- How can young people keep their way pure?
By guarding it according to your word. - The young lions suffer want and hunger,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - I have made a covenant with my eyes;
how then could I look upon a virgin? - Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel.
- Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
- May my teaching drop like the rain,
my speech condense like the dew;
like gentle rain on grass,
like showers on new growth. - Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will also fast as you do. After that I will go to the king, though it is against the law; and if I perish, I perish.
For what will it profit them to gain the whole world and forfeit their life? And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.Next verse!With image
