Restore, I pray you, unto them this very day, their fields, their vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, - also the hundredth of silver and corn, new wine and oil, for which ye have been lending to them. And they said, We will restore them, and, from them, will we require nothing, so, will we do, as thou, art saying. Then called I the priests, and put them on oath, to do according to this promise. Also, my lap, shook I out, and said - Thus and thus, may God shake out every man who shall not confirm this promise, out of his house and out of his labour, yea, thus and thus, let him be shaken out and empty, - And all the convocation said, Amen! and praised Yahweh, and the people did according to this promise. Moreover, from the day I was commanded to become their pasha in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year, even unto the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, I and my brethren, pasha's bread, have not eaten; whereas, the former pashas, who were before me, suffered themselves to be a burden upon the people, and took from them in bread and wine, besides forty shekels of silver, even, their young men, bare rule over the people, - but, I, did not so, because of the fear of God. Moreover also, in this work of the wall, I repaired, and, no field, did we buy, - though, all my young men, were gathered thither unto the work. And, Jews and deputies, a hundred and fifty men, and they who were coming in unto us from among the nations which were round about us, depended upon my table. Now, that which was prepared for a single day, was - one ox, six choice sheep, also, fowls, were prepared for me, and, apportioned unto ten days, of every sort of wine, in abundance, - yet, in spite of this, the bread of the pasha, demanded I not, because heavy was the bondage upon this people. Remember unto me, O my God, for good, - all that I have done for this people.

Beloved! I exhort you, as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly covetings, such as take the field against the soul; Having, your behaviour among the nations, honourable, - in order that, wherein they speak against you as evil-doers, they may, owing to the honourable works they are permitted to behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. Submit yourselves unto every human creation, for the Lord's sake, - whether unto a king, as one that protecteth, read more.
Or unto governors, as, through him, sent - for vengeance on evil-doers, but praise to such as do good; Because, so, is the will of God, - by doing good, to be putting to silence, the ignorance of heedless men: As free, yet, not as a cloak of vice, holding your freedom, but, as God's servants. Unto all men, give honour, unto the brotherhood, shew love, unto God, give reverence, the king, hold in honour. Ye domestics, submitting yourselves, in all reverence, unto your masters, - not only unto the good and considerate, but also unto the perverse; For, this, is thankworthy, - If, for the sake of conscience towards God, one beareth griefs, suffering wrongfully, - For what sort of honour is it - if, committing sin, and being buffeted, ye endure it? But, if, doing good, and suffering, ye endure it, this, is thankworthy with God. For, hereunto, have ye been called; because, Christ also, suffered in your behalf, unto you, leaving behind a pattern, that ye might follow in his steps: Who did not, a sin, commit, neither was deceit found in his mouth, - Who, being reviled, was not reviling again, suffering, he was not threatening, but was making surrender unto him that judgeth righteously, - Who, our sins, himself, bare up, in his body, unto the tree, in order that we, from our sins getting away, in righteousness, might live, - by whose stripes, ye have been healed; For ye were as sheep going astray, but have now turned back unto the shepherd and overseer of your souls.

For, so, at one time, the holy women also, who directed their hope towards God, used to adorn themselves, being in submission unto their own husbands: As, Sarah, was obedient unto Abraham, calling him, lord, - whose children ye have become - so long as ye are doing good, and not bringing yourselves into fear of any single cause of alarm.

But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and, for the flesh, take not forethought to fulfil its covetings. Verse Concepts
