Psalms 31:5

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

Don’t say, “I will pay back evil.” Wait for Yahweh, and he will save you.

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished.” He bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

“Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth.

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.

For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.

For what if some were without faith? Will their lack of faith nullify the faithfulness of God?

God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good?

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,

Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Know therefore that Yahweh your God himself is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with them who love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations,

“Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.

to show that Yahweh is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Know that Yahweh, he is God. It is he who has made us, and we are his. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

and you will swear, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ in truth, in justice, and in righteousness. The nations will bless themselves in him, and they will glory in him.”

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.

But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,

even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”

which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.

He who calls you is faithful, who will also do it.

I saw an angel flying in mid heaven, having an eternal Good News to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth, and to every nation, tribe, language, and people.

For you are a holy people to Yahweh your God. Yahweh your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

Of the Rock who became your father, you are unmindful, and have forgotten God who gave you birth.

As for God, his way is perfect. Yahweh’s word is tested. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?

for you will forget your misery. You will remember it like waters that have passed away.

For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.

As for God, his way is perfect. Yahweh’s word is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,

Yahweh is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him.

For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.

for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,

who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,

that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days,” says the Lord; “I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.

After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could count, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

Yahweh said to Moses, “Has Yahweh’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”

the waters which came down from above stood, and rose up in one heap a great way off, at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those that went down toward the sea of the Arabah, even the Salt Sea, were wholly cut off. Then the people passed over near Jericho.

Also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent; for he is not a man, that he should repent.”

Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy!

He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in Yahweh.

My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?

For you have delivered my soul from death, and prevented my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.

You will guide me with your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.

You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?

For Yahweh is good. His loving kindness endures forever, his faithfulness to all generations.

Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Let him make peace with me.”

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.

He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth. As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he didn’t open his mouth.

For the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy, says: “I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.

Behold, Yahweh’s hand is not shortened, that it can’t save; nor his ear dull, that it can’t hear.

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.

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.

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven; for all his works are truth, and his ways justice; and those who walk in pride he is able to abase.

Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the fierceness of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken apart by him.

But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

From now on, the crown of righteousness is stored up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,

This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;

For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don’t grow weary, fainting in your souls.

“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed, and were created!”

From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations, people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.

The Rock: his work is perfect, for all his ways are just. A God of faithfulness who does no wrong, just and right is he.

so that he who blesses himself in the earth will bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth will swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.

But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me.

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

who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.

Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.

the angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. Let them grow into a multitude upon the earth.”

after he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brothers may redeem him;

Yahweh redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.

Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.

Let the redeemed by Yahweh say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.

For all this I laid to my heart, even to explore all this: that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hatred, man doesn’t know it; all is before them.

Why, when I came, was there no one? When I called, why was there no one to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it can’t redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea. I make the rivers a wilderness. Their fish stink because there is no water, and die of thirst.

I give eternal life to them. They will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.

For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that day.

If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”

in hope of eternal life, which God, who can’t lie, promised before time began;

that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us.

They sang a new song, saying, “You are worthy to take the book and to open its seals: for you were killed, and bought us for God with your blood out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,
