Exodus 2:1-10

1

And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.

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.

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.

4

And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.

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.

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.

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?

8

And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.

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 women took the child, and nursed it.

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.

Deuteronomy 30:1-10

1

And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath driven thee,

2

And shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;

3

That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.

4

If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:

5

And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.

6

And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

7

And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.

8

And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.

9

And the LORD thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the LORD will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:

10

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.

Psalms 86:1-17

1

Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

2

Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

3

Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

4

Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

5

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

7

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

8

Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.

9

All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

10

For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

11

Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

12

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

13

For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

14

O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.

15

But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, long suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

16

O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

17

Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.

Lamentations 3:19-38

19

Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

20

My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.

21

This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.

22

It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

23

They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

24

The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

25

The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.

26

It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

It is good for a man that he bear the yoke of his youth.

28

He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him.

29

He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.

30

He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.

31

For the LORD will not cast off for ever:

32

But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.

33

For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.

To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth.

35

To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,

36

To subvert a man in his cause, the LORD approveth not.

Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?

38

Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?

Zechariah 7:8-14

8

And the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah, saying,

9

Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother:

10

And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.

11

But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.

12

Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.

13

Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the LORD of hosts:

14

But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them, that no man passed through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant land desolate.

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

29

And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.

30

And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

31

Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.

32

Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

33

And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

Matthew 18:21-35

21

Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

23

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

24

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

25

But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

26

The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

27

Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

28

But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

29

And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

30

And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

31

So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

32

Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

33

Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

34

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

35

So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

31

And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.

32

And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?

And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

42

And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

43

And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;

44

And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

45

But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

Mark 5:1-20

1

And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

2

And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

3

Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

4

Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

5

And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

6

But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

7

And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

8

For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

9

And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

10

And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

11

Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

12

And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

13

And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

14

And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

15

And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

16

And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.

17

And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.

18

And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.

36

Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.

And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.

1

Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

2

And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.

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.

4

And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:

5

For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.

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:

7

Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.

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.

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.

10

And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.

11

And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.

12

Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.

13

And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

14

And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

15

And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.

16

But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

30

And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

31

And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

32

And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

33

But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

34

And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

35

And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

36

Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

37

And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

Luke 15:1-32

1

Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.

2

And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.

3

And he spake this parable unto them, saying,

4

What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

5

And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

6

And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.

7

I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

8

Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?

9

And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.

10

Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.

11

And he said, A certain man had two sons:

12

And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.

13

And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.

14

And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.

15

And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

16

And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.

17

And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

18

I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,

19

And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.

20

And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

21

And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.

22

But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:

23

And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:

24

For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

25

Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.

26

And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.

27

And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.

28

And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.

29

And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

30

But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.

31

And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.

32

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Romans 9:1-24

1

I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

2

That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.

3

For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

4

Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;

5

Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

6

Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:

7

Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

8

That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

9

For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.

10

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

11

(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)

12

It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

13

As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

14

What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

15

For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

16

So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

17

For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.

18

Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

19

Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

20

Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?

21

Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

22

What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:

23

And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

24

Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

Hebrews 5:1-14

1

For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:

2

Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

3

And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

4

And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.

5

So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

6

As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

7

Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;

8

Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;

9

And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

10

Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.

11

Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.

12

For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

13

For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

14

But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Hebrews 10:19-39

19

Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,

20

By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

21

And having an high priest over the house of God;

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.

23

Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

24

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:

25

Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

26

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27

But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

28

He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:

29

Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

30

For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

31

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

32

But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;

33

Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.

34

For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

35

Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

36

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

37

For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.

38

Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

39

But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

1 Peter 3:1-12

1

Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

2

While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

3

Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

4

But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

5

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:

6

Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.

7

Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.

8

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

9

Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

10

For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

11

Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

12

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

1 John 3:13-24

13

Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

14

We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

15

Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

16

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

17

But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

18

My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

19

And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

20

For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

21

Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

22

And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

23

And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

24

And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

17

But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

18

How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

19

These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

20

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

21

Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

22

And of some have compassion, making a difference:

23

And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

24

Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

25

To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
