Deliver those who are being taken away to death,
And those who are staggering to slaughter, Oh hold them back.

Rescue the weak and needy;
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

“Is this not the fast which I choose,
To loosen the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the bands of the yoke,
And to let the oppressed go free
And break every yoke?

Then Abishai said to David, “Today God has delivered your enemy into your hand; now therefore, please let me strike him with the spear to the ground with one stroke, and I will not strike him the second time.”

“I broke the jaws of the wicked
And snatched the prey from his teeth.

And by chance a priest was going down on that road, and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

But they were insistent, with loud voices asking that He be crucified. And their voices began to prevail.

And they all took hold of Sosthenes, the leader of the synagogue, and began beating him in front of the judgment seat. But Gallio was not concerned about any of these things.

While they were seeking to kill him, a report came up to the commander of the Roman cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion.

And as a great dissension was developing, the commander was afraid Paul would be torn to pieces by them and ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks.

And he called to him two of the centurions and said, “Get two hundred soldiers ready by the third hour of the night to proceed to Caesarea, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen.”

We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
