Now will I go again to fight with the prince of the Persians: As soon as I go forth, lo, the prince of Greekland shall come. ²¹ Nevertheless, I will show thee the thing that is fast noted in the scripture of truth. And as for all yonder matters, there is none that helpeth me in them, but Michael your prince.

¹ The time will come also, that the great prince Michael, which standeth on thy people side, shall arise up, for there shall come a time of trouble, such as never was, since there began to be any people, unto that same time. Then shall thy people be delivered, yea all those that be found written in the book.

¹ And he showed me Joshua the high priest, standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan stood at his righthand to resist him. ² And the LORD said unto Satan, 'The LORD reprove thee, thou Satan; yea, the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem, reprove thee. Is not this a brand taken out of the fire?'

¹² For we wrestle not against flesh and blood: but against rule, against power, and against worldly rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness for heavenly things.

¹⁰ and ye are complete in him, which is the head of all rule and power.

¹⁸ and therefore we would have come unto you, I Paul once and again: but Satan withstood us.

²² which is our righthand of God, and is gone into heaven: angels, power, and might subdued unto him.

⁹ Yet Michael the archangel, when he strove against the devil, and disputed the body of Moses, durst not give railing sentence, but said, "The Lord rebuke thee."

⁷ And there was great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon and the dragon fought and his angels,

¹ And Jacob called for his sons and said, "Come together, that I may tell you what shall happen you in the last days.

³⁰ In thy tribulation and when all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, thou shalt turn unto the LORD thy God, and shalt hearken unto his voice.

²¹ And then, when much mischief and tribulation is come upon them, this song shall answer before them, and be a witness. It shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their imagination which they go about even now before I have brought them into the land which I sware."

² It shall come to pass in the last days that the mount of the house of the LORD, shall be set in the top of the mountains, and shall be lifted up above the hills: and all nations shall resort thereto.

²⁸ Only God in heaven can open secrets; and he it is, that showeth the king Nebuchadnezzar what is for to come in the latter days. Thy dream, and that which thou hast seen in thine head upon thy bed, is this:

²² He informed me, and spake unto me, "O Daniel," said he, "I am now come, to make thee understand it:

¹ In the third year of king Cyrus of Persia, there was showed unto Daniel, otherwise called Balteshazzar, a matter: yea, a true matter, but it is yet a long time unto it. He understood the matter well, and perceived what the vision was.

⁵ But afterward shall the children of Israel convert, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king: and in the latter days they shall worship the LORD, and his loving-kindness.

¹ But in the latter days it will come to pass, that the hill of the LORD's house shall be set up higher than any mountains or hills: Yea, the people shall flow unto it,

³ for the vision is yet far off for a time, but at the last it shall come to pass, and not fail. And though he tarry, yet wait thou for him, for in very deed he will come, and not be slack.

¹ This understand, that in the last days shall come perilous times:

³ how shall we escape if we despise so great salvation? Which at the first began to be preached of the Lord himself, and afterward was confirmed unto us ward, by them that heard it;

²⁷ In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him which is escaped, that thou mayest speak, and be no more dumb: Yea, and thou shalt be their show token, that they may know how that I am the LORD."

²² Now the hand of the LORD had been upon me the evening before this man, which was escaped, came unto me, and had opened my mouth, until the morning that he came to me: yea he opened my mouth, so that I was no more dumb.

⁹ Yet heard I the voice of his words: and as soon as I heard it, faintness came upon me, and I fell down flat to the ground upon my face.

¹⁰ And Moses said unto the LORD, "O my Lord. I am not eloquent, no not in times past and namely since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow mouthed and slow tongued."

¹³ And he said, "O my Lord, send I pray thee whom thou wilt."

¹⁴ And he answered, "Nay, but I am the captain of the host of the LORD and am now come." And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and did reverence, and said unto him, "What sayeth my Lord unto his servant?"

¹³ And Gideon answered him, "Oh my Lord; if the LORD be with us, why is all this come upon us? Yea, and where be his miracles which our fathers told us of and said, 'The LORD brought us out of Egypt'? But now the LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites."

¹⁵ And he answered him, "Oh Lord, wherewith should I save Israel? Behold my kindred is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house."

⁸ Then Manoah made intercession to the LORD, and said, "I pray thee, my LORD, let the man of God which thou sentest come once more unto us and teach us what we shall do unto the lad when he is born."

¹⁸ For where much wisdom is, there is also great travail and disquietness; and the more knowledge a man hath, the more is his care.

⁷ and touched my mouth, and said, "Lo, this hath touched thy mouth, and thine unrighteousness is taken away, and thy sin is forgiven."

²⁶ Above the firmament that was over their heads, there was the fashion of a seat, as it had been made of Sapphire. Upon the seat there sat one like a man.

²⁷ But when I speak unto thee, then open thy mouth, and say, 'Thus sayeth the LORD God: whoso heareth, let him hear; who so will not, let him leave.' For it is an obstinate household."

¹⁵ "My heart was vexed, and I, Daniel, had a troubled spirit within me, and the visions of my head made me afraid:

¹⁵ Now when I, Daniel, had seen this vision, and sought for the understanding of it: behold, there stood before me a thing like unto a man.

¹⁷ So he came, and stood by me. But I was afraid at his coming, and fell down upon my face. Then said he unto me, "O thou son of man, mark well, for in the last time shall this vision be fulfilled."

⁵ I lift up mine eyes, and looked: and behold, a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded up with fine gold of Arabia: ⁶ His body was like the Chrisolite stone; his face, to look upon, was like lightning; his eyes as the flame of fire; his arms and feet were like fair glistering metal; but the voice of his words was like the voice of a multitude.

⁸ I was left there myself alone, and saw this great vision, so long till there remained no more strength within me: Yea I lost my colour clean, I wasted away, and my strength was gone. ⁹ Yet heard I the voice of his words: and as soon as I heard it, faintness came upon me, and I fell down flat to the ground upon my face. ¹⁰ And behold a hand touched me, which set me up upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands,

¹⁷ How may my lord's servant then talk with my lord? Seeing there is no strength in me, so that I cannot take my breath?" ¹⁸ Upon this there touched me, again, one much like a man, and comforted me,

⁸ I heard it well, but I understood it not. Then said I, "O my Lord, what shall happen after that?"

⁶⁴ And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue also, and he spake lauding God.

¹⁵ For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, where against all your adversaries shall not be able to speak nor resist.

²⁸ Thomas answered and said unto him, "My Lord, and my God."

⁷ Nevertheless, he made himself of no reputation, and took on him the shape of a servant, and became like unto men, and was found in his apparel as a man. ⁸ He humbled himself and became obedient unto the death, even the death of the cross.

¹³ And in the midst of the candlesticks, one like unto the son of man clothed with a linen garment down to the ground, and gird about the paps with a golden girdle.

²⁰ and say moreover. 'Behold thy servant Jacob cometh after us.'" For he said, "I will appease his wrath with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see him myself, so peradventure he will receive me to grace."

¹⁰ and saw the God of Israel, and under his feet as it were a brick work of sapphire, and as it were the fashion of heaven when it is clear, ¹¹ and upon the nobles of the children of Israel he set not his hand. And when they had seen God they ate and drank.

²⁰ And he said furthermore, "Thou mayest not see my face, for there shall no man see me and live."

²² And when Gideon perceived that it was an angel, he said, "Alas my Lord Jehovah, that I have seen an angel of the LORD face to face."

²¹ But the angel of the LORD did no more appear unto Manoah and his wife. And then Manoah knew that it was an angel of the LORD, ²² and said unto his wife, "We shall surely die, because we have seen God!" ²³ But his wife said unto him, "If the LORD would kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a meat offering of our hands; neither would he have showed us all these things, nor would have told us as he hath of things to come."

¹ In the same year that king Uzziah died, I saw the LORD sitting upon a high and glorious seat, and his train filled the temple. ² From above flickered the Seraphims, whereof every one had six wings: With twain each covered his face, with twain his feet, and with twain did he fly. ³ They cried also each one to other on this manner: "Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of Hosts! The whole world is full of his glory!" ⁴ Yea, the joists and doorchecks moved at their crying, and the house was full of smoke. ⁵ Then I said, "O woe is me! For I am lost: inasmuch as I am a man of unclean lips, and dwell among people that hath unclean lips also. For mine eyes have seen the King and LORD of Hosts."

⁴³ He said unto them, "How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, ⁴⁴ 'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand: till I make thine enemies thy footstool.'

³⁶ For David himself, inspired with the holy ghost, said, 'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand till I make thine enemies thy foot stool.'

¹⁸ No man hath seen God at any time. The only begotten son, which is in the father's bosom, hath declared him.

¹⁵ And David saw that Saul was come out, to seek his life, while David was in the wilderness of Ziph in a thicket.

⁵ I should comfort you with my mouth, and release your pain with the talking of my lips.

⁶ Will he plead against me with his great power and strength? No, but he will make me the stronger.

³ And therefore strengthen the weak hands, and comfort the feeble knees. ⁴ Say unto them that are of a fearful heart, "Be of good cheer, and fear not. Behold, your God cometh, to take vengeance, and to reward, God cometh his own self, and will deliver you."

¹⁰ And behold a hand touched me, which set me up upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands,

³² But I have prayed for thee that thy faith fail not. And when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren."

⁴³ And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, comforting him.

²³ and departed unto Antioch, and when he had tarried there a while, he departed, and went over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia by order, strengthening all the disciples.

⁹ and he said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee. For my strength is made perfect through weakness." Very gladly therefore will I rejoice of my weakness, that the strength of Christ may dwell in me. ¹⁰ Therefore have I delectation in infirmities, in rebukes, in need, in persecutions, in anguish, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

¹⁶ that ye may be strengthened with might by his spirit in the inner man,

¹³ I can do all things through the help of Christ, which strengtheneth me.

¹¹ strengthened with all might, through his glorious power, unto all patience, and long suffering, with joyfulness,

⁶ Be strong and bold: for unto this people shalt thou divide the land which I sware unto their fathers to give them. ⁷ Above all things, be strong and harden thyself, to observe and to do according to all the laws which Moses my servant commanded thee. Turn there from neither to the righthand, nor to the left: that thou mayest have understanding in all thou takest in hand.

⁹ Behold, I have said unto thee, be strong and bold: neither fear, nor dread. For the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."

²³ And the LORD said unto him, peace be with thee and fear not, for thou shalt not die.

⁹ And said unto him, "Go and lie down: and if he call thee again then say, 'Speak on LORD, for thy servant heareth.'" And Samuel went and laid him down in his place. ¹⁰ And the LORD came and stood and called as before, "Samuel, Samuel." And Samuel said, "Speak on, for thy servant heareth thee."

³ When I call upon thee, thou hearest me, and endowest my soul with much strength.

¹ But now, the LORD that made thee O Jacob, and he that fashioned thee O Israel, sayeth thus, "Fear not, for I will defend thee. I have called thee by thy name, thou art mine own. ² If thou goest through the water, I will be with thee, that the strong floods should not pluck thee away. When thou walkest in the fire, it shall not burn thee, and the flame shall not kindle upon thee.

²³ For as soon as thou begannest to make thy prayer, it was so devised, and therefore am I come to show thee. And why? For thou art a man greatly beloved. Wherefore, ponder the matter well, that thou mayest learn to understand the vision.

¹¹ saying unto me, "O Daniel, thou well beloved man: take good heed of the words, that I shall say unto thee, and stand right up, for unto thee am I now sent." And when he had said these words, I stood up trembling. ¹² Then said he unto me, "Fear not, Daniel: for why? Since the first day that thou set thine heart to understand, and didst chasten thyself before thy God: thy words have been heard. And I had come unto thee, when thou begannest to speak,

⁴ Nevertheless be of good cheer, O Zerubbabel, sayeth the LORD; be of good comfort, O Joshua thou son of Jozadak, high priest: take good hearts unto you also, all ye people of the land, sayeth the LORD of Hosts,

⁹ "Thus sayeth the LORD of Hosts: let your hands be strong, ye that now hear these words by the mouth of the prophets which be in these days that the foundation is laid upon the LORD of Hosts' house, that the temple may be builded.

¹³ And it shall come to pass, that like as ye were a curse among the Heathen, O ye house of Judah and ye house of Israel: Even so will I deliver you, that ye shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong.

³⁶ As they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and said unto them, "Peace be with you." ³⁷ And they were abashed, and afraid, supposing that they had seen a spirit. ³⁸ And he said unto them, "Why are ye troubled? And why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

³ and his sisters sent unto him, saying, "Lord behold, he whom thou lovest is sick."

⁵ Jesus loved Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.

³⁶ Then said the Jews, "Behold how he loved him."

²⁷ Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your hearts be grieved, neither fear ye.

⁹ "AS the father hath loved me, even so have I loved you. Continue in my love. ¹⁰ If ye shall keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love: even as I have kept my father's commandments, and abide in his love. ¹¹ These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. ¹² This is my commandment: that ye love together as I have loved you. ¹³ Greater love than this hath no man, than that a man bestow his life for his friends. ¹⁴ Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

³³ These words have I spoken unto you that in me ye might have peace. For in the world shall ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

²⁶ When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple standing whom he loved, he said unto his mother, "Woman behold thy son."

¹³ Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, and be strong.

⁹ and he said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee. For my strength is made perfect through weakness." Very gladly therefore will I rejoice of my weakness, that the strength of Christ may dwell in me.

¹⁰ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

¹ Thou, therefore, my son be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

³⁶ Thus the angel went forth, and slew of the Assyrians host, a hundred and eighty five thousand. And when men arose up early, at Jerusalem: Behold, all lay full of dead bodies.

⁶ Then I looked, and behold, there was another like unto a leopard: this had wings as a fowl, even four upon the back. This beast had four heads, and there was power given him.

⁵ I took heed unto this, and then came there a he goat from the west over the whole earth, and touched not the ground. This goat had a marvelous goodly horn betwixt his eyes, ⁶ and came unto the ram, that had the two horns, whom I had seen afore by the river side, and ran fiercely upon him with his might. ⁷ I saw him draw nigh unto the ram, being very fierce upon him: yea he gave him such a stroke, that he brake his two horns. Neither had the ram so much strength as to stand before him: but he cast him down, trod him under his feet: and no man was able to deliver the ram out of his power. ⁸ The goat waxed exceedingly great, and when he was at the strongest, his great horn was broken also. Then grew there another four such like in the stead, toward the four winds of the heaven.

²¹ but the goat is the king of Greek land: the great horn that stood betwixt his eyes, that is the principal king.

¹³ had not the prince over the kingdom of the Persians withstood me twenty one days. But lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; him have I left by the king of Persia,

² and now will I show thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia, but the fourth shall be far richer than they all. And when he is in the chiefest power of his riches, he shall provoke every man against the realm of Greekland. ³ Then shall there arise yet a mighty king, that shall rule with great dominion, and do what him list. ⁴ And as soon as his kingdom cometh up, it shall be destroyed, and divided toward the four winds of the heaven. They that come after him shall not have such power and dominion as he: but his kingdom shall be scattered: yea, even among others than those.

²³ And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the honour, and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

²² Let the gods come forth themselves, and show us the things that are past, what they be: let them declare them unto us, that we may take them to heart, and know them hereafter. ²³ Either, let them show us things for to come, and tell us what shall be done hereafter: so shall we know, that they be gods. Show something, either good or bad: so will we both knowledge the same, and tell it out.

⁸ Bring forth that people which is blind, yet hath eyes; which is deaf yet hath ears. ⁹ All nations shall come in one, and be gathered in one people. But which among yonder gods shall declare such things, and tell us what is to come? Let them bring their witnesses, so shall they be free: for then men shall hear it, and say, "It is truth."

²⁵ Understand this then, and mark it well: That from the time it shall be concluded to go and repair Jerusalem again, unto Christ, the anointed Prince: there shall be seven weeks.Then shall the streets and walls be builded again sixty two weeks, but with hard troublous time.

¹ And in the first year of Darius of Media, I stood by him, to comfort him and to strength him, ² and now will I show thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia, but the fourth shall be far richer than they all. And when he is in the chiefest power of his riches, he shall provoke every man against the realm of Greekland. ³ Then shall there arise yet a mighty king, that shall rule with great dominion, and do what him list. ⁴ And as soon as his kingdom cometh up, it shall be destroyed, and divided toward the four winds of the heaven. They that come after him shall not have such power and dominion as he: but his kingdom shall be scattered: yea, even among others than those. ⁵ "And the king of the south shall be mighty; and one of his princes: and he shall prevail against him and bear rule. His dominion shall be a great dominion. ⁶ But after certain years they shall be joined together; and the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the North for to make friendship. But she shall not obtain the power of that arm, neither shall she be able to endure through his might: but she, and such as brought her - yea, and he that begat her, and comforted her for his time - shall be delivered up. ⁷ Out of the branches of her root, there shall stand one up in his stead: which with power of armies shall go through the king's land of the north, and handle him according to his strength. As for their Idols and princes, with their costly Jewels of gold and silver, ⁸ he shall carry them away captives into Egypt, and he shall prevail against the king of the north certain years. ⁹ And when he is come into the king's realm of the south, he shall be fain to turn again into his own land. ¹⁰ Wherefore his sons shall be displeased, and shall gather together a mighty great host of people: and one of them shall come, and go through like a water flood: then shall he return, and go forth with defying and boasting unto his own land. ¹¹ Then the king of the south shall be angry, and shall come forth to fight against the king of the north: Yea, he shall bring a great multitude of people together, and a great heap shall be given into his hand. ¹² These shall he carry away with great pride, forsomuch as he hath cast down so many thousands, nevertheless he shall not prevail.

⁷ Now doth the LORD God no manner of thing, but he telleth his secret before unto his servants the prophets.

¹⁵ And to this agreeth the words of the prophets, as it is written,

¹⁸ Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.
