Those that are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be healthy and flourishing;

As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.

When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies in them; for his iniquity that he has done shall he die.

Let us know, let us press on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

O Ephraim, what shall I do unto you? O Judah, what shall I do unto you? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goes away.

And those that are turned back from the LORD; and those that have not sought the LORD, nor inquired for him.

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Those on the rock are they, who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who for awhile believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

But that on the good ground are they, who in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

But I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not: and when you have returned, strengthen your brethren.

As he spoke these words, many believed on him.

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you: continue you in my love.

If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cling unto the Lord.

Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life:

I am afraid for you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain.

You did run well; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth?

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor be in vain.

But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.

For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end;

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.

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

Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that have just escaped from them who live in error.

For if after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog has turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

But the anointing which you have received of him abides in you, and you need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, you shall abide in him.

Fear none of those things which you will suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you shall have tribulation ten days: be faithful unto death, and I will give you a crown of life.

Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a rock:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

He is like a man who built a house, and dug deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

In whom all the building fitly framed together grows unto a holy temple in the Lord:

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

From whom the whole body being fitly joined together and knit together by that which every joint supplies, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, makes increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

If a man abides not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, since you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for you yourselves know that we are appointed unto this.

For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;

And hope makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given unto us.

For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what is the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, who has loved us, and has given us everlasting encouragement and good hope through grace,

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters into that within the veil;

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the children of God: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not.

And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure.

Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and brings forth fruit, as it does also in you, since the day you heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

And he said unto them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you upon the nations that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear reports of you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you.

And lest you lift up your eyes unto heaven, and when you see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, should be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD your God has apportioned unto all nations under the whole heaven.

Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.

And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved.

Of which I am made a minister, according to the commission of God which is given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God;

For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

That he may take part in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

But rise, and stand upon your feet: for I have appeared unto you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of these things which you have seen, and of those things in which I will appear unto you;

That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not my own self.

Who also has made us able ministers of the new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but the spirit gives life.

Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;

And all things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that you receive not the grace of God in vain.

Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labors more abundant, in stripes beyond measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths often.

Of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.

Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has enabled me, that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

To this I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

For which I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

But you watch in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fully carry out your ministry.

For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
