¹ And, having called together the twelve, He gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to heal diseases; ² and He sent them forth to preach the Kingdom of God, and to heal the sick; ³ and He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey—neither staff, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money; and not to have two coats. ⁴ "And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide, and thence depart. ⁵ And as many as do not receive you, going out from that city, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them." ⁶ And, going forth, they were passing through the several villages, proclaiming the good news, and healing everywhere.

¹ Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others; and sent them away, two and two, before His face, into every city and place, whither He Himself was about to come. ² And He said to them, "The harvest, indeed, is great, but the laborers few. Pray ye, therefore, the Lord of the harvest, that He urge forth laborers into His harvest. ³ Go your ways; behold, I am sending you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves. ⁴ Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals; and salute no one by the way. ⁵ And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, 'Peace be to this house.' ⁶ And, if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; but, if not, it will return to you. ⁷ And in the same house abide, eating and drinking the things supplied by them; for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house. ⁸ And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you; ⁹ and heal the sick therein, and say to them, 'The Kingdom of God has come near to you.' ¹⁰ But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, going forth into the streets thereof, say, ¹¹ 'Even the dust from your city, that cleaves to our feet, we wipe off against you; nevertheless, know this, that the Kingdom of God has come nigh.'

¹⁷ And the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Thy name!" ¹⁸ And He said to them, "I was beholding Satan fallen as lightning out of the heavens. ¹⁹ Behold, I have given you the authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall in any wise harm you. ²⁰ Notwithstanding, rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice, because your names have been written in Heaven."

¹⁵ But some of them said, "By Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons, He is casting out the demons."

¹⁷ But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them, "Every kingdom, divided against itself, is made desolate; and a house divided against a house falls. ¹⁸ And, if Satan also were divided against himself, how would his kingdom stand? because ye say that by Beelzebub I am casting out the demons! ¹⁹ But, if I, by Beelzebub, cast out the demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore, they shall be your judges. ²⁰ But, if I, by the finger of God, cast out the demons, then the Kingdom of God came upon you unexpectedly. ²¹ "When the strong man, fully armed, is guarding his own court, his goods are in peace; ²² but, when a stronger than he, coming upon him, overcomes him, he takes away his whole armor upon which he had relied, and distributes his spoils. ²³ He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who is not gathering with Me is scattering.

²⁷ And it came to pass, as He was saying these things, that a certain woman, out of the multitude, lifting up her voice, said to Him, "Happy the womb that carried Thee, and the breasts which Thou didst suck!" ²⁸ But He said, "Yea, rather, happy are those who hear the word of God, and keep it!"

¹⁵ And the Lord answered him, and said, "Hypocrites! does not each one of you, on the sabbath, loose his ox or his ass from the stall; and, leading it away, water it? ¹⁶ And was it not right that this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan bound, lo, eighteen years, should have been loosed from this bond on the day of the sabbath?" ¹⁷ And, when He said these things, all those opposing Him were being put to shame, and all the multitude were rejoicing because of all the glorious things which were being done by Him.

And, taking hold of him, He healed him, and let him go; ⁵ and He said to them, "Who of you shall have an ass or an ox fall into a well, and he will not straight-way draw him up on a sabbath day?"

¹⁴ And, when He saw them, He said to them, "Going your way, show yourselves to the priests." And it came to pass that, as they went, they were cleansed.

⁴⁰ And, answering, He said, "I tell you that, if these shall be silent, the stones will cry out!" ⁴¹ And, when He came near, seeing the city, He wept over it, ⁴² saying, "If you knew, in this your day—even you—the things pertaining to peace! but just now were they hid from your eyes! ⁴³ Because the days will come upon you, when your enemies will cast a rampart about you, and compass you round, and hem you in on all sides; ⁴⁴ and they will dash you to the ground, and your children within you; and shall not leave in you a stone upon a stone; because you knew not the season of your visitation."

¹⁹ And the scribes and the high priests sought to lay hands on Him in that very hour; and they feared the people; for they knew that He spake the parable against them. ²⁰ And, watching Him, they sent forth spies, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of His speech, so as to deliver Him up to the rule and the authority of the governor.

⁴⁰ Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard it from John, and followed Him.

⁴² He led him to Jesus.

⁴ And He saith to her, "Woman, what is it to Me and to you? My hour has not yet come."

³¹ In the meantime the disciples were entreating Him, saying, "Rabbi, eat." ³² But He said to them, "I have food to eat that ye know not of." ³³ The disciples, therefore, said to one another, "Has any one brought Him anything to eat?" ³⁴ Jesus saith to them, "My food is to do the will of Him Who sent Me, and to finish His work.

³ In these were lying a multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, withered, [waiting for the moving of the waters:

⁸ Jesus saith to him, "Rise, take up your bed, and walk." ⁹ And straightway the man became well, and took up his bed, and was walking. And it was the sabbath on that day.

⁵ Jesus, therefore, lifting up His eyes, and seeing that a great multitude is coming to Him, saith to Philip, "Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?" ⁶ And this He said, proving him; for He Himself knew what He was about to do. ⁷ Philip answered Him, "Two hundred denaries worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that each one may take a little." ⁸ One of His disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, says to Him,

¹⁵ Jesus, therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take Him by force, to make Him King, withdrew again into the mountain, Himself alone.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were that believed not, and who it was that would betray Him.

⁷¹ But He was speaking of Judas, son of Simon Iscariot; for he was about to betray Him, being one of the twelve.

³ His brethren, therefore, said to Him, "Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that Thy disciples also may behold Thy works that Thou doest;

³ His brethren, therefore, said to Him, "Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that Thy disciples also may behold Thy works that Thou doest; ⁴ for no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to he known openly. If Thou doest these things, manifest Thyself to the world."

⁴ for no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to he known openly. If Thou doest these things, manifest Thyself to the world." ⁵ For even His brethren did not believe on Him.

⁵ For even His brethren did not believe on Him. ⁶ Jesus, therefore, saith to them, "My time is not yet present; but your time is always ready. ⁷ The world cannot hate you; but Me it hates, because I testify concerning it, that its works are evil. ⁸ Go ye up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because My time has not yet been fulfilled." ⁹ And, having said these things to them, He abode in Galilee. ¹⁰ But, when His brethren went up to the feast, then He also went up, not openly, but as it were in secret.

¹⁷ If any one wills to do His will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from Myself.

²⁰ The multitude answered, "Thou hast a demon: who is seeking to kill you!"

⁴¹ others said, "This is the Christ;" but some said, "What? doth the Christ come out of Nazareth?"

⁵² They answered, and said to him, "Are you also of Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee arises no prophet."

⁴⁸ The Jews answered and said to Him, "Say we not well that Thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?"

⁵² The Jews said to Him, "Now we know that Thou hast a demon! Abraham and the prophets died; and Thou sayest, 'If any one keeps My word, he shall never taste of death!'

⁴ We must work the works of Him Who sent Me, while it is day. Night is coming, when no one can work.

⁷ and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is interpreted, Sent). He went, therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

¹⁶ Some of the Pharisees, therefore, said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.

²⁰ And many of them said, "He hath a demon, and is mad; why do ye hear Him?"

²² Then occurred the feast of dedication in Jerusalem; and it was winter;

³⁹ They were seeking, therefore, again to seize Him; and He went forth out of their hands. ⁴⁰ And He went away again beyond the Jordan unto the place where John was at first immersing; and there He abode. ⁴¹ And many came to Him, and said, "John, indeed, did no sign, but all things, whatsoever John spake concerning this Man, were true."

¹⁶ Thomas, who is called Dydimus, said, therefore, to His fellow-disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with Him."

⁵³ From that day, therefore, they took counsel, that they might put Him to death.

⁵³ From that day, therefore, they took counsel, that they might put Him to death. ⁵⁴ Jesus, therefore, was no longer openly walking about among the Jews; but He went away thence into the country near to the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there He abode with the disciples.

⁴ But Judas Iscariot, one of His disciples, who was about to betray Him, says, ⁵ "Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denaries, and given to the poor?" ⁶ And he said this, not because he cared about the poor; but because he was a thief; and, having the money-box, he was wont to carry what was put therein.

²¹ These, therefore, came to Philip—who was from Bethsaida of Galilee—and were asking Him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus." ²² Philip comes and tells Andrew; Andrew and Philip come and tell Jesus.

³¹ Now is the judgment of this world: now will the Prince of this world be cast out;

² And, supper being in progress, the Devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him,

²⁶ Jesus, therefore, answereth, "He it is for whom I shall dip the morsel, and give it to him." Having, therefore, dipped the morsel, He taketh and giveth it to Judas, son of Simon Iscariot. ²⁷ And after the morsel, then Satan entered into him. Jesus, therefore, saith to him, "What you do, do quickly." ²⁸ And no one of those reclining knew for what purpose He spake this to him; ²⁹ for some thought, because Judas had the money-bag, that Jesus said to him, "Buy what we need for the feast," or that he should give something to the poor. ³⁰ He, therefore, having received the morsel, went out straightway; and it was night.

⁸ Philip says to Him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it suffices us." ⁹ Jesus saith to him, "So long a time am I with you, and you do not know Me, Philip! He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how say you, 'Show us the Father?'

²² Judas, not Iscariot, says to Him, "Lord, what has happened, that Thou art about to manifest Thyself to us, and not to the world?"

¹⁶ Ye did not choose Me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide; that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it you.

²¹ that they may all be one, even as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that Thou didst send Me.

¹⁷ Jesus saith to her, "Touch Me not; for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren, and say to them, "I ascend to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God."

²⁴ But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. ²⁵ The other disciples, therefore, said to him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and press my hand into His side, I will not believe." ²⁶ And, after eight days, again His disciples were within, and Thomas with them. Jesus cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace be to you!" ²⁷ Then He saith to Thomas, "Reach hither your finger, and see My hands; and reach hither your hand, and press it into My side; and be not faithless, but believing." ²⁸ Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!" ²⁹ Jesus saith to him, "Because you have seen Me, you believe: happy are those who did not see, and yet believed."

² There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathaniel of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples.

²⁰ Peter, turning about, sees the disciple whom Jesus loved following; who also at the Supper leaned back on Jesus' breast, and said, "Lord, who is he that betrays Thee?" ²¹ Peter therefore, seeing him, says to Jesus, "Lord, and what will this man do?" ²² Jesus saith to him, "If I wish him to remain till I come, what is it to you? follow Me." ²³ This saying, therefore, went forth among the brethren, that that disciple should not die; yet Jesus did not say to him, that he should not die, but, "If I wish him to remain till I come, what is it to you?" ²⁴ This is the disciple who testifies concerning these things, and wrote these things; and we know that his testimony is true. ²⁵ And there are also many other things which Jesus did; which, indeed, were they written one by one, I suppose that not even the world itself would contain the books that would be written.

⁸ but ye shall receive power, the Holy Spirit having come upon you, and ye shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and Samaria, and to the utmost limit of the earth."

¹³ And, when they entered, they went up into the upper-room, where they were abiding; both Peter and John, and James, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.

¹⁶ "Brethren, it was necessary that the Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spake beforehand, through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who arrested Jesus; ¹⁷ because he was numbered among us, and obtained the portion of this ministry. ¹⁸ This man, therefore, acquired a field with the reward of unrighteousness; and, falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out; ¹⁹ and it became known to all those dwelling at Jerusalem; so that place was called, in their own language, Akeldama, that is, 'Field of blood.' ²⁰ For it has been written in a book of Psalms, 'Let his habitation become desolate, and let no one dwell in it.' And, 'His charge, let another take.' ²¹ "It is needful, therefore, that one of these men—who accompanied us all the time that the Lord went in and out among us, ²² beginning from the immersion of John, until the day on which He was taken up from us—should become a witness, with us, of His resurrection." ²³ And they proposed two; Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. ²⁴ And, praying, they said, "Thou, Lord, Who knowest the hearts of all men, show which of these two Thou didst choose, ²⁵ to take the place of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place."

¹⁵ so that they even carried forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, in order that, as Peter might pass by, his shadow at least might overshadow some one of them.

¹ Now about that time Herod the king put forth his bands to harm some of the assembly.

⁵ But, when a hostile movement was made, both of the gentiles and Jews with their rulers, to maltreat and stone them; ⁶ they, becoming aware it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and to the region round about;

¹³ And, after they were silent, James answered, saying, "Brethren, hear me.

¹⁷ The same, following after Paul and us, kept crying, saying, "These men are servants of the Most High God; who, indeed, declare to you a way of salvation." ¹⁸ And this she was doing for many days. But Paul, having been troubled, and turning, said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out from her." And it came out that very hour!

¹⁰ But the brethren straightway sent away both Paul and Silas by night to Beraea; who, indeed, having arrived, went into the synagogue of the Jews.

¹⁴ And then straightway the brethren sent away Paul to journey as far as to the sea; but Silas and Timothy remained there still.

¹¹ And God kept performing special miracles through the hands of Paul; ¹² So that there were even carried from his body to the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out. ¹³ But some also of the wandering Jews, exorcists, attempted to name over those having evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, "I adjure you by the Jesus Whom Paul preaches." ¹⁴ Now there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish high priest, who did this. ¹⁵ And the evil spirit, answering, said to them, "Jesus I know, and Paul I understand; but who are ye?" ¹⁶ And the man in whom was the evil spirit, leaping upon them, and, overcoming them both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. ¹⁷ And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who were dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified.

¹⁸ And, on the following day, Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.

²⁴ And, as he was saying these things in defense, Festus says with a loud voice, "Paul, you are mad! your much learning is turning you mad!"

²⁹ because whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first born among many brethren.

⁷ What, then? What Israel is seeking for, this he did not obtain; but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened; ⁸ as it has been written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this day." ⁹ And David says, "Let their table be a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling-block, and a recompense to them: ¹⁰ let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back always."

²⁵ For I do not wish you, brethren, to be ignorant of this mystery (lest ye be wise in your own conceits), that a hardening, in part, has befallen Israel, until the fulness of the gentiles come in;

²⁰ And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet speedily. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

¹⁰ Now I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfected in the same mind, and in the same judgment. ¹¹ For it was signified to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. ¹² Now I mean this: that each one of you is saying, "I am of Paul;" and "I of Apollos;" and "I of Cephas:" and "I of Christ!"

¹² Now I mean this: that each one of you is saying, "I am of Paul;" and "I of Apollos;" and "I of Cephas:" and "I of Christ!" ¹³ Hath Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were ye immersed into the name of Paul?

²² whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come, all are yours;

⁵ Have we no right to lead about a sister as our wife, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

⁷ After that He appeared to James, then to all the apostles;

⁵⁸ Therefore, my beloved brethren, become steadfast, immovable, abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

¹⁴ But their minds were unimpressible; for until this day upon the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains unlifted; which in Christ is done away.

¹³ For whether we were beside ourselves, it was to God; or whether we are of sober mind, it is for you.

¹⁶ Wherefore, we henceforth know no one according to the flesh; even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now no longer do we know Him thus.

¹ Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),

¹⁵ But, when it pleased God, who set me apart from my mother's womb, and called me through His grace, ¹⁶ to reveal His Son in me, that I might proclaim the good news of Him among the gentiles; straightway I conferred not with flesh and blood, ¹⁷ neither went I up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and again returned to Damascus. ¹⁸ Then, after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas, and continued with him fifteen days. ¹⁹ But other of the apostles I saw not, except James, the brother of the Lord.

¹⁹ But other of the apostles I saw not, except James, the brother of the Lord. ²⁰ Now as to the things I am writing to you, behold, before God, I am not lying.

⁷ but, on the contrary, seeing that I had been entrusted with the Gospel of the uncircumcision, as Peter was with that of the circumcision; ⁸ (for He Who wrought for Peter with regard to an apostleship of the circumcision, wrought for me also with regard to the gentiles). ⁹ And, perceiving the grace which was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas right-hands of fellowship, that we should go to the gentiles, and they to the circumcision;

⁹ And, perceiving the grace which was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas right-hands of fellowship, that we should go to the gentiles, and they to the circumcision;

¹⁵ But, if ye bite and devour one another, beware, lest ye be consumed by one another.

⁹ And, in doing what is noble, let us not grow weary; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

³ earnestly endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. ⁴ There is one body, and one Spirit, even as also ye were called in one hope of your calling; ⁵ one Lord, one faith, one immersion, ⁶ one God and Father of all, Who is over all, and through all, and in all.

¹⁸ being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their hearts;

²⁶ Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath;

³⁰ And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, in Whom ye were sealed unto the day of redemption.

¹⁰ Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. ¹¹ Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil; ¹² because to us the struggle is not against blood and flesh, but against the principalities, against the authorities, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. ¹³ On this account, take up the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day; and, having fully accomplished all, to stand.

¹⁴ and that the greater part of the brethren, having become confident in the Lord by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

²⁸ and in nothing terrified by the adversaries; which, indeed, to them is a token of destruction, but of your salvation, and this from God; ²⁹ but to you it was granted as a favor in behalf of Christ, not only to believe on Him, but in His behalf to suffer also; ³⁰ having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear of in me.

¹⁵ having despoiled the principalities and the powers, He made an example of them, celebrating a triumph over them in it.

⁹ who, indeed, shall pay a penalty, eternal destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His might,

¹¹ For both He Who sanctifieth and those who are sanctified are all of One; for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren, ¹² saying, "I will declare Thy name to my brethren; in the midst of an assembly will I sing praise to Thee."

¹⁴ Since, therefore, the children have partaken of blood and flesh, He Himself also in like manner took part of the same; that, through death, He might bring to nought him who had the power of death, that is, the Devil;

¹⁰ Wherefore, I was displeased with that generation, and said, 'They do always err in their heart, and they did not know My ways;

¹⁷ And with whom was He displeased forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?

¹² For the word of God is living, and effectual, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to a dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

⁹ and, having been made perfect, He became the Author of eternal life to all who obey Him;

⁴ For as to those who were once enlightened, and tasted of the heavenly gift, and became partakers of the Holy Spirit, ⁵ and tasted the good word of God and the powers of the coming age, ⁶ and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they are crucifying to themselves the Son of God afresh, and putting Him to open shame. ⁷ For the land which drank in the rain that often comes upon it, and brings forth an herb fit for those for whose sake also it is cultivated, receives blessing from God; ⁸ but, if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected, and is near to a curse; whose end is to be burned.

²⁶ For, if we sin wilfully after we received the full knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, ²⁷ but a certain fearful expectation of judgment and fierceness of fire about to devour the opposers. ²⁸ Anyone, having set aside Moses' law, dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses; ²⁹ of how much worse punishment, think ye, shall he be accounted worthy, who trampled under foot the Son of God, and accounted the blood of the covenant with which He was sanctified an unholy thing, and treated with contempt the Spirit of grace? ³⁰ For we know Him Who said, To Me belongs vengeance; I will recompense," saith the Lord; and again, "The Lord will judge His people." ³¹ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God!

⁶ for whom the Lord loveth, He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He acknowledgeth."

¹ James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes who are in the Dispersion, greeting.

²⁵ But he who looks carefully into a perfect law—that of liberty—and remains by it, becoming not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work—this man shall be happy in his doing.

¹⁹ You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder!

¹⁶ For where there are jealousy and contention, there is confusion and every vile deed.

¹ Christ, therefore, having suffered in flesh, do ye also arm yourselves with the same mind; because he who suffered in flesh has ceased from sin;

¹ Simon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who obtained an equally precious faith with us, in the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

¹⁷ And the world is passing away, and the desire thereof; but be that does the will of God abides forever.

⁸ He that commits sin is of the Devil; because the Devil sins from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that He might destroy the works of the Devil.

²² and whatsoever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments, and do the things that are pleasing before Him. ²³ And this is the commandment, that we should believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

⁴ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He Who is in you, than he that is in the world.

¹⁶ If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those that sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he shall make request concerning this.

¹ Jude, a slave of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:

⁷ Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them, having in like manner with these given themselves over to fornication, and going away after other flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire.

¹³ wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own ignominies; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of the darkness has been reserved forever.

¹⁶ and they say to the mountains and to the rocks, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him Who is sitting on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb;

¹¹ And he says to me, "You must prophesy again concerning many peoples and nations and tongues and kings."

⁷ And there was war in the heaven; Michael and his angels went forth to war with the dragon. And the dragon made war, and his angels; ⁸ and they prevailed not, nor was their place found any more in the heaven. ⁹ And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole habitable earth; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.

¹ And I saw an angel coming down out of Heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain upon his hand. ² And he seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, ³ and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished; after these things he must be loosed for a little time.
