PSALMS CHAPTER 118
1 O give
thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth
for ever.
2 Let
Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
3 Let
the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
4 Let
them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
5 I
called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a
large place.
6 The
LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
7 The
LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire
upon them that hate me.
8 It
is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
9 It
is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
14 The
LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
15 The
voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous:
the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
16 The
right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
17 I
shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
18 The
LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.
19 Open
to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise
the LORD:
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the
righteous shall enter.
21 I will praise thee: for thou hast
heard me, and art become my salvation.
22 The stone which the builders
refused is become the head stone of the corner.
23 This is the LORD'S doing; it is
marvellous in our eyes.
24 This is the day which the
LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save
now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
26
Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you
out of the house of the LORD.
27 God is
the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even
unto the horns of the altar.
28 Thou art
my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.
29 O give
thanks unto the LORD; for he is
good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 10
1 Moreover, brethren, I would
not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud,
and all passed through the sea;
2 And were all baptized unto
Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3 And did all eat the same
spiritual meat;
4 And did all drink the same
spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and
that Rock was Christ.
5 But with many of them God was
not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 ¶ Now these things were our examples, to the intent
we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were
some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose
up to play.
11 Now all these things happened
unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the
ends of the world are come.
12 Wherefore let him that
thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
13 There hath no temptation
taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will
not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the
temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved,
flee from idolatry.
15 I speak
as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the
communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the
communion of the body of Christ?
17 For we being many are one
bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not
they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
19 What say I then? that the
idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
20 But I say, that the
things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God:
and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of
the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table,
and of the table of devils.
26 For the earth is the
Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
27 If any of them that believe
not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set
before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
28 But if any man say unto you,
This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it,
and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness
thereof:
29 Conscience, I say, not thine
own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?
30
For if I by grace be a
partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
31
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of
God.
32
Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church
of God:
33
Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own
profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
LUKECHAPTER 6
1
And it came to pass on the second sabbath
after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples
plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their
hands.
2 And
certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to
do on the sabbath days?
3 And
Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was
an hungred, and they which were with him;
4 How he went into the house
of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were
with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
5 And
he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
6
And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue
and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.
7 And the scribes and
Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they
might find an accusation against him.
8 But he knew their
thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
9 Then said Jesus unto
them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do
good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
10 And
looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did
so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 And they
were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to
Jesus.
12 And it came to pass in those days, that he
went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and
from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed
of their diseases;
18 And they
that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 And the
whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and
healed them all.
20 And he
lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed
be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled.
Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall
separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast
out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is
great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your
consolation.
25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that
laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their
fathers to the false prophets.
28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use
you.
35 But love ye your enemies, and
do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great,
and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful
and to the evil.
36 Be ye
therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
37 Judge not,
and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned:
forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
38 Give, and it
shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and
running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye
mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
46 And why call ye me, Lord,
Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Whosoever
cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom
he is like:
48 He is like a
man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock:
and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could
not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49 But he that
heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house
upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately
it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
