Teach me to do thy will;
for thou art my God:
thy spirit is good;
lead me into the land of uprightness. For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Turn us again, O Lord God of hosts,
cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved. But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God,
The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace, good will toward men. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. For thou art my rock and my fortress;
therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. Wherefore thou art great, O Lord God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy,
and after vows to make enquiry. With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. O taste and see that the Lord is good:
blessed is the man that trusteth in him. And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him. Remove far from me vanity and lies:
give me neither poverty nor riches;
feed me with food convenient for me. And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear. Commit thy way unto the Lord;
trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light,
and thy judgment as the noonday. For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him,
to all that call upon him in truth. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you. A fool's wrath is presently known:
but a prudent man covereth shame. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification. He shall cover thee with his feathers,
and under his wings shalt thou trust:
his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts,
he is the King of glory. Selah.
