Psalms 16:9

God said, “Let’s make man in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.

Therefore prophesy, and tell them, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.

I will ransom them from the power of Sheol. I will redeem them from death! Death, where are your plagues? Sheol, where is your destruction? “Compassion will be hidden from my eyes.

Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is.

He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”

So are the paths of all who forget God. The hope of the godless man will perish,

Don’t gather my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloodthirsty men;

He has swallowed up death forever! The Lord Yahweh will wipe away tears from off all faces. He will take the reproach of his people away from off all the earth, for Yahweh has spoken it.

For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.

And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have troubled me, to make me odious to the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. They will gather themselves together against me and strike me, and I will be destroyed, I and my house.”

I have waited for your salvation, Yahweh.

‘Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, utter a song! Arise, Barak, and lead away your captives, you son of Abinoam.’

“Yahweh kills and makes alive. He brings down to Sheol and brings up.

All the rich ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can’t keep his soul alive.

to the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever!

Wake up, my glory! Wake up, lute and harp! I will wake up the dawn.

After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

But Jesus answered them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

Then he began to curse and to swear, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately the rooster crowed.

The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;

Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,

We are courageous, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.

Whoever sheds man’s blood, his blood will be shed by man, for God made man in his own image.

My soul, don’t come into their council. My glory, don’t be united to their assembly; for in their anger they killed men. In their self-will they hamstrung cattle.

But the eyes of the wicked will fail. They will have no way to flee. Their hope will be the giving up of the spirit.”

Behold, he will kill me. I have no hope. Nevertheless, I will maintain my ways before him.

After my skin is destroyed, then I will see God in my flesh,

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,

Mark the perfect man, and see the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace.

As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together. The future of the wicked shall be cut off.

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy. I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.

My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,

Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;

You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!

The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.

My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.

Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet! Praise him with harp and lyre!

He will die for lack of instruction. In the greatness of his folly, he will go astray.

When a wicked man dies, hope perishes, and expectation of power comes to nothing.

The desire of the righteous is only good. The expectation of the wicked is wrath.

for a righteous man falls seven times and rises up again; but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.

for often your own heart knows that you yourself have likewise cursed others.

Awake, awake! Put on your strength, Zion. Put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city: for from now on the uncircumcised and the unclean will no more come into you.

Break out into joy! Sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for Yahweh has comforted his people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.

You will see it, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones will flourish like the tender grass. Yahweh’s hand will be known among his servants; and he will have indignation against his enemies.

When I tell the wicked, ‘You will surely die;’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; that wicked man will die in his iniquity; but I will require his blood at your hand.

I will be like the dew to Israel. He will blossom like the lily, and send down his roots like Lebanon.

Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.

For as yet they didn’t know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.

For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?

Now thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works.

The womb will forget him. The worm will feed sweetly on him. He will be no more remembered. Unrighteousness will be broken as a tree.

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

Hold them guilty, God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.

You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.

My heart is steadfast, God. I will sing and I will make music with my soul.

I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever.

The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish.

The wicked is brought down in his calamity, but in death, the righteous has a refuge.

Your dead shall live. My dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will cast out the departed spirits.

Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced. Moreover my flesh also will dwell in hope;

Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.

Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?

With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.

Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
