O Jehovah, I heard the report about you and I am afraid of your actions. O Jehovah, make it live in the midst of the years. In the midst of the years make it known! When you are angry remember mercy.

For the sake of your name, O Jehovah, revive me. In your righteousness bring me out of trouble.

Then we will never turn away from you. Give us life again, and we will call on your name.

I cleave to the dust. Revive me according to your word (as you promised).

Behold, I long for your precepts! Revive me through your righteousness.

Revive me according to your loving kindness, so I may keep the law of your mouth (you have spoken).

Hear my voice according to your loving kindness. Revive me, O Jehovah, according to your ordinances.





It is the spirit that gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I spoke to you are spirit and life. There are some of you who do not believe. Jesus knew from the beginning whom they were who did not believe and who would betray him.

Some have already turned aside after Satan.







All flesh would perish and man would return to dust.

A voice shouts: Cry out! And I said: What shall I cry? The voice shouts: All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field. The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of Jehovah blows on them. Surely the people are grass. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever.



Thanks to God, through our Lord Jesus Christ! So then I can serve God's law only with my mind, while my human nature serves the law of sin.

I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh. These are in opposition to one another that you may not do the things that you would. But if the Spirit leads you, you are not under the Law. read more.
Now the works of the flesh (sinful human nature) are apparent. They are: fornication, uncleanness, loose conduct, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, wrath, contentions, divisions, sects, envies, drunkenness, revelries, and things like these. I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that those who practice such things would not inherit the kingdom of God.


I am the living bread that came down out of heaven. If any man eats of this bread he will live forever. Yes and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world. The Jews argued with one another saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat? Jesus responded to them: Truly I tell you if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood you will not have life in yourselves. read more.
He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life! I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides with me, and I with him. The living Father sent me and I live because of the Father. He who takes me for his food will live because of me. This is the bread that came down out of heaven. It is not like the bread (manna) the fathers ate and then died. He who eats this bread will live forever. He said these things in the synagogue when he taught in Capernaum. When they heard this many of his disciples said: This is a hard saying; who can listen to it? He knew his disciples complained about this. Jesus said: Does this cause you to stumble? What if you see the Son of man ascending where he was before? It is the spirit that gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I spoke to you are spirit and life.





If the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from among the dead dwells with you, he who raised Christ from among the dead shall also make your mortal bodies alive. This is on account of his Spirit that dwells with you.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the cultivator. He takes away the branches in me that do not bear fruit. He cleans every branch that bears fruit. That way it may bear more fruit. You are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.

I know that you are Abraham's seed. Yet you seek to kill me. That is because my word has no place among you. I speak the things that I have seen and heard when I was with my Father. You also do the things that you heard from your father. They answered: Our father is Abraham. Jesus replied: If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham. read more.
You seek to kill me. I told you the truth! I heard it from God. Abraham did not do this. You do the works of your father. They said: We were not born of fornication. We have one Father, God! Jesus said: If God were your Father you would love me. I came from God! I have not come from myself. He sent me! Why do you not understand what I say? Can you not hear me? You are from your father [Satan] the Devil (slanderer) (false accuser)! You want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning. He does not stand for the truth. There is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks his own lies. He is a liar and the father of the lie! I tell you the truth and you do not believe me. Which of you convicted me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe me? He that is of God hears the words of God. That is why you do not listen. You are not from God!

Jesus cried out: He, who believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me. He that sees me sees (perceives) (discerns) (experiences) the one who sent me. I have come as a light to the world. Everyone who believes in me will not remain in darkness. read more.
If any man hears my sayings and does not obey them I will not judge him. I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejects me and does not accept my message has one that judges him. The word (divine expression) (God's Word) that I spoke shall judge him now and in the last day. (Deuteronomy 18:19)

Jesus proclaimed: I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through me. If you had known me, you would have perceived my Father also. From now on you understand him and have experienced him. Philip said: Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us. read more.
Jesus responded: Have I been with you so long a time and you do not know me Philip? He who has seen me has discerned (experienced) (perceived) the Father. And you say, show us the Father? Do you not believe that I am with the Father and that the Father is with me? The words I say to you are not from me, but the Father dwells with me and does his works. Believe me that I am with the Father and the Father is with me, or else believe me because of the works.


The next day the crowd stood by the side of the sea. Jesus entered the only boat while his disciples went away alone. Small boats from Tiberias came there to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord gave thanks. When the crowd saw that Jesus and his disciples were not there they got into the boats and traveled to Capernaum seeking Jesus. read more.
They found him on the other side of the sea and said: Rabbi (Teacher) when did you come here? Jesus said: Truly I tell you, you seek me not because you saw miracles but because you ate of the loaves and were full. Do not work for food that perishes but for food that offers everlasting life. The Son of man will give you this food. The Father, even God, has set his seal upon him. They asked: What must we do, that we may work the works of God? Jesus answered: This is the work of God, that you have an active faith in the one whom he has sent. They asked: What do you offer for a sign (miracle) that we may see and believe you? What work will you do? Our fathers ate manna in the wilderness. It is written, 'He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.' Jesus responded: I speak the truth! It was not Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven. My Father gives you the true bread out of heaven. For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven. It gives life to the world. They responded: Lord, always give us this bread. Jesus replied: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will not hunger. The one who puts active faith in me will never thirst. I told you. You have seen me and yet do not believe. That which the Father gives me will come to me. I will not reject him who comes to me. I do not do my own will. I came down from heaven to do the will of him that sent me. This is the will of him that sent me that I should not lose any of those he has given me, but I should raise them up at the last day. For this is the will of my Father. Every one who sees the Son and puts active faith in him will have everlasting life, and I will raise him up at the last day. The Jews complained about him. This is because he said 'I am the bread that came down out of heaven.' They said: Is Jesus the son of Joseph? We know his father and mother. How does he now say, I came down out of heaven? Jesus answered: Stop complaining and saying things against me. No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him. I will resurrect him (raise him up) in the last day. It is written in the prophets: Jehovah shall teach them all. Every one who hears the Father and has learned comes to me. (Jeremiah 31:34) No one has seen the Father. Only he who is from God, He has seen the Father. Truly, truly I tell you, he who believes has everlasting life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died. This is the bread that comes down out of heaven that a man may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread that came down out of heaven. If any man eats of this bread he will live forever. Yes and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world. The Jews argued with one another saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat? Jesus responded to them: Truly I tell you if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood you will not have life in yourselves. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life! I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides with me, and I with him. The living Father sent me and I live because of the Father. He who takes me for his food will live because of me. This is the bread that came down out of heaven. It is not like the bread (manna) the fathers ate and then died. He who eats this bread will live forever.

The flesh profits nothing. The words that I spoke to you are spirit and life. There are some of you who do not believe. Jesus knew from the beginning whom they were who did not believe and who would betray him. He stated: For this reason listen to what I say. No man can come to me, except it be given to him from the Father.


Take firm hold of instruction and do not let go. Obey her for she is your life.

When Moses finished speaking all these words to all Israel, he said to them: Take to your heart all the words with which I am warning you today. Command your sons to observe carefully all the words of this law. It is not an idle talk! Indeed it is your life. By this word you will prolong your days in the land you to possess on the other side of the Jordan.




What is an idol worth after the carver is done? It is merely a false god. Why trust a speechless image made by human hands from wood or metal? Woe to anyone who says to an idol of wood or stone get up! You can learn nothing from idols covered with silver or gold? They cannot breathe or talk.


Has any nation ever exchanged gods? Their gods are not really gods. Yet my people have exchanged their glory for something that does not help them.



All who make idols are nothing. The things they treasure are worthless. Those who would speak up for them are blind. They are shamefully ignorant. Who shapes a god and casts a useless and good for nothing idol.

But come here, you sons of the witch, you offspring of the adulterer and the prostitute! With whom are you effeminate (self-indulgent)? With whom do you open wide your mouth and offer your tongue? Are you not children of transgression, offspring of falsehood and deceit? Are you inflaming yourselves with gods under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks? read more.
Is your portion among the smooth stones of the stream? They indeed are your lot! Even to them you have poured a drink offering. You have offered a grain offering. Should this give me comfort? You placed your bed on a lofty and high mountain. Even there you went up to offer sacrifice. You ordained your memorial behind the doors and their posts. You revealed (uncovered) yourself to those other than me. You went to them. You enlarged your bed and made a covenant with them. You have loved their bed, where you saw their naked manhood. You went to the king with ointment and much perfume. You sent your messengers far off, and descended even to the grave. You are wearied because of the length of your trip. Yet you did not say: I give up. There is no hope. You have found the renewal of your strength. Therefore you were not grieved. Who frightened you? Who made you afraid, that you have lied and not remembered me? You did not take it to your heart. Is it not because I have held my peace from of old that you do not reverence (respect) me? I will declare your righteousness and your works, yet they will not profit you.

Jehovah is my strength and my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. Nations come to you from the most distant parts of the world and say: Our ancestors have inherited lies, worthless and unprofitable gods. Can people make gods for themselves? They are not really gods!

What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life? What should a man give in exchange for his life?





If the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from among the dead dwells with you, he who raised Christ from among the dead shall also make your mortal bodies alive. This is on account of his Spirit that dwells with you.





O Jehovah, I heard the report about you and I am afraid of your actions. O Jehovah, make it live in the midst of the years. In the midst of the years make it known! When you are angry remember mercy.

For the sake of your name, O Jehovah, revive me. In your righteousness bring me out of trouble.

Then we will never turn away from you. Give us life again, and we will call on your name.

I cleave to the dust. Revive me according to your word (as you promised).

Behold, I long for your precepts! Revive me through your righteousness.

Revive me according to your loving kindness, so I may keep the law of your mouth (you have spoken).
