Luke 9

1	Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
2	And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
3	And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
4	And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.
5	And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6	And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing everywhere.
7	Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead;
8	And of some, that Elijah had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.
9	And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.
10	And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.
11	And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.
12	And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place.
13	But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people.
14	For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
15	And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16	Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17	And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.
18	And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?
19	They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.
20	He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
21	And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing;
22	Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.
23	And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24	For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25	For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
26	For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.
27	But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
28	And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.
29	And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.
30	And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elijah:
31	Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
32	But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.
33	And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said.
34	While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.
35	And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
36	And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.
37	And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him.
38	And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.
39	And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.
40	And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not.
41	And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.
42	And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tore him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father.
43	And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,
44	Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
45	But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.
46	Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
47	And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,
48	And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.
49	And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.
50	And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.
51	And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,
52	And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
53	And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.
54	And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elijah did?
55	But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
56	For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.
57	And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
58	And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
59	And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
60	Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
61	And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
62	And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

Numbers 25

1	And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.
2	And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
3	And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.
4	And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.
5	And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baal-peor.
6	And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
7	And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;
8	And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
9	And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.
10	And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
11	Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12	Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
13	And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.
14	Now the name of the Israelite that was slain even that was slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites.
15	And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head over a people, and of a chief house in Midian.
16	And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
17	Vex the Midianites, and smite them:
18	For they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, which was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake.

Colossians 3

1	If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2	Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3	For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4	When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5	Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6	For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7	In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8	But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9	Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10	And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11	Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12	Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13	Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14	And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15	And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16	Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17	And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
18	Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19	Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20	Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21	Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22	Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
23	And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24	Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance; for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25	But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done; and there is no respect of persons.

1 Timothy 4

1	Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2	Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3	Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4	For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5	For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
6	If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
7	But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
8	For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
9	This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
10	For therefore we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those that believe.
11	These things command and teach.
12	Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
13	Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
14	Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
15	Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
16	Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

Job 18

1	Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2	How long will it be ere ye make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak.
3	Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?
4	He teareth himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?
5	Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.
6	The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out with him.
7	The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.
8	For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare.
9	The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.
10	The snare is laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.
11	Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet.
12	His strength shall be hunger-bitten, and destruction shall be ready at his side.
13	It shall devour the strength of his skin: even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength.
14	His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the king of terrors.
15	It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because it is none of his: brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.
16	His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off.
17	His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the street.
18	He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
19	He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.
20	They that come after him shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before were frightened.
21	Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that knoweth not God.

Psalms 142

1	Maschil of David; A Prayer when he was in the cave. I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.
2	I poured out my complaint before him; I showed before him my trouble.
3	When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
4	I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.
5	I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.
6	Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
7	Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.

Proverbs 18

1	Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
2	A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
3	When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
4	The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5	It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6	A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
7	A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8	The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9	He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
10	The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11	The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high wall in his own conceit.
12	Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honor is humility.
13	He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.
14	The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?
15	The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16	A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
17	He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbor cometh and searcheth him.
18	The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
19	A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.
20	A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
21	Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
22	Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favor of the LORD.
23	The poor useth entreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.
24	A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

2 Kings 16

1	In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.
2	Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not that which was right in the sight of the LORD his God, like David his father.
3	But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.
4	And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
5	Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.
6	At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drove the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there unto this day.
7	So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, which rise up against me.
8	And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.
9	And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.
10	And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.
11	And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made it against king Ahaz came from Damascus.
12	And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king approached to the altar, and offered thereon.
13	And he burnt his burnt offering and his meat offering, and poured his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, upon the altar.
14	And he brought also the brazen altar, which was before the LORD, from the forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of the altar.
15	And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meat offering, and the king's burnt sacrifice, and his meat offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice: and the brazen altar shall be for me to inquire by.
16	Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.
17	And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that were under it, and put it upon a pavement of stones.
18	And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he from the house of the LORD for the king of Assyria.
19	Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
20	And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.

Ezekiel 19

1	Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2	And say, What is thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.
3	And she brought up one of her whelps: it became a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men.
4	The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with chains unto the land of Egypt.
5	Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her whelps, and made him a young lion.
6	And he went up and down among the lions, he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey, and devoured men.
7	And he knew their desolate palaces, and he laid waste their cities; and the land was desolate, and the fullness thereof, by the noise of his roaring.
8	Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.
9	And they put him in ward in chains, and brought him to the king of Babylon: they brought him into holds, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.
10	Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
11	And she had strong rods for the scepters of them that bore rule, and her stature was exalted among the thick branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches.
12	But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods were broken and withered; the fire consumed them.
13	And now she is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground.
14	And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, which hath devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod to be a scepter to rule. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.

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.
