1 Kings 6:1-38

1

And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.

2

And the house which king Solomon built for the LORD, the length thereof was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits, and the height thereof thirty cubits.

3

And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; and ten cubits was the breadth thereof before the house.

4

And for the house he made windows of narrow lights.

5

And against the wall of the house he built chambers round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle: and he made chambers round about:

6

The nethermost chamber was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad: for without in the wall of the house he made narrowed rests round about, that the beams should not be fastened in the walls of the house.

7

And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.

8

The door for the middle chamber was in the right side of the house: and they went up with winding stairs into the middle chamber, and out of the middle into the third.

9

So he built the house, and finished it; and covered the house with beams and boards of cedar.

10

And then he built chambers against all the house, five cubits high: and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.

11

And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,

12

Concerning this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:

13

And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.

14

So Solomon built the house, and finished it.

15

And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling: and he covered them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.

16

And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built them for it within, even for the oracle, even for the most holy place.

17

And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.

18

And the cedar of the house within was carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.

19

And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

20

And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar.

21

So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.

22

And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that was by the oracle he overlaid with gold.

23

And within the oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high.

24

And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.

25

And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubims were of one measure and one size.

26

The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub.

27

And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.

28

And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.

29

And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.

30

And the floors of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.

31

And for the entering of the oracle he made doors of olive tree: the lintel and side posts were a fifth part of the wall.

32

The two doors also were of olive tree; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold, and spread gold upon the cherubims, and upon the palm trees.

33

So also made he for the door of the temple posts of olive tree, a fourth part of the wall.

34

And the two doors were of fir tree: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.

35

And he carved thereon cherubims and palm trees and open flowers: and covered them with gold fitted upon the carved work.

36

And he built the inner court with three rows of hewed stone, and a row of cedar beams.

37

In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif:

38

And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.

Psalms 28:1-9

1

Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

2

Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

3

Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.

4

Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.

5

Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

6

Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.

7

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

8

The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.

9

Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.

Acts 7:22-60

22

And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.

23

And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.

24

And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:

25

For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.

26

And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?

27

But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

28

Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?

29

Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.

30

And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.

31

When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the LORD came unto him,

32

Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.

33

Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.

34

I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.

35

This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.

36

He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

37

This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.

38

This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:

39

To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,

40

Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

41

And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.

42

Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?

43

Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

44

Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.

45

Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;

46

Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.

47

But Solomon built him an house.

48

Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,

49

Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?

50

Hath not my hand made all these things?

51

Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.

52

Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:

53

Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.

54

When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.

55

But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,

56

And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

57

Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,

58

And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.

59

And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

60

And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

Romans 3:1-19

1

What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?

2

Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

3

For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

4

God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

5

But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)

6

God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

7

For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

8

And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.

9

What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

10

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

11

There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

12

They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

13

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

14

Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

15

Their feet are swift to shed blood:

16

Destruction and misery are in their ways:

17

And the way of peace have they not known:

18

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

19

Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

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.

1 Peter 4:1-19

1

Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

2

That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

3

For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

4

Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

5

Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.

6

For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

7

But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

8

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

9

Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

10

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

11

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

12

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:

13

But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

14

If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

15

But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.

16

Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

17

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

18

And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

19

Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
