Matthew 25

1	Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2	And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3	They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4	But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5	While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6	And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7	Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8	And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
9	But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10	And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11	Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12	But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13	Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
14	For the kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
15	And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
16	Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
17	And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18	But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
19	After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20	And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21	His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22	He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
23	His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
24	Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strewed:
25	And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26	His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strewed:
27	Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28	Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29	For unto everyone that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
30	And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
31	When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32	And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
33	And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34	Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35	For I was hungry, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36	Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37	Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38	When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39	Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40	And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41	Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42	For I was hungry, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43	I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44	Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45	Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46	And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

Leviticus 24

1	And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
2	Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.
3	Without the veil of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening unto the morning before the LORD continually: it shall be a statute forever in your generations.
4	He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD continually.
5	And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth deals shall be in one cake.
6	And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before the LORD.
7	And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
8	Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
9	And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.
10	And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;
11	And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan: )
12	And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be showed them.
13	And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
14	Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15	And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
16	And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death.
17	And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.
18	And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.
19	And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;
20	Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.
21	And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.
22	Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God.
23	And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.

2 Corinthians 4

1	Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
2	But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3	But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4	In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
5	For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
6	For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7	But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
8	We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9	Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10	Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
11	For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12	So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13	We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
14	Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
15	For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
16	For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17	For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18	While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Revelation 6

1	And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2	And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
3	And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4	And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
5	And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6	And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7	And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8	And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
9	And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10	And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11	And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
12	And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13	And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14	And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15	And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16	And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17	For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Ecclesiastes 10

1	Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savor: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honor.
2	A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.
3	Yea also, when he that is a fool walketh by the way, his wisdom faileth him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool.
4	If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offenses.
5	There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceedeth from the ruler:
6	Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place.
7	I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.
8	He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh a hedge, a serpent shall bite him.
9	Whoso removeth stones shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth wood shall be endangered thereby.
10	If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.
11	Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better.
12	The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.
13	The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.
14	A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?
15	The labor of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.
16	Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning!
17	Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
18	By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.
19	A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
20	Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.

Psalms 114

1	When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2	Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3	The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4	The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5	What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6	Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7	Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8	Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

Proverbs 21

1	The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
2	Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.
3	To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
4	A high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
5	The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.
6	The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.
7	The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
8	The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.
9	It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
10	The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbor findeth no favor in his eyes.
11	When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
12	The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.
13	Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.
14	A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.
15	It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
16	The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.
17	He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
18	The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.
19	It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
20	There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.
21	He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honor.
22	A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
23	Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
24	Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
25	The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labor.
26	He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
27	The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
28	A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
29	A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way.
30	There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
31	The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.

1 Kings 10

1	And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions.
2	And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices, and very much gold, and precious stones: and when she was come to Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.
3	And Solomon told her all her questions: there was not any thing hid from the king, which he told her not.
4	And when the queen of Sheba had seen all Solomon's wisdom, and the house that he had built,
5	And the meat of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up unto the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit in her.
6	And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thy acts and of thy wisdom.
7	Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me: thy wisdom and prosperity exceedeth the fame which I heard.
8	Happy are thy men, happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee, and that hear thy wisdom.
9	Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel: because the LORD loved Israel forever, therefore made he thee king, to do judgment and justice.
10	And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and of spices very great store, and precious stones: there came no more such abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
11	And the navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of almug trees, and precious stones.
12	And the king made of the almug trees pillars for the house of the LORD, and for the king's house, harps also and psalteries for singers: there came no such almug trees, nor were seen unto this day.
13	And king Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants.
14	Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold,
15	Beside that he had of the merchantmen, and of the traffic of the spice merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the country.
16	And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold: six hundred shekels of gold went to one target.
17	And he made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three pound of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
18	Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the best gold.
19	The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.
20	And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom.
21	And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; none were of silver: it was nothing accounted of in the days of Solomon.
22	For the king had at sea a navy of Tharshish with the navy of Hiram: once in three years came the navy of Tharshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
23	So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom.
24	And all the earth sought to Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
25	And they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armor, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.
26	And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he bestowed in the cities for chariots, and with the king at Jerusalem.
27	And the king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore trees that are in the vale, for abundance.
28	And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and linen yarn: the king's merchants received the linen yarn at a price.
29	And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means.

Jeremiah 48

1	Against Moab thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded and taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed.
2	There shall be no more praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.
3	A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.
4	Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5	For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
6	Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.
7	For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, thou shalt also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his priests and his princes together.
8	And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the LORD hath spoken.
9	Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
10	Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.
11	Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
12	Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will send unto him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles.
13	And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
14	How say ye, We are mighty and strong men for the war?
15	Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
16	The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.
17	All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!
18	Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strongholds.
19	O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done?
20	Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,
21	And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,
22	And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth-diblathaim,
23	And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Beth-gamul, and upon Bethmeon,
24	And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25	The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the LORD.
26	Make ye him drunken: for he magnified himself against the LORD: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27	For was not Israel a derision unto thee? was he found among thieves? for since thou spakest of him, thou skippedst for joy.
28	O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove that maketh her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth.
29	We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogance, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.
30	I know his wrath, saith the LORD; but it shall not be so; his lies shall not so effect it.
31	Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; mine heart shall mourn for the men of Kir-heres.
32	O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.
33	And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.
34	From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Jahaz, have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, as a heifer of three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.
35	Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, him that offereth in the high places, and him that burneth incense to his gods.
36	Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kir-heres: because the riches that he hath gotten are perished.
37	For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: upon all the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.
38	There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein is no pleasure, saith the LORD.
39	They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.
40	For thus saith the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab.
41	Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are surprised, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42	And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the LORD.
43	Fear, and the pit, and the snare, shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the LORD.
44	He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
45	They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46	Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives.
47	Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.

Acts 2

1	And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2	And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3	And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4	And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5	And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6	Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
7	And they were all amazed and marveled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8	And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
9	Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10	Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
11	Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.
12	And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
13	Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.
14	But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:
15	For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
16	But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
17	And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
18	And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
19	And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke:
20	The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
21	And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
22	Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
23	Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:
24	Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
25	For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
26	Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
27	Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
28	Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.
29	Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us unto this day.
30	Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
31	He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
32	This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33	Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
34	For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35	Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
36	Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37	Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
38	Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39	For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
40	And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
41	Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
42	And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
43	And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.
44	And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
45	And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.
46	And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,
47	Praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
