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.

Genesis 16

1	Now Sarai Abram's wife bore him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
2	And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.
3	And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.
4	And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
5	And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee.
6	But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.
7	And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.
8	And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.
9	And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.
10	And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
11	And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
12	And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
13	And she called the name of the LORD that spoke unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me?
14	Wherefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15	And Hagar bore Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name, which Hagar bore, Ishmael.
16	And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.

Galatians 2

1	Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.
2	And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
3	But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
4	And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
5	To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
6	But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person: ) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:
7	But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;
8	(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles: )
9	And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
10	Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
11	But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
12	For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
13	And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
14	But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
15	We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
16	Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
17	But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
18	For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
19	For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
20	I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
21	I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Job 17

1	My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.
2	Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?
3	Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?
4	For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.
5	He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.
6	He hath made me also a byword of the people; and formerly I was as a tabret.
7	Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.
8	Upright men shall be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.
9	The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.
10	But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you.
11	My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.
12	They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.
13	If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.
14	I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
15	And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
16	They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.

Psalms 53

1	To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
2	God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3	Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4	Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
5	There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.
6	Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

Proverbs 17

1	Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than a house full of sacrifices with strife.
2	A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.
3	The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.
4	A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.
5	Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.
6	Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.
7	Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
8	A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.
9	He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.
10	A reproof entereth more into a wise man than a hundred stripes into a fool.
11	An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.
12	Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.
13	Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
14	The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.
15	He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.
16	Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?
17	A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
18	A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.
19	He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.
20	He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.
21	He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy.
22	A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
23	A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment.
24	Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.
25	A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bore him.
26	Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.
27	He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
28	Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

2 Chronicles 23

1	And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.
2	And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief of the fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3	And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said unto them, Behold, the king's son shall reign, as the LORD hath said of the sons of David.
4	This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you entering on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the doors;
5	And a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the LORD.
6	But let none come into the house of the LORD, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall go in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch of the LORD.
7	And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever else cometh into the house, he shall be put to death: but be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.
8	So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go out on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.
9	Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in the house of God.
10	And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about.
11	Then they brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king.
12	Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
13	And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of music, and such as taught to sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, Treason.
14	Then Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her forth of the ranges: and whoso followeth her, let him be slain with the sword. For the priest said, Slay her not in the house of the LORD.
15	So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the entering of the horse gate by the king's house, they slew her there.
16	And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be the LORD's people.
17	Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and broke it down, and broke his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18	Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the LORD by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the LORD, to offer the burnt offerings of the LORD, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as it was ordained by David.
19	And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the LORD, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.
20	And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of the LORD: and they came through the high gate into the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
21	And all the people of the land rejoiced: and the city was quiet, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.

Amos 3

1	Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
2	You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
3	Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
4	Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5	Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
6	Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
7	Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
8	The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
9	Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof, and the oppressed in the midst thereof.
10	For they know not to do right, saith the LORD, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
11	Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; An adversary there shall be even round about the land; and he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.
12	Thus saith the LORD; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
13	Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,
14	That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
15	And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the LORD.

Acts 7

1	Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
2	And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,
3	And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.
4	Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Haran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.
5	And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.
6	And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.
7	And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
8	And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.
9	And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
10	And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11	Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.
12	But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
13	And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.
14	Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.
15	So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
16	And were carried over into Shechem, and laid in the sepulcher that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem.
17	But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18	Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.
19	The same dealt subtlely with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.
20	In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:
21	And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
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 showed 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 neighbor wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
28	Wilt thou kill me, as thou didst the Egyptian yesterday?
29	Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons.
30	And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai 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 showed 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 Sinai, 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 Joshua into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
46	Who found favor before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47	But Solomon built him a 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 showed 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 steadfastly 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.
