Amshir 10, 1738

1Give unto the LORD, O you mighty ones, Give unto the LORD glory and strength.

2Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name; Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

3The voice of the LORD is over the waters; The God of glory thunders; The LORD is over many waters.

4The voice of the LORD is powerful; The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

5The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars, Yes, the LORD splinters the cedars of Lebanon.

6He makes them also skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild ox.

7The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.

8The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; The LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.

9The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth, And strips the forests bare; And in His temple everyone says, "Glory!"

10The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood, And the LORD sits as King forever.

11The LORD will give strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace.

10immediately got into the boat with His disciples, and came to the region of Dalmanutha.

11Then the Pharisees came out and began to dispute with Him, seeking from Him a sign from heaven, testing Him.

12But He sighed deeply in His spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Assuredly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation."

13And He left them, and getting into the boat again, departed to the other side.

14Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, and they did not have more than one loaf with them in the boat.

15Then He charged them, saying, "Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod."

16And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "It is because we have no bread."

17But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, "Why do you reason because you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive nor understand? Is your heart still hardened?

18Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear? And do you not remember?

19When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did you take up?" They said to Him, "Twelve."

20"Also, when I broke the seven for the four thousand, how many large baskets full of fragments did you take up?" And they said, "Seven."

21So He said to them, "How is it you do not understand?"

4For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

5For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, "The man who does those things shall live by them."

6But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?"' (that is, to bring Christ down from above)

7or, ""Who will descend into the abyss?"' (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).

8But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach):

9that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

10For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

12For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

13For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

14How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

15And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"

16But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "LORD, who has believed our report?"

17So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

18But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed: "Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the ends of the world."

17For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.

18For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit,

19by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison,

20who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

21There is also an antitype which now saves us--baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

22who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
