Heaven is the seat of my power, and earth is a resting-place for my feet: what sort of house will you make for me, says the Lord, or what is my place of rest?

But Peter said, May your money come to destruction with you, because you had the idea that what is freely given by God may be got for a price.

And Philip, running up to him, saw that he was reading Isaiah the prophet, and said to him, Is the sense of what you are reading clear to you?

And the voice came to him a second time, What God has made clean, do not you make common.

And when they had come, he said to them, You yourselves have seen what my life has been like all the time from the day when I first came into Asia,

And now, as you see, I am going to Jerusalem, a prisoner in spirit, having no knowledge of what will come to me there:

You yourselves have seen that with these hands I got what was necessary for me and those who were with me.

Then Paul said, What are you doing, weeping and wounding my heart? for I am ready, not only to be a prisoner, but to be put to death at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
