Luke 16

1	And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
2	And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
3	Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
4	I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
5	So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, how much owest thou unto my lord?
6	And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
7	Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.
8	And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.
9	And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
10	He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
11	If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
12	And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?
13	No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
14	And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
15	And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
16	The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
17	And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
18	Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.
19	There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20	And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21	And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
22	And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23	And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24	And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25	But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
26	And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
27	Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
28	For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29	Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30	And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
31	And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Exodus 10

1	And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might show these my signs before him:
2	And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.
3	And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
4	Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast:
5	And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:
6	And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
7	And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?
8	And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the LORD your God: but who are they that shall go?
9	And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto the LORD.
10	And he said unto them, Let the LORD be so with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you.
11	Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the LORD; for that ye did desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
12	And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.
13	And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14	And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
15	For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16	Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
17	Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat the LORD your God, that he may take away from me this death only.
18	And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.
19	And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt.
20	But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go.
21	And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.
22	And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:
23	They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24	And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.
25	And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God.
26	Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD, until we come thither.
27	But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
28	And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
29	And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more.

Philippians 3

1	Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.
2	Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
3	For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
4	Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:
5	Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
6	Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
7	But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
8	Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9	And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10	That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
11	If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
12	Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
13	Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14	I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15	Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
16	Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
17	Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an example.
18	(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
19	Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
20	For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ:
21	Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

Revelation 17

1	And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will show unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2	With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3	So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4	And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5	And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6	And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
7	And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8	The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9	And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10	And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11	And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12	And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13	These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14	These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15	And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16	And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17	For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18	And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

Song of Solomon 6

1	Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee.
2	My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3	I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies.
4	Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.
5	Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.
6	Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them.
7	As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks.
8	There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.
9	My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.
10	Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?
11	I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.
12	Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Ammi-nadib.
13	Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.

Psalms 60

1	To the chief Musician upon Shushan-eduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
2	Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
3	Thou hast showed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4	Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5	That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
6	God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7	Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8	Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
9	Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
10	Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?
11	Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
12	Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

Proverbs 29

1	He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
2	When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.
3	Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance.
4	The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
5	A man that flattereth his neighbor spreadeth a net for his feet.
6	In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice.
7	The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth not to know it.
8	Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.
9	If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest.
10	The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul.
11	A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.
12	If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked.
13	The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD lighteneth both their eyes.
14	The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be established forever.
15	The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
16	When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall.
17	Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
18	Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
19	A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer.
20	Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
21	He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.
22	An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
23	A man's pride shall bring him low: but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.
24	Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and betrayeth it not.
25	The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
26	Many seek the ruler's favor; but every man's judgment cometh from the LORD.
27	An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.

1 Samuel 11

1	Then Nahash the Ammonite came up, and encamped against Jabesh-gilead: and all the men of Jabesh said unto Nahash, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee.
2	And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may thrust out all your right eyes, and lay it for a reproach upon all Israel.
3	And the elders of Jabesh said unto him, Give us seven days' respite, that we may send messengers unto all the coasts of Israel: and then, if there be no man to save us, we will come out to thee.
4	Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
5	And, behold, Saul came after the herd out of the field; and Saul said, What aileth the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.
6	And the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly.
7	And he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coasts of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whosoever cometh not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his oxen. And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
8	And when he numbered them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
9	And they said unto the messengers that came, Thus shall ye say unto the men of Jabesh-gilead, Tomorrow, by that time the sun be hot, ye shall have help. And the messengers came and showed it to the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
10	Therefore the men of Jabesh said, Tomorrow we will come out unto you, and ye shall do with us all that seemeth good unto you.
11	And it was so on the morrow, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the host in the morning watch, and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that they which remained were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
12	And the people said unto Samuel, Who is he that said, Shall Saul reign over us? bring the men, that we may put them to death.
13	And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day: for today the LORD hath wrought salvation in Israel.
14	Then said Samuel to the people, Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.
15	And all the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.

Isaiah 60

1	Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2	For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3	And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
4	Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.
5	Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.
6	The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall show forth the praises of the LORD.
7	All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.
8	Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?
9	Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
10	And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favor have I had mercy on thee.
11	Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.
12	For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
13	The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
14	The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15	Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
16	Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Savior and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
17	For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thine exactors righteousness.
18	Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
19	The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
20	Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
21	Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
22	A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time.

Acts 4

1	And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
2	Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3	And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
4	Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
5	And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,
6	And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.
7	And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
8	Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9	If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
10	Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11	This is the stone which was set at naught of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12	Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
13	Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
14	And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15	But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16	saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.
17	But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
18	And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19	But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
20	For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
21	So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.
22	For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was showed.
23	And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.
24	And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
25	Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26	The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27	For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28	For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
29	And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
30	By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
31	And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
32	And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
33	And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
34	Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35	And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
36	And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,
37	Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
