Matthew 5:34

The Lord Yahweh’s Spirit is on me, because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound,

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.

But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.

Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.

Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

But will God in very deed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain you; how much less this house that I have built!

For though Yahweh is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but he knows the proud from afar.

But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear— not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.

Behold, to Yahweh your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein.

They lie down alike in the dust. The worm covers them.

The result of humility and the fear of Yahweh is wealth, honor, and life.

At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honored him who lives forever; for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom from generation to generation.

At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.

However, the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,

And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.

“You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God, for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.

“But will God indeed dwell with men on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain you; how much less this house which I have built!

In my distress I called on Yahweh, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.

Yahweh looks from heaven. He sees all the sons of men.

He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don’t let the rebellious rise up against him.

Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

I lift up my eyes to you, you who sit in the heavens.

Yahweh’s name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe.

Haven’t you known? Haven’t you heard? The everlasting God, Yahweh, the Creator of the ends of the earth, doesn’t faint. He isn’t weary. His understanding is unsearchable.

Yahweh says, “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build to me? Where will I rest?

“Ah Lord Yahweh! Behold, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you.

Tear your heart, and not your garments, and turn to Yahweh, your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.

But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.

He who swears by heaven, swears by the throne of God, and by him who sits on it.

God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse.

“Be angry, and don’t sin.” Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,

The eternal God is your dwelling place. Underneath are the everlasting arms. He thrust out the enemy from before you, and said, ‘Destroy!’

because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before Yahweh, when you heard what I spoke against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard you,’ says Yahweh.

Then David the king stood up on his feet, and said, “Hear me, my brothers, and my people! As for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of Yahweh’s covenant, and for the footstool of our God; and I had prepared for the building.

Yours, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty! For all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, Yahweh, and you are exalted as head above all.

Yahweh is in his holy temple. Yahweh is on his throne in heaven. His eyes observe. His eyes examine the children of men.

For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

that they may know that you alone, whose name is Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.

Before the mountains were born, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.

Your throne is established from long ago. You are from everlasting.

The heavens are Yahweh’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.

He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.

Surely he mocks the mockers, but he gives grace to the humble.

For the ways of man are before Yahweh’s eyes. He examines all his paths.

It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, than to divide the plunder with the proud.

But Yahweh is the true God. He is the living God, and an everlasting King. At his wrath, the earth trembles. The nations aren’t able to withstand his indignation.

“When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Yahweh. My prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.

Hear, you peoples, all of you. Listen, O earth, and all that is therein: and let the Lord Yahweh be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.

He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, “O Lord, you are God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them;

“Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to the living God, who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them;

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful.

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen.

So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;

He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in the darkness even until now.

Whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; your kingdom shall be sure to you, after that you will have known that the heavens do rule.

But I tell you that everyone who is angry with his brother without a cause will be in danger of the judgment. Whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ will be in danger of the council. Whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of Gehenna.

The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands.
