And God saw every thing which he had made, and lo! it was very good. So it was evening - and it was morning, the sixth day.

For what great nation is there which hath gods nigh unto it, - like Yahweh our God, whensoever we have cried out unto him.

But, when ye shall pass over the Jordan, and settle down in the land which, Yahweh your God, is causing you to inherit, - and he shall give you rest from all your enemies round about, and ye shall dwell securely, then shall it be, that unto the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to make a habitation for his name there, thither, shall ye bring in all that I am commanding you, - your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices your tithes and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your chosen vow-offerings which ye shall vow unto Yahweh. read more.

Do not multiply words, so loftily - loftily, Nor let arrogance proceed from your mouth, - For, a GOD of knowledge, is Yahweh, And, for himself, are great doings made firm. The bow of the mighty, is dismayed, - While, the fainting, are girded with strength; The sated, have, for bread, taken hire, But, the famished, have left off their toil, - So that, the barren, hath given birth unto seven, While, she that hath many sons, languisheth: Yahweh, doth kill, and make alive, - Taketh down to hades, and bringeth up: Yahweh, maketh poor, and enricheth, - Layeth low, yea exalteth; Raiseth, from the dust, the poor, From the dunghill, uplifteth the needy, To give them a dwelling with nobles, And, a throne of glory, to make them inherit. For, to Yahweh, belong the pillars of the earth, And he setteth thereon the habitable world. The feet of his loving ones, he doth guard, But, the lawless, in darkness shall be silent, - For, by strength, shall no man prevail. As for Yahweh, - they shall be shattered who contend with him, Over him, in the heavens will he thunder, Yahweh, will judge the ends of the earth, - That he may give strength to his King, And exalt the horn of his Anointed One.

From men who are thy hand, O Yahweh, From the men of this age, whose portion, is among the living, and, with thy treasure, thou fillest their bosom, - They must be satisfied with sons, And must leave their abundance to their children: -

Yahweh, is my light and my salvation, Of whom shall I be afraid? Yahweh, is the refuge of my life, Of whom shall I be in dread? When there drew near against me evil-doers to devour my flesh, mine adversaries, and mine enemies - mine! - they, stumbled and fell! read more.

One thing, have I asked of Yahweh, That, will I seek to secure, - That I may dwell in the house of Yahweh, all the days of my life, To view the delightfulness of Yahweh, And to contemplate in his temple. For he will hide me in his pavilion, in the day of calamity, - He will conceal me, in the secrecy of his tent, Within a rock, will he set me on high. Now, therefore, shall my head be raised high above my foes round about me, and I will sacrifice in his tent the sacrifices of triumphant joy, I will sing and touch the strings, to Yahweh.

For, with thee, is the fountain of life, In thy light, we see light.

For lo! Kings - Met as appointed, Passed by together;

Do not cast me away from thy presence, And, thy Holy Spirit, do not take from me: Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, And, with a willing spirit, wilt thou uphold me: - I would teach transgressors thy ways, And, sinners, unto thee, should return. Rescue me from shed-blood, O God, the God of my salvation, My tongue should shout thy righteousness; O My Lord! my lips, wilt thou open, And, my mouth, shall declare thy praise. For thou wilt not desire sacrifice - that I should give it, Ascending-offering, will not please: The sacrifices of God, are a spirit that is broken, - A heart - broken and crushed, O God, thou wilt not despise.

O God, my GOD, thou art, Earnestly do I desire thee, - My soul thirsteth for thee, My flesh fainteth for thee, In a land - dry, and weary for want of water, -

Because better is thy lovingkindness than life, My lips, aloud shall praise thee! Thus, will I bless thee while I live, In thy Name, will I lift up mine outspread hands: read more.

God, is he that causeth the solitary to dwell in a home, That bringeth out prisoners into prosperity, But, the rebellious, have made their habitation in a sunburnt land.

Through whom also we have had, our introduction, by our faithinto this favour wherein we stand; and let us boast in hope of the glory of God. And, not only so, but let us boast also in our tribulations; knowing that, our tribulation, worketh out endurance. read more. And, our endurance, a testing, and, our testing, hope, And, our hope, putteth not to shame. Because, the love of God, hath been poured out in our hearts, through the Holy Spirit that hath been given unto us: Seeing that, Christ, we being weak as yet, seasonably, in behalf of such as were ungodly, died. For, scarcely in behalf of a righteous man, will one die, - in behalf of the good man indeed, peradventure one even dareth to die; But God commendeth his own love unto us in that - we as yet being sinners, Christ in our behalf died. Much more, then, having now been declared righteous by his blood, shall we be saved through him from the anger. For, if being enemies we were reconciled unto God through the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. And, not only, so, but are even boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, - through whom, now, the reconciliation we have received.

What, then, shall we say to a these things? If God is for us, who shall be against us? He, at least, who his own Son did not spare, but in behalf of us all delivered him up, how shall he not also, with him, all things upon us in favour bestow? read more. Who shall bring an accusation against the chosen ones of God? God, who declareth righteous? Who is he that condemneth? Christ Jesuswho died? - Nay! rather was raised from among the dead, - who is on the right hand of God, who also is making intercession in our behalf? Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? - According as it is written - For thy sake, are we being put to death all the day long, we have been reckoned as sheep for slaughter. - Nay, in all these things, we are more than conquering through him that hath loved us. For I am persuaded that - neither death nor life, nor messengers nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, Nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
