The Abundant Life:
Joh 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to
steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that
they might have it more abundantly.
Adam and Eve: Ge 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after
our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl
of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping
thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Ge 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.
Ge 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply,
and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Ge 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is
upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree
yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Ge 1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every
thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green
herb for meat: and it was so.
Ge 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.
And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Ge 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Ge 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested
on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Ge 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he
had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Ge 2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created,
in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
Ge 2:5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of
the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth,
and there was not a man to till the ground.
Ge 2:6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the
ground.
Ge 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Ge 2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man
whom he had formed.
Ge 2:9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant
to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden,
and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Ge 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was
parted, and became into four heads.
Ge 2:11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land
of Havilah, where there is gold;
Ge 2:12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
Ge 2:13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth
the whole land of Ethiopia.
Ge 2:14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward
the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
Ge 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress
it and to keep it.
Ge 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou
mayest freely eat:
Ge 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of
it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Ge 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will
make him an help meet for him.
Ge 2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every
fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever
Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
Ge 2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every
beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
Ge 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and
he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
Ge 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and
brought her unto the man.
Ge 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall
be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
Ge 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto
his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Ge 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Ge 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD
God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of
every tree of the garden?
Ge 3:2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees
of the garden:
Ge 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath
said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
Ge 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Ge 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be
opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Ge 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant
to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof,
and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Ge 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked;
and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
Ge 3:8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool
of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God
amongst the trees of the garden.
Ge 3:9 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
Ge 3:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I
was naked; and I hid myself.
Ge 3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree,
whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
Ge 3:12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of
the tree, and I did eat.
Ge 3:13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And
the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
Ge 3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou
art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt
thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
Ge 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and
her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Ge 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception;
in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband,
and he shall rule over thee.
Ge 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy
wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not
eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life;
Ge 3:18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat
the herb of the field;
Ge 3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the
ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou
return.
Ge 3:20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
Ge 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and
clothed them.
Ge 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good
and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life,
and eat, and live for ever:
Ge 3:23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the
ground from whence he was taken.
Ge 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden
Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree
of life.
The Ark
of the Covenant: Ex 25:10 And they shall make
an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a
cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
Ex 25:11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou
overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.
Ex 25:12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four
corners thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the
other side of it.
Ex 25:13 And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.
Ex 25:14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that
the ark may be borne with them.
Ex 25:15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from
it.
Ex 25:16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.
Ex 25:17 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall
be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
Ex 25:18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make
them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
Ex 25:19 And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end:
even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
Ex 25:20 And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the
mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the
mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
Ex 25:21 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou
shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
Ex 25:22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above
the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony,
of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
The Ascent
into Heaven: Ac 1:1 The former treatise have
I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
Ac 1:2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost
had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
Ac 1:3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible
proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the
kingdom of God:
Ac 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not
depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye
have heard of me.
Ac 1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy
Ghost not many days hence.
Ac 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt
thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Ac 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons,
which the Father hath put in his own power.
Ac 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and
ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria,
and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Ac 1:9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and
a cloud received him out of their sight.
Ac 1:10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two
men stood by them in white apparel;
Ac 1:11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this
same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner
as ye have seen him go into heaven.
Ac 1:12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is
from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
The
Axe Head that Floated: 2Ki 6:1 And the sons
of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee
is too strait for us.
2Ki 6:2 Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and
let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.
2Ki 6:3 And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered,
I will go.
2Ki 6:4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.
2Ki 6:5 But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried,
and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.
2Ki 6:6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And
he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.
2Ki 6:7 Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took
it.
The Baptism of Jesus: Lu
3:1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being
governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch
of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
Lu 3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John
the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
Lu 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance
for the remission of sins;
Lu 3:4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The
voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths
straight.
Lu 3:5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought
low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
Lu 3:6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Lu 3:7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation
of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Lu 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within
yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of
these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
Lu 3:9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore
which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Lu 3:10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
Lu 3:11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart
to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
Lu 3:12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what
shall we do?
Lu 3:13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
Lu 3:14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do?
And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be
content with your wages.
Lu 3:15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts
of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
Lu 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but
one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose:
he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
Lu 3:17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will
gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
Lu 3:18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.
Lu 3:19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's
wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
Lu 3:20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
Lu 3:21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being
baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
Lu 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and
a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well
pleased.
The Battle of
Ai: Jos 8:1 And the LORD said unto Joshua,
Fear not, neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee, and arise,
go up to Ai: see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and
his city, and his land:
Jos 8:2 And thou shalt do to Ai and her king as thou didst unto Jericho and her king:
only the spoil thereof, and the cattle thereof, shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves:
lay thee an ambush for the city behind it.
Jos 8:3 So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up against Ai: and Joshua
chose out thirty thousand mighty men of valour, and sent them away by night.
Jos 8:4 And he commanded them, saying, Behold, ye shall lie in wait against the city,
even behind the city: go not very far from the city, but be ye all ready:
Jos 8:5 And I, and all the people that are with me, will approach unto the city:
and it shall come to pass, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we
will flee before them,
Jos 8:6 (For they will come out after us) till we have drawn them from the city;
for they will say, They flee before us, as at the first: therefore we will flee before
them.
Jos 8:7 Then ye shall rise up from the ambush, and seize upon the city: for the LORD
your God will deliver it into your hand.
Jos 8:8 And it shall be, when ye have taken the city, that ye shall set the city
on fire: according to the commandment of the LORD shall ye do. See, I have commanded
you.
Jos 8:9 Joshua therefore sent them forth: and they went to lie in ambush, and abode
between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua lodged that night among
the people.
Jos 8:10 And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and numbered the people, and went
up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.
Jos 8:11 And all the people, even the people of war that were with him, went up,
and drew nigh, and came before the city, and pitched on the north side of Ai: now
there was a valley between them and Ai.
Jos 8:12 And he took about five thousand men, and set them to lie in ambush between
Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.
Jos 8:13 And when they had set the people, even all the host that was on the north
of the city, and their liers in wait on the west of the city, Joshua went that night
into the midst of the valley.
Jos 8:14 And it came to pass, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hasted and rose
up early, and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle, he and all his
people, at a time appointed, before the plain; but he wist not that there were liers
in ambush against him behind the city.
Jos 8:15 And Joshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fled
by the way of the wilderness.
Jos 8:16 And all the people that were in Ai were called together to pursue after
them: and they pursued after Joshua, and were drawn away from the city.
Jos 8:17 And there was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, that went not out after Israel:
and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.
Jos 8:18 And the LORD said unto Joshua, Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand
toward Ai; for I will give it into thine hand. And Joshua stretched out the spear
that he had in his hand toward the city.
Jos 8:19 And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as
he had stretched out his hand: and they entered into the city, and took it, and hasted
and set the city on fire.
Jos 8:20 And when the men of Ai looked behind them, they saw, and, behold, the smoke
of the city ascended up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that
way: and the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.
Jos 8:21 And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and
that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned again, and slew the men of
Ai.
Jos 8:22 And the other issued out of the city against them; so they were in the midst
of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side: and they smote them, so that
they let none of them remain or escape.
Jos 8:23 And the king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua.
Jos 8:24 And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants
of Ai in the field, in the wilderness wherein they chased them, and when they were
all fallen on the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, that all the Israelites
returned unto Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.
Jos 8:25 And so it was, that all that fell that day, both of men and women, were
twelve thousand, even all the men of Ai.
Jos 8:26 For Joshua drew not his hand back, wherewith he stretched out the spear,
until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
Jos 8:27 Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took for a prey unto themselves,
according unto the word of the LORD which he commanded Joshua.
Jos 8:28 And Joshua burnt Ai, and made it an heap for ever, even a desolation unto
this day.
Jos 8:29 And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide: and as soon as the
sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree,
and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap
of stones, that remaineth unto this day.
The Battle
of Jericho: Jos 6:1 Now Jericho was straitly
shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
Jos 6:2 And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho,
and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
Jos 6:3 And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the
city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
Jos 6:4 And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns:
and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall
blow with the trumpets.
Jos 6:5 And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's
horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with
a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall
ascend up every man straight before him.
Jos 6:6 And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up
the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns
before the ark of the LORD.
Jos 6:7 And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that
is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD.
Jos 6:8 And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven
priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the LORD, and
blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
Jos 6:9 And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and
the rereward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
Jos 6:10 And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make
any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until
the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.
Jos 6:11 So the ark of the LORD compassed the city, going about it once: and they
came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
Jos 6:12 And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of
the LORD.
Jos 6:13 And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of
the LORD went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went
before them; but the rereward came after the ark of the LORD, the priests going on,
and blowing with the trumpets.
Jos 6:14 And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp:
so they did six days.
Jos 6:15 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning
of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that
day they compassed the city seven times.
Jos 6:16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the
trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.
Jos 6:17 And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the
LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house,
because she hid the messengers that we sent.
Jos 6:18 And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make
yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel
a curse, and trouble it.
Jos 6:19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated
unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.
Jos 6:20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came
to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with
a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the
city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
Jos 6:21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman,
young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
Jos 6:22 But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go
into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as
ye sware unto her.
Jos 6:23 And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her
father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought
out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.
Jos 6:24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver,
and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of
the house of the LORD.
Jos 6:25 And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and
all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid
the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Jos 6:26 And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the
LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation
thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.
Jos 6:27 So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the
country.

Being Born Again:
Joh 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named
Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
Joh 3:2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou
art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except
God be with him.
Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except
a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Joh 3:4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter
the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of
water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Joh 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit
is spirit.
Joh 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Joh 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but
canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born
of the Spirit.
Joh 3:9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
Joh 3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest
not these things?
Joh 3:11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that
we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
Joh 3:12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe,
if I tell you of heavenly things?
Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven,
even the Son of man which is in heaven.
Joh 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son
of man be lifted up:
Joh 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the
world through him might be saved.
Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is
condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten
Son of God.
Joh 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men
loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Joh 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light,
lest his deeds should be reproved.
Joh 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made
manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Being Made Free:
Joh 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which
believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Being
More than a Conqueror: Ro 8:37 Nay, in all
these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
Being
Spiritually Minded: Ro 8:6 For to be carnally
minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Ro 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the
law of God, neither indeed can be.
Ro 8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
Ro 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of
God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Ro 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit
is life because of righteousness.
Ro 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you,
he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his
Spirit that dwelleth in you.
Being Under
Grace: Ro 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion
over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
Ro 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace?
God forbid.
The Better
Covenant: Heb 8:1 Now of the things which we
have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right
hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
Heb 8:2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched,
and not man.
Heb 8:3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore
it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
Heb 8:4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are
priests that offer gifts according to the law:
Heb 8:5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished
of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make
all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
Heb 8:6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is
the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have
been sought for the second.
Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
Heb 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when
I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued
not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after
those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in
their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
Heb 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother,
saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their
iniquities will I remember no more.
Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which
decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
Heb 9:1 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and
a worldly sanctuary.
Heb 9:2 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick,
and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.
Heb 9:3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of
all;
Heb 9:4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about
with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded,
and the tables of the covenant;
Heb 9:5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot
now speak particularly.
Heb 9:6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the
first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.
Heb 9:7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without
blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
Heb 9:8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was
not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:
Heb 9:9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both
gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining
to the conscience;
Heb 9:10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances,
imposed on them until the time of reformation.
Heb 9:11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater
and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
Heb 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered
in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
Heb 9:13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling
the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit
offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve
the living God?
Heb 9:15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means
of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament,
they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
Heb 9:16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the
testator.
Heb 9:17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength
at all while the testator liveth.
Heb 9:18 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
Heb 9:19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the
law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and
hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
Heb 9:20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto
you.
Heb 9:21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels
of the ministry.
Heb 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding
of blood is no remission.
Heb 9:23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should
be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices
than these.
Heb 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are
the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of
God for us:
Heb 9:25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth
into the holy place every year with blood of others;
Heb 9:26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world:
but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice
of himself.
Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Heb 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that
look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
Heb 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image
of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually
make the comers thereunto perfect.
Heb 10:2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers
once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
Heb 10:3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every
year.
Heb 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take
away sins.
Heb 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering
thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
Heb 10:6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
Heb 10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,)
to do thy will, O God.
Heb 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering
for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the
law;
Heb 10:9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first,
that he may establish the second.
Heb 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of
Jesus Christ once for all.
Heb 10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the
same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
Heb 10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat
down on the right hand of God;
Heb 10:13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
Heb 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
Heb 10:15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said
before,
Heb 10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith
the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
Heb 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
Heb 10:18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
Heb 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood
of Jesus,
Heb 10:20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the
veil, that is to say, his flesh;
Heb 10:21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
Heb 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our
hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
Heb 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he
is faithful that promised;)
The Birth
of Jesus: Mt 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ
was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came
together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
Mt 1:19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a
publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
Mt 1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared
unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee
Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
Mt 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for
he shall save his people from their sins.
Mt 1:22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the
Lord by the prophet, saying,
Mt 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they
shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Mt 1:24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden
him, and took unto him his wife:
Mt 1:25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called
his name JESUS.
Mt 2:1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king,
behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
Mt 2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star
in the east, and are come to worship him.
Mt 2:3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem
with him.
Mt 2:4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together,
he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
Mt 2:5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by
the prophet,
Mt 2:6 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes
of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
Mt 2:7 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently
what time the star appeared.
Mt 2:8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the
young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and
worship him also.
Mt 2:9 When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they
saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child
was.
Mt 2:10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
Mt 2:11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary
his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures,
they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
The
Birth of John the Baptist: Lu 1:5 There was
in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the
course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
Lu 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and
ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Lu 1:7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were
now well stricken in years.
Lu 1:8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God
in the order of his course,
Lu 1:9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense
when he went into the temple of the Lord.
Lu 1:10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of
incense.
Lu 1:11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side
of the altar of incense.
Lu 1:12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
Lu 1:13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard;
and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
Lu 1:14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
Lu 1:15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine
nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's
womb.
Lu 1:16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
Lu 1:17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the
hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just;
to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Lu 1:18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an
old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
Lu 1:19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence
of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
Lu 1:20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that
these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall
be fulfilled in their season.
Lu 1:21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long
in the temple.
Lu 1:22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that
he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
Lu 1:23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished,
he departed to his own house.
Lu 1:24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months,
saying,
Lu 1:25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to
take away my reproach among men.
Lu 1:26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of
Galilee, named Nazareth,
Lu 1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David;
and the virgin's name was Mary.
Lu 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured,
the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
Lu 1:29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind
what manner of salutation this should be.
Lu 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with
God.
Lu 1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and
shalt call his name JESUS.
Lu 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord
God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
Lu 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there
shall be no end.
Lu 1:34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
Lu 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon
thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy
thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
Lu 1:36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old
age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
Lu 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
Lu 1:38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to
thy word. And the angel departed from her.
Lu 1:39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste,
into a city of Juda;
Lu 1:40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
Lu 1:41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the
babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
Lu 1:42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
Lu 1:43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Lu 1:44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the
babe leaped in my womb for joy.
Lu 1:45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those
things which were told her from the Lord.
Lu 1:46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
Lu 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Lu 1:48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from
henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Lu 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
Lu 1:50 And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
Lu 1:51 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the
imagination of their hearts.
Lu 1:52 He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
Lu 1:53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty
away.
Lu 1:54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
Lu 1:55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
Lu 1:56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
Lu 1:57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought
forth a son.
Lu 1:58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy
upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
Lu 1:59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child;
and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
Lu 1:60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
Lu 1:61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this
name.
Lu 1:62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
Lu 1:63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And
they marvelled all.
Lu 1:64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake,
and praised God.
Lu 1:65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were
noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.
Lu 1:66 And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner
of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.
Lu 1:67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied,
saying,
Lu 1:68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
Lu 1:69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant
David;
Lu 1:70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the
world began:
Lu 1:71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate
us;
Lu 1:72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
Lu 1:73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
Lu 1:74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our
enemies might serve him without fear,
Lu 1:75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
Lu 1:76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt
go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
Lu 1:77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their
sins,
Lu 1:78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath
visited us,
Lu 1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to
guide our feet into the way of peace.
Lu 1:80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till
the day of his shewing unto Israel.
The Birth
of Moses: Ex 2:1 And there went a man of the
house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
Ex 2:2 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was
a goodly child, she hid him three months.
Ex 2:3 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes,
and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid
it in the flags by the river's brink.
Ex 2:4 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
Ex 2:5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her
maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags,
she sent her maid to fetch it.
Ex 2:6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept.
And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
Ex 2:7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a
nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
Ex 2:8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's
mother.
Ex 2:9 And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for
me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
Ex 2:10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became
her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the
water.
The Blessing
of God: Pr 10:22 The blessing of the LORD,
it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.
The Bread of
Life: Joh 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
Joh 6:48 I am that bread of life.
Joh 6:49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
Joh 6:50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof,
and not die.
Joh 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this
bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which
I will give for the life of the world.
The
Breakfast on the Beach: Joh 21:1 After these
things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on
this wise shewed he himself.
Joh 21:2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael
of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.
Joh 21:3 Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also
go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night
they caught nothing.
Joh 21:4 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples
knew not that it was Jesus.
Joh 21:5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him,
No.
Joh 21:6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye
shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude
of fishes.
Joh 21:7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord.
Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him,
(for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.
Joh 21:8 And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from
land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.
Joh 21:9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there,
and fish laid thereon, and bread.
Joh 21:10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.
Joh 21:11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an
hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net
broken.
Joh 21:12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask
him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
Joh 21:13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.
Joh 21:14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples,
after that he was risen from the dead.
Joh 21:15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas,
lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I
love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
Joh 21:16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou
me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him,
Feed my sheep.
Joh 21:17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me?
Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he
said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus
saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
Joh 21:18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself,
and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch
forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest
not.
Joh 21:19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when
he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.
Joh 21:20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following;
which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth
thee?
Joh 21:21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
Joh 21:22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that
to thee? follow thou me.
Joh 21:23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should
not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry
till I come, what is that to thee?
Joh 21:24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these
things: and we know that his testimony is true.
Joh 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they
should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain
the books that should be written. Amen.
Bridling
the Tongue: Jas 1:26 If any man among you seem
to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's
religion is vain.
The Burning
Bush: Ex 3:1 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro
his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of
the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.
Ex 3:2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the
midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush
was not consumed.
Ex 3:3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush
is not burnt.
Ex 3:4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out
of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.
Ex 3:5 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for
the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.
Ex 3:6 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God
of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look
upon God.
Ex 3:7 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are
in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their
sorrows;
Ex 3:8 And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to
bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing
with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the
Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
Ex 3:9 Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me:
and I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.
Ex 3:10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring
forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
Ex 3:11 And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that
I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?
Ex 3:12 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto
thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt,
ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
Ex 3:13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel,
and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they
shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
Ex 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say
unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Ex 3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of
Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial
unto all generations.
Ex 3:16 Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say unto them, The LORD
God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared unto me,
saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt:
Ex 3:17 And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto
the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites,
and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey.
Ex 3:18 And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the elders
of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The LORD God of the
Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech thee, three days' journey
into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
Ex 3:19 And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a mighty
hand.
Ex 3:20 And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which
I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go.
Ex 3:21 And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it
shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty:
Ex 3:22 But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth
in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put
them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
Cain and Abel: Gen.
4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have
gotten a man from the LORD.
Gen. 4:2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but
Cain was a tiller of the ground.
Gen. 4:3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of
the ground an offering unto the LORD.
Gen. 4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat
thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
Gen. 4:5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very
wroth, and his countenance fell.
Gen. 4:6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance
fallen?
Gen. 4:7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well,
sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over
him.
Gen. 4:8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were
in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
Gen. 4:9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know
not: Am I my brother's keeper?
Gen. 4:10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth
unto me from the ground.
Gen. 4:11 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to
receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
Gen. 4:12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her
strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
Gen. 4:13 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
Gen. 4:14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and
from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth;
and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
Gen. 4:15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance
shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding
him should kill him.
Gen. 4:16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land
of Nod, on the east of Eden.
The Call of Abraham: Ge
12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy
kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
Ge 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy
name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
Ge 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and
in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
The
Calming of the Storm: Mark 4:35 And the same
day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other
side.
Mark 4:36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was
in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
Mark 4:37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship,
so that it was now full.
Mark 4:38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they
awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
Mark 4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still.
And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Mark 4:40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no
faith?
Mark 4:41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man
is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
The Centurion's
Faith: Lu 7:1 Now when he had ended all his
sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
Lu 7:2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready
to die.
Lu 7:3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching
him that he would come and heal his servant.
Lu 7:4 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he
was worthy for whom he should do this:
Lu 7:5 For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
Lu 7:6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the
centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I
am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
Lu 7:7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a
word, and my servant shall be healed.
Lu 7:8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say
unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant,
Do this, and he doeth it.
Lu 7:9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about,
and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great
faith, no, not in Israel.
Lu 7:10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole
that had been sick.
The Chariot
of Fire: 2Ki 2:1 And it came to pass, when
the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha
from Gilgal.
2Ki 2:2 And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent
me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth,
I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.
2Ki 2:3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and
said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head
to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
2Ki 2:4 And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath
sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will
not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.
2Ki 2:5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said
unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day?
And he answered, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
2Ki 2:6 And Elijah said unto him, Tarry, I pray thee, here; for the LORD hath sent
me to Jordan. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not
leave thee. And they two went on.
2Ki 2:7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off:
and they two stood by Jordan.
2Ki 2:8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters,
and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
2Ki 2:9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha,
Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said,
I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
2Ki 2:10 And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me
when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be
so.
2Ki 2:11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there
appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and
Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
2Ki 2:12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel,
and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes,
and rent them in two pieces.
2Ki 2:13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back,
and stood by the bank of Jordan;
2Ki 2:14 And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters,
and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters,
they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
2Ki 2:15 And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him,
they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and
bowed themselves to the ground before him.
The Chariots
of Fire 2: 2Ki 6:8 Then the king of Syria warred
against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place
shall be my camp.
2Ki 6:9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou
pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
2Ki 6:10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and
warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
2Ki 6:11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing;
and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us is
for the king of Israel?
2Ki 6:12 And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet
that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy
bedchamber.
2Ki 6:13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And
it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.
2Ki 6:14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they
came by night, and compassed the city about.
2Ki 6:15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth,
behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant
said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
2Ki 6:16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that
be with them.
2Ki 6:17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may
see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the
mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
2Ki 6:18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite
this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according
to the word of Elisha.
The Cheerful
Giver: 2Co 9:6 But this I say, He which soweth
sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also
bountifully.
2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly,
or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
2Co 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having
all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
2Co 9:9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his
righteousness remaineth for ever.
2Co 9:10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food,
and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)
2Co 9:11 Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through
us thanksgiving to God.
2Co 9:12 For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the
saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;
2Co 9:13 Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your
professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution
unto them, and unto all men;
2Co 9:14 And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace
of God in you.
2Co 9:15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.
Children's
Duty to Parents: Eph 6:1 Children, obey your

Eph 6:2 Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)
Eph 6:3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
The Christmas
Story: Lu 2:1 And it came to pass in those
days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should
be taxed.
Lu 2:2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
Lu 2:3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
Lu 2:4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea,
unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and
lineage of David:)
Lu 2:5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
Lu 2:6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that
she should be delivered.
Lu 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes,
and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
Lu 2:8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping
watch over their flock by night.
Lu 2:9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone
round about them: and they were sore afraid.
Lu 2:10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings
of great joy, which shall be to all people.
Lu 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ
the Lord.
Lu 2:12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling
clothes, lying in a manger.
Lu 2:13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising
God, and saying,
Lu 2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
Lu 2:15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven,
the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this
thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
Lu 2:16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying
in a manger.
Lu 2:17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told
them concerning this child.
Lu 2:18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them
by the shepherds.
Lu 2:19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
Lu 2:20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things
that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.
The
City of the Living God: Heb 12:22 But ye are
come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem,
and to an innumerable company of angels,
Heb 12:23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written
in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
Heb 12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling,
that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
The
Cleansing of a Leper: Lu 5:12 And it came to
pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus
fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me
clean.
Lu 5:13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean.
And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
Lu 5:14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest,
and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
Lu 5:15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes
came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
The
Coat of Many Colours: Ge 37:3 Now Israel loved
Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he
made him a coat of many colours.
Ge 37:4 And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren,
they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
Ge 37:5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him
yet the more.
Ge 37:6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
Ge 37:7 For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose,
and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance
to my sheaf.
Ge 37:8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou
indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and
for his words.
Ge 37:9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold,
I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars
made obeisance to me.
Ge 37:10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked
him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy
mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
Ge 37:11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
Ge 37:12 And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
Ge 37:13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem?
come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.
Ge 37:14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren,
and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale
of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
Ge 37:15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field:
and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
Ge 37:16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their
flocks.
Ge 37:17 And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us
go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
Ge 37:18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they
conspired against him to slay him.
Ge 37:19 And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh.
Ge 37:20 Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and
we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become
of his dreams.
Ge 37:21 And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands; and said,
Let us not kill him.
Ge 37:22 And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit that
is in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of their
hands, to deliver him to his father again.
Ge 37:23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stript
Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colours that was on him;
Ge 37:24 And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there
was no water in it.
Ge 37:25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked,
and, behold, a company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing
spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.
Ge 37:26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother,
and conceal his blood?
Ge 37:27 Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon
him; for he is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content.
Ge 37:28 Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up
Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver:
and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
Ge 37:29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit;
and he rent his clothes.
Ge 37:30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, whither
shall I go?
Ge 37:31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the
coat in the blood;
Ge 37:32 And they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father;
and said, This have we found: know now whether it be thy son's coat or no.
Ge 37:33 And he knew it, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured
him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.
Ge 37:34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned
for his son many days.
Ge 37:35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused
to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning.
Thus his father wept for him.
Ge 37:36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's,
and captain of the guard.
Ge 38:1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren,
and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
Ge 38:2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah;
and he took her, and went in unto her.
Ge 38:3 And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.
Ge 38:4 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.
Ge 38:5 And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah:
and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.
Ge 38:6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.
Ge 38:7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD
slew him.
Ge 38:8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and
raise up seed to thy brother.
Ge 38:9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when
he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he
should give seed to his brother.
Ge 38:10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.
Ge 38:11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father's
house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as
his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
Ge 38:12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's wife died; and Judah
was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah
the Adullamite.
Ge 38:13 And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law goeth up to Timnath
to shear his sheep.
Ge 38:14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a vail,
and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for
she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife.
Ge 38:15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered
her face.
Ge 38:16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me
come in unto thee; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said,
What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?
Ge 38:17 And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou
give me a pledge, till thou send it?
Ge 38:18 And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and
thy bracelets, and thy staff that is in thine hand. And he gave it her, and came
in unto her, and she conceived by him.
Ge 38:19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on
the garments of her widowhood.
Ge 38:20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive
his pledge from the woman's hand: but he found her not.
Ge 38:21 Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was
openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this place.
Ge 38:22 And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men
of the place said, that there was no harlot in this place.
Ge 38:23 And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent
this kid, and thou hast not found her.
Ge 38:24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying,
Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child
by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.
Ge 38:25 When she was brought forth, she sent to her father in law, saying, By the
man, whose these are, am I with child: and she said, Discern, I pray thee, whose
are these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff.
Ge 38:26 And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She hath been more righteous than
I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more.
Ge 38:27 And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were
in her womb.
Ge 38:28 And it came to pass, when she travailed, that the one put out his hand:
and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came
out first.
Ge 38:29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother
came out: and she said, How hast thou broken forth? this breach be upon thee: therefore
his name was called Pharez.
Ge 38:30 And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his
hand: and his name was called Zarah.
Ge 39:1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh,
captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which
had brought him down thither.
Ge 39:2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in
the house of his master the Egyptian.
Ge 39:3 And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all
that he did to prosper in his hand.
Ge 39:4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer
over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
Ge 39:5 And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house,
and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's
sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in
the field.
Ge 39:6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had,
save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured.
Ge 39:7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes
upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.
Ge 39:8 But he refused, and said unto his master's wife, Behold, my master wotteth
not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;
Ge 39:9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any
thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness,
and sin against God?
Ge 39:10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened
not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
Ge 39:11 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to
do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.
Ge 39:12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his
garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
Ge 39:13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand,
and was fled forth,
Ge 39:14 That she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying,
See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with
me, and I cried with a loud voice:
Ge 39:15 And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried,
that he left his garment with me, and fled, and got him out.
Ge 39:16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.
Ge 39:17 And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant,
which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me:
Ge 39:18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his
garment with me, and fled out.
Ge 39:19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which
she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath
was kindled.
Ge 39:20 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where
the king's prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison.
Ge 39:21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour
in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
Ge 39:22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners
that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it.
Ge 39:23 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand;
because the LORD was with him, and that which he did, the LORD made it to prosper.
Ge 40:1 And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt
and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
Ge 40:2 And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the
butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
Ge 40:3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the
prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
Ge 40:4 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them:
and they continued a season in ward.
Ge 40:5 And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each
man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the
king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
Ge 40:6 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold,
they were sad.
Ge 40:7 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's
house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?
Ge 40:8 And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter
of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them,
I pray you.
Ge 40:9 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream,
behold, a vine was before me;
Ge 40:10 And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and
her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
Ge 40:11 And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them
into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
Ge 40:12 And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches
are three days:
Ge 40:13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee
unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former
manner when thou wast his butler.
Ge 40:14 But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray
thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
Ge 40:15 For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also
have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
Ge 40:16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto
Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
Ge 40:17 And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh;
and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.
Ge 40:18 And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three
baskets are three days:
Ge 40:19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and
shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
Ge 40:20 And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he
made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler
and of the chief baker among his servants.
Ge 40:21 And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave
the cup into Pharaoh's hand:
Ge 40:22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
Ge 40:23 Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.
The
Coin in a Fish's Mouth: Mt 17:24 And when they
were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said,
Doth not your master pay tribute?
Mt 17:25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him,
saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom
or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
Mt 17:26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children
free.
Mt 17:27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast
an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his
mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and
thee.
The Comforter:
Joh 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth;
It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will
not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
Joh 16:8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness,
and of judgment:
Joh 16:9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
Joh 16:10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
Joh 16:11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
Joh 16:12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
Joh 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all
truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall
he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
Joh 16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto
you.
Joh 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall
take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Joh 16:16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and
ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
Coming Boldly:
Heb 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great high
priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our
profession.
Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling
of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain
mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Condemnation: Ro 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which
are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Ro 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the
law of sin and death.
Ro 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God
sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in
the flesh:
Ro 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after
the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Ro 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they
that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
Ro 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and
peace.
Considering
the Poor: Ps 41:1 <<To the chief Musician,
A Psalm of David.>> Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will
deliver him in time of trouble.
Ps 41:2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon
the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
Contentment: Heb 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness;
and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave
thee, nor forsake thee.
Heb 13:6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what
man shall do unto me.
The Creation: Ge 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Ge 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of
the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Ge 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Ge 1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the
darkness.
Ge 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening
and the morning were the first day.
Ge 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let
it divide the waters from the waters.
Ge 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament
from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
Ge 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were
the second day.
Ge 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one
place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
Ge 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters
called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
Ge 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and
the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth:
and it was so.
Ge 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind,
and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw
that it was good.
Ge 1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
Ge 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide
the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days,
and years:
Ge 1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon
the earth: and it was so.
Ge 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the
lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
Ge 1:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
Ge 1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from
the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
Ge 1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Ge 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that
hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Ge 1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which
the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after
his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Ge 1:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters
in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
Ge 1:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
Ge 1:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind,
cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
Ge 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their
kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that
it was good.
Ge 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them
have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the
cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon
the earth.
Ge 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.
Ge 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply,
and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Ge 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is
upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree
yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Ge 1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every
thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green
herb for meat: and it was so.
Ge 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.
And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Ge 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Ge 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested
on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Ge 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he
had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Ge 2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created,
in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
Ge 2:5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of
the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth,
and there was not a man to till the ground.
Ge 2:6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the
ground.
Ge 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
The
Crown of Righteousness: 2Ti 4:7 I have fought
a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
2Ti 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord,
the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all
them also that love his appearing.
The Crucifixion:
Lu 23:1 And the whole multitude of them arose,
and led him unto Pilate.
Lu 23:2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the
nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ
a King.
Lu 23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered
him and said, Thou sayest it.
Lu 23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault
in this man.
Lu 23:5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching
throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
Lu 23:6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.
Lu 23:7 And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent
him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
Lu 23:8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see
him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have
seen some miracle done by him.
Lu 23:9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
Lu 23:10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
Lu 23:11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed
him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
Lu 23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before
they were at enmity between themselves.
Lu 23:13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers
and the people,
Lu 23:14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth
the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in
this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
Lu 23:15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death
is done unto him.
Lu 23:16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
Lu 23:17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
Lu 23:18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release
unto us Barabbas:
Lu 23:19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into
prison.)
Lu 23:20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.
Lu 23:21 But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.
Lu 23:22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have
found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.
Lu 23:23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified.
And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.
Lu 23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
Lu 23:25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into
prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
Lu 23:26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming
out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.
Lu 23:27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also
bewailed and lamented him.
Lu 23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me,
but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
Lu 23:29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are
the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.
Lu 23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills,
Cover us.
Lu 23:31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
Lu 23:32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.
Lu 23:33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they
crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
Lu 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And
they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
Lu 23:35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him,
saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.
Lu 23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
Lu 23:37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
Lu 23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and
Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Lu 23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou
be Christ, save thyself and us.
Lu 23:40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing
thou art in the same condemnation?
Lu 23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this
man hath done nothing amiss.
Lu 23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
Lu 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with
me in paradise.
Lu 23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth
until the ninth hour.
Lu 23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
Lu 23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands
I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
Lu 23:47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly
this was a righteous man.
Lu 23:48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things
which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
Lu 23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee,
stood afar off, beholding these things.
Lu 23:50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good
man, and a just:
Lu 23:51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of
Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.
Lu 23:52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
Lu 23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre
that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.
Lu 23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
Lu 23:55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and
beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.
Lu 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath
day according to the commandment.
The Cruse of
Oil: 1Ki 17:8 And the word of the LORD came
unto him, saying,
1Ki 17:9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there:
behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.
1Ki 17:10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the
city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her,
and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
1Ki 17:11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me,
I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.
1Ki 17:12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful
of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two
sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and
die.
1Ki 17:13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make
me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and
for thy son.
1Ki 17:14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste,
neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon
the earth.
1Ki 17:15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he,
and her house, did eat many days.
1Ki 17:16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according
to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.
