Psalms 114 -118

114
1 When Israel went out of Egypt,
the house of Jacob
from a people of strange language;

2 Judah was his sanctuary,
and Israel his dominion.

3 The sea saw it,
and fled:
Jordan was driven back.

4 The mountains skipped like rams,
and the little hills like lambs.

5 What ailed thee,
O thou sea,
that thou fleddest?
thou Jordan,
that thou wast driven back?

6 Ye mountains,
that ye skipped like rams;
and ye little hills, like lambs?

7 Tremble,
thou earth,
at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob;

8 Which turned the rock
into a standing water,
the flint into a fountain of waters.

115
1 Not unto us,
O Lord,
not unto us,
but unto thy name
give glory,
for thy mercy,
and for thy truth's sake.

2 Wherefore
should the heathen say,
Where is now their God?

3 But our God
is in the heavens:
he hath done
whatsoever
he hath pleased.

4 Their idols
are silve
r and gold,
the work
of men's hands.

5 They have mouths,
but they speak not:
eyes have they,
but they see not:

6 They have ears,
but they hear not:
noses have they,
but they smell not:

7 They have hands,
but they handle not:
feet have they,
but they walk not:
neither speak they
through their throat.

8 They that make them
are like unto them;
so is every one
that trusteth in them.

9 O Israel,
trust thou in the Lord:
he is their help
and their shield.

10 O house of Aaron,
trust in the Lord:
he is their help
and their shield.

11 Ye that fear the Lord,
trust in the Lord:
he is their help
and their shield.

12 The Lord hath been mindful of us:
he will bless us;
he will bless the house of Israel;
he will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He will bless them
that fear the Lord,
both small
and great.

14 The Lord shall increase you
more and more,
you
and your children.

15 Ye are blessed of the Lord
which made heaven and earth.

16 The heaven,
even the heavens,
are the Lord's:
but the earth
hath he given
to the children of men.

17 The dead praise not the Lord,
neither any that go down into silence.

18 But we will bless the Lord
from this time forth
and for evermore.
Praise the Lord.


116
1 I love the Lord,
because he hath heard my voice
and my supplications.

2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me,
therefore will I call upon him
as long as I live.

3 The sorrows of death compassed me,
and the pains of hell gat hold upon me:
I found trouble and sorrow.

4 Then called I
upon the name of the Lord;
O Lord,
I beseech thee,
deliver my soul.

5 Gracious is the Lord,
and righteous;
yea,
our God is merciful.

6 The Lord preserveth the simple:
I was brought low,
and he helped me.

7 Return unto thy rest,
O my soul;
for the Lord
hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8 For thou hast delivered my soul
from death,
mine eyes from tears,
and my feet from falling.

9 I will walk before the Lord
in the land of the living.

10 I believed,
therefore have I spoken:
I was greatly afflicted:

11 I said in my haste,
All men are liars.

12 What
shall I render unto the Lord
for all his benefits toward me?

13 I will take the cup of salvation,
and call upon the name of the Lord.

14 I will pay my vows
unto the Lord
now
in the presence of all his people.

15 Precious
in the sight of the Lord
is the death of his saints.

16 O Lord,
truly I am thy servant;
I am thy servant,
and the son of thine handmaid:
thou hast loosed my bonds.

17 I will offer to thee
the sacrifice of thanksgiving,
and will call upon
the name of the Lord.

18 I will pay my vows
unto the Lord
now
in the presence of all his people.

19 In the courts
of the Lord's house,
in the midst of thee,
O Jerusalem.
Praise ye the Lord.


117
1 O praise the Lord,
all ye nations:
praise him, all ye people.

2 For his merciful kindness
is great toward us:
and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever.
Praise ye the Lord.

118
1 O give thanks
unto the Lord;
for he is good:
because his mercy
endureth for ever.

2 Let Israel now say,
that his mercy
endureth for ever.

3 Let the house of Aaron now say,
that his mercy endureth for ever.

4 Let them now
that fear the Lord
say,
that his mercy endureth
for ever.

5 I called upon the Lord
in distress:
the Lord answered me,
and set me in a large place.

6 The Lord is on my side;
I will not fear:
what can man do unto me?

7 The Lord taketh my part
with them that help me:
therefore shall I see my desire
upon them that hate me.

8 It is better to trust in the Lord
than to put confidence in man.

9 It is better to trust in the Lord
than to put confidence in princes.

10 All nations compassed me about:
but in the name of the Lord will I destroy them.

11 They compassed me about;
yea,
they compassed me about:
but in the name of the Lord
I will destroy them.

12 They compassed me about like bees:
they are quenched as the fire of thorns:
for in the name of the Lord
I will destroy them.

13 Thou hast thrust sore at me
that I might fall:
but the Lord helped me.

14 The Lord
is my strength
and song,
and is become my salvation.

15 The voice
of rejoicing
and salvation
is in the tabernacles
of the righteous:
the right hand of the Lord
doeth valiantly.

16 The right hand of the Lord
is exalted:
the right hand of the Lord
doeth valiantly.

17 I shall not die,
but live,
and declare
the works of the Lord.

18 The Lord hath chastened me sore:
but he hath not given me
over unto death.

19 Open to me
the gates of righteousness:
I will go into them,
and I will praise the Lord:

20 This gate of the Lord,
into which the righteous shall enter.

21 I will praise thee:
for thou hast heard me,
and art become my salvation.

22 The stone
which the builders refused
is become
the head stone of the corner.

23 This is the Lord's doing;
it is marvellous in our eyes.

24 This is the day
which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.

25 Save now,
I beseech thee,
O Lord:
O Lord,
I beseech thee,
send now prosperity.

26 Blessed be he
that cometh in the name of the Lord:
we have blessed you
out of the house of the Lord.

27 God is the Lord,
which hath shewed us light:
bind the sacrifice with cords,
even unto the horns of the altar.

28 Thou art my God,
and I will praise thee:
thou art my God,
I will exalt thee.

29 O give thanks
unto the Lord;
for he is good:
for his mercy endureth
for ever.



Zechariah 14:1-11

1 Behold,
the day of the Lord cometh,
and thy spoil shall be divided
in the midst of thee.

2 For I will gather
all nations
against Jerusalem to battle;
and the city shall be taken,
and the houses rifled,
and the women ravished;
and half of the city
shall go forth into captivity,
and the residue
of the people
shall not be cut off
from the city.

3 Then
shall the Lord go forth,
and fight against those nations,
as when he fought
in the day of battle.

4 And his feet shall stand
in that day
upon the mount of Olives,
which is before Jerusalem
on the east,
and the mount of Olives
shall cleave in the midst
thereof
toward the east
and toward the west,
and there shall be a very great valley;
and half of the mountain
shall remove toward the north,
and half of it toward the south.

5 And ye shall flee
to the valley
of the mountains;
for the valley
of the mountains
shall reach unto Azal:
yea,
ye shall flee,
like as ye fled
from before the earthquake
in the days of Uzziah
king of Judah:

6 And it shall come to pass
in that day,
that the light shall not be clear,
nor dark:

7 But it shall be one day
which shall be known to the Lord,
not day,
nor night:
but it shall come to pass,
that at evening time
it shall be light.

8 And it shall be in that day,
that living waters
shall go out from Jerusalem;
half of them toward the former sea,
and half of them toward the hinder sea:
in summer
and in winter shall it be.

9 And the Lord
shall be king over all the earth:
in that day shall there be one Lord,
and his name one.

10 All the land shall be turned
as a plain
from Geba to Rimmon
south of Jerusalem:
and it shall be lifted up,
and inhabited in her place,
from Benjamin's gate
unto the place
of the first gate,
unto the corner gate,
and from the tower
of Hananeel
unto the king's winepresses.

11 And men shall dwell in it,
and there shall be no more utter destruction;
but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.



Romans 15:7-13

7 Wherefore receive ye one another,
as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

8 Now I say
that Jesus Christ was a minister
of the circumcision
for the truth of God,
to confirm the promises
made unto the fathers:

9 And that the Gentiles
might glorify God
for his mercy;
as it is written,
For this cause
I will confess to thee
among the Gentiles,
and sing unto thy name.

10 And again he saith,
Rejoice,
ye Gentiles,
with his people.

11 And again,
Praise the Lord,
all ye Gentiles;
and laud him,
all ye people.

12 And again,
Esaias saith,
There shall be a root of Jesse,
and he that shall rise to reign
over the Gentiles;
in him shall the Gentiles trust.

13 Now the God of hope
fill you with all joy
and peace
in believing,
that ye may abound in hope,
through the power of the Holy Ghost.



Luke 19:28-40

28 And when he had thus spoken,
he went before,
ascending up to Jerusalem.

29 And it came to pass,
when he was come nigh
to Bethphage
and Bethany, a
t the mount
called the mount of Olives,
he sent two of his disciples,

30 Saying,
Go ye into the village
over against you;
in the which at your entering
ye shall find a colt tied,
whereon yet never man sat:
loose him,
and bring him hither.

31 And if any man ask you,
Why do ye loose him?
thus shall ye say unto him,
Because the Lord hath need of him.

32 And they
that were sent
went their way,
and found
even as he had said unto them.

33 And as they were loosing the colt,
the owners thereof
said unto them,
Why loose ye the colt?

34 And they said,
The Lord hath need of him.

35 And they brought him to Jesus:
and they cast their garments
upon the colt,
and they set Jesus thereon.

36 And as he went,
they spread their clothes in the way.

37 And when he was come nigh,
even now at the descent of the mount of Olives,
the whole multitude
of the disciples
began to rejoice
and praise God
with a loud voice
for all the mighty works
that they had seen;

38 Saying,
Blessed be the King
that cometh in the name of the Lord:
peace in heaven,
and glory in the highest.

39 And some of the Pharisees
from among the multitude
said unto him,
Master,
rebuke thy disciples.

40 And he answered
and said unto them,
I tell you that,
if these should hold their peace,
the stones would immediately cry out.

Psalm 119

119
1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way,
who walk in the law of the Lord.

2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies,
and that seek him with the whole heart.

3 They also do no iniquity:
they walk in his ways.

4 Thou hast commanded us
to keep thy precepts diligently.

5 O that my ways were directed
to keep thy statutes!

6 Then shall I not be ashamed,
when I have respect unto all thy commandments.

7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart,
when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.

8 I will keep thy statutes:
O forsake me not utterly.

9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way?
by taking heed thereto according to thy word.

10 With my whole heart have I sought thee:
O let me not wander from thy commandments.

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart,
that I might not sin against thee.

12 Blessed art thou,
O Lord:
teach me thy statutes.

13 With my lips
have I declared
all the judgments
of thy mouth.

14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies,
as much as in all riches.

15 I will meditate in thy precepts,
and have respect unto thy ways.

16 I will delight myself in thy statutes:
I will not forget thy word.

17 Deal bountifully with thy servant,
that I may live, and keep thy word.

18 Open thou mine eyes,
that I may behold wondrous things
out of thy law.

19 I am a stranger in the earth:
hide not thy commandments from me.

20 My soul breaketh for the longing
that it hath unto thy judgments at all times.

21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed,
which do err from thy commandments.

22 Remove from me
reproach
and contempt;
for I have kept thy testimonies.

23 Princes also did sit
and speak against me:
but thy servant did meditate
in thy statutes.

24 Thy testimonies also are my delight
and my counselors.

25 My soul cleaveth unto the dust:
quicken thou me according to thy word.

26 I have declared my ways,
and thou heardest me:
teach me thy statutes.

27 Make me to understand the way of thy precepts:
so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

28 My soul melteth for heaviness:
strengthen thou me according unto thy word.

29 Remove from me the way of lying:
and grant me thy law graciously.

30 I have chosen the way of truth:
thy judgments have I laid before me.

31 I have stuck unto thy testimonies:
O Lord, put me not to shame.

32 I will run the way of thy commandments,
when thou shalt enlarge my heart.

33 Teach me,
O Lord,
the way of thy statutes;
and I shall keep it unto the end.

34 Give me understanding,
and I shall keep thy law;
yea,
I shall observe it with my whole heart.

35 Make me to go
in the path of thy commandments;
for therein do I delight.

36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies,
and not to covetousness.

37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity;
and quicken thou me in thy way.

38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant,
who is devoted to thy fear.

39 Turn away my reproach which I fear:
for thy judgments are good.

40 Behold,
I have longed after thy precepts:
quicken me in thy righteousness.

41 Let thy mercies come also unto me,
O Lord,
even thy salvation,
according to thy word.

42 So shall I have wherewith to answer him
that reproacheth me:
for I trust in thy word.

43 And take not the word of truth utterly
out of my mouth;
for I have hoped in thy judgments.

44 So shall I keep thy law continually
for ever and ever.

45 And I will walk at liberty:
for I seek thy precepts.

46 I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings,
and will not be ashamed.

47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments,
which I have loved.

48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments,
which I have loved;
and I will meditate in thy statutes.

49 Remember the word unto thy servant,
upon which thou hast caused me to hope.

50 This is my comfort in my affliction:
for thy word hath quickened me.

51 The proud have had me greatly in derision:
yet have I not declined from thy law.

52 I remembered thy judgments of old,
O Lord; and have comforted myself.

53 Horror hath taken hold upon me
because of the wicked that forsake thy law.

54 Thy statutes have been my songs
in the house of my pilgrimage.

55 I have remembered thy name,
O Lord,
in the night,
and have kept thy law.

56 This I had,
because I kept thy precepts.

57 Thou art my portion,
O Lord:
I have said
that I would keep thy words.

58 I intreated thy favour
with my whole heart:
be merciful unto me
according to thy word.

59 I thought on my ways,
and turned my feet
unto thy testimonies.

60 I made haste,
and delayed not
to keep thy commandments.

61 The bands of the wicked
have robbed me:
but I have not forgotten thy law.

62 At midnigh
t I will rise
to give thanks unto thee
because of thy righteous judgments.

63 I am a companion of all them
that fear thee,
and of them that keep thy precepts.

64 The earth,
O Lord,
is full of thy mercy:
teach me thy statutes.

65 Thou hast dealt well with thy servant,
O Lord, according unto thy word.

66 Teach me
good judgment
and knowledge:
for I have believed thy commandments.

67 Before I was afflicted
I went astray:
but now have I kept thy word.

68 Thou art good,
and doest good;
teach me thy statutes.

69 The proud
have forged a lie against me:
but I will keep thy precepts
with my whole heart.

70 Their heart is as fat as grease;
but I delight in thy law.

71 It is good for me
that I have been afflicted;
that I might learn thy statutes.

72 The law of thy mouth
is better unto me
than thousands of gold and silver.

73 Thy hands
have made me
and fashioned me:
give me understanding,
that I may learn thy commandments.

74 They that fear thee
will be glad
when they see me;
because I have hoped in thy word.

75 I know,
O Lord,
that thy judgments are right,
and that thou in faithfulness
hast afflicted me.

76 Let,
I pray thee,
thy merciful kindness
be for my comfort,
according to thy word
unto thy servant.

77 Let thy tender mercies
come unto me,
that I may live:
for thy law is my delight.

78 Let the proud be ashamed;
for they dealt perversely with me
without a cause:
but I will meditate in thy precepts.

79 Let those that fear thee
turn unto me,
and those
that have known thy testimonies.

80 Let my heart be sound
in thy statutes;
that I be not ashamed.

81 My soul fainteth for thy salvation:
but I hope in thy word.

82 Mine eyes fail for thy word,
saying,
When wilt thou comfort me?

83 For I am become like a bottle
in the smoke;
yet do I not forget thy statutes.

84 How many are the days of thy servant?
when wilt thou execute judgment
on them that persecute me?

85 The proud have digged pits for me,
which are not after thy law.

86 All thy commandments are faithful:
they persecute me wrongfully;
help thou me.

87 They had almost consumed me
upon earth;
but I forsook not thy precepts.

88 Quicken me
after thy lovingkindness;
so shall I keep the testimony
of thy mouth.

89 For ever,
O Lord,
thy word is settled in heaven.

90 Thy faithfulness
is unto all generations:
thou hast established the earth,
and it abideth.

91 They continue this day
according to thine ordinances:
for all are thy servants.

92 Unless thy law had been my delights,
I should then have perished
in mine affliction.

93 I will never forget thy precepts:
for with them thou hast quickened me.

94 I am thine,
save me:
for I have sought thy precepts.

95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me:
but I will consider thy testimonies.

96 I have seen an end of all perfection:
but thy commandment is exceeding broad.

97 O how love I thy law!
it is my meditation all the day.

98 Thou through thy commandments
hast made me wiser than mine enemies:
for they are ever with me.

99 I have more understanding
than all my teachers:
for thy testimonies are my meditation.

100 I understand more than the ancients,
because I keep thy precepts.

101 I have refrained my feet
from every evil way,
that I might keep thy word.

102 I have not departed
from thy judgments:
for thou hast taught me.

103 How sweet are thy words
unto my taste! yea,
sweeter than honey
to my mouth!

104 Through thy precepts
I get understanding:
therefore I hate every false way.

105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
and a light unto my path.

106 I have sworn,
and I will perform it,
that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

107 I am afflicted very much:
quicken me,
O Lord,
according unto thy word.

108 Accept,
I beseech thee,
the freewill offerings of my mouth,
O Lord,
and teach me thy judgments.

109 My soul is continually in my hand:
yet do I not forget thy law.

110 The wicked have laid a snare for me:
yet I erred not from thy precepts.

111 Thy testimonies
have I taken
as an heritage for ever:
for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

112 I have inclined mine heart
to perform thy statutes
alway,
even unto the end.

113 I hate vain thoughts:
but thy law do I love.

114 Thou art my hiding place
and my shield:
I hope in thy word.

115 Depart from me,
ye evildoers:
for I will keep the commandments
of my God.

116 Uphold me
according unto thy word,
that I may live:
and let me not be ashamed
of my hope.

117 Hold thou me up,
and I shall be safe:
and I will have respect
unto thy statutes
continually.

118 Thou hast trodden down
all them
that err from thy statutes:
for their deceit
is falsehood.

119 Thou puttest away
all the wicked of the earth
like dross:
therefore I love thy testimonies.

120 My flesh trembleth
for fear of thee;
and I am afraid
of thy judgments.

121 I have done judgment
and justice:
leave me not to mine oppressors.

122 Be surety
for thy servant
for good:
let not the proud
oppress me.

123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation,
and for the word of thy righteousness.

124 Deal with thy servant
according unto thy mercy,
and teach me thy statutes.

125 I am thy servant;
give me understanding,
that I may know thy testimonies.

126 It is time for thee,
Lord,
to work:
for they have made void thy law.

127 Therefore I love thy commandments
above gold;
yea,
above fine gold.

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

129 Thy testimonies are wonderful:
therefore doth my soul keep them.

130 The entrance of thy words
giveth light;
it giveth understanding
unto the simple.

131 I opened my mouth,
and panted:
for I longed for thy commandments.

132 Look thou upon me,
and be merciful unto me,
as thou usest to do
unto those that love thy name.

133 Order my steps in thy word:
and let not any iniquity
have dominion over me.

134 Deliver me
from the oppression of man:
so will I keep thy precepts.

135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant;
and teach me thy statutes.

136 Rivers of waters
run down mine eyes,
because they keep not thy law.

137 Righteous art thou,
O Lord,
and upright are thy judgments.

138 Thy testimonies
that thou hast commanded
are righteous
and very faithful.

139 My zeal hath consumed me,
because mine enemies
have forgotten thy words.

140 Thy word is very pure:
therefore thy servant loveth it.

141 I am small and despised:
yet do not I forget thy precepts.

142 Thy righteousness
is an everlasting righteousness,
and thy law is the truth.

143 Trouble and anguish
have taken hold on me:
yet thy commandments
are my delights.

144 The righteousness
of thy testimonies
is everlasting:
give me understanding,
and I shall live.

145 I cried with my whole heart;
hear me,
O Lord:
I will keep thy statutes.

146 I cried unto thee;
save me,
and I shall keep thy testimonies.

147 I prevented the dawning of the morning,
and cried:
I hoped in thy word.

148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches,
that I might meditate in thy word.

149 Hear my voice
according unto thy lovingkindness:
O Lord, quicken me
according to thy judgment.

150 They draw nigh
that follow after mischief:
they are far from thy law.

151 Thou art near,
O Lord;
and all thy commandments are truth.

152 Concerning thy testimonies,
I have known of old
that thou hast founded them
for ever.

153 Consider mine affliction,
and deliver me:
for I do not forget thy law.

154 Plead my cause,
and deliver me:
quicken me
according to thy word.

155 Salvation
is far from the wicked:
for they seek not thy statutes.

156 Great are thy tender mercies,
O Lord:
quicken me
according to thy judgments.

157 Many are my persecutors
and mine enemies;
yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

158 I beheld the transgressors,
and was grieved;
because they kept not thy word.

159 Consider how I love thy precepts:
quicken me,
O Lord,
according to thy lovingkindness.

160 Thy word is true from the beginning:
and every one of thy righteous judgments
endureth for ever.

161 Princes have persecuted me
without a cause:
but my heart standeth in awe
of thy word.

162 I rejoice at thy word,
as one that findeth great spoil.

163 I hate and abhor lying:
but thy law do I love.

164 Seven times a day
do I praise thee
because of thy righteous judgments.

165 Great peace have they
which love thy law:
and nothing shall offend them.

166 Lord,
I have hoped for thy salvation,
and done thy commandments.

167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies;
and I love them exceedingly.

168 I have kept thy precepts
and thy testimonies:
for all my ways are before thee.

169 Let my cry come near before thee,
O Lord:
give me understanding
according to thy word.

170 Let my supplication
come before thee:
deliver me
according to thy word.

171 My lips shall utter praise,
when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

172 My tongue shall speak of thy word:
for all thy commandments are righteousness.

173 Let thine hand help me;
for I have chosen thy precepts.

174 I have longed for thy salvation,
O Lord;
and thy law is my delight.

175 Let my soul live,
and it shall praise thee;
and let thy judgments help me.

176 I have gone astray
like a lost sheep;
seek thy servant;
for I do not forget thy commandments.



Zechariah 14:12-21

12 And this shall be the plague
wherewith the Lord will smite all the people
that have fought against Jerusalem;
Their flesh shall consume away
while they stand upon their feet,
and their eyes shall consume away
in their holes,
and their tongue shall consume away
in their mouth.

13 And it shall come to pass
in that day,
that a great tumult
from the Lord
shall be among them;
and they shall lay hold
every one
on the hand of his neighbour,
and his hand shall rise up
against the hand of his neighbour.

14 And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem;
and the wealth of all the heathen
round about
shall be gathered together,
gold,
and silver,
and apparel,
in great abundance.

15 And so shall be the plague
of the horse,
of the mule,
of the camel,
and of the ass,
and of all the beasts
that shall be in these tents,
as this plague.

16 And it shall come to pass,
that every one that is left
of all the nations
which came against Jerusalem
shall even go up
from year to year
to worship the King,
the Lord of hosts,
and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

17 And it shall be,
that whoso will not come up
of all the families
of the earth
unto Jerusalem
to worship the King,
the Lord of hosts,
even upon them shall be no rain.

18 And if the family of Egypt
go not up,
and come not,
that have no rain;
there shall be the plague,
wherewith the Lord will smite
the heathen
that come not up
to keep the feast of tabernacles.

19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt,
and the punishment of all nations
that come not up
to keep the feast of tabernacles.

20 In that day
shall there be upon the bells
of the horses,
Holiness Unto The Lord;
and the pots in the Lord's house
shall be like the bowls before the altar.

21 Yea,
every pot in Jerusalem
and in Judah
hall be holiness unto the Lord of hosts:
and all they that sacrifice
shall come
and take of them,
and seethe therein:
and in that day
there shall be no more the Canaanite
in the house
of the Lord of hosts.



Philippians 2:1-11

1 If there be
therefore
any consolation in Christ,
if any comfort of love,
if any fellowship of the Spirit,
if any bowels and mercies,

2 Fulfil ye my joy,
that ye be likeminded,
having the same love,
being of one accord, of one mind.

3 Let nothing be done
through strife or vainglory;
but in lowliness of mind
let each esteem other
better than themselves.

4 Look not every man on his own things,
but every man also on the things of others.

5 Let this mind be in you,
which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who,
being in the form of God,
thought it not robbery
to be equal with God:

7 But made himself
of no reputation,
and took upon him
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 unto death,
even the death of the cross.

9 Wherefore
God also hath highly exalted him,
and given him a name
which is above every name:

10 That at the name of Jesus
every knee should bow,
of things in heaven,
and things in earth,
and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue
should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.


Luke 19:41-48

41 And when he was come near,
he beheld the city,
and wept over it,

42 Saying,
If thou hadst known,
even thou,
at least in this thy day,
the things which belong unto thy peace!
but now they are hid from thine eyes.

43 For the days shall come upon thee,
that thine enemies
shall cast a trench about thee,
and compass thee round,
and keep thee in on every side,

44 And shall lay thee
even with the ground,
and thy children within thee;
and they shall not leave in thee
one stone upon another;
because thou knewest not
the time of thy visitation.

45 And he went into the temple,
and began to cast out
them that sold therein,
and them that bought;

46 Saying unto them,
It is written,
My house is the house of prayer:
but ye have made it a den of thieves.

47 And he taught daily in the temple.
But the chief priests
and the scribes
and the chief of the people
sought to destroy him,

48 And could not find
what they might do:
for all the people
were very attentive
to hear him.
