For I am against the putting away of a wife, says the Lord, the God of Israel, and against him who is clothed with violent acts, says the Lord of armies: so give thought to your spirit and do not be false in your acts.

Keep in mind the law of Moses, my servant, which I gave him in Horeb for all Israel, even the rules and the decisions.

You Beth-lehem, in the land of Judah, are not the least among the chiefs of Judah: out of you will come a ruler, who will be the keeper of my people Israel.

Saying, Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: because they who were attempting to take the young child's life are dead.

And he got up, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.

And when the evil spirit had been sent out, the man had the power of talking: and they were all surprised, saying, Such a thing has never been seen in Israel.

But go to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel,

But when they are cruel to you in one town, go in flight to another: for truly, I say to you, You will not have gone through the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.

But he made answer and said, I was sent only to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel.

So that the people were full of wonder when they saw that those who had no voice were talking, the feeble were made strong, those whose bodies were broken had the power of walking, and the blind were able to see: and they gave glory to the God of Israel.

And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that in the time when all things are made new, and the Son of man is seated in his glory, you who have come after me will be seated on twelve seats, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Then came true that which was said by Jeremiah the prophet, And they took the thirty bits of silver, the price of him who was valued by the children of Israel;

A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.

Jesus said in answer, The first is, Give ear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord;

Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.

And through him great numbers of the children of Israel will be turned to the Lord their God.

His help he has given to Israel, his servant, so that he might keep in mind his mercy to Abraham and his seed for ever,

Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has come to his people and made them free,

And the child became tall, and strong in spirit; and he was living in the waste land till the day when he came before the eyes of Israel.

And there was then in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon; and he was an upright man, fearing God and waiting for the comfort of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was on him.

A light of revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel.

And Simeon gave them his blessing and said to Mary, his mother, See, this child will be the cause of the downfall and the lifting up of great numbers of people in Israel, and he will be a sign against which hard words will be said;

Truly I say to you, There were a number of widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months and there was no food in the land;

And there were a number of lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and not one of them was made clean, but only Naaman the Syrian.

And when these things were said to Jesus, he was surprised, and, turning to the mass of people coming after him, said, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.

So that you may take food and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated like kings, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

But we were hoping that he would be the Saviour of Israel. In addition to all this he has now let three days go by from the time when these things took place;

I myself had no knowledge of him, but I came giving baptism with water so that he might be seen openly by Israel.

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and said of him, See, here is a true son of Israel in whom there is nothing false.

Nathanael said to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God, you are King of Israel!

And Jesus, answering, said, Are you the teacher of Israel and have no knowledge of these things?

Took branches of palm-trees and went out to him, crying, A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!

So, when they were together, they said to him, Lord, will you at this time give back the kingdom to Israel?

Men of Israel, give ear to these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man who had the approval of God, as was made clear to you by the great works and signs and wonders which God did by him among you, as you yourselves have knowledge,

For this reason, let all Israel be certain that this Jesus, whom you put to death on the cross, God has made Lord and Christ.

And when Peter saw it he said to the people, You men of Israel, why are you so greatly surprised at this man? or why are you looking at us as if by our power or virtue we had given him the use of his legs?

Take note, all of you, and all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you put to death on the cross, whom God gave back from the dead, even through him is this man now before you completely well.

For, truly, in this town, against your holy servant, Jesus, who was marked out by you as Christ, Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, came together,

And hearing this, they went into the Temple at dawn, and were teaching. But the high priest and those who were with him got together the Sanhedrin and the representatives of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to get them.

Him God has put on high at his right hand, as a Ruler and a Saviour, to give to Israel a change of heart and forgiveness of sins.

And he said to them, Men of Israel, take care what you do about these men.

And he made with him the agreement of which circumcision was the sign. And so Abraham had a son, Isaac, and gave him circumcision on the eighth day; and Isaac had a son, Jacob, and Jacob was the father of the twelve heads of the families of Israel.

But when he was almost forty years old, it came into his heart to go and see his brothers, the children of Israel.

This is the same Moses, who said to the children of Israel, God will give you a prophet from among your brothers, like me.

But God was turned from them and let them give worship to the stars of heaven, as it says in the book of the prophets, Did you make offerings to me of sheep and oxen for forty years in the waste land, O house of Israel?

But the Lord said, Go without fear: for he is a special vessel for me, to give to the Gentiles and kings and to the children of Israel the knowledge of my name:

The word which he sent to the children of Israel, giving the good news of peace through Jesus Christ (who is Lord of all)--

And Paul, getting up and making a sign with his hand, said, Men of Israel, and you who have the fear of God, give ear.

The God of this people Israel made selection of our fathers, lifting the people up from their low condition when they were living in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm took them out of it.

From this man's seed has God given to Israel a Saviour, even Jesus, as he gave his word;

For whose coming John made ready the way by preaching to all the people of Israel the baptism which goes with a change of heart.

Crying out, Men of Israel, come to our help: this is the man who is teaching all men everywhere against the people and the law and this place: and in addition, he has taken Greeks into the Temple, and made this holy place unclean.

But for this reason I sent for you, to see and have talk with you: for because of the hope of Israel I am in these chains.

But it is not as if the word of God was without effect. For they are not all Israel, who are of Israel:

And Isaiah says about Israel, Even if the number of the children of Israel is as the sand of the sea, only a small part will get salvation:

But Israel, going after a law of righteousness, did not get it.

But I say, Had Israel no knowledge? First Moses says, You will be moved to envy by that which is not a nation, and by a foolish people I will make you angry.

But about Israel he says; All the day my hands have been stretched out to a people whose hearts were turned away, and who put themselves against my word.

So I say, Has God put his people on one side? Let there be no such thought. For I am of Israel, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

God has not put away the people of his selection. Or have you no knowledge of what is said about Elijah in the holy Writings? how he says words to God against Israel,

What then? That which Israel was searching for he did not get, but those of the selection got it and the rest were made hard.

For it is my desire, brothers, that this secret may be clear to you, so that you may not have pride in your knowledge, that Israel has been made hard in part, till all the Gentiles have come in;

And so all Israel will get salvation: as it is said in the holy Writings, There will come out of Zion the One who makes free; by him wrongdoing will be taken away from Jacob:

See Israel after the flesh: do not those who take as food the offerings of the altar take a part in the altar?

For if the operation of the law, giving death, recorded in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the eyes of the children of Israel had to be turned away from the face of Moses because of its glory, a glory which was only for a time:

And are not like Moses, who put a veil on his face, so that the children of Israel might not see clearly to the end of the present order of things:

Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they of Israel? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.

And on all who are guided by this rule be peace and mercy, and on the Israel of God.

That you were at that time without Christ, being cut off from any part in Israel's rights as a nation, having no part in God's agreement, having no hope, and without God in the world.

Being given circumcision on the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in relation to the law, a Pharisee:

For, protesting against them, he says, See, the days are coming when I will make a new agreement with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah;

For this is the agreement which I will make with the people of Israel after those days: I will put my laws into their minds, writing them in their hearts: and I will be their God, and they will be my people:

By faith Joseph, when his end was near, said that the children of Israel would go out of Egypt; and gave orders about his bones.

But I have some things against you, because you have with you those who keep the teaching of Balaam, by whose suggestion Balak made the children of Israel go out of the right way, taking food which was offered to false gods, and going after the desires of the flesh.

And there came to my ears the number of those who had the mark on their brows, a hundred and forty-four thousand, who were marked out of every tribe of the people of Israel.

She had a wall great and high, with twelve doors, and at the doors twelve angels; and names on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
