¹ And when they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, to the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, ² saying to them, "Go into the village before you, and immediately you shall find a donkey tied, and a colt with her: Loose them, and bring them to Me. ³ And if any man says anything to you, you shall say, 'The Lord has need of them'; and he will immediately send them." ⁴ All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, ⁵ "Tell the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your King comes to you, meek, and sitting upon a donkey, and a colt the foal of a donkey.' " ⁶ And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them, ⁷ and brought the donkey, and the colt, put their clothes on them, and they set Him upon them. ⁸ And a very large multitude spread their clothes on the road; others cut down branches from the trees, and strew them on the road. ⁹ And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried out, saying: "Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest." ¹⁰ And when He came into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, "Who is this?" ¹¹ Moreover the multitude said, "This is Jesus the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee." ¹² And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of those who sold doves, ¹³ and said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called the house of prayer'; But you have made it a 'den of thieves.' " ¹⁴ Then the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple; and He healed them. ¹⁵ But when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that He did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, "Hosanna to the Son of David"; they were intensely displeased, ¹⁶ and said to Him, "Do You hear what these say?" And Jesus said to them, "Yes; have you never read, 'Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have perfected praise'?" ¹⁷ Then He left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and He lodged there. ¹⁸ Now in the morning as He returned to the city, He was hungry. ¹⁹ And when He saw a fig tree beside the road, He came to it, and found nothing on it except leaves only, and said to it, "Let no fruit grow on you from this time forward forever." And immediately the fig tree withered away. ²⁰ So when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, "How soon the fig tree is withered away!" ²¹ Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, If you have faith, and do not doubt, you shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if you shall say to this mountain, 'Be removed, and be cast into the sea'; it shall be done. ²² And all things, whatever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive." ²³ And when He came into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him as He was teaching, and said, "By what authority do you do these things? And who gave You this authority?" ²⁴ And Jesus answered and said to them, "I will also ask you one thing, which if you tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things. ²⁵ The baptism of John, where was it from? From heaven, or from men?" And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven'; He will say to us, 'Why then did you not believe him?' ²⁶ But if we say, 'From men'; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet." ²⁷ Therefore they answered Jesus, and said, "We cannot tell." And He said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things. ²⁸ But what do you think? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, 'Son, go work today in my vineyard.' ²⁹ He answered and said, 'I will not': But afterward he repented, and went. ³⁰ Then he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, 'I will go, sir': And did not go. ³¹ Which of those two did the will of his father?" They said to Him, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Truly I say to you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. ³² For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him: But the publicans and the harlots believed him: And you, when you had seen it, did not repent afterward, that you might believe him. ³³ Hear another parable: There was a certain householder who planted a vineyard, and hedged it all around, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and leased it out to vinedressers, and went into a far country: ³⁴ Now when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the vinedressers, that they might receive the fruit of it. ³⁵ But the vinedressers took his servants, and beat one, killed another, and stoned yet another. ³⁶ Again, he sent other servants more than the first: And they did likewise to them. ³⁷ But last of all he sent his son to them, saying, 'They will reverence my son.' ³⁸ But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, 'This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.' ³⁹ And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. ⁴⁰ Therefore when the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers? ⁴¹ They said to Him, "He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will lease out his vineyard to other vinedressers, which shall give him the fruits in their seasons." ⁴² Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the scriptures: 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the head of the corner: This is the LORD'S doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'? ⁴³ Therefore I say to you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits of it. ⁴⁴ And whoever falls on this stone shall be broken: But on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder." ⁴⁵ And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard His parables, they perceived that He spoke about them. ⁴⁶ But when they sought to lay hands on Him, they feared the multitude, because they held Him as a prophet.

¹ And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, He said to His disciples, ² "You know that after two days is the Feast of the Passover, and the Son of Man is betrayed to be crucified." ³ Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people assembled together at the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, ⁴ and consulted that they might take Jesus through cunning, and kill Him. ⁵ But they said, "Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people." ⁶ Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, ⁷ there a woman came to Him having an alabaster box of very precious fragrant ointment, and poured it on His head, as He sat to eat. ⁸ But when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "For what purpose is this waste? ⁹ For this fragrant ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor." ¹⁰ When Jesus understood this, He said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work upon Me." ¹¹ For you always have the poor with you; but Me you do not have always. ¹² For as she has poured this fragrant ointment on My body, she did it for My burial. ¹³ Truly I say to you, Wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, there also shall be told what this woman has done, as a memorial of her." ¹⁴ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests, ¹⁵ and said to them, "What will you give me, and I will deliver Him to you?" And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. ¹⁶ Therefore, from that time he sought opportunity to betray Him. ¹⁷ Now on the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying to Him, "Where would you like that we prepare for You to eat the Passover?" ¹⁸ And He said, "Go into the city to such a man, and say to him, 'The Master says, "My time is at hand; I will keep the Passover at your house with My disciples." ' " ¹⁹ Then the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the Passover. ²⁰ Now when the evening had come, He sat down with the twelve. ²¹ And as they were eating, He said, "Truly I say to you, That one of you shall betray me." ²² And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and every one of them began to say to Him, "Lord, is it I?" ²³ And He answered and said, "He who dips his hand with Me in the dish, the same shall betray Me. ²⁴ The Son of Man goes as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born." ²⁵ Then Judas, who betrayed Him, answered and said, "Master, is it I?" He said to him, "You have said it." ²⁶ And as they ate, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; this is My body." ²⁷ Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you;

² And when they had bound Him, they led Him away, and delivered Him to the governor Pontius Pilate.

¹ Then in the morning without delay, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, carried Him away, and delivered Him to Pilate.

¹⁷ Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life, that I might take it again. ¹⁸ No man takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment I have received from My Father."

³² The portion of the scripture which he read was this, "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb mute before his shearer, so He did not open His mouth:

¹³ Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: For it is written, "Cursed is everyone that hangs on a tree":

² and walk in love, as Christ also has loved us, and has given Himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.

⁷ But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Himself the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: ⁸ And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross.

²⁸ So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and to those that look for Him He shall appear the second time without sin to salvation.

⁶ All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. ⁷ He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He did not open his mouth: He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is silent, so He does not open his mouth. ⁸ He was taken from prison and from judgment: And who shall declare His generation? For He was cut off out of the land of the living: For the transgression of My people was He stricken. ⁹ And He made His grave with the wicked, and with the rich in His death; because He had done no violence, neither was any deceit in His mouth. ¹⁰ Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief: When you shall make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in His hand. ¹¹ He shall see of the travail of His soul, and shall be satisfied: By His knowledge my righteous servant shall justify many; for He shall bear their iniquities. ¹² Therefore I will divide to Him a portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil with the strong; because He has poured out His soul to death: And He was numbered with the transgressors; and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

²¹ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar? ²² Do you see how faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? ²³ And the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him as righteousness": And he was called the Friend of God.

⁹ And the angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands." ¹⁰ And the angel of the LORD said to her, "I will multiply your seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude."

¹⁷ And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar? Fear not; for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.

¹ And it came to pass after these things, that God tempted Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham": And he said, "Behold, here I am."

¹⁰ And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, "Samuel, Samuel." Then Samuel answered, "Speak, for Your servant hears."

⁴ Then he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?"

¹⁴ And when we had all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking to me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, 'Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the prods.'

¹¹ And Abraham said, "Because I thought, surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.

² And He said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and get yourselves into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell you of."

⁵ because that Abraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws."

¹⁸ And Joseph said to them the third day, "Do this, and live; for I fear God:

²⁰ And Moses said to the people, "Do not fear: For God has come to prove you, and that His fear may be before your faces, that you do not sin."

²⁴ Only fear the LORD, and serve Him in truth with all your heart: For consider what great things He has done for you. ²⁵ But if you shall still do wickedly, you shall be consumed, both you and your king."

²² And Samuel said, "Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

¹⁵ But the former governors that had been before me were chargeable to the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, beside forty shekels of silver; yes, even their servants bore rule over the people: But so did not I, because of the fear of God.

¹⁹ He shall deliver you in six troubles: Yes, in seven there shall no evil touch you.

²⁸ And to man he said, "Behold, the fear of the LORD, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

⁶ For the LORD knows the way of the righteous: But the way of the ungodly shall perish.

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

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

¹⁴ The secret of the LORD is with those that fear Him; and He will show them His covenant.

¹⁰ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: A good understanding have all those who do His commandments: His praise endures forever.

¹¹ The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear Him, in those that hope in His mercy.

⁷ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

¹² Though a sinner do evil a hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet I know surely that it shall be well with those who fear God, which fear before Him: ¹³ But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he does not fear before God.

¹³ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: For this is the whole duty of man.

⁵ they have also built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I did not commanded, nor spoke it, neither did it come into My mind:

⁴⁰ And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from Me.

⁶ With what shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the high God? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old? ⁷ Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? ⁸ He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

² But to you that fear My name, the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; and you all shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

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

³⁷ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me: And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. ³⁸ And he who does not take up his cross, and follow after Me, is not worthy of Me.

²⁴ Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.

²⁹ And everyone who has forsaken houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

³¹ Then the churches had rest throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, were multiplied.

¹² For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what a man has, and not according to what he does not have.

²⁸ Therefore, we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

¹⁸ Yes, a man may say, "You have faith, and I have works": Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

²¹ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered Isaac his son upon the altar? ²² Do you see how faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

⁵ Then a voice came out of the throne, saying, "Praise our God, all you His servants, and you that fear Him, both small and great."

⁸ And Abraham said, "My son, God will provide Himself a lamb for a burnt offering": So they both went on together.

⁶ Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; You have opened my ears: Burnt offering and sin offering you have not required. ⁷ Then I said, "See, I come: In the volume of the book it is written of me, ⁸ I delight to do Your will, O my God: Yes, Your law is within my heart."

¹⁹ Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one, and said, "I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. ²⁰ I have found David My servant; with My holy oil I have anointed him:

²¹ And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, "This is the way, walk in it, when you turn to the right hand side, and when you turn to the left.

⁷ Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, as you are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: ⁸ Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

⁹ But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raises the dead: ¹⁰ Who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver: In whom we trust that He will yet deliver us;

¹³ And she called the name of the LORD that spoke to her, You are 'God that sees me': For she said, "Have I also looked here at Him that sees me?" ¹⁴ For this reason the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.Beerlahairoi; that is, The well of Him that lives and sees me

¹³ And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.

¹⁹ And he called the name of that place Bethel: But the name of that city was originally called Luz.Bethel; that is, The house of God

³⁰ And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved."Peniel; that is, The face of God

¹⁵ And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:Jehovahnissi; that is, The LORD my banner

³⁶ For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he sees that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.

²⁴ Then Gideon built an altar there to the LORD, and called it Jehovahshalom: To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.Jehovahshalom; that is, The LORD send peace

¹² Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, "The LORD has helped us until now."

⁴ Our fathers trusted in You: They trusted, and You delivered them. ⁵ They cried out to You, and were delivered: They trusted in You, and were not confounded.

³⁵ It was eighteen thousand measures all around: And the name of the city from that day forward shall be, The LORD is there."The LORD is there; or in the Hebrew, Jehovahshammah

¹⁷ If that is the case, our God Whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. ¹⁸ But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods nor worship the golden image which you have set up." ¹⁹ Then Nebuchadnezzar was full of fury, and the expression of his face was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: Therefore he spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was usually heated. ²⁰ And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. ²¹ Then these men were bound in their coats, their trousers, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. ²² Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire slew those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. ²³ And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. ²⁴ Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and spoke, and said to his counselors, "Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?" They answered and said to the king, "True, O king." ²⁵ He answered and said, "Look, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God."

¹⁰ Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: For now you shall go forth out of the city, and you shall dwell in the field, and you shall even go to Babylon; there you shall be delivered; there the LORD shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.

¹⁴ And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.

⁸ For we do not intend, brethren, to have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life:

¹⁶ And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen among angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

² And I will make a great nation of you, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing:

⁹ The covenant which He made with Abraham, and His oath to Isaac;

²³ I have sworn by Myself, the word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That to Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear an oath.

¹³ For I have sworn by Myself", said the LORD, "that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all her cities shall be perpetual wastes."

¹⁴ The LORD of hosts has sworn by Himself, saying, "Surely I will fill you with men, as with locusts; and they shall lift up a shout against you."

⁸ The Lord GOD has sworn by Himself, says the LORD the God of hosts, "I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: Therefore I will deliver up the city with all that is in it.

⁷³ the oath which He swore to our father Abraham,

¹³ For the promise, that he would be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. ¹⁴ For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of no effect:

¹³ For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by none greater, He swore by Himself, ¹⁴ saying, "Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you."

¹⁶ And I will make your seed as the dust of the earth: So that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then your seed shall also be numbered.

⁵ And he brought him forth abroad, and said, "Look now toward heaven, and count the stars, if you are able to number them": And He said to him, "So shall your seed be."

⁶ And I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come out of you.

⁶⁰ And they blessed Rebekah, and said to her, "You are our sister, be the mother of thousands of millions, and let your seed possess the gate of those which hate them."

⁴ and I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give to your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

²⁸ Therefore God give you of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and wine: ²⁹ Let people serve you, and nations bow down to you: Be lord over your brothers, and let your mother's sons bow down to you: Cursed be everyone that curses you, and blessed be he that blesses you."

³ And God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a multitude of people;

¹⁴ and your seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: And in you and in your seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. ¹⁵ And behold, I am with you, and will keep you in every place to which you go, and will bring you back again into this land; for I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you." ¹⁶ And Jacob awoke out of his sleep, and he said, "Surely the LORD is in this place; and I did not know it." ¹⁷ And he was afraid, and said, "How frightful is this place! This is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven." ¹⁸ And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it. ¹⁹ And he called the name of that place Bethel: But the name of that city was originally called Luz.Bethel; that is, The house of God ²⁰ And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on, ²¹ so that I come back again to my father's house in peace; then the LORD shall be my God: ²² And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: And out of all that You shall give me I will surely give the tenth to You."

¹² And You said, 'I will surely do you good, and make your seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.' "

²⁵ Even by the God of your father, Who shall help you; and by the Almighty, Who shall bless you with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lies below, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb: ²⁶ The blessings of your father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors to the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: They shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brothers.

¹⁷ I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not near: There shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Scepter shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. ¹⁸ And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly. ¹⁹ Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remains of the city.

¹⁰ The LORD your God has multiplied you, and behold, you are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

¹⁹ Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out to the elders of his city, and to the gate of his place;

² And all these blessings shall come on you, and overtake you, if you shall hearken to the voice of the LORD your God. ³ Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the field. ⁴ Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your ground, and the fruit of your domestic beasts, the increase of your cows, and the flocks of your sheep. ⁵ Blessed shall be your basket and your store. ⁶ Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. ⁷ The LORD shall cause your enemies that rise up against you to be smitten before your face: They shall come out against you one way, and flee before you seven ways. ⁸ The LORD shall command the blessing on you in your storehouses, and in all that you set your hand to; and he shall bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you. ⁹ The LORD shall establish you a holy people to himself, as he has sworn to you, if you shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and walk in his ways. ¹⁰ And all people of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of you. ¹¹ And the LORD shall make you plenteous in goods, in the fruit of your body, and in the fruit of your domestic beasts, and in the fruit of your ground, in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give you. ¹² The LORD shall open to you his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain to your land in his season, and to bless all the work of your hand: And you shall lend to many nations, and you shall not borrow. ¹³ And the LORD shall make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall be above only, and you shall not be beneath; if that you listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day, to observe and to do them:

¹ Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying, ² moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you, and all this people, to the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel. ³ Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread on, that I have given to you, as I said to Moses. ⁴ From the wilderness and this Lebanon even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast. ⁵ There shall not any man be able to stand before you all the days of your life: As I was with Moses, so I will be with you: I will not fail you, nor forsake you. ⁶ Be strong and of a good courage: For to this people shall you divide for an inheritance the land, which I swore to their fathers to give them. ⁷ Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you: Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. ⁸ This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it: For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success. ⁹ Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be you dismayed: For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. ¹⁰ Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,

¹ And after this it came to pass that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: And David took Methegammah out of the hand of the Philistines. ² And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines measured he to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And so the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts. ³ David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates. ⁴ And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: And David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for a hundred chariots. ⁵ And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succor Hadadezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men. ⁶ Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: And the Syrians became servants to David, and brought gifts. And the LORD preserved 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 When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host 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 smitten him: For Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass: ¹¹ Which also king David did dedicate to the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued; ¹² of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah. ¹³ And David got him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, being eighteen thousand men. ¹⁴ And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all they of Edom became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David wherever he went. ¹⁵ And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice to all his people. ¹⁶ And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder; ¹⁷ and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Seraiah was the scribe; ¹⁸ and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief rulers.

¹ And it came to pass after this, that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead. ² Then said David, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon. ³ And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Think you that David does honor your father, that he has sent comforters to you? Has not David rather sent his servants to you, to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it? ⁴ Why Hanun took David's servants, and shaved off the one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away. ⁵ When they told it to David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed: And the king said, "Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return. ⁶ And when the children of Ammon saw that they stank before David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Bethrehob and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and of king Maacah a thousand men, and of Ishtob twelve thousand men. ⁷ And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men. ⁸ And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entering in of the gate: And the Syrians of Zoba, and of Rehob, and Ishtob, and Maacah, were by themselves in the field. ⁹ When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind, he chose of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians: ¹⁰ And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abishai his brother, that he might put them in array against the children of Ammon. ¹¹ And he said, "If the Syrians be too strong for me, then you shall help me: But if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then I will come and help you. ¹² Be of good courage, and let us play the men for our people, and for the cities of our God: And the LORD do that which seems him good. ¹³ And Joab drew near, and the people that were with him, to the battle against the Syrians: And they fled before him. ¹⁴ And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, then fled they also before Abishai, and entered into the city. So Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem. ¹⁵ And when the Syrians saw that they were smitten before Israel, they gathered themselves together. ¹⁶ And Hadarezer sent, and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the river: And they came to Helam; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them. ¹⁷ And when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him. ¹⁸ And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew the men of seven hundred chariots of the Syrians, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, who died there. ¹⁹ And when all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were smitten before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more.

²⁶ And king Solomon made a navy of ships in Eziongeber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red sea, in the land of Edom.

⁸ Ask of Me, and I shall give You the heathen for Your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for Your possession. ⁹ You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.' "

⁸ He shall also have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth. ⁹ Those that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before Him; and His enemies shall lick the dust.

²² and have given them this land, which You swore to their fathers to give them, "a land flowing with milk and honey";

²² As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: So I will multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites who minister to Me.'

⁴⁴ And in the days of these kings the God of heaven shall set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: And the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. ⁴⁵ In as much as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what shall come to pass in time to come: And the dream is certain, and the interpretation of it sure."

⁹ For her wound is incurable; for it has come to Judah; it has come to the gate of My people, even to Jerusalem.

⁶⁸ "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for He has visited and redeemed His people, ⁶⁹ and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David; ⁷⁰ as He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets, who have been since the world began: ⁷¹ That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all who hate us; ⁷² to perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember His holy covenant; ⁷³ the oath which He swore to our father Abraham, ⁷⁴ that He would grant to us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve Him without fear, ⁷⁵ in holiness and righteousness before Him, all the days of our life.

⁵⁷ But thanks be to God, which gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

¹⁵ Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ; and He shall reign forever and ever."

³ And I will bless those that bless you, and curse him that curses you: And in you all families of the earth shall be blessed."

¹⁸ seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

³ And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.

¹⁰ And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.

⁴ and I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give to your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; ⁵ because that Abraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws."

³⁰ For which reason the LORD God of Israel says, 'I said indeed that your house, and the house of your father, should walk before Me forever': But now the LORD says, 'Far be it from Me; for those that honor Me I will honor, and those that despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.

¹⁷ His name shall endure forever: His name shall be continued as long as the sun: And men shall be blessed in Him: All nations shall call Him blessed.

²³ But this thing I commanded them, saying, 'Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people: And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well to you.

²⁵ You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, 'And in your seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.'

³ concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

⁸ And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, "In you shall all nations be blessed." ⁹ So then those who are of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

¹⁶ Now the promises were made to Abraham and his seed. He does not say, "And to seeds", as of many; but as of one, "And to your seed", which is Christ.

¹⁸ For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise: But God gave it to Abraham by promise.

²⁸ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond-servant nor free, there is neither male nor female: For you are all one in Christ Jesus. ²⁹ And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

¹ Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. ² For by it the elders obtained a good report. ³ Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. ⁴ By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: And by it he being dead still speaks. ⁵ By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; "and was not found, because God had translated him": For before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. ⁶ But without faith it is impossible to please Him: For he that comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him. ⁷ By faith Noah, being warned by God of things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. ⁸ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out into a place which he should afterwards receive as an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going. ⁹ By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: ¹⁰ And he looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God. ¹¹ Through faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised. ¹² Therefore even from just one man, and him as good as dead, were born so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore. ¹³ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them far off, and were persuaded by them, embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. ¹⁴ For those that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. ¹⁵ And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from which they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. ¹⁶ But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly: Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: For He has prepared a city for them. ¹⁷ By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: And he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, ¹⁸ of whom it was said, "In Isaac shall your seed be called": ¹⁹ Concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from where he also received him in parable form. ²⁰ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. ²¹ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed both of the sons of Joseph; and worshiped, leaning upon the top of his staff. ²² By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel; and gave commands concerning his bones. ²³ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's command. ²⁴ By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; ²⁵ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; ²⁶ esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: For he had respect for the recompense of the reward. ²⁷ By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: For he endured, as seeing Him who is invisible. ²⁸ Through faith he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. ²⁹ By faith they passed through the Red Sea as by dry land: Which the Egyptians attempting to do were drowned. ³⁰ By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed around seven days. ³¹ By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those that did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace. ³² And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and Barak, and Samson, and Jephthah; also of David, and Samuel, and the prophets: ³³ Who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, ³⁴ quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. ³⁵ Women received their dead raised to life again: And others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: ³⁶ And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yes, moreover of chains and imprisonment: ³⁷ They were stoned, they were sawn into parts, were tempted, were slain with the sword: They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; ³⁸ (of whom the world was not worthy): They wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. ³⁹ And all these, having obtained a good report through faith, did not receive the promise: ⁴⁰ God having provided some better thing for us, that they should not be made perfect without us.

³¹ For this reason he called that place Beersheba; because both of them swore an oath there.Beersheba; that is, The well of the oath

²⁸ and Hazarshual, and Beersheba, and Bizjothjah,

¹ Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was gathered together as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to the LORD in Mizpeh.

²⁶ And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

²⁹ And Abram and Nahor took themselves wives: The name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.

¹⁰ And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: And he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.

¹⁵ And it came to pass, before he had finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.

²⁴ And she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bore to Nahor."

⁵³ The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.

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

⁷ And he took up his parable, and said, "Balak the king of Moab has brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, "Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.

¹ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

² Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: Against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.

¹ To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned, and smote twelve thousand from Edom in the valley of salt. O God, You have cast us off, You have scattered us, You have been displeased; O turn Yourself to us again. ² You have made the earth to tremble; You have broken it: Heal its breaches; for it shakes. ³ You have showed Your people hard things: You have made us to drink the wine of astonishment. ⁴ You have given a banner to those that fear You, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah. ⁵ That Your beloved may be delivered; save with Your right hand, and hear me. ⁶ God has spoken in His holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure the valley of Succoth. ⁷ Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the strength of My head; Judah is My lawgiver; ⁸ Moab is My washpot; I will cast out My shoe over Edom: Philistia, you triumph because of Me. ⁹ Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom? ¹⁰ Will not You, O God, which had cast us off? And You, O God, which did not go out with our armies? ¹¹ Give us help from trouble: For vain is the help of man. ¹² Through God we shall do valiantly: For it is He that shall tread down our enemies.

⁴⁷ And I asked her, and said, 'Whose daughter are you?' And she said, 'The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore to him': And I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands.

⁵¹ Behold, Rebekah is before you, take her, and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as the LORD has spoken."

⁶⁷ And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: And Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.

²⁰ And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

² Arise, go to Padanaram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father; and take a wife from there of the daughers of Laban your mother's brother.

⁵ And Isaac sent away Jacob: And he went to Padanaram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

¹⁰ And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;

³ And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelled ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.

⁶ But to the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he still lived, eastward, to the east country.

²⁵ The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: But He will establish the border of the widow.
