6:1 Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and to them that are secure in the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!

6:4 that lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall; 6:5 that sing idle songs to the sound of the viol; that invent for themselves instruments of music, like David; 6:6 that drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief oils; but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph. 6:7 Therefore shall they now go captive with the first that go captive; and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away.

146:1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise Jehovah, O my soul. 146:2 While I live will I praise Jehovah: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. 146:3 Put not your trust in princes, Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. 146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; In that very day his thoughts perish. 146:5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in Jehovah his God: 146:6 Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that in them is; Who keepeth truth for ever; 146:7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed; Who giveth food to the hungry. Jehovah looseth the prisoners; 146:8 Jehovah openeth `the eyes of' the blind; Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous; 146:9 Jehovah preserveth the sojourners; He upholdeth the fatherless and widow; But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. 146:10 Jehovah will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye Jehovah.

16:19 I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 16:20 Then charged he the disciples that they should tell no man that he was the Christ. 16:21 From that time began Jesus to show unto his disciples, that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up. 16:22 And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall never be unto thee. 16:23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art a stumbling-block unto me: for thou mindest not the things of God, but the things of men. 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 16:25 For whosoever would save his life shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it. 16:26 For what shall a man be profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and forfeit his life? or what shall a man give in exchange for his life? 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then shall he render unto every man according to his deeds. 16:28 Verily I say unto you, there are some of them that stand here, who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain: 6:7 for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out; 6:8 but having food and covering we shall be therewith content. 6:9 But they that are minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown men in destruction and perdition. 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 6:12 Fight the good fight of the faith, lay hold on the life eternal, whereunto thou wast called, and didst confess the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. 6:13 I charge thee in the sight of God, who giveth life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed the good confession; 6:14 that thou keep the commandment, without spot, without reproach, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 6:15 which in its own times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 6:16 who only hath immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom `be' honor and power eternal. Amen. 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this present world, that they be not highminded, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; 6:18 that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate; 6:19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life which is `life' indeed.
