Jehovah is powerful. The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.
⁵ The voice of Jehovah breaks the cedars. Yes, Jehovah breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. ⁶ He makes them also to skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.
⁷ The voice of Jehovah splits the flames of fire.
⁸ The voice of Jehovah shakes the wilderness. Jehovah shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
⁹ The voice of Jehovah makes the female-deers to birth-calves and strips the forests bare. And in his temple everything says, Glory.

¹⁶ The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you. They were afraid. The depths also trembled. ¹⁷ The clouds poured out water. The skies sent out a sound. Your arrows also went abroad.
¹⁸ The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lightened the world. The earth trembled and shook.
¹⁹ Your way was in the sea and your paths in the great waters. And your footsteps were not known.

³⁰ And Jehovah will cause his glorious voice to be heard and will show the coming down of his arm with the indignation of his anger and the flame of a devouring fire, with a blast and tempest and hailstones.

⁵ And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.

¹⁹ And the temple of God which is in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen in his temple, and there became lightnings and voices and thunders and an earthquake and great hail.

²³ I will heap evils upon them. I will spend my arrows upon them,

¹⁰ And Jehovah confused them before Israel and he killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon and killed* them to Azekah and to Makkedah.

¹² If a man does not repent, he will flash his sword. He has bent his bow and made it ready. ¹³ He has also prepared for him the instruments of death. He makes his arrows fiery.

¹⁴ And he sent out his arrows and scattered them, Yes, lightnings shot out and confused them.

⁵ Your arrows are sharp. The peoples fall under you. They are in the heart of the king's enemies.

⁶ Cast forth lightning and scatter them. Send out your arrows and confuse them.
⁷ Stretch forth your hand from above. Rescue me and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hand of aliens,

¹¹ The sun and moon stood still in their habitation, at the light of your arrows as they went, at the shining of your glittering spear.

²¹ And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea and Jehovah caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night and made the sea dry land and the waters were divided. ²² And the sons of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left. ²³ And the Egyptians pursued and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots and his horsemen.
²⁴ And it happened in the morning watch, that Jehovah looked forth upon the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud and troubled the army of the Egyptians. ²⁵ And he took off their chariot wheels and they drove them with difficulty, so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel, because Jehovah fights for them against the Egyptians.
²⁶ And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and upon their horsemen. ²⁷ And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared and the Egyptians fled against it and Jehovah overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

⁸ And with the blast of your nostrils the waters were piled up. The flowing waters stood up as a heap. The depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
⁹ The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil, my desire will be satisfied upon them. I will draw my sword, my hand will destroy them. ¹⁰ You did blow with your wind, the sea covered them. They sank as lead in the mighty waters.

¹¹ and said, This far you will come, but no farther and here your proud waves will be stayed?

¹⁵ Then the channels of waters appeared and the foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, O Jehovah, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
¹⁶ He sent from on high, he took me, he drew me out of many waters. ¹⁷ He delivered me from my strong enemy and from those who hated me, because they were too mighty for me.

¹ O God, why have you cast off forever? Why does your anger smoke against the sheep of your pasture?

⁹ He also rebuked the Red Sea and it was dried up. So he led them through the depths as through a wilderness.

³ The sea saw it and fled. The Jordan was driven back. ⁴ The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
⁵ What is it to you, O you the sea, that you flee? You Jordan, that you turn back? ⁶ You* mountains, that you* skip like rams, you* little hills, like lambs?
⁷ Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

⁴ He rebukes the sea and makes it dry and dries up all the rivers. Bashan languishes and Carmel and the flower of Lebanon languishes.

⁸ Was Jehovah displeased with the rivers? Was your anger against the rivers, or your wrath against the sea, that you rode upon your horses, upon your chariots of salvation?
⁹ Your bow was exposed. Naked are the oaths of the tribes to your word. Selah. You split the earth with rivers. ¹⁰ The mountains saw you and were afraid. The tempest of waters passed by. The deep uttered its voice and lifted up its hands on high.

²⁶ And he says to them, Why are you cowardly? You of small faith! Then he arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there became a great calm.
²⁷ Now the men marveled, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea are obeying him?

¹⁰ And the child grew and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son. And she called his name Moses and said, Because I drew him out of the water.

¹⁶ He sent from on high, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.

⁶ On this, let everyone who is devout pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow they will not reach to him.

¹ Deliver me from my enemies, O my God. Set me on high from those who rise up against me. ² Deliver me from the workers of wickedness and save me from the bloodthirsty men.

⁴ then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul, ⁵ then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

¹ Out of the depths I have cried to you, O Jehovah.

⁷ Stretch forth your hand from above. Rescue me and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hand of aliens,

² When you pass through the waters, I will be with you and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, nor will the flame kindle upon you.

⁵⁴ Waters flowed over my head. I said, I am cut off.

¹ And David spoke to Jehovah the words of this song in the day that Jehovah delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies and out of the hand of Saul:

⁷ Arise, O Jehovah. Save me, O my God. Because you have struck all my enemies upon the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.

¹⁷ But the Lord stood beside me and empowered me; in order that the preaching might be fully assured through me and in order that all the Gentiles might hear and I was rescued out of the mouth of the lion.

¹¹ And Saul sent messengers to David's house, to watch him and to kill him in the morning. And Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be slain. ¹² So Michal let David down through the window and he went and fled and escaped.
¹³ And Michal took the household-idol and laid it in the bed and put a pillow of goats' hair at the head of it and covered it with the clothes. ¹⁴ And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick. ¹⁵ And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.
¹⁶ And when the messengers came in, behold, the household-idol was in the bed, with the pillow of goats' hair at the head of it. ¹⁷ And Saul said to Michal, Why have you deceived me thus and let my enemy go, so that he has escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said to me, Let me go. Why should I kill you?

²⁶ And Saul went on this side of the mountain and David and his men on that side of the mountain. And David made haste to get away for fear of Saul. For Saul and his men encompassed David and his men all around to take them.
²⁷ But there came a messenger to Saul, saying, You hasten and come, for the Philistines have made a raid upon the land.

¹⁰ But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as you* hear the sound of the trumpet, then you* will say, Absalom is king in Hebron. ¹¹ And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem who were invited and went in their simplicity. And they did not know anything.
¹² And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
¹³ And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.

¹⁸ They came upon me in the day of my calamity, but Jehovah was my support. ¹⁹ He also brought me forth into a large place. He delivered me because he delighted in me.

⁴ Even, because I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, because you are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

²⁰ You, who have shown us many and great troubles, will revive us again and will bring us up again from the depths of the earth. ²¹ Increase my greatness and turn again and comfort me.

¹⁰ All nations encompassed me around. I will cut them off in the name of Jehovah. ¹¹ They encompassed me around, yes, they encompassed me around. I will cut them off in the name of Jehovah. ¹² They encompassed me around like bees. They are quenched as the fire of thorns. I will cut them off in the name of Jehovah.
¹³ You thrust greatly at me that I might fall, but Jehovah helped me.

¹⁹ Your dead will live. My dead bodies will arise. Awake and sing, you* who dwell in the dust, for your dew is as the dew of herbs and the earth will cast forth the dead.

¹⁰ Who is among you* that fears Jehovah, who obeys the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness and has no light, let him trust in the name of Jehovah and rely upon his God.

³⁹ Now those who traveled by were blaspheming him, wagging their heads, ⁴⁰ and saying, He who tears-down the temple and builds it in three days, save yourself. If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.
⁴¹ Now likewise, also the high-priests with the scribes and elders and Pharisees, mocking him, and were saying, ⁴² He saved others, yet he is not able to save himself. If he is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross and we will believe in him. ⁴³ He has confidence upon God. Let him rescue him now, if he is willing to save him; for he said, I am the Son of God. ⁴⁴ Now the robbers who were also crucified together with him were reproaching him with the same thing.

²² And he moved from there and dug another well and they did not contend for that. And he called the name of it Rehoboth. And he said, For now Jehovah has made room for us and we will be fruitful in the land.

²⁶ But if he says thus, I have no delight in you, behold, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him.

¹⁰ And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that you would bless me indeed and enlarge my border and that your hand might be with me and that you would keep me from evil, that it not be to my sorrow! And God granted him what he requested.

⁸ He trusted on Jehovah. Let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, because he delights in him.

⁸ and you have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a large place.

⁵ I called upon Jehovah out of my distress. Jehovah answered me upon a large place.

¹¹ Jehovah takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his loving kindness.

⁴ Because Jehovah takes pleasure in his people. He will beautify the meek with salvation.

¹ Behold, my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights. I have put my Spirit upon him, he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.

¹⁶ For Israel has behaved himself stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer. Now Jehovah will feed them as a lamb in a large place.

¹⁷ and behold, a voice came out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted.

⁵ While he is still speaking, behold, a radiant cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted; hear him!

⁴³ He has confidence upon God. Let him rescue him now, if he is willing to save him; for he said, I am the Son of God.

³² This Jesus, God raised up, of whom we are all witnesses. ³³ Therefore having been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he has poured out this, which you are seeing and hearing now. ³⁴ For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, ³⁵ until I should place your enemies as the footstool of your feet.’ ³⁶ Therefore, let all the house of Israel know with certainty, that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.

²³ And Jehovah will render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness, inasmuch as Jehovah delivered you into my hand today and I would not put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed.

²⁵ Therefore Jehovah has recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his eyesight.

³² then hear you in heaven and do and judge your servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his own head and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.

⁹ Yet the righteous will hold on his way. And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

³ O Jehovah my God, if I have done this, if there is unrighteousness in my hands, ⁴ if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, (yes, I have delivered him without cause who was my adversary),

⁸ Jehovah will judge the peoples. Judge me, O Jehovah, according to my righteousness and to my integrity that is in me.

²⁰ Jehovah has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands he has recompensed me. ²¹ Because I have kept the ways of Jehovah and have not wickedly departed from my God.
²² Because all his ordinances were before me and I put not away his statutes from me. ²³ I was also perfect with him and I kept myself from my iniquity.
²⁴ Therefore Jehovah has recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
²⁵ You will show yourself merciful with the merciful. You will show yourself perfect with the perfect man.

¹¹ Moreover by them your servant is warned. There is great reward in keeping them.

⁴ He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood and has not sworn deceitfully.

⁵⁸ So-then my beloved brethren, become grounded, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not empty in the Lord.

⁸ Draw near to God and he will be drawing near to you. Cleanse your hands sinners and purify your hearts you indecisive!

¹⁹ For I have known him, to the end that he may command his children and his household after him, that they may keep the way of Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice, to the end that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham what he has spoken of him.

¹⁵ And Moses was very angry and said to Jehovah, Do not respect you their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.

³ Here I am. Witness against me before Jehovah and before his anointed: Whose ox have I taken? Or whose donkey have I taken? Or whom have I defrauded? Whom have I oppressed? Or of whose hand have I taken a bribe to blind my eyes with it? And I will restore it to you*.

¹⁰ But he knows the way that I take. When he has tried me, I will come out as gold. ¹¹ My foot has held fast to his steps. I have kept his way and not turned aside. ¹² I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips, I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

³ The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.

¹ Those who are perfect in the way, who walk in the law of Jehovah are fortunate.

⁵ But as for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of wickedness.
Peace be upon Israel.

¹ All who fear Jehovah are fortunate, who walk in his ways.

³² Now therefore, you* sons, listen to me. For those who keep my ways are fortunate.

⁶ and those who are turned back from following Jehovah and those who have not sought Jehovah, nor inquired after him.

¹⁰ If you keep my commandments, you will be abiding in my love; just-as I have kept my Father’s commandments and am abiding in his love.

¹² For this is our boasting, the testimony of our conscience, that in clarity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we conducted ourselves in the world and even-more toward you.

³⁸ But my righteous one will be living from faith and if he retreats back, my soul does not delight in him.’ ³⁹ But we are not from this retreating back leading to destruction, but we are from the faith leading to the preservation of the soul.

¹ Now this is the commandment, the statutes and the ordinances, which Jehovah your* God commanded to teach you*, that you* might do them in the land where you* go over to possess it, ² that you might fear Jehovah your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you, you and your son and your son's son, all the days of your life and that your days may be prolonged.

⁶ And these words, which I command you this day, will be upon your heart. ⁷ And you will teach them diligently to your sons and will talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. ⁸ And you will bind them for a sign upon your hand and they will be for bands between your eyes. ⁹ And you will write them upon the door-posts of your house and upon your gates.

¹² And it will happen, because you* listen to these ordinances and keep and do them, that Jehovah your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers.

¹¹ Beware lest you forget Jehovah your God, in not keeping his commandments and his ordinances and his statutes, which I command you this day.

⁸ The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart. The commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes. ⁹ The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring forever. The ordinances of Jehovah are true and righteous altogether.

⁶ Then I will not be put to shame when I have respect for all your commandments.

¹³ I have declared all the ordinances of your mouth with my lips.

³⁰ I have chosen the way of faithfulness. I have set your ordinances.

⁸⁶ All your commandments are faithful. They persecute me wrongfully. Help me.

¹⁰² I have not turned aside from your ordinances, because you have taught me.

¹²⁸ Therefore I esteem all precepts concerning all things to be right. I hate every false way.

⁶ Now they were both righteous and blameless in God’s sight, conducting-themselves in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.

¹⁴ You are my friends, if you practice as many things as I command you.

⁹ These are the genealogies of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God.

¹ And when Abram was ninety-nine years old, Jehovah appeared to Abram and said to him, I am God Almighty, walk before me and you will be perfect.

¹ There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job and that man was perfect and upright and one who feared God and turned away from evil.

⁶ Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts and in the hidden part you will make me to know wisdom.

²³ Keep your heart with all diligence, because out of it are the things of life.

⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and says concerning him, Behold, an Israelite in whom there truly is no treachery!

¹¹ Therefore knowing the fear of the Lord, we are persuading men, but we have been manifested to God, and I hope to have also been manifested in your consciences.

⁴ just-as he chose us in him before the conception of the world, for us to be holy and unblemished in his sight in love.

¹ Therefore, since we also have so-great a cloud of witnesses encompassing us, let us run through endurance the contest laying before us, placing away from ourselves every interference, and the easily restricting sin.

²¹ Jehovah rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me.

²¹ Because the ways of man are before the eyes of Jehovah and he makes level all his paths.

¹⁰ Say you* of the righteous, that it is well, for they will eat the fruit of their practices.

⁷ Everlasting life to those who indeed by endurance in good work are seeking glory and honor and incorruption. ⁸ But to those seeking things out of selfish ambition and who are indeed disobedient to the truth, but obey unrighteousness, he will repay with fury and wrath,

¹⁰ For it is essential for all of us to appear before the judicial-seat of the Christ; in order that each one may get back the things done in the body, for what he practiced, whether good or evil.

⁷ The merciful are fortunate, because they will be shown-mercy.

¹³ For the judgment is merciless to the one who has not practiced mercy; mercy wins over judgment.

¹¹ Now I know that Jehovah is greater than all gods, yes, in the thing in which they dealt proudly against them.

²³ And if by these things you* will not be reformed to me, but will walk contrary to me, ²⁴ then I also will walk contrary to you* and I will kill* you*, even I, seven times for your* sins. ²⁵ And I will bring a sword upon you* that will execute the vengeance of the covenant and you* will be gathered together within your* cities. And I will send the pestilence among you* and you* will be delivered into the hand of the enemy. ²⁶ When I break your* staff of bread, ten women will bake your* bread in one oven and they will deliver your* bread again by weight and you* will eat and not be satisfied.
²⁷ And if for all this you* will not listen to me, but walk contrary to me, ²⁸ then I will walk contrary to you* in wrath and I also will discipline you* seven times for your* sins.

⁵⁸ If you will not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and fearful name, JEHOVAH YOUR GOD, ⁵⁹ then Jehovah will make your calamities extraordinary and the calamities of your seed, even great calamities and of long continuance and severe sicknesses and of long continuance.
⁶⁰ And he will bring upon you again all the diseases of Egypt, which you were afraid of and they will cling to you. ⁶¹ Also every sickness and every calamity, which is not written in the book of this law, them Jehovah will bring upon you, until you are destroyed.

²⁶ You will show yourself pure with the pure.And with the perverse you will show yourself contrary.

⁹ Woe to him who contends with his maker, a earthen vessel among the earthen vessels of the earth! Shall the clay say to him that fashions it, What are you making? or your work, He has no hands?

⁸ The clean in heart are fortunate, because they will be seeing God.

⁷ And Jehovah said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, because I know their sorrows. ⁸ And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite.

¹⁴ For this time I will send all my plagues upon your heart and upon your servants and upon your people, that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth. ¹⁵ For now I have put forth my hand and struck you and your people with pestilence,
and you have been cut off from the earth.
¹⁶ But indeed for this cause I have raised you up, to display in you my power and that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.
¹⁷ As yet you exalt yourself against my people, that you will not let them go?

³ And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and said to him, Jehovah says thus, the God of the Hebrews, How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.

¹¹ Pour forth the overflowing of your anger and look upon everyone who is proud and humble him.
¹² Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low and tread down the wicked where they stand.

⁵ Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, now I will arise, says Jehovah. I will set him into the safety he breathes for.

¹² Because he will deliver a needy man when he cries and a poor man, who has no helper. ¹³ He will have pity on a poor and needy man and he will save the souls of the needy.

⁶ Because Jehovah is high, yet he has respect to the lowly. But he knows the haughty from afar.

¹² I know that Jehovah will maintain the cause of the afflicted man and justice for the needy.

⁴ A high look and a proud heart, even the lamp of the wicked, is sin.

¹¹ The lofty looks of man will be brought low and the haughtiness of men will be bowed down and Jehovah alone will be exalted in that day.
¹² For there will be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon all that is proud and haughty and upon all that is lifted up and it will be brought low,

¹⁷ And the loftiness of man will be bowed down and the haughtiness of men will be brought low and Jehovah alone will be exalted in that day.

¹⁵ And the common man is bowed down and the great man is debased and the eyes of the lofty are humbled,

²³ Whom have you defied and blasphemed? And against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes on high? Even against the Holy One of Israel.

²⁸ But I know your sitting down and your going out and your coming in and your raging against me. ²⁹ Because of your raging against me and because your arrogance has come up into my ears, therefore I will put my hook in your nose and my bridle in your lips and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.

¹ The Spirit of the lord Jehovah is upon me, because Jehovah has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind and the opening of bonds to those who are bound, ² to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, ³ to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.

⁹ In all their affliction he was afflicted and the messenger of his presence saved them. In his love and in his pity he redeemed them. And he bore them and carried them all the days of old.

³⁷ Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all his works are truth and his ways justice. And he is able to humble those who walk in pride.

³ The poor in spirit are fortunate, because theirs is the kingdom of the heavens.

⁶ But he is giving greater grace. Hence the Scripture says, ‘God resists the haughty, but gives grace to the humble.’
⁷ Therefore, be subject to God and stand against the devil, and he will be fleeing away from you.

⁵ Likewise, the younger ones, be subject to the elder ones. But all of you be subject to one another, clothe yourselves with humility, because ‘God resists the haughty, but is giving grace to the humble.’ ⁶ Therefore humble yourselves under the powerful hand of God, in order that he may exalt you in time;

¹⁷ But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him and killed* the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, You will no more go out with us to battle, that you not quench the lamp of Israel.

³ when his lamp shone upon my head and by his light I walked through darkness,

⁶ There are many who say, Who will show us good? Jehovah, lift you up the light of your countenance upon us.

²⁸ Because you will light my lamp. Jehovah my God will lighten my darkness.

¹ Jehovah is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?

¹¹ Light is sown for the righteous man and gladness for the upright in heart.

⁴ To the upright there arises light in the darkness. He is gracious and merciful and righteous.

¹⁹ The sun will no more be your light by day, nor for brightness will the moon give light to you, but Jehovah will be to you an everlasting light and your God your glory. ²⁰ Your sun will no more go down, nor will your moon withdraw itself, for Jehovah will be your everlasting light. And the days of your mourning will be ended.

⁹ I will bear the indignation of Jehovah, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light and I will behold his righteousness.

² But to you* who fear my name the sun of righteousness will arise with healing in its wings and you* will go forth and frolic as calves of the stall.

¹² Therefore, again Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world. He who is following me may never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.

⁴⁶ I have come like a light into the world, in order that everyone who believes in me may not remain in the darkness.

²³ And the city has no need of the sun, neither of the moon, in order that they should appear in it; for the glory of God illuminated it and its lamp is the Lamb.

²⁹ Because by you I run upon a troop and by my God I leap over a wall.

¹⁰ All nations encompassed me around. I will cut them off in the name of Jehovah. ¹¹ They encompassed me around, yes, they encompassed me around. I will cut them off in the name of Jehovah. ¹² They encompassed me around like bees. They are quenched as the fire of thorns. I will cut them off in the name of Jehovah.

³⁷ But we are victorious in all these things through the one who loved us.

¹³ I am strong in all things in the Christ, who is empowering me.

³ God, my rock, in him I will take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my high tower and my refuge, my savior. You save me from violence.

⁷ I will tell of the decree. Jehovah said to me, You are my Son, this day I have fathered you.

⁶ The words of Jehovah are pure words, as silver tried in a furnace on the earth, purified seven times.

³⁰ As for God, his way is perfect. The word of Jehovah is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

² Take hold of shield and buckler and stand up for my help.

⁴ He will cover you with his pinions and under his wings will you take refuge. His truth is a shield and a buckler.

¹⁴⁰ Your word is very pure, therefore your servant loves it.

⁴⁸ Therefore you will be complete, just-like your Father is complete, the one in the heavens.

³ And they are singing the song of Moses the bondservant of God and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are your works, O Lord God, the Almighty; your ways are righteous and true, the King of the nations.

³¹ For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.

³⁹ See now that I, even I, am he and there is no god with me. I kill and I make alive. I wound and I heal. And there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

² And he said, Jehovah is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, even mine. ³ God, my rock, in him I will take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my high tower and my refuge, my savior. You save me from violence.

⁶ Jehovah says thus, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, Jehovah of hosts: I am the first and I am the last and besides me there is no God.

⁸ Do not fear, nor be afraid. Have I not declared to you of old and shown it? And you* are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? Yes, there is no Rock. I do not know any.

⁵ I am Jehovah and there is none else. Besides me there is no God. I will gird you, though you have not known me, ⁶ that they may know from the rising of the sun and from the west, that there is none besides me. I am Jehovah and there is none else.

⁶ There is none like you, O Jehovah. You are great and your name is great in might. ⁷ Who should not fear you, O King of the nations? For to you it is befitting, inasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations and in all their royal estate, there is none like you.

¹⁶ The portion of Jacob is not like these. For he is the former of all things and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance. Jehovah of hosts is his name.

² Jehovah is my strength and song and he has become my salvation. This is my God and I will praise him, my father's God and I will exalt him.

¹³ You will be perfect with Jehovah your God.

² And he said, Jehovah is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, even mine. ³ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous? Or is it gain to him that you make your ways perfect?

³² the God who girds me with strength and makes my way perfect?

⁷ Jehovah is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices and with my song I will praise him.
⁸ Jehovah is their strength and he is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.

³ Because you are my rock and my fortress. Therefore for your name's sake lead me and guide me. ⁴ Pluck me out of the net that they have laid secretly for me, because you are my stronghold.

² I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

⁶ My eyes will be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will minister to me.

¹⁰ Do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

¹² And I will strengthen them in Jehovah and they will walk up and down in his name, says Jehovah.

⁹ And he has said to me, My grace is enough for you; for my power is completed in weakness. Therefore I will rather gladly be boasting in my weaknesses, in order that the power of the Christ might reside upon me.

¹⁰ Furthermore, my brethren, be empowered in the Lord and in the dominion of his strength.

²¹ may he complete you in every good work, that you should practice his will, doing what is well pleasing in his sight in you, through Jesus Christ in whom is the glory, forevermore. Amen.

¹³ He made him ride on the high places of the earth and he ate the increase of the field and he made him to suck honey out of the rock and oil out of the flinty rock,

²⁵ Your bars will be iron and brass and as your days, so will your strength be.

¹⁸ And the three sons of Zeruiah were there, Joab and Abishai and Asahel. And Asahel was as light of foot as a wild roe.

¹⁶ He will dwell on high. His place of defense will be the munitions of rocks. His bread will be given. His waters will be sure.

¹⁴ then you will delight yourself in Jehovah and I will make you to ride upon the high places of the earth and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. For the mouth of Jehovah has spoken it.

¹⁹ Jehovah, the Lord, is my strength. And he makes my feet like female-deers' feet and will make me to walk upon my high places

³³ He makes my feet like the feet of female-deers and sets me upon my high places. ³⁴ He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of brass.

⁹ He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two. He burns the chariots in the fire.

¹ Praise Jehovah, my rock, who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight,

³ And I will kill* your bow out of your left hand and will cause your arrows to fall out of your right hand.

⁹ And those who dwell in the cities of Israel will go forth and will make fires of the weapons and burn them, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows and the hand staves and the spears. And they will make fires of them seven years, ¹⁰ so that they will take no wood out of the field, nor cut down any out of the forests, for they will make fires of the weapons. And they will plunder those who plundered them and rob those who robbed them, says the lord Jehovah.

² And I will make of you a great nation and I will bless you and make your name great and you will be a blessing.

¹⁷ that in blessing I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is upon the sea _shore and your seed will possess the gate of his enemies

³⁵ You have also given me the shield of your salvation and your right hand has held me up and your gentleness has made me great.

¹⁴ Jehovah increase you* more and more, you* and your* sons.

¹⁶ Upon all these things, when you have taken up the shield of the faith, in which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one; \ulnone\nosupersub

⁹ He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the wicked will be put to silence in darkness, for by strength no man will prevail.

¹ Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness. You have enlarged me in distress. Have mercy upon me and hear my prayer.

⁵ My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.

³⁶ You have enlarged my steps under me and my feet have not slipped.

¹⁸ When I said, My foot slips, your loving kindness, O Jehovah, held me up.

³ He will not allow your foot to slip. He who keeps you will not slumber.

¹² When you go, your steps will not be restricted. And if you run, you will not stumble.

¹⁸ Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
¹⁹ And David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand? And Jehovah said to David, Go up, for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your hand.
²⁰ And David came to Baal-perazim and David killed* them there. And he said, Jehovah has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim. ²¹ And they left their images there and David and his men took them away.
²² And the Philistines came up yet again and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim. ²³ And when David inquired of Jehovah, he said, You will not go up. Make a circuit behind them and come upon them opposite the mulberry trees. ²⁴ And it will be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then you will move yourself, for then Jehovah has gone out before you to kill* the army of the Philistines.
²⁵ And David did so, as Jehovah commanded him and killed* the Philistines from Geba until you come to Gezer.

¹ And after this it happened, that David killed* the Philistines and subdued them. And David took the bridle of the mother city out of the hand of the Philistines.
² And he killed* Moab and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground. And he measured two lines to put to death and one full line to keep alive. And the Moabites became servants to David and brought tribute.

¹³ And David got a name for him when he returned from slaying the Syrians in the Valley of Salt, even eighteen thousand men. ¹⁴ And he put garrisons in Edom. He put garrisons throughout all Edom and all the Edomites became servants to David. And Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.

¹⁴ And when the sons of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai and entered into the city. Then Joab returned from the sons of Ammon and came to Jerusalem.

⁸ Your hand will find out all your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you. ⁹ You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. Jehovah will swallow them up in his wrath and the fire will devour them.

³⁷ I will pursue my enemies and overtake them. Neither will I turn again till they are consumed.

¹ Jehovah says to my Lord, Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.

⁵ The Lord at your right hand will strike through kings in the day of his wrath. ⁶ He will judge among the nations. He will fill with dead bodies. He will strike through the head in many countries.

¹ For, behold, the day comes, it burns as a furnace and all the proud and all who work wickedness, will be stubble. And the day that comes will burn them up, says Jehovah of hosts, that it will leave them neither root nor branch.

³ And you* will tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your* feet in the day that I make, says Jehovah of hosts.

⁴⁹ And David put his hand in his bag and took from there a stone and slung it and killed* the Philistine in his forehead. And the stone sank into his forehead and he fell upon his face to the earth.
⁵⁰ So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone and killed* the Philistine and killed him. But there was no sword in the hand of David.
⁵¹ Then David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and drew it out of the sheath of it and killed him and cut off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

⁵ And David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines and brought away their cattle and killed them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.

³⁹ For you have girded me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

⁵ Through you we will push down our adversaries. Through your name we will tread them under who rise up against us.

⁵ I am Jehovah and there is none else. Besides me there is no God. I will gird you, though you have not known me,

¹⁴ And the sons of those who afflicted you will come bending to you. And all those who despised you will bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. And they will call you The city of Jehovah, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

¹¹ being empowered in all power, according to the dominion of his glory, for all endurance and patience with joy,

⁹ And they are singing a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the book and to open its seals, because you were slaughtered and bought us in your blood for God out of every tribe and language and people and nation.

⁸ Judah, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies. Your father's sons will bow down before you.

²⁷ I will send my terror before you and will destroy all the people to whom you will come and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you.

²⁴ And it happened, when they brought out those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your* feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near and put their feet upon the necks of them.

⁴⁰ You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me. ⁴¹ They cried, but there was none to save, even to Jehovah, but he answered them not.

¹⁴ But his citizens were hating him and sent an ambassador after him, saying, We do not wish that this one reign over us.

²⁷ However my enemies, those men who did not wish that I should reign over them, lead them here and slaughter them before me.

⁸ giving vengeance in a fire of flame to those who do not know God and to those who are not obeying the good-news of our Lord Jesus Christ, ⁹ who will be suffering-punishment, the sentence of everlasting utter-destruction away from the face of the Lord, and away from the glory of his strength,

⁶ And when Saul inquired of Jehovah, Jehovah answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.

⁹ Will God hear his cry when trouble comes upon him?

²⁸ Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me,

¹⁵ And when you* spread forth your* hands, I will hide my eyes from you*. Yes, when you* make many prayers, I will not hear; your* hands are full of blood.

³ Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel and say to them, The lord Jehovah says thus: Is it to inquire of me that you* have come? As I live, says the lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you*.

⁴ Then they will cry to Jehovah, but he will not answer them. Yes, he will hide his face from them at that time, just-as they have worked evil in their practices.

²² Many will be saying to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not: prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and practice many miracles in your name? ²³ And then I will confess to them, I never knew you. Depart from me, you who are working lawlessness.

²⁵ From whenever time the householder arose and locked the door and you, being outside, may begin to stand and to knock on the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
And when he has answered the knock, he will say to you, I do not know you or where you are from. ²⁶ Then you will begin to say, We ate and drank in your sight and you taught in our streets.

²⁶ I said, I would scatter them afar, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men,

⁷ For he did not leave to Jehoahaz of the people except fifty horsemen and ten chariots and ten thousand footmen, for the king of Syria destroyed them and made them like the dust in threshing.

⁴² Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mud of the streets.

⁵ Let them be as chaff before the wind and the messenger of Jehovah driving them on.

⁶ I will send him against a profane nation and against the people of my wrath. I will give him a charge, to take the spoil and to take the prey and to tread them down like the mud of the streets.

¹⁵ You have increased the nation, O Jehovah, you have increased the nation. You are glorified. You have enlarged all the borders of the land.

³⁵ Then the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver and the gold, was broken in pieces together and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors. And the wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them. And the stone that killed* the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

¹⁰ Then my enemy will see it and shame will cover her who said to me, Where is Jehovah your God? My eyes will see my desire upon her. Now she will be trodden down as the mud of the streets.

⁶ Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, says Jehovah. For I have spread you* abroad as the four winds of the heavens, says Jehovah.

⁵ And they will be as mighty men, treading down their enemies in the mud of the streets in the battle. And they will fight, because Jehovah is with them and the riders on horses will be confounded.

²⁴ And they will be falling by the edge of the sword and will be captured into all the nations, and Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles should be fulfilled.

¹³ And Jehovah will make you the head and not the tail. And you will only be above and you will not be beneath, if you will listen to the commandments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day, to observe and to do,

¹ Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David. And David grew stronger and stronger, but the house of Saul grew weaker and weaker.

¹ Then all the tribes of Israel came to David to Hebron and spoke, saying, Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.

¹ And after this it happened, that David killed* the Philistines and subdued them. And David took the bridle of the mother city out of the hand of the Philistines.
² And he killed* Moab and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground. And he measured two lines to put to death and one full line to keep alive. And the Moabites became servants to David and brought tribute.
³ David also killed* Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River. ⁴ And David took from him a thousand and seven hundred horsemen and twenty thousand footmen. And David hocked all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for a hundred chariots.
⁵ And when the Syrians of Damascus came to aid Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed* of the Syrians twenty-two thousand men. ⁶ Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus and the Syrians became servants to David and brought tribute. And Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.
⁷ And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem. ⁸ And from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceedingly much brass.
⁹ And when Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer, ¹⁰ then Toi sent Joram his son to king David to salute him and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him, for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver and vessels of gold and vessels of brass.
¹¹ These also king David dedicated to Jehovah with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued: ¹² of Syria and of Moab and of the sons of Ammon and of the Philistines and of Amalek and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

⁶ So the people went out into the field against Israel and the battle was in the forest of Ephraim. ⁷ And the people of Israel were struck there before the servants of David and there was a great slaughter there that day of twenty thousand men. ⁸ For the battle was there spread over the face of all the country and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.

⁹ And all the people were contending throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines. And now he fled out of the land from Absalom.

¹⁴ And he inclined the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, Return and all your servants.

¹ And there happened to be there a worthless fellow whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite. And he blew the trumpet and said, We have no portion in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, O Israel. ² So all the men of Israel went up from following David and followed Sheba the son of Bichri, but the men of Judah clung to their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem.

²² Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri and threw it out to Joab. And he blew the trumpet and they were dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.

¹ Why do the nations rage and the peoples meditate vain things? ² The kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together, against Jehovah and against his anointed, saying, ³ Let us break their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us.
⁴ He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will mock them. ⁵ Then he will speak to them in his wrath and distress them in his great displeasure.
⁶ Yet I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

⁸ Ask of me and I will give you the nations as your inheritance and the outermost parts of the earth as your possession.

⁴³ You have delivered me from the strifes of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known will serve me.

⁸ Moab is my wash pot. I will cast my shoe upon Edom. Philistia, shout because of me. ⁹ Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led me to Edom?

⁸ He will also have dominion from sea to sea and from the River to the ends of the earth.
⁹ Those who dwell in the wilderness will bow before him and his enemies will lick the dust.

⁶ He will judge among the nations. He will fill with dead bodies. He will strike through the head in many countries.

⁵ Behold, you will call a nation that you do not know. And a nation that does not know you will run to you because of Jehovah your God and for the Holy One of Israel, for he has glorified you.

¹² For that nation and kingdom that will not serve you will perish. Yes, those nations will be utterly wasted.

¹ I was manifested by those who did not ask for me. I am found by those who did not seek me. I said, Behold me, behold me, to a nation that was not called by my name.

¹⁴ And there was given him dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which will not pass away and his kingdom is one that will not be destroyed.

²³ And I will sow her to me in the earth. And I will have mercy upon her who had not obtained mercy. And I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people and they will say, My God.

²⁵ who through the mouth of our father David your young-servant, said, ‘Why do the Gentiles rage and the peoples meditate on empty things? ²⁶ The kings of the earth stood up and the rulers were gathered in the same place, against the Lord and against his Christ.’ ²⁷ For against truth, against your holy young-servant Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, together with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel, were gathered together ²⁸ to do as many things as your hand and your council predetermined to happen.

³⁰ The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you yourselves exterminated, having hanged him upon a tree. ³¹ This Jesus is the Author and Savior who God exalted to his right hand, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins.

²⁵ As he also says in Hosea, ‘I will be calling those who are not my people, my people, and those not beloved, beloved.’

¹² And again, Isaiah says, ‘There will be the root of Jesse and he who raised up to rule over the Gentiles; upon him the Gentiles will hope.’

¹⁵ And the seventh messenger sounded, and there became loud voices in heaven saying, The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ and he will be reigning forevermore.

⁴⁴ As soon as they hear of me they will obey me. The foreigners will submit themselves to me. ⁴⁵ The foreigners will fade away and will come trembling out of their borders.

³ Say to God, How awesome are your works! Through the greatness of your power your enemies will submit themselves to you.

¹⁵ (The haters of Jehovah pretend obedience to him, but their time is everlasting.)

³ Neither let the foreigner, who has joined himself to Jehovah, speak, saying, Jehovah will surely separate me from his people, nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

⁶ Also the foreigners who join themselves to Jehovah, to minister to him and to love the name of Jehovah, to be his servants, everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it and holds fast my covenant,

¹³ Now Simon himself also believed and was immersed, and was persevering with Philip. And viewing signs and great miracles which were happening, he was being astonished.

²¹ You have neither part nor inheritance in this word, for this heart of yours is not straight in God’s sight. ²² Therefore repent from this, your malice, and beseech God; if, then, the deliberation of your heart will be forgiven to you. ²³ For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of unrighteousness.

¹⁹ And men will go into the caves of the rocks and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.

²¹ to go into the caverns of the rocks and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Jehovah and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.

⁶ For we have all become as unclean and all our righteous acts are as a menstruation cloth. And we all fade as a leaf. And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.

³ And though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there. And though they are hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, from there I will command the serpent and it will bite them.

¹⁷ They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling things of the earth they will come trembling out of their borders. They will come with fear to Jehovah our God and will be afraid because of you.

¹¹ For the sun has risen together with the burning heat, and dried up the grass, and its flower fell and the beauty of its face perished. So shall the rich man also fade away in his pursuits.

³⁹ See now that I, even I, am he and there is no god with me. I kill and I make alive. I wound and I heal. And there is none that can deliver out of my hand. ⁴⁰ For I lift up my hand to heaven and say, As I live everlasting,

²⁵ But as for me I know that my Redeemer lives and at last he will stand up upon the earth.
