Psalms 19:6

Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!

For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,

Yahweh, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar; Yahweh of Armies is his name, says:

The Mighty One, God, Yahweh, speaks, and calls the earth from sunrise to sunset.

This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”

Without controversy, the mystery of godliness is great: God was revealed in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, and received up in glory.

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;

So they will fear Yahweh’s name from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which Yahweh’s breath drives.

For from the rising of the sun even to its going down, my name is great among the nations, and in every place incense will be offered to my name, and a pure offering: for my name is great among the nations,” says Yahweh of Armies.

Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under the sky.

But I say, didn’t they hear? Yes, most certainly, “Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”

but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”

God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.

and lest you lift up your eyes to the sky, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the army of the sky, you are drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which Yahweh your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole sky.

He makes the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the rooms of the south.

Let them praise Yahweh’s name, for he commanded, and they were created.

Many will entreat the favor of a ruler, and everyone is a friend to a man who gives gifts.

The sun also rises, and the sun goes down, and hurries to its place where it rises.

Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these, who brings out their army by number. He calls them all by name. by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power, not one is lacking.

He said to them, “Go into all the world, and preach the Good News to the whole creation.

You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into God’s Kingdom.

Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.

that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

For this cause I also, when I couldn’t stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor would have been in vain.

For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.

Don’t be afraid of the things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you will have oppression for ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.

They heard Yahweh God’s voice walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.

He stayed there that night, and took from that which he had with him a present for Esau, his brother:

“You shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds those who have sight and perverts the words of the righteous.

when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.

As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.

The day is yours, the night is also yours. You have prepared the light and the sun.

But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.

Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts. I will declare your greatness.

Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!

A wicked man receives a bribe in secret, to pervert the ways of justice.

A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men.

It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in,

Yahweh says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;

When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies therein; in his iniquity that he has done he shall die.

But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like calves of the stall.

Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

The Good News must first be preached to all the nations.

“The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.”

Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.

If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!”

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, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.

who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ,

because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News

which has come to you, even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth,

if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a servant.

of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you to fulfill the word of God,

rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.

who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Their father, Israel, said to them, “If it must be so, then do this: Take from the choice fruits of the land in your bags, and carry down a present for the man, a little balm, a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts, and almonds;

for the precious things of the fruits of the sun, for the precious things that the moon can yield,

So David received from her hand that which she had brought him. Then he said to her, “Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have listened to your voice, and have granted your request.”

He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he was seen on the wings of the wind.

Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he doesn’t see. He walks on the vault of the sky.’

Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?

He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud on it.

There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he soared on the wings of the wind.

He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.

Yahweh’s voice is powerful. Yahweh’s voice is full of majesty.

Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows when to set.

From the rising of the sun to its going down, Yahweh’s name is to be praised.

the sun to rule by day; for his loving kindness endures forever;

A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it; wherever he turns, he prospers.

From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs. Glory to the righteous! But I said, “I pine away! I pine away! woe is me!” The treacherous have dealt treacherously. Yes, the treacherous have dealt very treacherously.

Sing, heavens, and be joyful, earth! Break out into singing, mountains, for Yahweh has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his afflicted.

A fiery stream issued and came out from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered to him. Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The judgment was set. The books were opened.

Or do you think that I couldn’t ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels?

In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.

I saw, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. The number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;

The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!”

God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.

and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.
