- And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak? 1 Ki. 17:29
- And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth. 1 Ki. 17:33

- This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 1 Ki. 17:46
- And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands. 1 Ki. 17:47
- Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner, the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not. 1 Ki. 17:55
- And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this young man is. 1 Ki. 17:56
- And David said to Saul: Who am I, or what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in law of the king? 1 Ki. 18:18
- And he put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought great salvation for all Israel. Thou sawest it and didst rejoice. Why therefore wilt thou sin against innocent blood, by killing David, who is without fault? 1 Ki. 19:5
- And it was told Saul by some, saying: Behold David is in Najoth, in Ramatha. 1 Ki. 19:19
- Went also himself to Ramatha, and came as far as the great cistern, which is in Socho, and he asked, and said: In what place are Samuel and David? And it was told him: Behold they are in Najoth, in Ramatha. 1 Ki. 19:22
- And he stripped himself also of his garments, and prophesied with the rest before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and night. This gave occasion to a proverb: What! is Saul too among the prophets? 1 Ki. 19:24
- ¤ But David fled from Najoth, which is in Ramatha, and came and said to Jonathan: What have I done? what is my iniquity, and what is my sin against thy father, that he seeketh my life? 1 Ki. 20:1
- And he swore again to David. And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death. 1 Ki. 20:3
- And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I, according to custom, am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day. 1 Ki. 20:5
- If he shall say: It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height. 1 Ki. 20:7
- And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee. 1 Ki. 20:9
- And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed: 1 Ki. 20:18
- For thy seat will be empty till after to morrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou must be hid, on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel. 1 Ki. 20:19
- If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away. 1 Ki. 20:22
- And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table. 1 Ki. 20:29
- Then Saul being angry against Jonathan, said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion, and to the confusion of thy shameless mother? 1 Ki. 20:30
- For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death. 1 Ki. 20:31
- The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee. 1 Ki. 20:37
- And David answered the priest, and said to him: Truly, as to what concerneth women, we have refrained ourselves from yesterday and the day before, when we came out, and the vessels of the young men were holy. Now this way is defiled, but it shall also be sanctified this day in the vessels. 1 Ki. 21:5
- And the priest said: Lo, here is the sword of Goliath, the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Terebinth, wrapped up in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take this, take it, for here there is no other but this. And David said: There is none like that, give it me. 1 Ki. 21:9

- That all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one to inform me, especially when even my son hath entered into league with the son of Isai? There is not one of you that pitieth my case, nor that giveth me any information: because my son hath raised up my servant against me, plotting against me to this day. 1 Ki. 22:8

- Moreover, see and know, O my father, the hem of thy robe in my hand, that when I cut off the hem of thy robe, I would not put out my hand against thee.

- Better is a handful with rest, than both hands full with labour, and vexation of mind. Eccl. 4:6
- There is but one, and he hath not a second, no child, no brother, and yet he ceaseth not to labour, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches, neither doth he reflect, saying: For whom do I labour, and defraud my soul of good things? in this also is vanity, and a grievous vexation. Eccl. 4:8
- It is better therefore that two should be together, than one: for they have the advantage of their society: Eccl. 4:9
- If one fall he shall be supported by the other: woe to him that is alone, for when he falleth, he hath none to lift him up. Eccl. 4:10
- And if a man prevail against one, two shall withstand him: a threefold cord is not easily broken. Eccl. 4:12
- Better is a child that is poor and wise, than a king that is old and foolish, who knoweth not to foresee for hereafter. Eccl. 4:13
- Because out of prison and chains sometimes a man cometh forth to a kingdom: and another born king is consumed with poverty. Eccl. 4:14
- The number of the people, of all that were before him is infinite: and they that shall come afterwards, shall not rejoice in him: but this also is vanity, and vexation of spirit. Eccl. 4:16
- ¤ Keep thy foot, when thou goest into the house of God, and draw nigh to hear. For much better is obedience, than the victims of fools, who know not what evil they do. Eccl. 5:1
- Speak not any thing rashly, and let not thy heart be hasty to utter a word before God. For God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. Eccl. 5:2
- And it is much better not to vow, than after a vow not to perform the things promised. Eccl. 5:5
- Give not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin: and say not before the angel: There is no providence: lest God be angry at thy words, and destroy all the works of thy hands. Eccl. 5:6
- If thou shalt see the oppressions of the poor, and violent judgments, and justice perverted in the province, wonder not at this matter: for he that is high hath another higher, and there are others still higher than these: Eccl. 5:8
- Moreover there is the king that reigneth over all the land subject to him. Eccl. 5:9
- A covetous man shall not be satisfied with money: and he that loveth riches shall reap no fruit from them: so this also is vanity. Eccl. 5:10
- Sleep is sweet to a labouring man, whether he eat little or much: but the fulness of the rich will not suffer him to sleep. Eccl. 5:12
- There is also another grievous evil, which I have seen under the sun: riches kept to the hurt of the owner. Eccl. 5:13
- This therefore hath seemed good to me, that a man should eat and drink, and enjoy the fruit of his labour, wherewith he hath laboured under the sun, all the days of his life, which God hath given him: and this is his portion. Eccl. 5:18
- And every man to whom God hath given riches, and substance, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to enjoy his portion, and to rejoice of his labour: this is the gift of God. Eccl. 5:19
- ¤ There is also another evil, which I have seen under the sun, and that frequent among men: Eccl. 6:1
- A man to whom God hath given riches, and substance, and honour, and his soul wanteth nothing of all that he desireth: yet God doth not give him power to eat thereof, but a stranger shall eat it up. This is vanity and a great misery. Eccl. 6:2
- If a man beget a hundred children, and live many years, and attain to a great age, and his soul make no use of the goods of his substance, and he be without burial: of this man I pronounce, that the untimely born is better than he. Eccl. 6:3
- All the labour of man is for his mouth, but his soul shall not be filled. Eccl. 6:7
- What hath the wise man more than the fool? and what the poor man, but to go thither, where there is life? Eccl. 6:8
- Better it is to see what thou mayst desire, than to desire that which thou canst not know. But this also is vanity, and presumption of spirit. Eccl. 6:9
- He that shall be, his name is already called: and it is known, that he is man, and cannot contend in judgment with him that is stronger than himself. Eccl. 6:10
- What needeth a man to seek things that are above him, whereas he knoweth not what is profitable for him in his life, in all the days of his pilgrimage, and the time that passeth like a shadow? Or who can tell him what shall be after him under the sun? Eccl. 6:12
- ¤ A good name is better than precious ointments: and the day of death than the day of one's birth. Eccl. 7:1
- It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to the house of feasting: for in that we are put in mind of the end of all, and the living thinketh what is to come. Eccl. 7:2
- Anger is better than laughter: because by the sadness of the countenance the mind of the offender is corrected. Eccl. 7:3
- The heart of the wise is where there is mourning, and the heart of fools where there is mirth. Eccl. 7:4
- It is better to be rebuked by a wise man, than to be deceived by the flattery of fools. Eccl. 7:5
- For as the crackling of thorns burning under a pot, so is the laughter of a fool: now this also is vanity. Eccl. 7:6
- Better is the end of a speech than the beginning. Better is the patient man than the presumptuous. Eccl. 7:8
- Say not: What thinkest thou is the cause that former times were better than they are now? for this manner of question is foolish. Eccl. 7:10
- Wisdom with riches is more profitable, and bringeth more advantage to them that see the sun. Eccl. 7:11
- For as wisdom is a defence, so money is a defence: but learning and wisdom excel in this, that they give life to him that possesseth them. Eccl. 7:12
- Be not over just: and be not more wise than is necessary, lest thou become stupid. Eccl. 7:16
- It is good that thou shouldst hold up the just, yea and from him withdraw not thy hand: for he that feareth God, neglecteth nothing. Eccl. 7:18
- For there is no just man upon earth, that doth good, and sinneth not. Eccl. 7:20
- Much more than it was: it is a great depth, who shall find it out? Eccl. 7:24
- And I have found a woman more bitter than death, who is the hunter's snare, and her heart is a net, and her hands are bands. He that pleaseth God shall escape from her: but he that is a sinner, shall be caught by her. Eccl. 7:26
- Only this I have found, that God made man right, and he hath entangled himself with an infinity of questions. Who is as the wise man? and who hath known the resolution of the word? Eccl. 7:29
- And his word is full of power: neither can any man say to him: Why dost thou so? Eccl. 8:4
- There is a time and opportunity for every business, and great affliction for man: Eccl. 8:6
- Because he is ignorant of things past, and things to come he cannot know by any messenger. Eccl. 8:7
- It is not in man's power to stop the spirit, neither hath he power in the day of death, neither is he suffered to rest when war is at hand, neither shall wickedness save the wicked. Eccl. 8:8
- I saw the wicked buried: who also when they were yet living were in the holy place, and were praised in the city as men of just works: but this also is vanity. Eccl. 8:10
- For because sentence is not speedily pronounced against the evil, the children of men commit evils without any fear. Eccl. 8:11
- There is also another vanity, which is done upon the earth. There are just men to whom evils happen, as though they had done the works of the wicked: and there are wicked men, who are as secure as though they had the deeds of the just: but this also I judge most vain. Eccl. 8:14
- And I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to understand the distraction that is upon earth: for there are some that day and night take no sleep with their eyes. Eccl. 8:16
- But all things are kept uncertain for the time to come, because all things equally happen to the just and to the wicked, to the good and to the evil, to the clean and to the unclean, to him that offereth victims, and to him that despiseth sacrifices. As the good is, so also is the sinner: as the perjured, so he also that sweareth truth. Eccl. 9:2
- This is a very great evil among all things that are done under the sun, that the same things happen to all men: whereby also the hearts of the children of men are filled with evil, and with contempt while they live, and afterwards they shall be brought down to hell. Eccl. 9:3
- There is no man that liveth always, or that hopeth for this: a living dog is better than a dead lion. Eccl. 9:4
- For the living know that they shall die, but the dead know nothing more, neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten. Eccl. 9:5
- Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy are all perished, neither have they any part in this world, and in the work that is done under the sun. Eccl. 9:6
- Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest, all the days of thy unsteady life, which are given to thee under the sun, all the time of thy vanity: for this is thy portion in life, and in thy labour wherewith thou labourest under the sun. Eccl. 9:9
- Whatsoever thy hand is able to do, do it earnestly: for neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge shall be in hell, whither thou art hastening. Eccl. 9:10
- I turned me to another thing, and I saw that under the sun, the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the learned, nor favour to the skilful: but time and chance in all. Eccl. 9:11
- And I said that wisdom is better than strength: how then is the wisdom of the poor man slighted, and his words not heard? Eccl. 9:16
- Better is wisdom, than weapons of war: and he that shall offend in one, shall lose many good things. Eccl. 9:18
- ¤ Dying flies spoil the sweetness of the ointment. Wisdom and glory is more precious than a small and shortlived folly. Eccl. 10:1
- The heart of a wise man is in his right hand, and the heart of a fool is in his left hand. Eccl. 10:2
- Yea, and the fool when he walketh in the way, whereas he himself is a fool, esteemeth all men fools. Eccl. 10:3
- There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, as it were by an error proceeding from the face of the prince: Eccl. 10:5
- If a serpent bite in silence, he is nothing better that backbiteth secretly. Eccl. 10:11
- The beginning of his words is folly, and the end of his talk is a mischievous error. Eccl. 10:13
- Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and when the princes eat in the morning. Eccl. 10:16
- Blessed is the land, whose king is noble, and whose princes eat in due season for refreshment, and not for riotousness. Eccl. 10:17
- As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones are joined together in the womb of her that is with child: so thou knowest not the works of God, who is the maker of all. Eccl. 11:5
- The light is sweet, and it is delightful for the eyes to see the sun. Eccl. 11:7
- Rejoice therefore, O young man, in thy youth, and let thy heart be in that which is good in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thy eyes: and know that for all these God will bring thee into judgment. Eccl. 11:9
- More than these, my son, require not. Of making many books there is no end: and much study is an affliction of the flesh. Eccl. 12:12
- Let us all hear together the conclusion of the discourse. Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is all man: Eccl. 12:13
- Smelling sweet of the best ointments. Thy name is as oil poured out: therefore young maidens have loved thee. Cant. 1:3
- A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me, he shall abide between my breasts. Cant. 1:13
- A cluster of cypress my love is to me, in the vineyards of Engaddi. Cant. 1:14
- Behold thou art fair, my beloved, and comely. Our bed is flourishing. Cant. 1:16
- As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters. Cant. 2:2
- As the apple tree among the trees of the woods, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow, whom I desired: and his fruit was sweet to my palate. Cant. 2:3
- His left hand is under my head, and his right hand shall embrace me. Cant. 2:6
- My beloved is like a roe, or a young hart. Behold he standeth behind our wall, looking through the windows, looking through the lattices. Cant. 2:9
- For winter is now past, the rain is over and gone. Cant. 2:11
- The flowers have appeared in our land, the time of pruning is come: the voice of the turtle is heard in our land: Cant. 2:12
- My dove in the clefts of the rock, in the hollow places of the wall, shew me thy face, let thy voice sound in my ears: for thy voice is sweet, and thy face comely. Cant. 2:14
- Who is she that goeth up by the desert, as a pillar of smoke of aromatical spices, of myrrh, and frankincense, and of all the powders of the perfumer? Cant. 3:6
- ¤ How beautiful art thou, my love, how beautiful art thou! thy eyes are doves' eyes, besides what is hid within. Thy hair is as flocks of goats, which come up from mount Galaad. Cant. 4:1
- Thy teeth as flocks of sheep, that are shorn, which come up from the washing, all with twins, and there is none barren among them. Cant. 4:2
- Thy neck, is as the tower of David, which is built with bulwarks: a thousand bucklers hang upon it, all the armour of valiant men. Cant. 4:4
- Thou art all fair, O my love, and there is not a spot in thee. Cant. 4:7
- My sister, my spouse, is a garden enclosed, a garden enclosed, a fountain sealed up. Cant. 4:12
- I sleep, and my heart watcheth: the voice of my beloved knocking: Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is full of dew, and my locks of the drops of the nights. Cant. 5:2
- What manner of one is thy beloved of the beloved, O thou most beautiful among women? what manner of one is thy beloved of the beloved, that thou hast so adjured us? Cant. 5:9
- My beloved is white and ruddy, chosen out of thousands. Cant. 5:10
- His head is as the finest gold: his locks as branches of palm trees, black as a raven. Cant. 5:11
- His throat most sweet, and he is all lovely: such is my beloved, and he is my friend, O ye daughters of Jerusalem. Cant. 5:16
- ¤ Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou most beautiful among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside, and we will seek him with thee? Cant. 6:1
- My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the bed of aromatical spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies. Cant. 6:2
- Turn away thy eyes from me, for they have made me flee away. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from Galaad. Cant. 6:5
- Thy teeth as a flock of sheep, which come up from the washing, all with twins, and there is none barren among them. Cant. 6:6
- Thy cheeks are as the bark of a pomegranate, beside what is hidden within thee. Cant. 6:7
- One is my dove, my perfect one is but one, she is the only one of her mother, the chosen of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and declared her most blessed: the queens and concubines, and they praised her. Cant. 6:9
- Who is she that cometh forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in array? Cant. 6:10
- Thy navel is like a round bowl never wanting cups. Thy belly is like a heap of wheat, set about with lilies. Cant. 7:2
- Thy neck as a tower of ivory. Thy eyes like the fishpools in Hesebon, which are in the gate of the daughter of the multitude. Thy nose is as the tower of Libanus, that looketh toward Damascus. Cant. 7:4
- Thy head is like Carmel: and the hairs of thy head as the purple of the king bound in the channels. Cant. 7:5
- Thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes. Cant. 7:7
- I to my beloved, and his turning is towards me. Cant. 7:10
- Who is this that cometh up from the desert, flowing with delights, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I raised thee up: there thy mother was corrupted, there she was defloured that bore thee. Cant. 8:5
- Put me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thy arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy as hard as hell, the lamps thereof are fire and flames. Cant. 8:6
- Our sister is little, and hath no breasts. What shall we do to our sister in the day when she is to be spoken to? Cant. 8:8
- My vineyard is before me. A thousand are for thee, the peaceable, and two hundred for them that keep the fruit thereof. Cant. 8:12
- For he is found by them that tempt him not: and he sheweth himself to them that have faith in him. Wis. 1:2
- For perverse thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise: Wis. 1:3
- For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not acquit the evil speaker from his lips: for God is witness of his reins, and he is a true searcher of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue. Wis. 1:6
- For he created all things that they might be: and he made the nations of the earth for health: and there is no poison of destruction in them, nor kingdom of hell upon the earth. Wis. 1:14
- For justice is perpetual and immortal. Wis. 1:15
- ¤ For they have said, reasoning with themselves, but not right: The time of our life is short and tedious, and in the end of a man there is no remedy, and no man hath been known to have returned from hell: Wis. 2:1
- For we are born of nothing, and after this we shall be as if we had not been: for the breath in our nostrils is smoke: and speech a spark to move our heart, Wis. 2:2
- Which being put out, our body shall be ashes, and our spirit shall be poured abroad as soft air, and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist, which is driven away by the beams of the sun, and overpowered with the heat thereof: Wis. 2:3
- For our time is as the passing of a shadow, and there is no going back of our end: for it is fast sealed, and no man returneth: Wis. 2:5
- Let none of us go without his part in luxury: let us every where leave tokens of joy: for this is our portion, and this our lot. Wis. 2:9
- But let our strength be the law of justice: for that which is feeble is found to be nothing worth. Wis. 2:11
- Let us, therefore, lie in wait for the just, because he is not for our turn, and he is contrary to our doings, and upbraideth us with transgressions of the law, and divulgeth against us the sins of our way of life. Wis. 2:12
- He is become a censurer of our thoughts. Wis. 2:14
- He is grievous unto us, even to behold: for his life is not like other men's, and his ways are very different. Wis. 2:15
- And though in the sight of men they suffered torments, their hope is full of immortality. Wis. 3:4
- For he that rejecteth wisdom, and discipline, is unhappy: and their hope is vain, and their labours without fruit, and their works unprofitable. Wis. 3:11
- Their offspring is cursed, for happy is the barren: and the undefiled, that hath not known bed in sin, she shall have fruit in the visitation of holy souls. Wis. 3:13
- For the fruit of good labours is glorious, and the root of wisdom never faileth. Wis. 3:15
- ¤ O How beautiful is the chaste generation with glory: for the memory thereof is immortal: because it is known both with God and with men. Wis. 4:1
- When it is present, they imitate it: and they desire it, when it hath withdrawn itself, and it triumpheth crowned for ever, winning the reward of undefiled conflicts. Wis. 4:2
- For venerable old age is not that of long time, nor counted by the number of years: but the understanding of a man is grey hairs. Wis. 4:8
- And a spotless life is old age. Wis. 4:9
- That the grace of God, and his mercy is with his saints, and that he hath respect to his chosen. Wis. 4:15
- But the just that is dead, condemneth the wicked that are living, and youth soon ended, the long life of the unjust. Wis. 4:16
- Behold, how they are numbered among the children of God, and their lot is among the saints. Wis. 5:5
- And as a ship, that passeth through the waves: whereof when it is gone by, the trace cannot be found, nor the path of its keel in the waters: Wis. 5:10
- Or as when a bird flieth through the air, of the passage of which no mark can be found, but only the sound of the wings beating the light air, and parting it by the force of her flight: she moved her wings, and hath flown through, and there is no mark found afterwards of her way: Wis. 5:11
- Or as when an arrow is shot at a mark, the divided air quickly cometh together again, so that the passage thereof is not known: Wis. 5:12
- For the hope of the wicked is as dust, which is blown away with the wind, and as a thin froth which is dispersed by the storm: and a smoke that is scattered abroad by the wind: and as the remembrance of a guest of one day that passeth by. Wis. 5:15
- But the just shall live for evermore: and their reward is with the Lord, and the care of them with the most High. Wis. 5:16
- ¤ Wisdom is better than strength: and a wise man is better than a strong man. Wis. 6:1
- For power is given you by the Lord, and strength by the most High, who will examine your works: and search out your thoughts: Wis. 6:4
- For to him that is little, mercy is granted: but the mighty shall be mightily tormented. Wis. 6:7
- But a greater punishment is ready for the more mighty. Wis. 6:9
- Wisdom is glorious, and never fadeth away, and is easily seen by them that love her, and is found by them that seek her. Wis. 6:13
- To think, therefore, upon her, is perfect understanding: and he that watcheth for her, shall quickly be secure. Wis. 6:16
- For the beginning of her is the most true desire of discipline. Wis. 6:18
- And the care of discipline is love: and love is the keeping of her laws: and the keeping of her laws is the firm foundation of incorruption: Wis. 6:19
- Now what wisdom is, and what was her origin, I will declare: and I will not hide from you the mysteries of God, but will seek her out from the beginning of her birth, and bring the knowledge of her to light, and will not pass over the truth: Wis. 6:24
- Now the multitude of the wise is the welfare of the whole world: and a wise king is the upholding of the people. Wis. 6:26
- And being born, I drew in the common air, and fell upon the earth, that is made alike, and the first voice which I uttered was crying, as all others do. Wis. 7:3
- Neither did I compare unto her any precious stone: for all gold, in comparison of her, is as a little sand; and silver, in respect to her, shall be counted as clay. Wis. 7:9
- For she is an infinite treasure to men: which they that use, become the friends of God, being commended for the gift of discipline. Wis. 7:14
- And God hath given to me to speak as I would, and to conceive thoughts worthy of those things that are given me: because he is the guide of wisdom, and the director of the wise: Wis. 7:15
- And all such things as are hid, and not foreseen, I have learned: for wisdom, which is the worker of all things, taught me. Wis. 7:21
- For in her is the spirit of understanding; holy, one, manifold, subtile, eloquent, active, undefiled, sure, sweet, loving that which is good, quick, which nothing hindereth, beneficent, Wis. 7:22
- For wisdom is more active than all active things; and reacheth everywhere, by reason of her purity. Wis. 7:24
- For she is a vapour of the power of God, and a certain pure emmanation of the glory of the Almighty God: and therefore no defiled thing cometh into her. Wis. 7:25
- For she is the brightness of eternal light, and the unspotted mirror of God's majesty, and the image of his goodness. Wis. 7:26
- For she is more beautiful than the sun, and above all the order of the stars: being compared with the light, she is found before it. Wis. 7:29
- For it is she that teacheth the knowledge of God and is the chooser of his works. Wis. 8:4
- And if riches be desired in life, what is richer than wisdom, which maketh all things? Wis. 8:5
- And if sense do work: who is a more artful worker than she of those things that are? Wis. 8:6
- Thinking these things with myself, and pondering them in my heart, that to be allied to wisdom is immortality, Wis. 8:17
- And that there is great delight in her friendship, and inexhaustible riches in the works of her hands, and in the exercise of conference with her, wisdom, and glory in the communication of her words: I went about seeking, that I might take her to myself. Wis. 8:18
- Send her out of thy holy heaven, and from the throne of thy majesty, that she may be with me, and may labour with me, that I may know what is acceptable with thee: Wis. 9:10
- For who among men is he that can know the counsel of God? or who can think what the will of God is? Wis. 9:13
- For the corruptible body is a load upon the soul, and the earthly habitation presseth down the mind that museth upon many things. Wis. 9:15
- Whose land, for a testimony of their wickedness, is desolate, and smoketh to this day, and the trees bear fruits that ripen not, and a standing pillar of salt is a monument of an incredulous soul. Wis. 10:7
- She kept him safe from his enemies, and she defended him from seducers, and gave him a strong conflict, that he might overcome, and know that wisdom is mightier than all. Wis. 10:12
- That they might know that by what things a man sinneth, by the same also he is tormented. Wis. 11:17
- For the whole world before thee is as the least grain of the balance, and as a drop of the morning dew, that falleth down upon the earth. Wis. 11:23
- ¤ O how good and sweet is thy Spirit, O Lord, in all things! Wis. 12:1
- That the land which of all is most dear to thee, might receive a worthy colony of the children of God. Wis. 12:7
- For there is no other God but thou, who hast care of all, that thou shouldst shew that thou dost not give judgment unjustly. Wis. 12:13
- For thy power is the beginning of justice: and because thou art Lord of all, thou makest thyself gracious to all. Wis. 12:16
- But thou being master of power, judgest with tranquillity, and with great favour disposest of us: for thy power is at hand when thou wilt. Wis. 12:18
- ¤ But all men are vain, in whom there is not the knowledge of God: and who by these good things that are seen, could not understand him that is, neither by attending to the works have acknowledged who was the workman: Wis. 13:1
- With whose beauty, if they, being delighted, took them to be gods: let them know how much the Lord of them is more beautiful than they: for the first author of beauty made all those things. Wis. 13:3
- Or if they admired their power, and their effects, let them understand by them, that he that made them, is mightier than they: Wis. 13:4
- But unhappy are they, and their hope is among the dead, who have called gods the works of the hand of men, gold and silver, the inventions of art, and the resemblances of beasts, or an unprofitable stone the work of an ancient hand. Wis. 13:10
- And taking what was left thereof, which is good for nothing, being a crooked piece of wood, and full of knots, carveth it diligently when he hath nothing else to do, and by the skill of his art fashioneth it, and maketh it like the image of a man: Wis. 13:13
- Or the resemblance of some beast, laying it over with vermillion, and painting it red, and covering every spot that is in it: Wis. 13:14
- Providing for it, lest it should fall, knowing that it is unable to help itself: for it is an image, and hath need of help. Wis. 13:16
- And then maketh prayer to it, inquiring concerning his substance, and his children, or his marriage. And he is not ashamed to speak to that which hath no life: Wis. 13:17
- And for health he maketh supplication to the weak, and for life prayeth to that which is dead, and for help calleth upon that which is unprofitable: Wis. 13:18
- And for a good journey he petitioneth him that cannot walk: and for getting, and for working, and for the event of all things he asketh him that is unable to do any thing. Wis. 13:19
- For blessed is the wood, by which justice cometh Wis. 14:7
- But the idol that is made by hands, is cursed, as well it, as he that made it: he because he made it; and it because being frail it is called a god. Wis. 14:8
- For that which is made, together with him that made it, shall suffer torments. Wis. 14:10
- For the beginning of fornication is the devising of idols: and the invention of them is the corruption of life. Wis. 14:12
- For the worship of abominable idols is the cause, and the beginning and end of all evil. Wis. 14:27
- For it is not the power of them, by whom they swear, but the just vengeance of sinners always punisheth the transgression of the unjust. Wis. 14:31
- For to know thee is perfect justice: and to know thy justice, and thy power, is the root of immortality. Wis. 15:3
- The potter also tempering soft earth, with labour fashioneth every vessel for our service, and of the same clay he maketh both vessels that are for clean uses, and likewise such as serve to the contrary: but what is the use of these vessels, the potter is the judge. Wis. 15:7
- But his care is, not that he shall labour, nor that his life is short, but he striveth with the goldsmiths and silversmiths: and he endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it a glory to make vain things. Wis. 15:9
- For his heart is ashes, and his hope vain earth and his life more base than clay: Wis. 15:10
- For being mortal himself, he formeth a dead thing with his wicked hands. For he is better than they whom he worshippeth, because he indeed hath lived, though he were mortal, but they never. Wis. 15:17
- For it is thou, O Lord, that hast power of life and death, and leadest down to the gates of death, and bringest back again: Wis. 16:13
- A man indeed killeth through malice, and when the spirit is gone forth, it shall not return, neither shall he call back the soul that is received: Wis. 16:14
- But it is impossible to escape thy hand: Wis. 16:15
- Instead of which things, thou didst feed thy people with the food of angels, and gavest them bread from heaven, prepared without labour; having in it all that is delicious, and the sweetness of every taste. Wis. 16:20
- For the creature serving thee, the Creator, is made fierce against the unjust for their punishment: and abateth its strength for the benefit of them that trust in thee. Wis. 16:24
- That thy children, O Lord, whom thou lovedst, might know that it is not the growing of fruits that nourisheth men, but thy word preserveth them that believe in thee. Wis. 16:26
- For whereas wickedness is fearful, it beareth witness of its condemnation: for a troubled conscience always forecasteth grievous things. Wis. 17:10
- For fear is nothing else but a yielding up of the succours from thought. Wis. 17:11
- And while there is less expectation from within, the greater doth it count the ignorance of that cause which bringeth the torment. Wis. 17:12
- For while the elements are changed in themselves, as in an instrument the sound of the quality is changed, yet all keep their sound: which may clearly be perceived by the very sight. Wis. 19:17
- ‡ ¤ All wisdom is from the Lord God, and hath been always with him, and is before all time. Sir. 1:1
- The word of God on high is the fountain of wisdom, and her ways are everlasting commandments. Sir. 1:5
- There is one most high Creator Almighty, and a powerful king, and greatly to be feared, who sitteth upon his throne, and is the God of dominion. Sir. 1:8
- The fear of the Lord is honour, and glory, and gladness, and a crown of joy. Sir. 1:11
- The love of God is honourable wisdom. Sir. 1:14
- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and was created with the faithful in the womb, it walketh with chosen women, and is known with the just and faithful. Sir. 1:16
- The fear of the Lord is the religiousness of knowledge. Sir. 1:17
- To fear God is the fulness of wisdom, and fulness is from the fruits thereof. Sir. 1:20
- The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, filling up peace and the fruit of salvation: Sir. 1:22
- The root of wisdom is to fear the Lord: and the branches thereof are long-lived. Sir. 1:25
- In the treasures of wisdom is understanding, and religiousness of knowledge: but to sinners wisdom is an abomination. Sir. 1:26
- For he that is without fear, cannot be justified: for the wrath of his high spirits is his ruin. Sir. 1:28
- In the treasures of wisdom is the signification of discipline: Sir. 1:31
- But the worship of God is an abomination to a sinner. Sir. 1:32
- For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and discipline: and that which is agreeable to him, Sir. 1:34
- Is faith, and meekness: and he will fill up his treasures. Sir. 1:35
- Because thou camest to the Lord wickedly, and thy heart is full of guile and deceit. Sir. 1:40
- For God is compassionate and merciful, and will forgive sins in the day of tribulation: and he is a protector to all that seek him in truth. Sir. 2:13
- For according to his greatness, so also is his mercy with him. Sir. 2:23
- And he that honoureth his mother is as one that layeth up a treasure. Sir. 3:5
- Glory not in the dishonour of thy father: for his shame is no glory to thee. Sir. 3:12
- For the glory of a man is from the honour of his father, and a father without honour is the disgrace of the son. Sir. 3:13
- Of what an evil fame is he that forsaketh his father: and he is cursed of God that angereth his mother. Sir. 3:18
- For great is the power of God alone, and he is honoured by the humble. Sir. 3:21
- For it is not necessary for thee to see with thy eyes those things that are hid. Sir. 3:23
- The heart of the wise is understood in wisdom, and a good ear will hear wisdom with all desire. Sir. 3:31
- Afflict not the heart of the needy, and defer not to give to him that is in distress. Sir. 4:3
- For there is a shame that bringeth sin, and there is a shame that bringeth glory and grace. Sir. 4:25
- For by the tongue wisdom is discerned: and understanding, and knowledge, and learning by the word of the wise, and steadfastness in the works of justice. Sir. 4:29
- Say not: I have sinned, and what harm hath befallen me? for the most High is a patient rewarder. Sir. 5:4
- And say not: The mercy of the Lord is great, he will have mercy on the multitude of my sins. Sir. 5:6
- Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so is every sinner proved by a double tongue. Sir. 5:11
- Honour and glory is in the word of the wise, but the tongue of the fool is his ruin. Sir. 5:15
- For confusion and repentance is upon a thief, and an evil mark of disgrace upon the double tongued, but to the whisperer hatred, and enmity, and reproach. Sir. 5:17
- ¤ Instead of a friend become not an enemy to thy neighbour: for an evil man shall inherit reproach and shame, so shall every sinner that is envious and double tongued. Sir. 6:1
- For there is a friend for his own occasion, and he will not abide in the day of thy trouble. Sir. 6:8
- And there is a friend that turneth to enmity; and there is a friend that will disclose hatred and strife and reproaches. Sir. 6:9
- And there is a friend a companion at the table, and he will not abide in the day of distress. Sir. 6:10
- A faithful friend is a strong defence: and he that hath found him, hath found a treasure. Sir. 6:14
- Nothing can be compared to a faithful friend, and no weight of gold and silver is able to countervail the goodness of his fidelity. Sir. 6:15
- A faithful friend is the medicine of life and immortality: and they that fear the Lord, shall find him. Sir. 6:16
- How very unpleasant is wisdom to the unlearned, and the unwise will not continue with her. Sir. 6:21
- For the wisdom of doctrine is according to her name, and she is not manifest unto many, but with them to whom she is known, she continueth even to the sight of God. Sir. 6:23
- For in her is the beauty of life, and her bands are a healthful binding. Sir. 6:31
- Laugh no man to scorn in the bitterness of his soul: for there is one that humbleth and exalteth, God who seeth all. Sir. 7:12
- Be not willing to make any manner of lie: for the custom thereof is not good. Sir. 7:14
- Humble thy spirit very much: for the vengeance on the flesh of the ungodly is fire and worms. Sir. 7:19
- Depart not from a wise and good wife, whom thou hast gotten in the fear of the Lord: for the grace of her modesty is above gold. Sir. 7:21
- If thou hast a wife according to thy soul, cast her not off: and to her that is hateful, trust not thyself. With thy whole heart, Sir. 7:28
- Give them their portion, as it is commanded thee, of the firstfruits and of purifications: and for thy negligences purify thyself with a few. Sir. 7:34
- Strive not with a man that is full of tongue, and heap not wood upon his fire. Sir. 8:4
- Lend not to a man that is mightier than thyself: and if thou lendest, count it as lost. Sir. 8:15
- Judge not against a judge: for he judgeth according to that which is just. Sir. 8:17
- Quarrel not with a passionate man, and go not into the desert with a bold man: for blood is as nothing in his sight, and where there is no help he will overthrow thee. Sir. 8:19
- Use not much the company of her that is a dancer, and hearken not to her, lest thou perish by the force of her charms. Sir. 9:4
- For many have perished by the beauty of a woman, and hereby lust is enkindled as a fire. Sir. 9:9
- Every woman that is a harlot, shall be trodden upon as dung in the way. Sir. 9:10
- A new friend is as new wine: it shall grow old, and thou shalt drink it with pleasure. Sir. 9:15
- A man full of tongue is terrible in his city, and he that is rash in his word shall be hateful. Sir. 9:25
- As the judge of the people is himself, so also are his ministers: and what manner of man the ruler of a city is, such also are they that dwell therein. Sir. 10:2
- The power of the earth is in the hand of God, and in his time he will raise up a profitable ruler over it. Sir. 10:4
- The prosperity of man is in the hand of God, and upon the person of the scribe he shall lay his honour. Sir. 10:5
- Pride is hateful before God and men: and all iniquity of nations is execrable. Sir. 10:7
- A kingdom is translated from one people to another, because of injustices, and wrongs, and injuries, and divers deceits. Sir. 10:8
- But nothing is more wicked than the covetous man. Why is earth, and ashes proud? Sir. 10:9
- There is not a more wicked thing than to love money: for such a one setteth even his own soul to sale: because while he liveth he hath cast away his bowels. Sir. 10:10
- All power is of short life. A long sickness is troublesome to the physician. Sir. 10:11
- The physician cutteth off a short sickness: so also a king is to day, and to morrow he shall die. Sir. 10:12
- The beginning of the pride of man, is to fall off from God: Sir. 10:14
- Because his heart is departed from him that made him: for pride is the beginning of all sin: he that holdeth it, shall be filled with maledictions, and it shall ruin him in the end. Sir. 10:15
- In the midst of brethren their chief is honourable: so shall they that fear the Lord, be in his eyes. Sir. 10:24
- The fear of God is the glory of the rich, and of the honourable, and of the poor. Sir. 10:25
- Despise not a just man that is poor, and do not magnify a sinful man that is rich. Sir. 10:26
- The great man, and the judge, and the mighty is in honour: and there is none greater than he that feareth God. Sir. 10:27
- They that are free shall serve a servant that is wise: and a man that is prudent and well instructed will not murmur when he is reproved; and he that is ignorant, shall not be honoured. Sir. 10:28
- Better is he that laboureth, and aboundeth in all things, than he that boasteth himself and wanteth bread. Sir. 10:30
- The poor man is glorified by his discipline and fear, and there is a man that is honoured for his wealth. Sir. 10:33
- But he that is glorified in poverty, how much more in wealth? and he that is glorified in wealth, let him fear poverty. Sir. 10:34
- The bee is small among flying things but her fruit hath the chiefest sweetness. Sir. 11:3
- There is an ungodly man that laboureth, and maketh haste, and is in sorrow, and is so much the more in want. Sir. 11:11
- Again, there is an inactive man that wanteth help, is very weak in ability, and full of poverty: Sir. 11:12
- There is one that is enriched by living sparingly, and this is the portion of his reward. Sir. 11:18
- For it is easy in the eyes of God on a sudden to make the poor man rich. Sir. 11:23
- For it is easy before God in the day of death to reward every one according to his ways. Sir. 11:28
- The affliction of an hour maketh one forget great delights, and in the end of a man is the disclosing of his works. Sir. 11:29
- Praise not any man before death, for a man is known by his children. Sir. 11:30
- For as corrupted bowels send forth stinking breath, and as the partridge is brought into the cage, and as the roe into the snare: so also is the heart of the proud, and as a spy that looketh on the fall of his neighbour. Sir. 11:32
- For there is no good for him that is always occupied in evil, and that giveth no alms: for the Highest hateth sinners, and hath mercy on the penitent. Sir. 12:3
- In the prosperity of a man, his enemies are grieved: and a friend is known in his adversity. Sir. 12:9
- Who will pity an enchanter struck by a serpent, or any that come near wild beasts? so is it with him that keepeth company with a wicked man, and is involved in his sins. Sir. 12:13
- He shall take a burden upon him that hath fellowship with one more honourable than himself. And have no fellowship with one that is richer than thyself. Sir. 13:2
- The rich man hath done wrong, and yet he will fume: but the poor is wronged and must hold his peace. Sir. 13:4
- If thou be invited by one that is mightier, withdraw thyself: for so he will invite thee the more. Sir. 13:12
- Every beast loveth its like: so also every man him that is nearest to himself. Sir. 13:19
- The wild ass is the lion's prey in the desert: so also the poor are devoured by the rich. Sir. 13:23
- And as humility is an abomination to the proud: so also the rich man abhorreth the poor. Sir. 13:24
- When a rich man is shaken, he is kept up by his friends: but when a poor man is fallen down, he is thrust away even by his acquaintance. Sir. 13:25
- The poor man was deceived, and he is rebuked also: he hath spoken wisely, and could have no place. Sir. 13:27
- The poor man spoke, and they say: Who is this? and if he stumble, they will overthrow him. Sir. 13:29
- Riches are good to him that hath no sin in his conscience: and poverty is very wicked in the mouth of the ungodly. Sir. 13:30
- ¤ Blessed is the man that hath not slipped by a word out of his mouth, and is not pricked with the remorse of sin. Sir. 14:1
- Happy is he that hath had no sadness of his mind, and who is not fallen from his hope. Sir. 14:2
- He that is evil to himself, to whom will he be good? and he shall not take pleasure in his goods. Sir. 14:5
- There is none worse than he that envieth himself, and this is the reward of his wickedness: Sir. 14:6
- The eye of the envious is wicked: and he turneth away his face, and despiseth his own soul. Sir. 14:8
- The eye of the covetous man is insatiable in his portion of iniquity: he will not be satisfied till he consume his own soul, drying it up. Sir. 14:9
- An evil eye is towards evil things: and he shall not have his fill of bread, but shall be needy and pensive at his own table. Sir. 14:10
- Remember that death is not slow, and that the covenant of hell hath been shewn to thee: for the covenant of this world shall surely die. Sir. 14:12
- Before thy death work justice: for in hell there is no finding food. Sir. 14:17
- Some grow, and some fall off: so is the generation of flesh and blood, one cometh to an end, and another is born. Sir. 14:19
- Every work that is corruptible shall fail in the end: and the worker thereof shall go with it. Sir. 14:20
- Blessed is the man that shall continue in wisdom, and that shall meditate in his justice, and in his mind shall think of the all seeing eye of God. Sir. 14:22
- But foolish men shall not obtain her, and wise men shall meet her, foolish men shall not see her: for she is far from pride and deceit. Sir. 15:7
- Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner: Sir. 15:9
- Say not: It is through God, that she is not with me: for do not thou the things that he hateth. Sir. 15:11
- Before man is life and death, good and evil, that which he shall choose shall be given him: Sir. 15:18
- For the wisdom of God is great, and he is strong in power, seeing all men without ceasing. Sir. 15:19
- For better is one that feareth God, than a thousand ungodly children. Sir. 16:3
- And it is better to die without children, than to leave ungodly children. Sir. 16:4
- By one that is wise a country shall be inhabited, the tribe of the ungodly shall become desolate. Sir. 16:5
- So did he with the six hundred thousand footmen, who were gathered together in the hardness of their heart: and if one had been stiffnecked, it is a wonder if he had escaped unpunished: Sir. 16:11
- For mercy and wrath are with him. He is mighty to forgive, and to pour out indignation: Sir. 16:12
- According as his mercy is, so his correction judgeth a man according to his works. Sir. 16:13
- In such a multitude I shall not be known: for what is my soul in such an immense creation? Sir. 16:17
- And in all these things the heart is senseless: and every heart is understood by him. Sir. 16:20
- For many of his works are hidden, but the works of his justice who shall declare? or who shall endure? for the testament is far from some, and the examination of all is in the end. Sir. 16:22
- The alms of a man is as a signet with him, and shall preserve the grace of a man as the apple of the eye: Sir. 17:18
- How great is the mercy of the Lord, and his forgiveness to them that turn to him ! Sir. 17:28
- For all things cannot be in men, because the son of man is not immortal, and they are delighted with the vanity of evil. Sir. 17:29
- What is brighter than the sun; yet it shall be eclipsed. Or what is more wicked than that which flesh and blood hath invented? and this shall be reproved. Sir. 17:30
- Who is able to declare his works? Sir. 18:2
- Nothing may be taken away, nor added, neither is it possible to find out the glorious works of God. Sir. 18:5
- What is man, and what is his grace? and what is his good, or what is his evil? Sir. 18:7
- Therefore God is patient in them, and poureth forth his mercy upon them. Sir. 18:9
- He hath seen the presumption of their heart that it is wicked, and hath known their end that it is evil. Sir. 18:10
- The compassion of man is toward his neighbour: but the mercy of God is upon all flesh. Sir. 18:12
- Shall not the dew assuage the heat? so also the good word is better than the gift. Sir. 18:16
- Lo, is not a word better than a gift? but both are with a justified man. Sir. 18:17
- Take no pleasure in riotous assemblies, be they ever so small: for their concertation is continual. Sir. 18:32
- ¤ A workman that is a drunkard shall not be rich: and he that contemneth small things, shall fall by little and little. Sir. 19:1
- He that is hasty to give credit, is light of heart, and shall be lessened: and he that sinneth against his own soul, shall be despised. Sir. 19:4
- He that sinneth against his own soul, shall repent: and he that is delighted with wickedness, shall be condemned. Sir. 19:6
- At the hearing of a word the fool is in travail, as a woman groaning in the bringing forth a child. Sir. 19:11
- As an arrow that sticketh in a man's thigh: so is a word in the heart of a fool. Sir. 19:12
- Admonish thy friend: for there is often a fault committed. Sir. 19:15
- And believe not every word. There is one, that slippeth with the tongue, but not from his heart. Sir. 19:16
- For who is there that hath not offended with his tongue? Admonish thy neighbour before thou threaten him. Sir. 19:17
- And give place to the fear of the most High: for the fear of God is all wisdom, and therein is to fear God, and the disposition of the law is in all wisdom. Sir. 19:18
- But the learning of wickedness is not wisdom: and the device of sinners is not prudence. Sir. 19:19
- There is a subtle wickedness, and the same is detestable: and there is a man that is foolish, wanting in wisdom. Sir. 19:20
- Better is a man that hath less wisdom, and wanteth understanding, with the fear of God, than he that aboundeth in understanding, and transgresseth the law of the most High. Sir. 19:21
- There is an exquisite subtilty, and the same is unjust. Sir. 19:22
- And there is one that uttereth an exact word telling the truth. There is one that humbleth himself wickedly, and his interior is full of deceit: Sir. 19:23
- And there is one that submitteth himself exceedingly with a great lowliness: and there is one that casteth down his countenance, and maketh as if he did not see that which is unknown: Sir. 19:24
- A man is known by his look, and a wise man, when thou meetest him, is known by his countenance. Sir. 19:26
- The attire of the body, and the laughter of the teeth, and the gait of the man, shew what he is. Sir. 19:27
- There is a lying rebuke in the anger of an injurious man: and there is a judgment that is not allowed to be good: and there is one that holdeth his peace, he is wise. Sir. 19:28
- ¤ How much better is it to reprove, than to be angry, and not to hinder him that confesseth in prayer. Sir. 20:1
- So is he that by violence executeth of the unwise. Sir. 20:3
- How good is it, when thou art reproved, to shew repentance! for so thou shalt escape wilful sin. Sir. 20:4
- There is one that holdeth his peace, that is found wise: and there is another that is hateful, that is bold in speech. Sir. 20:5
- There is one that holdeth his peace, because he knoweth not what to say: and there is another that holdeth his peace, knowing the proper time. Sir. 20:6
- There is success in evil things to a man without discipline, and there is a finding that turneth to loss. Sir. 20:9
- There is a gift that is not profitable: and there is a gift, the recompense of which is double. Sir. 20:10
- There is an abasement because of glory: and there is one that shall lift up his head from a low estate. Sir. 20:11
- There is that buyeth much for a small price, and restoreth the same sevenfold. Sir. 20:12
- He will give a few things, and upbraid much: and the opening of his mouth is the kindling of a fire. Sir. 20:15
- To day a man lendeth, and to morrow he asketh it again: such a man as this is hateful. Sir. 20:16
- The slipping of a false tongue is as one that falleth on the pavement: so the fall of the wicked shall come speedily. Sir. 20:20
- A man without grace is as a vain fable, it shall be continually in the mouth of the unwise. Sir. 20:21
- There is that is hindered from sinning through want, and in his rest he shall be pricked. Sir. 20:23
- There is that will destroy his own soul through shamefacedness, and by occasion of an unwise person he will destroy it: and by respect of person he will destroy himself. Sir. 20:24
- There is that for bashfulness promiseth to his friend, and maketh him his enemy for nothing. Sir. 20:25
- A lie is a foul blot in a man, and yet it will be continually in the mouth of men without discipline. Sir. 20:26
- A thief is better than a man that is always lying: but both of them shall inherit destruction. Sir. 20:27
- The manners of lying men are without honour: and their confusion is with them without ceasing. Sir. 20:28
- O Wisdom that is hid, and treasure that is not seen: what profit is there in them both? Sir. 20:32
- Better is he that hideth his folly, than the man that hideth his wisdom. Sir. 20:33
- All iniquity is like a two-edged sword, there is no remedy for the wound thereof. Sir. 21:4
- Injuries and wrongs will waste riches: and the house that is very rich shall be brought to nothing by pride: so the substance of the proud shall be rooted out. Sir. 21:5
- He that is mighty by a bold tongue is known afar off, but a wise man knoweth to slip by him. Sir. 21:8
- He that buildeth his house at other men's charges, is as he that gathereth himself stones to build in the winter. Sir. 21:9
- The congregation of sinners is like tow heaped together, and the end of them is a flame of fire. Sir. 21:10
- The way of sinners is made plain with stones, and in their end is hell, and darkness, and pains. Sir. 21:11
- The perfection of the fear of God is wisdom and understanding. Sir. 21:13
- He that is not wise in good, will not be taught. Sir. 21:14
- But there is a wisdom that aboundeth in evil: and there is no understanding where there is bitterness. Sir. 21:15
- The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold. Sir. 21:17
- The talking of a fool is like a burden in the way: but in the lips of the wise, grace shall be found. Sir. 21:19
- The mouth of the prudent is sought after in the church, and they will think upon his words in their hearts. Sir. 21:20
- As a house that is destroyed, so is wisdom to a fool: and the knowledge of the unwise is as words without sense. Sir. 21:21
- Doctrine to a fool is as fetters on the feet, and like manacles on the right hand. Sir. 21:22
- Learning to the prudent is as an ornament of gold, and like a bracelet upon his right arm. Sir. 21:24
- The foot of a fool is soon in his neighbour's house: but a man of experience will be abashed at the person of the mighty. Sir. 21:25
- A fool will peep through the window into the house: but he that is well taught will stand without. Sir. 21:26
- It is the folly of a man to hearken at the door: and a wise man will be grieved with the disgrace. Sir. 21:27
- The heart of fools is in their mouth: and the mouth of wise men is in their heart. Sir. 21:29
- ¤ The sluggard is pelted with a dirty stone, and all men will speak of his disgrace. Sir. 22:1
- The sluggard is pelted with the dung of oxen: and every one that toucheth him will shake his hands. Sir. 22:2
- A son ill taught is the confusion of the father: and a foolish daughter shall be to his loss. Sir. 22:3
- She that is bold shameth both her father and husband, and will not be inferior to the ungodly: and shall be disgraced by them both. Sir. 22:5
- A tale out of time is like music in mourning: but the stripes and instruction of wisdom are never out of time. Sir. 22:6
- He that teacheth a fool, is like one that glueth a potsherd together. Sir. 22:7
- He that telleth a word to him that heareth not, is like one that waketh a man out of a deep sleep. Sir. 22:8
- He speaketh with one that is asleep, who uttereth wisdom to a fool: and in the end of the discourse he saith: Who is this? Sir. 22:9
- Weep but a little for the dead, for he is at rest. Sir. 22:11
- For the wicked life of a wicked fool is worse than death. Sir. 22:12
- The mourning for the dead is seven days: but for a fool and an ungodly man all the days of their life. Sir. 22:13
- What is heavier than lead? and what other name hath he but fool? Sir. 22:17
- Sand and salt, and a mass of iron is easier to bear, than a man without sense, that is both foolish and wicked. Sir. 22:18
- A frame of wood bound together in the foundation of a building, shall not be loosed: so neither shall the heart that is established by advised counsel. Sir. 22:19
- The thought of him that is wise at all times, shall not be depraved by fear. Sir. 22:20
- A sinner is caught in his own vanity, and the proud and the evil speakers shall fall thereby. Sir. 23:8
- For as a slave daily put to the question, is never without a blue mark: so every one that sweareth, and nameth, shall not be wholly pure from sin. Sir. 23:11
- There is also another speech opposite to death, let it not be found in the inheritance of Jacob. Sir. 23:15
- Let not thy mouth be accustomed to indiscreet speech: for therein is the word of sin. Sir. 23:17
- The man that is accustomed to opprobrious words, will never be corrected all the days of his life. Sir. 23:20
- A hot soul is a burning fire, it will never be quenched, till it devour some thing. Sir. 23:22
- And a man that is wicked in the mouth of his flesh, will not leave off till he hath kindled a fire. Sir. 23:23
- To a man that is a fornicator all bread is sweet, he will not be weary of sinning unto the end. Sir. 23:24
- And they that remain shall know, that there is nothing better than the fear of God: and that there is nothing sweeter than to have regard to the commandments of the Lord. Sir. 23:37
- It is great glory to follow the Lord: for length of days shall be received from him. Sir. 23:38
- I dwelt in the highest places, and my throne is in a pillar of a cloud. Sir. 24:7
- And I took root in an honourable people, and in the portion of my God his inheritance, and my abode is in the full assembly of saints. Sir. 24:16
- And I perfumed my dwelling as storax, and galbanum, and onyx, and aloes, and as the frankincense not cut, and my odour is as the purest balm. Sir. 24:21
- In me is all grace of the way and of the truth, in me is all hope of life and of virtue. Sir. 24:25
- For my spirit is sweet above honey, and my inheritance above honey and the honeycomb. Sir. 24:27
- My memory is unto everlasting generations. Sir. 24:28
- ¤ With three things my spirit is pleased, which are approved before God and men: Sir. 25:1
- A poor man that is proud: a rich man that is a liar: an old man that is a fool, and doting. Sir. 25:4
- O how comely is judgment for a grey head, and for ancients to know counsel! Sir. 25:6
- O how comely is wisdom for the aged, and understanding and counsel to men of honour! Sir. 25:7
- Much experience is the crown of old men, and the fear of God is their glory. Sir. 25:8
- Blessed is he that dwelleth with a wise woman, and that hath not slipped with his tongue, and that hath not served such as are unworthy of him. Sir. 25:11
- Blessed is he that findeth a true friend, and that declareth justice to an ear that heareth. Sir. 25:12
- How great is he that findeth wisdom and knowledge! but there is none above him that feareth the Lord. Sir. 25:13
- Blessed is the man, to whom it is given to have the fear of God: he that holdeth it, to whom shall he be likened? Sir. 25:15
- The fear of God is the beginning of his love: and the beginning of faith is to be fast joined unto it. Sir. 25:16
- The sadness of the heart is every plague: and the wickedness of a woman is all evil. Sir. 25:17
- There is no head worse than the head of a serpent: Sir. 25:22
- And there is no anger above the anger of a woman. It will be more agreeable to abide with a lion and a dragon, than to dwell with a wicked woman. Sir. 25:23
- All malice is short to the malice of a woman, let the lot of sinners fall upon her. Sir. 25:26
- As the climbing of a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, so is a wife full of tongue to a quiet man. Sir. 25:27
- A woman's anger, and impudence, and confusion is great. Sir. 25:29
- A woman, if she have superiority, is contrary to her husband. Sir. 25:30
- ¤ Happy is the husband of a good wife: for the number of his years is double. Sir. 26:1
- A good wife is a good portion, she shall be given in the portion of them that fear God, to a man for his good deeds. Sir. 26:3
- Rich or poor, if his heart is good, his countenance shall be cheerful at all times. Sir. 26:4
- A jealous woman is the grief and mourning of the heart. Sir. 26:8
- With a jealous woman is a scourge of the tongue which communicateth with all. Sir. 26:9
- As a yoke of oxen that is moved to and fro, so also is a wicked woman: he that hath hold of her, is as he that taketh hold of a scorpion. Sir. 26:10
- A drunken woman is a great wrath: and her reproach and shame shall not be hid. Sir. 26:11
- Her discipline is the gift of God. Sir. 26:17
- Such is a wise and silent woman, and there is nothing so much worth as a well instructed soul. Sir. 26:18
- A holy and shamefaced woman is grace upon grace. Sir. 26:19
- And no price is worthy of a continent soul. Sir. 26:20
- As the sun when it riseth to the world in the high places of God, so is the beauty of a good wife for the ornament of her house. Sir. 26:21
- As the lamp shining upon the holy candlestick, so is the beauty of the face in a ripe age, Sir. 26:22
- At two things my heart is grieved, and the third bringeth anger upon me. Sir. 26:25
- Two sorts of callings have appeared to me hard and dangerous: a merchant is hardly free from negligence: and a huckster shall not be justified from the sins of the lips. Sir. 26:28
- Praise not a man before he speaketh, for this is the trial of men. Sir. 27:8
- A holy man continueth in wisdom as the sun: but a fool is changed as the moon. Sir. 27:12
- The discourse of sinners is hateful, and their laughter is at the pleasures of sin. Sir. 27:14
- In the quarrels of the proud is the shedding of blood: and their cursing is a grievous hearing. Sir. 27:16
- For as a man that destroyeth his friend, so also is he that destroyeth the friendship of his neighbour. Sir. 27:20
- Follow after him no more, for he is gone afar off, he is fled, as a roe escaped out of the snare because his soul is wounded. Sir. 27:22
- Thou canst no more bind him up. And of a curse there is reconciliation: Sir. 27:23
- He that is but flesh, nourisheth anger, and doth he ask forgiveness of God? who shall obtain pardon for his sins? Sir. 28:5
- For as the wood of the forest is, so the fire burneth, and as a man's strength is, so shall his anger be, and according to his riches he shall increase his anger. Sir. 28:12
- The whisperer and the double tongued is accursed: for he hath troubled many that were at peace. Sir. 28:15
- Blessed is he that is defended from a wicked tongue, that hath not passed into the wrath thereof, and that hath not drawn the yoke thereof, and hath not been bound in its bands. Sir. 28:23
- For its yoke is a yoke of iron: and its bands are bands of brass. Sir. 28:24
- The death thereof is a most evil death: and hell is preferable to it. Sir. 28:25
- ¤ He that sheweth mercy, lendeth to his neighbour: and he that is stronger in hand, keepeth the commandments. Sir. 29:1
- Keep thy word, and deal faithfully with him: and thou shalt always find that which is necessary for thee. Sir. 29:3
- A good man is surety for his neighbour: and he that hath lost shame, will leave him to himself. Sir. 29:18
- A sinner attributeth to himself the goods of his surety: and he that is of an unthankful mind will leave him that delivered him. Sir. 29:21
- A man is surety for his neighbour: and when he hath lost all shame, he shall forsake him. Sir. 29:22
- The chief thing for man's life is water and bread, and clothing, and a house to cover shame. Sir. 29:27
- Better is the poor man's fare under a roof of boards, than sumptuous cheer abroad in another man's house. Sir. 29:28
- It is a miserable life to go as a guest from house to house: for where a man is a stranger, he shall not deal confidently, nor open his mouth. Sir. 29:30
- His father is dead, and he is as if he were not dead: for he hath left one behind him that is like himself. Sir. 30:4
- Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat his sides while he is a child, lest he grow stubborn, and regard thee not, and so be a sorrow of heart to thee. Sir. 30:12
- Better is a poor man who is sound, and strong of constitution, than a rich man who is weak and afflicted with evils. Sir. 30:14
- Health of the soul in holiness of justice, is better than all gold and silver: and a sound body, than immense revenues. Sir. 30:15
- There is no riches above the riches of the health of the body: and there is no pleasure above the joy of the heart. Sir. 30:16
- Better is death than a bitter life, and everlasting rest, than continual sickness. Sir. 30:17
- Good things that are hidden in a mouth that is shut, are as messes of meat set about a grave. Sir. 30:18
- So is he that is persecuted by the Lord, bearing the reward of his iniquity: Sir. 30:20
- The joyfulness of the heart, is the life of a man, and a never failing treasure of holiness: and the joy of a man is length of life. Sir. 30:23
- For sadness hath killed many, and there is no profit in it. Sir. 30:25
- A cheerful and good heart is always feasting: for his banquets are prepared with diligence. Sir. 30:27
- The poor man hath laboured in his low way of life, and in the end he is still poor. Sir. 31:4
- Gold is a stumblingblock to them that sacrifice to it: woe to them that eagerly follow after it, and every fool shall perish by it. Sir. 31:7
- Blessed is the rich man that is found without blemish: and that hath not gone after gold, nor put his trust in money nor in treasures. Sir. 31:8
- Who is he, and we will praise him? for he hath done wonderful things in his life. Sir. 31:9
- Remember that a wicked eye is evil. Sir. 31:14
- What is created more wicked than an eye? therefore shall it weep over all the face when it shall see. Sir. 31:15
- How sufficient is a little wine for a man well taught, and in sleeping thou shalt not be uneasy with it, and thou shalt feel no pain. Sir. 31:22
- The lips of many shall bless him that is liberal of his bread, and the testimony of his truth is faithful. Sir. 31:28
- Against him that is niggardly of his bread, the city will murmur, and the testimony of his niggardliness is true. Sir. 31:29
- Wine taken with sobriety is equal life to men: if thou drink it moderately, thou shalt be sober. Sir. 31:32
- What is his life, who is diminished with wine? Sir. 31:33
- Wine drunken with moderation is the joy of the soul and the heart. Sir. 31:36
- Sober drinking is health to soul and body. Sir. 31:37
- Wine drunken with excess is bitterness of the soul. Sir. 31:39
- The heat of drunkenness is the stumblingblock of the fool, lessening strength and causing wounds. Sir. 31:40
- Where there is no hearing, pour not out words, and be not lifted up out of season with thy wisdom. Sir. 32:6
- A concert of music in a banquet of wine is as a carbuncle set in gold. Sir. 32:7
- As a signet of an emerald in a work of gold: so is the melody of music with pleasant and moderate wine. Sir. 32:8
- In every work of thine regard thy soul in faith: for this is the keeping of the commandments. Sir. 32:27
- A man of understanding is faithful to the law of God, and the law is faithful to him. Sir. 33:3
- The heart of a fool is as a wheel of a cart: and his thoughts are like a rolling axletree. Sir. 33:5
- A friend that is a mocker, is like a stallion horse: he neigheth under every one that sitteth upon him. Sir. 33:6
- As the potter's clay is in his hand, to fashion and order it: Sir. 33:13
- All his ways are according to his ordering: so man is in the hand of him that made him, and he will render to him according to his judgment. Sir. 33:14
- Good is set against evil, and life against death: so also is the sinner against a just man. And so look upon all the works of the most High. Two and two, and one against another. Sir. 33:15
- For it is better that thy children should ask of thee, than that thou look toward the hands of thy children. Sir. 33:22
- Set him to work: for so it is fit for him. And if he be not obedient, bring him down with fetters, but be not excessive towards any one, and do no grievous thing without judgment. Sir. 33:30
- ¤ The hopes of a man that is void of understanding are vain and deceitful: and dreams lift up fools. Sir. 34:1
- The man that giveth heed to lying visions, is like to him that catcheth at a shadow, and followeth after the wind. Sir. 34:2
- The vision of dreams is the resemblance of one thing to another: as when a man's likeness is before the face of a man. Sir. 34:3
- What can be made clean by the unclean? and what truth can come from that which is false? Sir. 34:4
- The spirit of those that fear God, is sought after, and by his regard shall be blessed. Sir. 34:14
- For their hope is on him that saveth them, and the eyes of God are upon them that love him. Sir. 34:15
- He that feareth the Lord shall tremble at nothing, and shall not be afraid: for he is his hope. Sir. 34:16
- The soul of him that feareth the Lord is blessed. Sir. 34:17
- To whom doth he look, and who is his strength? Sir. 34:18
- The eyes of the Lord are upon them that fear him, he is their powerful protector, and strong stay, a defence from the heat, and a cover from the sun at noon, Sir. 34:19
- The offering of him that sacrificeth of a thing wrongfully gotten, is stained, and the mockeries of the unjust are not acceptable. Sir. 34:21
- The Lord is only for them that wait upon him in the way of truth and justice. Sir. 34:22
- He that offereth sacrifice of the goods of the poor, is as one that sacrificeth the son in the presence of his father. Sir. 34:24
- The bread of the needy, is the life of the poor: he that defraudeth them thereof, is a man of blood. Sir. 34:25
- He that taketh away the bread gotten by sweat, is like him that killeth his neighbour. Sir. 34:26
- It is a wholesome sacrifice to take heed to the commandments, and to depart from all iniquity. Sir. 35:2
- And to depart from injustice, is to offer a propitiatory sacrifice for injustices, and a begging of pardon for sins. Sir. 35:3
- To depart from iniquity is that which pleaseth the Lord, and to depart from injustice, is an entreaty for sins. Sir. 35:5
- The oblation of the just maketh the altar fat, and is an odour of sweetness in the sight of the most High. Sir. 35:8
- The sacrifice of the just is acceptable, and the Lord will not forget the memorial thereof. Sir. 35:9
- And look not upon an unjust sacrifice, for the Lord is judge, and there is not with him respect of person. Sir. 35:15
- The Lord will not accept any person against a poor man, and he will hear the prayer of him that is wronged. Sir. 35:16
- The mercy of God is beautiful in the time of affliction, as a cloud of rain in the time of drought. Sir. 35:26
- And send thy fear upon the nations, that have not sought after thee: that they may know that there is no God beside thee, and that they may shew forth thy wonders. Sir. 36:2
- That they may know thee, as we also have known thee, that there is no God beside thee, O Lord. Sir. 36:5
- Crush the head of the princes of the enemies that say: There is no other beside us. Sir. 36:12
- Gather together all the tribes of Jacob: that they may know that there is no God besides thee, and may declare thy great works: and thou shalt inherit them as from the beginning. Sir. 36:13
- Have mercy on thy people, upon whom thy name is invoked: and upon Israel, whom thou hast raised up to be thy firstborn. Sir. 36:14
- The belly will devour all meat, yet one is better than another. Sir. 36:20
- A woman will receive every man: yet one daughter is better than another. Sir. 36:23
- If she have a tongue that can cure, and likewise mitigate and shew mercy: her husband is not like other men. Sir. 36:25
- He that possesseth a good wife, beginneth a possession: she is a help like to himself, and a pillar of rest. Sir. 36:26
- Where there is no hedge, the possession shall be spoiled: and where there is no wife, he mourneth that is in want. Sir. 36:27
- ¤ Every friend will say: I also am his friend: but there is a friend, that is only a friend in name. Is not this a grief even to death? Sir. 37:1
- There is a companion who rejoiceth with his friend in his joys, but in the time of trouble, he will be against him. Sir. 37:4
- There is a companion who condoleth with his friend for his belly's sake, and he will take up a shield against the enemy. Sir. 37:5
- Every counsellor giveth out counsel, but there is one that is a counsellor for himself. Sir. 37:8
- Thy way is good; and then stand on the other side to see what shall befall thee. Sir. 37:11
- Treat not with a man without religion concerning holiness, nor with an unjust man concerning justice, nor with a woman touching her of whom she is jealous, nor with a coward concerning war, nor with a merchant about traffic, nor with a buyer of selling, nor with an envious man of giving thanks, Sir. 37:12
- Whose soul is according to thy own soul: and who, when thou shalt stumble in the dark, will be sorry for thee. Sir. 37:16
- And establish within thyself a heart of good counsel: for there is no other thing of more worth to thee than it. Sir. 37:17
- A wicked word shall change the heart: out of which four manner of things arise, good and evil, life and death: and the tongue is continually the ruler of them. There is a man that is subtle and a teacher of many, and yet is unprofitable to his own soul. Sir. 37:21
- A skilful man hath taught many, and is sweet to his own soul. Sir. 37:22
- He that speaketh sophistically, is hateful: he shall be destitute of every thing. Sir. 37:23
- Grace is not given him from the Lord: for he is deprived of all wisdom. Sir. 37:24
- There is a wise man that is wise to his own soul: and the fruit of his understanding is commendable. Sir. 37:25
- The life of a man is in the number of his days: but the days of Israel are innumerable. Sir. 37:28
- By surfeiting many have perished, but he that is temperate, shall prolong life. Sir. 37:34
- For all healing is from God, and he shall receive gifts of the king. Sir. 38:2
- The virtue of these things is come to the knowledge of men, and the most High hath given knowledge to men, that he may be honoured in his wonders. Sir. 38:6
- For the peace of God is over all the face of the earth. Sir. 38:8
- For there is a time when thou must fall into their hands: Sir. 38:13
- In withdrawing aside sorrow remaineth: and the substance of the poor is according to his heart. Sir. 38:20
- Forget it not: for there is no returning, and thou shalt do him no good, and shalt hurt thyself. Sir. 38:22
- When the dead is at rest, let his remembrance rest, and comfort him in the departing of his spirit. Sir. 38:24
- The wisdom of a scribe cometh by his time of leisure: and he that is less in action, shall receive wisdom. Sir. 38:25
- With what wisdom shall he be furnished that holdeth the plough, and that glorieth in the goad, that driveth the oxen therewith, and is occupied in their labours, and his whole talk is about the offspring of bulls? Sir. 38:26
- He shall give his mind to turn up furrows, and his care is to give the kine fodder. Sir. 38:27
- The noise of the hammer is always in his ears, and his eye is upon the pattern of the vessel he maketh. Sir. 38:30
- So doth the potter sitting at his work, turning the wheel about with his feet, who is always carefully set to his work, and maketh all his work by number: Sir. 38:32
- All these trust to their hands, and every one is wise in his own art. Sir. 38:35
- Without these a city is not built. Sir. 38:36
- For at his commandment favour is shewn, and there is no diminishing of his salvation. Sir. 39:23
- The works of all flesh are before him, and there is nothing hid from his eyes. Sir. 39:24
- He seeth from eternity to eternity, and there is nothing wonderful before him. Sir. 39:25
- There is no saying: What is this, or what is that? for all things shall be sought in their time. Sir. 39:26
- In his commandments they shall feast, and they shall be ready upon earth when need is, and when their time is come they shall not transgress his word. Sir. 39:37
- It is not to be said: This is worse than that: for all shall be well approved in their time. Sir. 39:40
- ¤ Great labour is created for all men, and a heavy yoke is upon the children of Adam from the day of their coming out of their mother's womb, until the day of their burial into the mother of all. Sir. 40:1
- From him that sitteth on a glorious throne, unto him that is humbled in earth and ashes: Sir. 40:3
- From him that weareth purple, and beareth the crown, even to him that is covered with rough linen: wrath, envy, trouble, unquietness, and the fear of death, continual anger, and strife, Sir. 40:4
- A little and as nothing is his rest, and afterward in sleep, as in the day of keeping watch. Sir. 40:6
- He is troubled in the vision of his heart, as if he had escaped in the day of battle. In the time of his safety he rose up, and wondereth that there is no fear. Sir. 40:7
- Grace is like a paradise in blessings, and mercy remaineth for ever. Sir. 40:17
- The life of a laborer that is content with what he hath, shall be sweet, and in it thou shalt find a treasure. Sir. 40:18
- Wine and music rejoice the heart, but the love of wisdom is above them both. Sir. 40:20
- The flute and the psaltery make a sweet melody, but a pleasant tongue is above them both. Sir. 40:21
- A friend and companion meeting together in season, but above them both is a wife with her husband. Sir. 40:23
- Gold and silver make the feet stand sure: but wise counsel is above them both. Sir. 40:25
- Riches and strength lift up the heart: but above these is the fear of the Lord. Sir. 40:26
- There is no want in the fear of the Lord, and it needeth not to seek for help. Sir. 40:27
- The fear of the Lord is like a paradise of blessing, and they have covered it above all glory. Sir. 40:28
- My son, in thy lifetime be not indigent: for it is better to die than to want. Sir. 40:29
- The life of him that looketh toward another man's table is not to be counted a life: for he feedeth his soul with another man's meat. Sir. 40:30
- ¤ O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that hath peace in his possessions! Sir. 41:1
- To a man that is at rest, and whose ways are prosperous in all things, and that is yet able to take meat! Sir. 41:2
- O death thy sentence is welcome to the man that is in need, and to him whose strength faileth: Sir. 41:3
- Who is in a decrepit age, and that is in care about all things, and to the distrustful that loseth patience! Sir. 41:4
- Fear not the sentence of death. Remember what things have been before thee, and what shall come after thee: this sentence is from the Lord upon all flesh. Sir. 41:5
- For among the dead there is no accusing of life. Sir. 41:7
- The mourning of men is about their body, but the name of the ungodly shall be blotted out. Sir. 41:14
- My children, keep discipline in peace: for wisdom that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen, what profit is there in them both? Sir. 41:17
- Better is the man that hideth his folly, than the man that hideth his wisdom. Sir. 41:18
- For it is not good to keep all shamefacedness: and all things do not please all men in opinion. Sir. 41:20
- ¤ Repeat not the word which thou hast heard, and disclose not the thing that is secret; so shalt thou be truly without confusion, and shalt find favour before all men: be not ashamed of any of these things, and accept no person to sin thereby: Sir. 42:1
- Sure keeping is good over a wicked wife. Sir. 42:6
- The father waketh for the daughter when no man knoweth, and the care for her taketh away his sleep, when she is young, lest she pass away the flower of her age, and when she is married, lest she should be hateful: Sir. 42:9
- For better is the iniquity of a man, than a woman doing a good turn, and a woman bringing shame and reproach. Sir. 42:14
- The sun giving light hath looked upon all things, and full of the glory of the Lord is his work. Sir. 42:16
- He hath beautified the glorious works of his wisdom: and he is from eternity to eternity, and to him nothing may be added, Sir. 42:21
- O how desirable are all his works, and what we can know is but as a spark! Sir. 42:23
- ¤ The firmament on high is his beauty, the beauty of heaven with its glorious shew. Sir. 43:1
- Great is the Lord that made him, and at his words he hath hastened his course. Sir. 43:5
- And the moon in all in her season, is for a declaration of times and a sign of the world. Sir. 43:6
- From the moon is the sign of the festival day, a light that decreaseth in her perfection. Sir. 43:7
- The month is called after her name, increasing wonderfully in her perfection. Sir. 43:8
- The glory of the stars is the beauty of heaven; the Lord enlighteneth the world on high. Sir. 43:10
- Look upon the rainbow, and bless him that made it: it is very beautiful in its brightness. Sir. 43:12
- And as the birds lighting upon the earth, he scattereth snow, and the falling thereof, is as the coming down of locusts. Sir. 43:19
- The eye admireth at the beauty of the whiteness thereof, and the heart is astonished at the shower thereof. Sir. 43:20
- The cold north wind bloweth, and the water is congealed into crystal; upon every gathering together of waters it shall rest, and shall clothe the waters as a breastplate. Sir. 43:22
- And it shall devour the mountains, and burn the wilderness, and consume all that is green as with fire. Sir. 43:23
- A present remedy of all is the speedy coming of a cloud, and a dew that meeteth it, by the heat that cometh, shall overpower it. Sir. 43:24
- At his word the wind is still, and with his thought he appeaseth the deep, and the Lord hath planted islands therein. Sir. 43:25
- Through him is established the end of their journey, and by his word all things are regulated. Sir. 43:28
- We shall say much, and yet shall want words: but the sum of our words is, He is all. Sir. 43:29
- What shall we be able to do to glorify him? for the Almighty himself is above all his works. Sir. 43:30
- The Lord is terrible, and exceeding great, and his power is admirable. Sir. 43:31
- Glorify the Lord as much as ever you can, for he will yet far exceed, and his magnificence is wonderful. Sir. 43:32
- Blessing the Lord, exalt him as much as you can; for he is above all praise. Sir. 43:33
- Who shall see him, and declare him? and who shall magnify him as he is from the beginning? Sir. 43:35
- And there are some, of whom there is no memorial: who are perished, as if they had never been: and are become as if they had never been born, and their children with them. Sir. 44:9
- ¤ Moses was beloved of God, and men: whose memory is in benediction. Sir. 45:1
- But he shall not inherit among the people in the land, and he hath no portion among the people: for he himself is his portion and inheritance. Sir. 45:27
- Phinees the son of Eleazar is the third in glory, by imitating him in the fear of the Lord: Sir. 45:28
- That the nations might know his power, that it is not easy to fight against God. And he followed the mighty one: Sir. 46:8
- That all the children of Israel might see, that it is good to obey the holy God. Sir. 46:12
- And at the name of the Lord God, whose surname is, God of Israel. Sir. 47:19
- And they called upon the Lord who is merciful, and spreading their hands, they lifted them up to heaven: and the holy Lord God quickly heard their voice. Sir. 48:22
- ¤ The memory of Josias is like the composition of a sweet smell made by the art of a perfumer: Sir. 49:1
- That Israel may believe that the mercy of God is with us, to deliver us in his days. Sir. 50:26
- There are two nations which my soul abhorreth: and the third is no nation: which I hate: Sir. 50:27
- Blessed is he that is conversant in these good things and he that layeth them up in his heart, shall be wise always. Sir. 50:30
- And submit your neck to the yoke, and let your soul receive discipline: for she is near at hand to be found. Sir. 51:34

- Neither is there at this time prince, or leader, or prophet, or holocaust, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place of first fruits before thee, Dan. A:15

- Nevertheless, leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and let it be tied with a band of iron and of brass, among the grass, that is without, and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let its portion be with the wild beasts in the grass of the earth. Dan. 4:15
- This is the decree by the sentence of the watchers, and the word and demand of the holy ones: till the living know, that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men: and he will give it to whomsoever it shall please him, and he will appoint the basest man over it. Dan. 4:17
- I, king Nabuchodonosor, saw this dream: thou, therefore, O Baltassar, tell me quickly the interpretation: for all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to declare the meaning of it to me: but thou art able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in thee. Dan. 4:18
- It is thou, O king, who art grown great, and become mighty: for thy greatness hath grown, and hath reached to heaven, and thy power unto the ends of the earth. Dan. 4:22
- This is the interpretation of the sentence of the most High, which is come upon my lord, the king. Dan. 4:24
- But whereas he commanded, that the stump of the roots thereof, that is, of the tree, should be left: thy kingdom shall remain to thee, after thou shalt have known that power is from heaven. Dan. 4:26
- And the king answered, and said: Is not this the great Babylon, which I have built, to be the seat of the kingdom, by the strength of my power, and in the glory of my excellence? Dan. 4:30

- And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing before him: for he doth according to his will, as well with the powers of heaven, as among the inhabitants of the earth: and there is none that can resist his hand, and say to him: Why hast thou done it? Dan. 4:35
- Therefore I, Nabuchodonosor, do now praise, and magnify, and glorify the King of heaven: because all his works are true, and his ways judgments, and them that walk in pride he is able to abase. Dan. 4:37
- There is a man in thy kingdom that hath the spirit of the holy gods in him: and in the days of thy father knowledge and wisdom were found in him: for king Nabuchodonosor, thy father, appointed him prince of the wise men, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers, thy father, I say, O king: Dan. 5:11
- Because a greater spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, and interpretation of dreams, and shewing of secrets, and resolving of difficult things, were found in him, that is, in Daniel: whom the king named Baltassar. Now, therefore, let Daniel be called for, and he will tell the interpretation. Dan. 5:12
- Wherefore, he hath sent the part of the hand which hath written this that is set down. Dan. 5:24
- And this is the writing that is written: MANE, THECEL, PHARES. Dan. 5:25

- So (as much as is in me) I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are at Rome. Rom. 1:15
- For I am not ashamed of the gospel. For it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth: to the Jew first and to the Greek. Rom. 1:16
- For the justice of God is revealed therein, from faith unto faith, as it is written: The just man liveth by faith. Rom. 1:17
- For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and injustice of those men that detain the truth of God in injustice: Rom. 1:18

- Because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified before him. For by the law is the knowledge of sin. Rom. 3:20

- Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, Rom. 3:24

- Where is then thy boasting? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. Rom. 3:27
- Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? yes, of the Gentiles also. Rom. 3:29
- For it is one God that justifieth circumcision by faith and uncircumcision through faith. Rom. 3:30
- ¤ What shall we say then that Abraham hath found, who is our father according to the flesh? Rom. 4:1
- Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned according to grace but according to debt. Rom. 4:4
- But to him that worketh not, yet believeth in him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reputed to justice, according to the purpose of the grace of God. Rom. 4:5
- Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin. Rom. 4:8
- And he might be the father of circumcision; not to them only that are of the circumcision, but to them also that follow the steps of the faith that is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham. Rom. 4:12
- For if they who are of the law be heirs, faith is made void: the promise is made of no effect. Rom. 4:14
- For the law worketh wrath. For where there is no law, neither is there transgression. Rom. 4:15
- Therefore is it of faith, that according to grace the promise might be firm to all the seed: not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all, Rom. 4:16
- (As it is written: I have made thee a father of many nations), before God, whom he believed: who quickeneth the dead and calleth those things that are not, as those that are. Rom. 4:17

- Now it is not written only for him, that it was reputed to him unto justice, Rom. 4:23
- And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost who is given to us. Rom. 5:5
- But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned, after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come. Rom. 5:14
- And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation: but grace is of many offences unto justification. Rom. 5:16
- For we are buried together with him by baptism into death: that, as Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life. Rom. 6:4
- Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin may be destroyed, to the end that we may serve sin no longer. Rom. 6:6
- For he that is dead is justified from sin. Rom. 6:7
- What fruit therefore had you then in those things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of them is death. Rom. 6:21
- For the wages of sin is death. But the grace of God, life everlasting in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom. 6:23
- For the woman that hath an husband, whilst her husband liveth is bound to the law. But if her husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. Rom. 7:2
- Therefore, whilst her husband liveth, she shall be called an adulteress, if she be with another man: but if her husband be dead, she is delivered from the law of her husband: so that she is not an adulteress, if she be with another man. Rom. 7:3
- Therefore, my brethren, you also are become dead to the law, by the body of Christ: that you may belong to another, who is risen again from the dead that we may bring forth fruit to God. Rom. 7:4
- What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? God forbid! But I do not know sin, but by the law. For I had not known concupiscence, if the law did not say: Thou shalt not covet. Rom. 7:7
- Wherefore the law indeed is holy: and the commandment holy and just and good. Rom. 7:12
- Was that then which is good made death unto me? God forbid! But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me: that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure. Rom. 7:13
- For we know that the law is spiritual. But I am carnal, sold under sin. Rom. 7:14
- If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good. Rom. 7:16
- Now then it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me. Rom. 7:17
- For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will is present with me: but to accomplish that which is good, I find not. Rom. 7:18
- Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me. Rom. 7:20
- I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me. Rom. 7:21
- But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind and captivating me in the law of sin that is in my members. Rom. 7:23
- ¤ There is now therefore no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh. Rom. 8:1
- For the wisdom of the flesh is death: but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace. Rom. 8:6
- Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God. For it is not subject to the law of God: neither can it be. Rom. 8:7
- But you are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Rom. 8:9
- And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin: but the spirit liveth, because of justification. Rom. 8:10
- For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for? Rom. 8:24
- What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us? Rom. 8:31
- Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God is he that justifieth: Rom. 8:33
- Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died: yea that is risen also again, who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Rom. 8:34
- (As it is written: For thy sake, we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.) Rom. 8:36
- Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom. 8:39
- Whose are the fathers and of whom is Christ, according to the flesh, who is over all things, God blessed for ever. Amen. Rom. 9:5
- That is to say, not they that are the children of the flesh are the children of God: but they that are the children of the promise are accounted for the seed. Rom. 9:8
- For this is the word of promise: According to this time will I come. And Sara shall have a son. Rom. 9:9
- As it is written: Jacob I have loved: but Esau I have hated. Rom. 9:13
- What shall we say then? Is there injustice with God? God forbid! Rom. 9:14
- So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. Rom. 9:16
- What then shall we say? That the Gentiles who followed not after justice have attained to justice, even the justice that is of faith. Rom. 9:30
- But Israel, by following after the law of justice, is not come unto the law of justice. Rom. 9:31
- As it is written: Behold I lay in Sion a stumbling-stone and a rock of scandal. And whosoever believeth in him shall not be confounded. Rom. 9:33
- ¤ Brethren, the will of my heart, indeed and my prayer to God is for them unto salvation. Rom. 10:1
- For the end of the law is Christ: unto justice to everyone that believeth. Rom. 10:4
- For Moses wrote that the justice which is of the law: The man that shall do it shall live by it. Rom. 10:5
- But the justice which is of faith, speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart: Who shall ascend into heaven? That is to bring Christ down; Rom. 10:6
- Or who shall descend into the deep? That is, to bring up Christ again from the dead. Rom. 10:7
- But what saith the scripture? The word is nigh thee; even in thy mouth and in thy heart. This is the word of faith, which we preach. Rom. 10:8
- For, with the heart, we believe unto justice: but, with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation. Rom. 10:10
- For there is no distinction of the Jew and the Greek: for the same is Lord over all, rich unto all that call upon him. Rom. 10:12
- And how shall they preach unless they be sent, as it is written: How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, of them that bring glad tidings of good things? Rom. 10:15
- But I say: Hath not Israel known? First, Moses saith: I will provoke you to jealousy by that which is not a nation: by a foolish nation I will anger you. Rom. 10:19
- But Isaias is bold, and saith: I was found by them that did not seek me. I appeared openly to them that asked not after me. Rom. 10:20
- Even so then, at this present time also, there is a remnant saved according to the election of grace. Rom. 11:5
- And if by grace, it is not now by works: otherwise grace is no more grace. Rom. 11:6
- As it is written: God hath given them the spirit of insensibility; eyes that they should not see and ears that they should not hear, until this present day. Rom. 11:8
- I say then: Have they so stumbled, that they should fall? God forbid! But by their offence salvation is come to the Gentiles, that they may be emulous of them. Rom. 11:11
- For if the firstfruit be holy, so is the lump also: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. Rom. 11:16
- And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again. Rom. 11:23
- For if thou were cut out of the wild olive tree, which is natural to thee; and, contrary to nature, wert grafted into the good olive tree: how much more shall they that are the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree? Rom. 11:24
- And so all Israel should be saved, as it is written: There shall come out of Sion, he that shall deliver and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob. Rom. 11:26
- And this is to them my covenant: when I shall take away their sins. Rom. 11:27
- And be not conformed to this world: but be reformed in the newness of your mind, that you may prove what is the good and the acceptable and the perfect will of God. Rom. 12:2
- For I say, by the grace that is given me, to all that are among you, not to be more wise than it behoveth to be wise, but to be wise unto sobriety and according as God hath divided to every one the measure of faith. Rom. 12:3
- And having different gifts, according to the grace that is given us, either prophecy, to be used according to the rule of faith; Rom. 12:6
- Let love be without dissimulation. Hating that which is evil, cleaving to that which is good, Rom. 12:9
- If it be possible, as much as is in you, have peace with all men. Rom. 12:18
- Revenge not yourselves, my dearly beloved; but give place unto wrath, for it is written: Revenge is mine, I will repay, saith the Lord. Rom. 12:19
- ¤ Let every soul be subject to higher powers. For there is no power but from God: and those that are ordained of God. Rom. 13:1
- For princes are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good: and thou shalt have praise from the same. Rom. 13:3
- For he is God's minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is God's minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil. Rom. 13:4
- Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour. Rom. 13:7
- For: Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not steal: Thou shalt not bear false witness: Thou shalt not covet. And if there be any other commandment, it is comprised in this word: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Rom. 13:9
- The love of our neighbour worketh no evil. Love therefore is the fulfilling of the law. Rom. 13:10
- And that, knowing the season, that it is now the hour for us to rise from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we believed. Rom. 13:11
- The night is passed And the day is at hand. Let us, therefore cast off the works of darkness and put on the armour of light. Rom. 13:12
- ¤ Now him that is weak in faith, take unto you: not in disputes about thoughts. Rom. 14:1
- For one believeth that he may eat all things: but he that is weak, let him eat herbs. Rom. 14:2
- Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? To his own lord he standeth or falleth. And he shall stand: for God is able to make him stand. Rom. 14:4
- For it is written: As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me and every tongue shall confess to God. Rom. 14:11
- I know, and am confident in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. Rom. 14:14
- For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink: but justice and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Rom. 14:17
- For he that in this serveth Christ pleaseth God and is approved of men. Rom. 14:18
- Destroy not the work of God for meat. All things indeed are clean: but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence. Rom. 14:20
- It is good not to eat flesh and not to drink wine: nor any thing whereby thy brother is offended or scandalized or made weak. Rom. 14:21
- Hast thou faith? Have it to thyself before God. Blessed is he that condemneth not himself in that which he alloweth. Rom. 14:22
- But he that discerneth, if he eat, is condemned; because not of faith. For all that is not of faith is sin. Rom. 14:23
- For Christ did not please himself: but, as it is written: The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell upon me. Rom. 15:3
- But that the Gentiles are to glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: Therefore will I confess to thee, O Lord, among the Gentiles and will sing to thy name. Rom. 15:9
- But I have written to you, brethren, more boldly in some sort, as it were putting you in mind, because of the grace which is given me from God, Rom. 15:15
- But as it is written: They to whom he was not spoken of shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand. Rom. 15:21
- ¤ And I commend to you Phebe, our sister, who is in the ministry of the church, that is in Cenchrae: Rom. 16:1
- And the church which is in their house. Salute Epenetus, my beloved: who is the firstfruits of Asia in Christ. Rom. 16:5
- For your obedience is published in every place. I rejoice therefore in you. But I would have you to be wise in good and simple in evil. Rom. 16:19
- Now to him that is able to establish you, according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret from eternity; Rom. 16:25
- (Which now is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the precept of the eternal God, for the obedience of faith) known among all nations: Rom. 16:26
- To the church of God that is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place of theirs and ours. 1 Cor. 1:2
- I give thanks to my God always for you, for the grace of God that is given you in Christ Jesus: 1 Cor. 1:4
- So that nothing is wanting to you in any grace, waiting for the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 1:7
- God is faithful: by whom you are called unto the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Cor. 1:9
- Is Christ divided? Was Paul then crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 1 Cor. 1:13
- For the word of the cross, to them indeed that perish, is foolishness: but to them that are saved, that is, to us, it is the power of God. 1 Cor. 1:18
- For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise: and the prudence of the prudent I will reject. 1 Cor. 1:19
- Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 1 Cor. 1:20
- For the foolishness of God is wiser than men: and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 1 Cor. 1:25
- But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom and justice and sanctification and redemption: 1 Cor. 1:30
- That, as it is written: He that glorieth may glory in the Lord. 1 Cor. 1:31
- But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory: 1 Cor. 2:7
- But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard: neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him. 1 Cor. 2:9
- For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God, no man knoweth, but the Spirit of God. 1 Cor. 2:11
- Now, we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit that is of God: that we may know the things that are given us from God. 1 Cor. 2:12
- But the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God. For it is foolishness to him: and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined. 1 Cor. 2:14
- But the spiritual man judgeth all things: and he himself is judged of no man. 1 Cor. 2:15
- For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal and walk you not according to man? 1 Cor. 3:3
- What then is Apollo and what is Paul? The ministers of him whom you have believed: and to every one as the Lord hath given. 1 Cor. 3:5
- Therefore, neither he that planteth is any thing, nor he that watereth: but God that giveth the increase. 1 Cor. 3:7
- According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation: and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 1 Cor. 3:10
- For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid: which is Christ Jesus. 1 Cor. 3:11
- Every man's work shall be manifest. For the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it shall be revealed in fire. And the fire shall try every man's work, of what sort it is. 1 Cor. 3:13
- But if any man violate the temple of God, him shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which you are. 1 Cor. 3:17
- For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: I will catch the wise in their own craftiness. 1 Cor. 3:19
- And you are Christ's. And Christ is God's. 1 Cor. 3:23
- Here now it is required among the dispensers that a man be found faithful. 1 Cor. 4:2
- But to me it is a very small thing to be judged by you or by man's day. But neither do I judge my own self. 1 Cor. 4:3
- For I am not conscious to myself of anything. Yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord. 1 Cor. 4:4
- But these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollo, for your sakes: that in us you may learn that one be not puffed up against the other for another, above that which is written. 1 Cor. 4:6
- For this cause have I sent to you Timothy, who is my dearest son and faithful in the Lord. Who will put you in mind of my ways, which are in Christ Jesus: as I teach every where in every church. 1 Cor. 4:17
- For the kingdom of God is not in speech, but in power. 1 Cor. 4:20
- ¤ It is absolutely heard that there is fornication among you and such fornication as the like is not among the heathens: that one should have his father's wife. 1 Cor. 5:1
- Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump? 1 Cor. 5:6
- Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed. 1 Cor. 5:7
- But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be a fornicator or covetous or a server of idols or a railer or a drunkard or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat. 1 Cor. 5:11
- I speak to your shame. Is it so that there is not among you any one wise man that is able to judge between his brethren? 1 Cor. 6:5
- Already indeed there is plainly a fault among you, that you have law suits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? 1 Cor. 6:7
- Meat for the belly and the belly for the meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord: and the Lord for the body. 1 Cor. 6:13
- Or know you not that he who is joined to a harlot is made one body? For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh. 1 Cor. 6:16
- But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit. 1 Cor. 6:17
- Fly fornication. Every sin that a man doth is without the body: but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. 1 Cor. 6:18
- Or know you not that your members are the temple of the Holy Ghost, who is in you, whom you have from God: and you are not your own? 1 Cor. 6:19
- ¤ Now concerning the things whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 1 Cor. 7:1
- But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I. 1 Cor. 7:8
- But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt. 1 Cor. 7:9
- For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife: and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband. Otherwise your children should be unclean: but now they are holy. 1 Cor. 7:14
- But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace. 1 Cor. 7:15
- Is any man called, being circumcised? Let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? Let him not be circumcised. 1 Cor. 7:18
- Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God. 1 Cor. 7:19
- For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ. 1 Cor. 7:22
- I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity: that it is good for a man so to be. 1 Cor. 7:26
- This therefore I say, brethren: The time is short. It remaineth, that they also who have wives be as if they had none: 1 Cor. 7:29
- But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord: how he may please God. 1 Cor. 7:32
- But he that is with a wife is solicitous for the things of the world: how he may please his wife. And he is divided. 1 Cor. 7:33
- And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord: that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world: how she may please her husband. 1 Cor. 7:34
- And this I speak for your profit, not to cast a snare upon you, but for that which is decent and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment. 1 Cor. 7:35
- But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will. He sinneth not if she marry. 1 Cor. 7:36
- A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth: but if her husband die, she is at liberty. Let her marry to whom she will: only in the Lord. 1 Cor. 7:39
- But if any man love God, the same is known by him. 1 Cor. 8:3
- But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world and that there is no God but one. 1 Cor. 8:4
- Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him: and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. 1 Cor. 8:6
- But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol, eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol: and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. 1 Cor. 8:7
- My defence with them that do examine me is this. 1 Cor. 9:3
- For it is written in the law of Moses: Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? 1 Cor. 9:9
- If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things? 1 Cor. 9:11
- But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die rather than that any man should make my glory void. 1 Cor. 9:15
- For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me: for a necessity lieth upon me. For woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel. 1 Cor. 9:16
- For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me. 1 Cor. 9:17
- What is my reward then? That preaching the gospel, I may deliver the gospel without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. 1 Cor. 9:18
- Neither become ye idolaters, as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play. 1 Cor. 10:7
- Let no temptation take hold on you, but such as is human. And God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able: but will make also with temptation issue, that you may be able to bear it. 1 Cor. 10:13
- The chalice of benediction which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? And the bread which we break, is it not the partaking of the body of the Lord? 1 Cor. 10:16
- What then? Do I say that what is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? Or that the idol is any thing? 1 Cor. 10:19
- Let no man seek his own, but that which is another's. 1 Cor. 10:24
- Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat: asking no question for conscience' sake. 1 Cor. 10:25
- The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof. 1 Cor. 10:26
- If any of them that believe not, invite you, and you be willing to go: eat of any thing that is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake. 1 Cor. 10:27
- Conscience I say, not thy own, but the other's. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience? 1 Cor. 10:29
- As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself but to many: that they may be saved. 1 Cor. 10:33
- But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ: and the head of the woman is the man: and the head of Christ is God. 1 Cor. 11:3
- But every woman praying or prophesying with her head not covered disgraceth her head: for it is all one as if she were shaven. 1 Cor. 11:5
- The man indeed ought not to cover his head: because he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man. 1 Cor. 11:7
- For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. 1 Cor. 11:8
- But yet neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord. 1 Cor. 11:11
- For as the woman is of the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things of God. 1 Cor. 11:12
- Doth not even nature itself teach you that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him? 1 Cor. 11:14
- But if a woman nourish her hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering. 1 Cor. 11:15
- When you come therefore together into one place, it is not now to eat the Lord's supper. 1 Cor. 11:20
- For every one taketh before his own supper to eat. And one indeed is hungry and another is drunk. 1 Cor. 11:21
- And giving thanks, broke and said: Take ye and eat: This is my body, which shall be delivered for you. This do for the commemoration of me. 1 Cor. 11:24
- In like manner also the chalice, after he had supped, saying: This chalice is the new testament in my blood. This do ye, as often as you shall drink, for the commemoration of me. 1 Cor. 11:25
- And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit. 1 Cor. 12:7
- To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: 1 Cor. 12:8
- For as the body is one and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body: So also is Christ. 1 Cor. 12:12
- For the body also is not one member, but many. 1 Cor. 12:14
- If the foot should say: Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body: Is it therefore not of the Body? 1 Cor. 12:15
- And if the ear should say: Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body: Is it therefore not of the body? 1 Cor. 12:16
- Charity is patient, is kind: charity envieth not, dealeth not perversely, is not puffed up, 1 Cor. 13:4
- Is not ambitious, seeketh not her own, is not provoked to anger, thinketh no evil: 1 Cor. 13:5
- But when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away. 1 Cor. 13:10
- And now there remain faith, hope, and charity, these three: but the greatest of these is charity. 1 Cor. 13:13
- And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification. 1 Cor. 14:5
- Even things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? 1 Cor. 14:7
- So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said? For you shall be speaking into the air. 1 Cor. 14:9
- There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world: and none is without voice. 1 Cor. 14:10
- For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth: but my understanding is without fruit. 1 Cor. 14:14
- What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding, I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding. 1 Cor. 14:15
- For thou indeed givest thanks well: but the other is not edified. 1 Cor. 14:17
- In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people: and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord. 1 Cor. 14:21
- But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not or an unlearned person, he is convinced of all: he is judged of all. 1 Cor. 14:24
- The secrets of his heart are made manifest. And so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed. 1 Cor. 14:25
- How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification. 1 Cor. 14:26
- For God is not the God of dissension, but of peace: as also I teach in all the churches of the saints. 1 Cor. 14:33
- Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak but to be subject, as also the law saith. 1 Cor. 14:34
- But if they would learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church. 1 Cor. 14:35
- Now if Christ be preached, that he arose again from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 1 Cor. 15:12
- But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen again. 1 Cor. 15:13
- And if Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain: and your faith is also vain. 1 Cor. 15:14
- For if the dead rise not again, neither is Christ risen again. 1 Cor. 15:16
- And if Christ be not risen again, your faith is vain: for you are yet in your sins. 1 Cor. 15:17
- But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruits of them that sleep: 1 Cor. 15:20
- For he hath put all things under his feet. And whereas he saith: All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him. 1 Cor. 15:27
- Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first. 1 Cor. 15:36
- All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes. 1 Cor. 15:39
- And there are bodies celestial and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial. 1 Cor. 15:40
- One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory. 1 Cor. 15:41
- So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption: it shall rise in incorruption. 1 Cor. 15:42
- It is sown in dishonour: it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness: it shall rise in power. 1 Cor. 15:43
- It is sown a natural body: it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, 1 Cor. 15:44
- As it is written: The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit. 1 Cor. 15:45
- Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural: afterwards that which is spiritual. 1 Cor. 15:46
- Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly. 1 Cor. 15:48
- And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory. 1 Cor. 15:54
- O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting? 1 Cor. 15:55
- Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law. 1 Cor. 15:56
- Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable: always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 1 Cor. 15:58
- For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many adversaries. 1 Cor. 16:9
- The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house, with whom I also lodge. 1 Cor. 16:19
- ‡ ¤ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother: to the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia: 2 Cor. 1:1
- Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer. 2 Cor. 1:6
- For our glory is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you. 2 Cor. 1:12
- Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not? 2 Cor. 1:17
- But God is faithful: for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not. 2 Cor. 1:18
- For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me and Sylvanus and Timothy, was not: It is and It is not. But, It is, was in him. 2 Cor. 1:19
- For all the promises of God are in him, It is. Therefore also by him, amen to God, unto our glory. 2 Cor. 1:20
- Now he that confirmeth us with you in Christ and that hath anointed us, is God: 2 Cor. 1:21
- For if I make you sorrowful, who is he then that can make me glad, but the same who is made sorrowful by me? 2 Cor. 2:2
- And I wrote this same to you: that I may not, when I come, have sorrow upon sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice: having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. 2 Cor. 2:3
- To him who is such a one, this rebuke is sufficient, which is given by many. 2 Cor. 2:6
- To the one indeed the odour of death unto death: but to the others the odour of life unto life. And for these things who is so sufficient? 2 Cor. 2:16
- You are our epistle, written in our hearts, which is known and read by all men: 2 Cor. 3:2
- Not that we are sufficient to think any thing of ourselves, as of ourselves: but our sufficiency is from God. 2 Cor. 3:5
- Now if the ministration of death, engraven with letters upon stones, was glorious (so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses, for the glory of his countenance), which is made void: 2 Cor. 3:7
- For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is in glory. 2 Cor. 3:11
- And not as Moses put a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel might not steadfastly look on the face of that which is made void. 2 Cor. 3:13
- But their senses were made dull. For, until this present day, the selfsame veil, in the reading of the old testament, remaineth not taken away (because in Christ it is made void). 2 Cor. 3:14
- But even until this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their heart. 2 Cor. 3:15
- Now the Lord is a Spirit. And where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 2 Cor. 3:17
- And if our gospel be also hid, it is hid to them that are lost, 2 Cor. 4:3
- In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of unbelievers, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine unto them. 2 Cor. 4:4
- But having the same spirit of faith, as it is written: I believed, for which cause I have spoken; we also believe. For which cause we speak also: 2 Cor. 4:13
- For which cause we faint not: but though our outward man is corrupted, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 2 Cor. 4:16
- For that which is at present momentary and light of our tribulation worketh for us above measure, exceedingly an eternal weight of glory. 2 Cor. 4:17
- For in this also we groan, desiring to be clothed upon with our habitation that is from heaven. 2 Cor. 5:2
- For we also, who are in this tabernacle, do groan, being burthened; because we would not be unclothed, but clothed upon, that that which is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 2 Cor. 5:4
- Now he that maketh us for this very thing is God, who hath given us the pledge of the Spirit, 2 Cor. 5:5
- For whether we be transported in mind, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for you. 2 Cor. 5:13
- For he saith: In an accepted time have I heard thee and in the day of salvation have I helped thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time: behold, now is the day of salvation. 2 Cor. 6:2
- Our mouth is open to you, O ye Corinthians: our heart is enlarged. 2 Cor. 6:11
- Great is my confidence for you: great is my glorying for you. I am filled with comfort: I exceedingly abound with joy in all our tribulation. 2 Cor. 7:4
- For the sorrow that is according to God worketh penance, steadfast unto salvation: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 2 Cor. 7:10
- And if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I have not been put to shame: but as we have spoken all things to you in truth, so also our boasting that was made to Titus is found a truth. 2 Cor. 7:14
- With much entreaty begging of us the grace and communication of the ministry that is done toward the saints. 2 Cor. 8:4
- And herein I give my advice: for this is profitable for you who have begun not only to do but also to be willing, a year ago. 2 Cor. 8:10
- Now therefore perform ye it also in deed: that as your mind is forward to be willing, so it may be also to perform, out of that which you have. 2 Cor. 8:11
- For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath: not according to that which he hath not. 2 Cor. 8:12
- As it is written: He that had much had nothing over; and he that had little had no want. 2 Cor. 8:15
- We have sent also with him the brother whose praise is in the gospel through all the churches. 2 Cor. 8:18
- And not that only: but he was also ordained by the churches companion of our travels, for this grace, which is administered by us, to the glory of the Lord and our determined will: 2 Cor. 8:19
- Avoiding this, lest any man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us. 2 Cor. 8:20
- Either for Titus, who is my companion and fellow labourer towards you, or our brethren, the apostles of the churches, the glory of Christ. 2 Cor. 8:23
- ¤ For concerning the ministry that is done towards the saints, it is superfluous for me to write unto you. 2 Cor. 9:1
- For I know your forward mind: for which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia also is ready from the year past. And your emulation hath provoked very many. 2 Cor. 9:2
- And God is able to make all grace abound in you: that ye always, having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work, 2 Cor. 9:8
- As it is written: He hath dispersed abroad, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever. 2 Cor. 9:9
- See the things that are according to outward appearance. If any man trust to himself, that he is Christ's let him think this again with himself, that as he is Christ's, so are we also. 2 Cor. 10:7
- (For his epistles indeed, say they, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak and his speech contemptible): 2 Cor. 10:10
- For not he who commendeth himself is approved: but he, whom God commendeth. 2 Cor. 10:18
- But I fear lest, as the serpent seduced Eve by his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted and fall from the simplicity that is in Christ. 2 Cor. 11:3
- The truth of Christ is in me, that this glorying shall not be broken off in me in the regions of Achaia. 2 Cor. 11:10
- Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers be transformed as the ministers of justice, whose end shall be according to their works. 2 Cor. 11:15
- Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is scandalized, and I am not on fire? 2 Cor. 11:29
- The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed for ever, knoweth that I lie not. 2 Cor. 11:31

- But knowing that man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we also believe in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ and not by the works of the law: because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified. Gal. 2:16
- But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ then the minister of sin? God forbid! Gal. 2:17
- As it is written: Abraham believed God: and it was reputed to him unto justice. Gal. 3:6

- For all the law is fulfilled in one word: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Gal. 5:14
- But the fruit of the Spirit is, charity, joy, peace, patience, benignity, goodness, longanimity, Gal. 5:22
- Mildness, faith, modesty, continency, chastity. Against such there is no law. Gal. 5:23
- For if any man think himself to be some thing, whereas he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. Gal. 6:3
- And let him that is instructed in the word communicate to him that instructeth him, in all good things. Gal. 6:6
- Be not deceived: God is not mocked. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. Gal. 6:7

- Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit: Eph. 3:5

- He that descended is the same also that ascended above all the heavens: that he might fill all things. Eph. 4:10
- But doing the truth in charity, we may in all things grow up in him who is the head, even Christ: Eph. 4:15
- Having their understanding darkened: being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their hearts. Eph. 4:18
- If so be that you have heard him and have been taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus: Eph. 4:21
- To put off, according to former conversation, the old man, who is corrupted according to the desire of error. Eph. 4:22

- He that stole, let him now steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have something to give to him that suffereth need. Eph. 4:28
- Let no evil speech proceed from your mouth: but that which is good, to the edification of faith: that it may administer grace to the hearers. Eph. 4:29

- But one in a certain place hath testified, saying: What is man, that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that thou visitest him? Heb. 2:6
- For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one. For which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying: Heb. 2:11
- Therefore because the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner hath been partaker of the same: that, through death, he might destroy him who had the empire of death, that is to say, the devil: Heb. 2:14
- For in that wherein he himself hath suffered and been tempted he is able to succour them also that are tempted. Heb. 2:18
- Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house. Heb. 3:2
- For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things is God. Heb. 3:4
- But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called to day, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. Heb. 3:13
- While it is said: To day, if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation. Heb. 3:15
- Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David; To day, after so long a time as it is above said: To day if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts. Heb. 4:7
- For he that is entered into his rest, the same also hath rested from his works, as God did from his. Heb. 4:10
- For the word of God is living and effectual and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow: and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Heb. 4:12
- Neither is there any creature invisible in his sight: but all things are naked and open to his eyes, to whom our speech is. Heb. 4:13
- ¤ For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God, that he may offer up gifts and sacrifices for sins: Heb. 5:1
- Who can have compassion on them that are ignorant and that err: because he himself also is compassed with infirmity. Heb. 5:2
- Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was. Heb. 5:4
- For every one that is a partaker of milk is unskilful in the word of justice: for he is a little child. Heb. 5:13
- But strong meat is for the perfect: for them who by custom have their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil. Heb. 5:14
- For it is impossible for those who were once illuminated, have tasted also the heavenly gift and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, Heb. 6:4
- For the earth, that drinketh in the rain which cometh often upon it and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is tilled, receiveth blessing from God. Heb. 6:7
- But that which bringeth forth thorns and briers is reprobate and very near unto a curse: whose end is to be burnt. Heb. 6:8
- For God is not unjust, that he should forget your work and the love which you have shewn in his name, you who have ministered and do minister to the saints. Heb. 6:10
- For men swear by one greater than themselves: and an oath for confirmation is the end of all their controversy. Heb. 6:16
- That by two immutable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have the strongest comfort, who have fled for refuge to hold fast the hope set before us. Heb. 6:18
- Where the forerunner Jesus is entered for us, made a high priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech. Heb. 6:20
- To whom also Abraham divided the tithes of all: who first indeed by interpretation is king of justice: and then also king of Salem, that is, king of peace: Heb. 7:2
- Now consider how great this man is, to whom also Abraham the patriarch gave tithes out of the principal things. Heb. 7:4
- And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also came out of the loins of Abraham. Heb. 7:5
- But he, whose pedigree is not numbered among them, received tithes of Abraham and blessed him that had the promises. Heb. 7:6
- And without all contradiction, that which is less is blessed by the better. Heb. 7:7
- For the priesthood being translated, it is necessary that a translation also be made of the law, Heb. 7:12
- For he of whom these things are spoken is of another tribe, of which no one attended on the altar. Heb. 7:13
- For it is evident that our Lord sprung out of Juda: in which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priests. Heb. 7:14
- And it is yet far more evident: if according to the similitude of Melchisedech there ariseth another priest, Heb. 7:15
- Who is made, not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life. Heb. 7:16
- There is indeed a setting aside of the former commandment, because of the weakness and unprofitableness thereof: Heb. 7:18
- And inasmuch as it is not without an oath Heb. 7:20
- By so much is Jesus made a surety of a better testament. Heb. 7:22
- Whereby he is able also to save for ever them that come to God by him; always living to make intercession for us. Heb. 7:25
- For the law maketh men priests, who have infirmity: but the word of the oath (which was since the law) the Son who is perfected for evermore. Heb. 7:28
- ¤ Now of the things which we have spoken, this is the sum: We have such an high priest who is set on the right hand of the throne of majesty in the heavens, Heb. 8:1
- For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is necessary that he also should have some thing to offer. Heb. 8:3
- But now he hath obtained a better ministry, by how much also he is a mediator of a better testament which is established on better promises. Heb. 8:6
- For this is the testament which I will make to the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will give my laws into their mind: and in their heart will I write them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people. Heb. 8:10
- Now in saying a new, he hath made the former old. And that which decayeth and groweth old is near its end. Heb. 8:13
- For there was a tabernacle made the first, wherein were the candlesticks and the table and the setting forth of loaves, which is called the Holy. Heb. 9:2
- And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies: Heb. 9:3
- And over it were the cherubims of glory overshadowing the propitiatory: of which it is not needful to speak now particularly. Heb. 9:5
- Which is a parable of the time present: according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered, which cannot, as to the conscience, make him perfect that serveth, only in meats and in drinks, Heb. 9:9
- But Christ, being come an high Priest of the good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hand, that is, not of this creation: Heb. 9:11
- And therefore he is the mediator of the new testament: that by means of his death for the redemption of those transgressions which were under the former testament, they that are called may receive the promise of eternal inheritance. Heb. 9:15
- For where there is a testament the death of the testator must of necessity come in. Heb. 9:16
- For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is as yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth. Heb. 9:17
- Saying: This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. Heb. 9:20
- And almost all things, according to the law, are cleansed with blood: and without shedding of blood there is no remission. Heb. 9:22
- It is necessary therefore that the patterns of heavenly things should be cleansed with these: but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. Heb. 9:23
- For Jesus is not entered into the Holies made with hands, the patterns of the true: but into Heaven itself, that he may appear now in the presence of God for us. Heb. 9:24
- And as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this the judgment: Heb. 9:27
- But in them there is made a commemoration of sins every year: Heb. 10:3
- For it is impossible that with the blood of oxen and goats sin should be taken away. Heb. 10:4
- Then said I: Behold I come: in the head of the book it is written of me: that I should do thy will, O God. Heb. 10:7
- And this is the testament which I will make unto them after those days, saith the Lord. I will give my laws in their hearts and on their minds will I write them: Heb. 10:16
- Now, where there is a remission of these, there is no more an oblation for sin. Heb. 10:18
- A new and living way which he hath dedicated for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh: Heb. 10:20
- Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering (for he is faithful that hath promised): Heb. 10:23
- For if we sin wilfully after having the knowledge of the truth, there is now left no sacrifice for sins: Heb. 10:26
- It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Heb. 10:31
- For patience is necessary for you: that, doing the will of God, you may receive the promise. Heb. 10:36
- For yet a little and a very little while, and he that is to come will come and will not delay. Heb. 10:37
- ¤ Now, faith is the substance of things to be hoped for, the evidence of things that appear not. Heb. 11:1
- But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that cometh to God must believe that he is: and is a rewarder to them that seek him. Heb. 11:6
- By faith Noe, having received an answer concerning those things which as yet were not seen, moved with fear, framed the ark for the saving of his house: by the which he condemned the world and was instituted heir of the justice which is by faith. Heb. 11:7
- By faith he that is called Abraham obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing whither he went. Heb. 11:8
- For he looked for a city that hath foundations: whose builder and maker is God. Heb. 11:10
- For which cause there sprung even from one (and him as good as dead) as the stars of heaven in multitude and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable. Heb. 11:12
- But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city. Heb. 11:16
- Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Whereupon also he received him for a parable. Heb. 11:19
- By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: for he endured, as seeing him that is invisible. Heb. 11:27
- Persevere under discipline. God dealeth with you as with his sons. For what son is there whom the father doth not correct? Heb. 12:7
- For our God is a consuming fire. Heb. 12:29
- So that we may confidently say: The Lord is my helper: I will not fear what man shall do to me. Heb. 13:6
- Be not led away with various and strange doctrines. For it is best that the heart be established with grace, not with meats: which have not profited those that walk in them. Heb. 13:9
- For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holies by the high priest for sin are burned without the camp. Heb. 13:11
- For, we have not here a lasting city: but we seek one that is to come. Heb. 13:14
- By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise always to God, that is to say, the fruit of lips confessing to his name. Heb. 13:15
- And do not forget to do good and to impart: for by such sacrifices God's favour is obtained. Heb. 13:16
- Obey your prelates and be subject to them. For they watch as being to render an account of your souls: that they may do this with joy and not with grief. For this is not expedient for you. Heb. 13:17
- Fit you in all goodness, that you may do his will; doing in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen. Heb. 13:21
- Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty: with whom (if he come shortly) I will see you. Heb. 13:23
- But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea, which is moved and carried about by the wind. Jas. 1:6
- A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways. Jas. 1:8
- Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for, when he hath been proved, he shall receive the crown of life which God hath promised to them that love him. Jas. 1:12
- Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted by God. For God is not a tempter of evils: and he tempteth no man. Jas. 1:13
- But every man is tempted by his own concupiscence, being drawn away and allured. Jas. 1:14
- Then, when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death. Jas. 1:15
- Every best gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change nor shadow of alteration. Jas. 1:17
- Wherefore, casting away all uncleanness and abundance of naughtiness, with meekness receive the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls. Jas. 1:21
- And if any man think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue but deceiving his own heart, this man's religion is vain. Jas. 1:26
- Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation and to keep one's self unspotted from this world. Jas. 1:27
- And you have respect to him that is clothed with the fine apparel and shall say to him: Sit thou here well: but say to the poor man: Stand thou there, or: Sit under my footstool: Jas. 2:3
- Do not they blaspheme the good name that is invoked upon you? Jas. 2:7
- And whosoever shall keep the whole law, but offend in one point, is become guilty of all. Jas. 2:10
- So faith also, if it have not works, is dead in itself. Jas. 2:17
- Thou believest that there is one God. Thou dost well: the devils also believe and tremble. Jas. 2:19
- But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Jas. 2:20
- Do you see that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only? Jas. 2:24
- For even as the body without the spirit is dead: so also faith without works is dead. Jas. 2:26
- For in many things we all offend. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man. He is able also with a bridle to lead about the whole body. Jas. 3:2
- Even so the tongue is indeed a little member and boasteth great things. Behold how small a fire kindleth a great wood. Jas. 3:5
- And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is placed among our members, which defileth the whole body and inflameth the wheel of our nativity, being set on fire by hell. Jas. 3:6
- For every nature of beasts and of birds and of serpents and of the rest is tamed and hath been tamed, by the nature of man. Jas. 3:7
- Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge, among you? Let him shew, by a good conversation, his work in the meekness of wisdom. Jas. 3:13
- For this is not wisdom, descending from above: but earthly, sensual, devilish. Jas. 3:15
- For where envying and contention is: there is inconstancy and every evil work. Jas. 3:16
- But the wisdom that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation. Jas. 3:17
- And the fruit of justice is sown in peace, to them that make peace. Jas. 3:18
- Adulterers, know you not that the friendship of this world is the enemy of God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of this world becometh an enemy of God. Jas. 4:4
- There is one lawgiver and judge, that is able to destroy and to deliver. Jas. 4:12
- Whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is a vapour which appeareth for a little while and afterwards shall vanish away. Jas. 4:14
- But now you rejoice in your arrogancies. All such rejoicing is wicked. Jas. 4:16
- To him therefore who knoweth to do good and doth it not, to him it is sin. Jas. 4:17
- Your gold and silver is cankered: and the rust of them shall be for a testimony against you and shall eat your flesh like fire. You have stored up to yourselves wrath against the last days. Jas. 5:3
- Be you therefore also patient and strengthen your hearts: for the coming of the Lord is at hand. Jas. 5:8
- Behold, we account them blessed who have endured. You have heard of the patience of Job and you have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is merciful and compassionate. Jas. 5:11
- Is any of you sad? Let him pray: Is he cheerful in mind? Let him sing. Jas. 5:13
- Is any man sick among you? Let him bring in the priests of the church and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. Jas. 5:14
- That the trial of your faith (much more precious than gold which is tried by the fire) may be found unto praise and glory and honour at the appearing of Jesus Christ. 1 Pet. 1:7
- Wherefore, having the loins of your mind girt up, being sober, trust perfectly in the grace which is offered you in the revelation of Jesus Christ. 1 Pet. 1:13
- But according to him that hath called you, who is holy, be you also in all manner of conversation holy: 1 Pet. 1:15
- Because it is written: You shall be holy, for I am holy. 1 Pet. 1:16
- For all flesh is as grass and all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass is withered and the flower thereof is fallen away. 1 Pet. 1:24
- But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel hath been preached unto you. 1 Pet. 1:25
- If so be you have tasted that the Lord is sweet. 1 Pet. 2:3
- Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him shall not be confounded. 1 Pet. 2:6
- To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner: 1 Pet. 2:7
- For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: 1 Pet. 2:15
- For this is thankworthy: if, for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully. 1 Pet. 2:19
- For what glory is it, if, committing sin and being buffeted for it, you endure? But if doing well you suffer patiently: this is thankworthy before God. 1 Pet. 2:20
- But the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptibility of a quiet and a meek spirit which is rich in the sight of God. 1 Pet. 3:4
- And who is he that can hurt you, if you be zealous of good? 1 Pet. 3:13
- But sanctify the Lord Christ in your hearts, being ready always to satisfy every one that asketh you a reason of that hope which is in you. 1 Pet. 3:15
- For it is better doing well (if such be the will of God) to suffer than doing ill. 1 Pet. 3:17
- Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. 1 Pet. 3:20
- Who is on the right hand of God, swallowing down death that we might be made heirs of life everlasting: being gone into heaven, the angels and powers and virtues being made subject to him. 1 Pet. 3:22
- For the time past is sufficient to have fulfilled the will of the Gentiles, for them who have walked in riotousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings and unlawful worshipping of idols. 1 Pet. 4:3
- Who shall render account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. 1 Pet. 4:5
- But the end of all is at hand. Be prudent therefore and watch in prayers. 1 Pet. 4:7
- If any man speak, let him speak, as the words of God. If any man minister, let him do it, as of the power which God administereth: that in all things God may be honoured through Jesus Christ: to whom is glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Pet. 4:11
- Dearly beloved, think not strange the burning heat which is to try you: as if some new thing happened to you. 1 Pet. 4:12
- If you be reproached for the name of Christ, you shall be blessed: for that which is of the honour, glory and power of God, and that which is his Spirit resteth upon you. 1 Pet. 4:14
- For the time is, that judgment should begin at the house of God. And if at first at us, what shall be the end of them that believe not the gospel of God? 1 Pet. 4:17
- ¤ The ancients therefore that are among you, I beseech who am myself also an ancient and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as also a partaker of that glory which is to be revealed in time to come: 1 Pet. 5:1
- Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking care of it, not by constraint but willingly, according to God: not for filthy lucre's sake but voluntarily: 1 Pet. 5:2
- By Sylvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I think, I have written briefly: beseeching and testifying that this is the true grace of God, wherein you stand. 1 Pet. 5:12
- The church that is in Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you. And so doth my son, Mark. 1 Pet. 5:13
- By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises: that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature: flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world. 2 Pet. 1:4
- For he that hath not these things with him is blind and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 2 Pet. 1:9
- Being assured that the laying away of this my tabernacle is at hand, according as our Lord Jesus Christ also hath signified to me. 2 Pet. 1:14
- For he received from God the Father honour and glory, this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear ye him. 2 Pet. 1:17
- Understanding this first: That no prophecy of scripture is made by private interpretation. 2 Pet. 1:20
- These are fountains without water and clouds tossed with whirlwinds, to whom the mist of darkness is reserved. 2 Pet. 2:17
- Promising them liberty, whereas they themselves are the slaves of corruption. For by whom a man is overcome, of the same also he is the slave. 2 Pet. 2:19
- For if, flying from the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they be again entangled in them and overcome: their latter state is become unto them worse than the former. 2 Pet. 2:20
- For, that of the true proverb has happened to them: The dog is returned to his vomit; and: The sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. 2 Pet. 2:22
- Saying: Where is his promise or his coming? For since the time that the fathers slept, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 2 Pet. 3:4
- But of this one thing be not ignorant, my beloved, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 2 Pet. 3:8
- And this is the declaration which we have heard from him and declare unto you: That God is light and in him there is no darkness. 1 Jn. 1:5
- But if we walk in the light, as he also is in the light, we have fellowship one with another: And the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1 Jn. 1:7
- If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 1 Jn. 1:8
- If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all iniquity. 1 Jn. 1:9
- If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar: and his word is not in us. 1 Jn. 1:10
- And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world. 1 Jn. 2:2
- He who saith that he knoweth him and keepeth not his commandments is a liar: and the truth is not in him. 1 Jn. 2:4
- But he that keepeth his word, in him in very deed the charity of God is perfected. And by this we know that we are in him. 1 Jn. 2:5
- Dearly beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard. 1 Jn. 2:7
- Again a new commandment I write unto you: which thing is true both in him and in you, because the darkness is passed and the true light now shineth. 1 Jn. 2:8
- He that saith he is in the light and hateth his brother is in darkness even until now. 1 Jn. 2:9
- He that loveth his brother abideth in the light: and there is no scandal in him. 1 Jn. 2:10
- But he that hateth his brother is in darkness and walketh in darkness and knoweth not whither he goeth: because the darkness hath blinded his eyes. 1 Jn. 2:11
- I write unto you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, babes, because you have known the Father. 1 Jn. 2:13
- Love not the world, nor the things which are in the world. If any man love the world, the charity of the Father is not in him. 1 Jn. 2:15
- For all that is in the world is the concupiscence of the flesh and the concupiscence of the eyes and the pride of life, which is not of the Father but is of the world. 1 Jn. 2:16
- Little children, it is the last hour: and as you have heard that Antichrist cometh, even now there are become many Antichrists: whereby we know that it is the last hour. 1 Jn. 2:18
- I have not written to you as to them that know not the truth, but as to them that know it: and that no lie is of the truth. 1 Jn. 2:21
- Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father and the Son. 1 Jn. 2:22
- And this is the promise which he hath promised us, life everlasting. 1 Jn. 2:25
- And as for you, let the unction, which you have received from him abide in you. And you have no need that any man teach you: but as his unction teacheth you of all things and is truth and is no lie. And as it hath taught you, abide in him. 1 Jn. 2:27
- If you know that he is just, know ye, that every one also who doth justice is born of him. 1 Jn. 2:29
- Dearly beloved, we are now the sons of God: and it hath not yet appeared what we shall be. We know that when he shall appear we shall be like to him: because we shall see him as he is. 1 Jn. 3:2
- And every one that hath this hope in him sanctifieth himself, as he also is holy. 1 Jn. 3:3
- Whosoever committeth sin committeth also iniquity. And sin is iniquity. 1 Jn. 3:4
- And you know that he appeared to take away our sins: and in him there is no sin. 1 Jn. 3:5
- Little children, let no man deceive you. He that doth justice is just, even as he is just. 1 Jn. 3:7
- He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God appeared, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 Jn. 3:8
- Whosoever is born of God committeth not sin: for his seed abideth in him. And he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 Jn. 3:9
- In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil. Whosoever is not just is not of God, nor he that loveth not his brother. 1 Jn. 3:10
- For this is the declaration which you have heard from the beginning, that you should love one another. 1 Jn. 3:11
- Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself. 1 Jn. 3:15
- For if our heart reprehend us, God is greater than our heart and knoweth all things. 1 Jn. 3:20
- And this is his commandment: That we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as he hath given commandment unto us. 1 Jn. 3:23
- By this is the spirit of God known. Every spirit which confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 1 Jn. 4:2
- And every spirit that dissolveth Jesus is not of God. And this is Antichrist, of whom you have heard that he cometh: and he is now already in the world. 1 Jn. 4:3
- You are of God, little children, and have overcome him. Because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 Jn. 4:4
- We are of God. He that knoweth God heareth us. He that is not of God heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. 1 Jn. 4:6
- Dearly beloved, let us love one another: for charity is of God. And every one that loveth is born of God and knoweth God. 1 Jn. 4:7
- He that loveth not knoweth not God: for God is charity. 1 Jn. 4:8
- In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins. 1 Jn. 4:10

- And him thou didst command to loue thy way, and he transgressed it, & forth with thou didst institute death in him, and in his posteritie, and there were borne nations, and tribes, and peoples, and kindreds, wherof there is no number. 4 Esd. 3:7
- And it was made a permanent infirmitie, and the law with the hart of the people, with the wickednes of the roote, and that which is good departed, and the wicked remayned. 4 Esd. 3:22
- And I sayd: It is so my Lord. And he answered me, & sayd: I am sent to shew thee three wayes, & to propose to thee three similitudes. 4 Esd. 4:3
- Of the which if thou shalt declare to me one of them, I also wil shew thee the way which thou desirest to see, and wil teach thee whence a wicked hart is. 4 Esd. 4:4
- And I sayd, Speak my Lord. And he sayd to me: Goe, wey me the weight of the fire, or measure me the blast of the winde, or cal me backe the day that is past. 4 Esd. 4:5
- And I answered, and sayd: Verely they deuised a vayne deuise. For the earth is geuen to the wood, and a place to the sea to carie her waues. 4 Esd. 4:19
- For as the earth is geuen to the wood, and the sea for the waues therof: so they that inhabite vpon the earth, can vnderstand onlie the thinges that are vpon the earth: and they vpon the heauens, the thinges that are aboue the height of the heauens. 4 Esd. 4:21
- For I meant not to aske of thy superiour thinges, but of those that passe by vs dayly. For what cause Israel is geuen into reproche to the gentiles, the people whom thou hast loued, is geuen to impious tribes, & the law of our fathers is brought to destruction, & the written ordinances are no where: 4 Esd. 4:23
- and we haue passed out of the world, as locustes, and our life is astonishment and dreade, and we are not worthie to obtaine mercie. 4 Esd. 4:24
- But what wil he doe to his name that is inuocated vpon vs? and of these thinges I did aske. 4 Esd. 4:25
- and can not comprehend the thinges which in times to come are promised to the iust: because this world is ful of iniustice and infirmities. 4 Esd. 4:27
- But conerning the thinges that thou demandest I wil tel thee: for the euil is sowed, and the destruction therof is not yet come. 4 Esd. 4:28
- If then that which is sowen be not turned vp, and the place depart where the euil is sowen, that shal not come where the good is sowen. 4 Esd. 4:29
- And he answered me, and sayd to me, Hasten not aboue the Highest. For thou doest hasten in vaine to be aboue him, for thy excesse is much. 4 Esd. 4:34
- For as she that is: In trauail maketh hast, to escape the necessitie of trauailing: so this also hasteneth to render those thinges which are commended to it. 4 Esd. 4:42
- shew mee if there be more to come then is passed, or more things haue passed, then are to come. 4 Esd. 4:45
- What passed, I know: but what is to come, I know not. 4 Esd. 4:46
- And it came to passe in the second night, and Salathiel the prince of the people came to me, and sayd to me: Where wast thou? and why is thy countenance heauie? 4 Esd. 5:16
- Knowest thou not that Isreal is committed to thee in the countrie of their transmigration? 4 Esd. 5:17
- And I sayd: Lord Dominatour, for who is there that can know these thinges, but he that hath not his habitation with men? 4 Esd. 5:38
- And I asked, and sayd: Wheras thou hast now geuen me a way, I wil speake before thee: for our mother, of whom thou toldest me, yet she is yong: now draweth nigh to old age. 4 Esd. 5:50
- for the end of this world is Esau, and the begynning of the next Iacob. 4 Esd. 6:9
- Therfore when it speaketh be not thou afrayd, because of the end is the word, and the fundation of the earth vnderstood, 4 Esd. 6:15
- for concerning them the word trembleth and is moued, for it knoweth that their end must be changed. 4 Esd. 6:16
- For thy voice is heard before the Highest. For the strong hath sene thy direction, and hath fore sene the chastitie which thou hast had from thy youth: 4 Esd. 6:32
- And I sayd: Speake my God. And he sayd to me: The sea is set in a large place, that it might be deepe and wide: 4 Esd. 7:3
- Also an other thing: A citie is built, and set in a plaine place, and it is ful of al goodes. 4 Esd. 7:6
- and there is one onlie pathe set betwen them, that is, betwen the fire and the water, so that the pathe can not conteyne, but onlie a mans steppe. 4 Esd. 7:8
- And I sayd: So Lord. And he sayd to me, So it is: Israel also a part. 4 Esd. 7:10
- And why hast thou not taken in thy hart that which is to come, but that which is present? 4 Esd. 7:16
- And he sayd to me: There is no iudge aboue God, nor that vnderstandeth aboue the Highest. 4 Esd. 7:19
- For manie present doe perish, because the law of God which was set before, is neglected. 4 Esd. 7:20
- Behold the time shal come, and it shal be when the signes shal come, which I haue foretold thee, and the bride shal appeare, and appearing she shal be shewed that now is hid with the earth: 4 Esd. 7:26
- and euerie one that is deliuered from the foresaid euils, he shal see my meruelous thinges. 4 Esd. 7:27
- Look on this side and on that: here is delight and rest, and there fire and torments. Thus shall he speak unto them in the day of judgement: 4 Esd. 7:38
- This is a day that hath neither sun, nor moon, nor stars, 4 Esd. 7:39
- This is my judgement and the ordinance thereof; but to thee only have I shewed these things. 4 Esd. 7:44
- But as touching them for whom my prayer was made, what shall I say? for who is there of them that be alive that hath not sinned, and who of the sons of men that hath not transgressed thy covenant? 4 Esd. 7:46
- but silver is more abundant than gold, and brass than silver, and iron than brass, lead than iron, and clay than lead. 4 Esd. 7:56
- Judge thou therefore which things are precious and to be desired, whatso is abundant or what is rare. 4 Esd. 7:57
- And I said, O Lord that bearest rule, that which is plentiful is of less worth, for that which is more rare is more precious. 4 Esd. 7:58
- And he answered me, and said, Weigh within thyself the things that thou hast thought, for he that hath what is hard to get rejoiceth over him that hath what is plentiful. 4 Esd. 7:59
- So also is the judgement which I have promised: for I will rejoice over the few that shall be saved, inasmuch as these are they that have made my glory now to prevail, and of whom my name is now named. 4 Esd. 7:60
- And I answered and said, O thou earth, wherefore hast thou brought forth, if the mind is made out of dust, like as all other created things? 4 Esd. 7:62
- For it is far better with them than with us; for they look not for judgement, neither do they know of torments or of salvation promised unto them after death. 4 Esd. 7:66
- For concerning death the teaching is: When the determinate sentence hath gone forth from the Most High that a man should die, as the spirit leaveth the body to return again to him who gave it, it adoreth the glory of the Most High first of all. 4 Esd. 7:78
- The seventh way, which is more grievous than all the aforesaid ways, because they shall pine away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall be withered up by fears, seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they have sinned whilst living, and before whom they shall be judged in the last times. 4 Esd. 7:87
- Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from the corruptible vessel. 4 Esd. 7:88
- Wherefore this is the teaching concerning them: 4 Esd. 7:90
- The fifth order, they rejoice, seeing how they have now escaped from that which is corruptible, and how they shall inherit that which is to come, while they see moreover the straitness and the painfulness from which they have been delivered, and the large room which they shall receive with joy and immortality. 4 Esd. 7:96
- The sixth order, when it is shewed unto them how their face shall shine as the sun, and how they shall be made like unto the light of the stars, being henceforth incorruptible. 4 Esd. 7:97
- The seventh order, which is greater than all the aforesaid orders, because they shall rejoice with confidence, and because they shall be bold without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom in their lifetime they served, and from whom they shall receive their reward in glory. 4 Esd. 7:98
- This is the order of the souls of the just, as from henceforth is announced unto them, and aforesaid are the ways of torture which they that would not give heed shall suffer from henceforth. 4 Esd. 7:99
- And he answered me, and said, Since thou hast found favour in my sight, I will shew thee this also: The day of judgement is a day of decision, and displayeth unto all the seal of truth; even as now a father sendeth not his son, or a son his father, or a master his slave, or a friend him that is most dear, that in his stead he may be sick, or sleep, or eat, or be healed: 4 Esd. 7:104
- And he answered me and sayd: This present world is not the end, much glorie remaineth in it: for this cause they prayed for the impotent. 4 Esd. 7:112
- For the day of iudgement shal be the end of this time, and the beginning of the immortalitie to come, wherein corruption is past: 4 Esd. 7:113
- intemperance is dissolued, incredulitie is cut of: and iustice hath increased, truth is strong. 4 Esd. 7:114
- and sayd: This is my word the first and the last, that it had bene better not to geue the earth to Adam, or when he had now geuen it, to restraine him that he should not sinne. 4 Esd. 7:116
- And that euerlasting hope is foretold vs: but we most wicked are become vayne? 4 Esd. 7:120
- And that the glorie of the Highest is reserued to protect them that haue slowly conuerst: but we haue walked in most wicked wayes. 4 Esd. 7:122
- And that paradise shal be shewed, whose fruite continueth incorrupted, wherin is securitie and remedie: 4 Esd. 7:123
- And he answered, and sayd: This is the cogitation of the battel which man shal fight, who is borne vpon the earth, 4 Esd. 7:127
- for this is the life which Moyses spake of when he liued, to the people, saying: Choose vnto thee life, that thou mayst liue. (Deut. 30:19) 4 Esd. 7:129
- Because there should not be sorow vnto their perdition, as there shal be ioy vpon them, to whom saluation is perswaded. 4 Esd. 7:131
- And I answered, and sayd: I know Lord, that the Highest is called merciful in that, that he hath mercie on them which are not yet come into the world, 4 Esd. 7:132
- and he is long suffering, because he sheweth long sufferance to them that haue sinned, as it were with their owne workes: 4 Esd. 7:134
- and he is bountiful, because he wil geue according to exigentes: 4 Esd. 7:135
- And I wil speake a similitude Esdras before thee. For as thou shalt aske the earth, and it wil tel thee, that it wil geue much more earth wherof earthen worke may be made, but a litle dust wherof gold is made: so also is the act of this present world. 4 Esd. 8:2
- And I answered, and sayd: Then o soul swallow vp the sense, and deuoure that which is wise. 4 Esd. 8:4
- For thou art agred to obey, and willing to prophecie. For there is no space geuen thee but only to liue. 4 Esd. 8:5
- and as now the bodie made in the matrice, and thou doest geue the members, thy creature is preserued in fire & water: and nine monethes thy workemanship doth suffer thy creature that is created in it: 4 Esd. 8:8
- and it self that keepeth, and that which is kept, both shal be preserued: and the matrice being preserued rendreth agayne at some time the thinges that are growen in it. 4 Esd. 8:9
- For thou hast commanded of the members, that is the brestes to geue milke vnto the fruite of the brestes, 4 Esd. 8:10
- that the thing which is made, may be nourished til a certayne time, and afterward thou mayst dispose him to thy mercie. 4 Esd. 8:11
- If then thou wilt destroy him that is made with so great labours: it is easie by thy commandment to be ordayned, that also which was made, might be preserued. 4 Esd. 8:14
- and whose throne is inestimable, and glorie incomprehensible: by whom standeth an host of Angels with trembling, 4 Esd. 8:21
- whose keping is turned in wynde and fire, thou whose word is true, and sayings premanent: 4 Esd. 8:22
- whose commandment is strong, and disposition terrible: whose looke dryeth vp the depthes, and indignation maketh the mountaynes to melt, and truth doth testifie. 4 Esd. 8:23
- For what is man, that thou art angrie with him: or the corruptible kinde, that thou art so bitter touching it? 4 Esd. 8:34
- For in truth there is no man of them that be borne, which hath not done impiously, and of them that confesse, which haue not sinned. (3 Kings 8:46 / 2 Par. 6:36) 4 Esd. 8:35
- Therfore as I haue spoken, so also it is. 4 Esd. 8:40
- For to you paradise is open, the tree of life is planted, time to come is prepared, abundance is prepared, a citie is builded, rest is approued, goodnes is perfited, & perfit wisdome. 4 Esd. 8:52
- The roote of euil is signed from you: infirmitie, and mothe is hid from you: & corruption is fled into hel in obliuion. 4 Esd. 8:53
- Sorowes are past, & the treasure of immortalitie is shewed in the end. 4 Esd. 8:54
- and haue sayd in their hart, that there is no God: and that, knowing that they dye. (Ps. 14 & 53) 4 Esd. 8:58
- then shalt thou vnderstand, that the same is the time wherin the Highest wil beginne to visite the world that was made by him. 4 Esd. 9:2
- For as al that is made in the world hath a beginning, and also a consummation, and the consummation is manifest: 4 Esd. 9:5
- Thou therfore be not yet curious, how the impious shal be tormented: but inquire how the iust shal be saued, and whose the world is, and for whom the world is, and when. 4 Esd. 9:13
- as a floud is multiplied aboue, more then a droppe. 4 Esd. 9:16
- And he ansvvered me, and sayd: Like as the field so also the sedes: and as the flovvers, such also the colours: and as the workeman, such also the worke: and such as the husbandman, such is the husbandrie: because it was the time of the world. 4 Esd. 9:17
- thou shalt goe into a field of flowers, where no house is built: & thou shalt eate only of the flowers of the field, and flesh thou shalt not tast, and wine thou shalt not drinke, but only flowers. 4 Esd. 9:24
- And I went forth, as he sayd to me, into a field which is called Ardath, and I sate there among the flowers. And I did eate of the herbes of the field, and the meate of them made me ful. 4 Esd. 9:26
- O Lord thou shewing thy selfe to vs, wast shewed to our fathers in the desert, which is not troden, and vnfruitful, when they came out of AEgypt: and saying thou saydst: (Ex. 19 & 24 / Deut. 4) 4 Esd. 9:29
- And behold it is the custome, that when the earth hath receiued sede, or the sea a shippe, or some vessel meate or drinke: when that shal be destroyed wherin it was sowne, or into the which it was cast: 4 Esd. 9:34
- that which was sowne, or cast in, or the thinges that were receiued, are destroyed withal, and the thinges receiued now tarye not with vs: but it is not so done to vs. 4 Esd. 9:35
- Because Sion our mother is sorroweful with al sorrowe, and humbled, and mourneth most bitterly. 4 Esd. 10:7
- For aske the earth, and it wil tel thee: that it is she, that ought to lament the fal of so manie thinges that spring vpon it. 4 Esd. 10:9
- And if thou say vnto me, that my mourning is not lyke the earthes: because I haue lost the fruite of my wombe, which I bare with sorrowes, and brought forth with paynes: 4 Esd. 10:12
- For thou seest that our sanctification is made desert, and our altar is throwen downe, and our temple is destroyed, 4 Esd. 10:21
- and our psalter is humbled, and hymne is silent, and our exultation is dissolued, and the light of our candelsticke is extinguished, and the arke of our testament is taken for spoyle, & our holie thinges are contaminated, and the name that is inuocated vpon vs, is almost prophaned: and our children haue suffred contumelie, and our Priestes are burnt, & our Leuites are gone into captiuitie, & our virgins are defloured, and our wiues haue suffered rape, and our iust men are violently taken, and our litle ones are lost, and our yong men are in bondage, and our valiants are made impotent: 4 Esd. 10:22
- and that which is greatest of al, the seale of Sion, because she is vnsealed of her glorie: For she is also deliuered into the handes of them that hate vs. 4 Esd. 10:23
- Where is Vriel the Angel, that from the beginning came to me? for he made me come in multitude in excesse of this minde, and my end is made into corruption, & my prayer into reproch. 4 Esd. 10:28
- What ayleth thee? and why is thy vnderstanding, and the sense of thy hart trubled, & why art thou trubled? And I sayd: 4 Esd. 10:31
- Or is my sense deceiued, & doth my soule dreame? 4 Esd. 10:36
- This therfore is the vnderstanding of the vision which appeared to thee a litle before. 4 Esd. 10:40
- And because she tolde thee of the fal of her sonne, this is the interpretation. 4 Esd. 10:43
- This woman which thou sawest, she is Sion, and wheras she told thee of her, whom now also thou shalt see, as a citie builded. 4 Esd. 10:44
- And wheras she sayd to thee, that my sonne comming into the bryde chamber dyed, and that a fal chanced vnto him, this was the ruine of Ierusalem that is made. 4 Esd. 10:48
- For therfore did he say to thee, that thou shouldest tarie in a field where house is not built. 4 Esd. 10:51
- therfore I sayd vnto thee, that thou shouldest goe into a field, where is no fundation of building. 4 Esd. 10:53
- Thou therfore feare not, neither let thy hart dread: but goe in, and see the beautie, and greatnes of the building, as much as the sight of thyne eyes is capable to see: 4 Esd. 10:55
- & afterward thou shalt heare as much, as the hearing of thyne eares is capable to heare. 4 Esd. 10:56
- And I saw, that al thinges vnder heauen were subiect to her, and no man gaynesayd her, no not one of the creature that is vpon the earth. 4 Esd. 11:6
- And I saw, and behold from the six litle winges two were diuided, and they remayned vnder the head, that is on the right side. For foure taried in their place. 4 Esd. 11:24
- Is it not thou that hast ouercome of the foure beastes, which I made to reigne in my world, and that by them the end of their times might come? 4 Esd. 11:39
- And thy contumelie is ascended euen to the Highest, and thy pride to the Strong. 4 Esd. 11:43
- Behold yet I am wearie in minde, and in my spirit I am very feeble, and there is not so much as a litle strength in me for the great feare, that I was afrayd of this night. 4 Esd. 12:5
- This is the interpretation of this vision. 4 Esd. 12:10
- The eagle which thou sawest coming vp from the sea, this is the kingdom which was sene in a vision to Daniel thy brother. (Dan. 7:7) 4 Esd. 12:11
- This is the interpretation of the twelue winges which thou sawest. 4 Esd. 12:16
- this is the interpretation, that after the time of that kingdom shal rise no smal contentions, and it shal be in danger to fal: and it shal not fal then, but shal be constituted againe according to the beginning therof. 4 Esd. 12:18
- this is the interpretation, eight kinges shal arise in it, whose times shal be light, and yeares swift, and two of them shal perish. 4 Esd. 12:20
- this is the interpretation: in her last dayes the Highest wil rayse vp three kingdoms, and wil cal backe manie thinges into them, and they shal rule ouer the earth, 4 Esd. 12:23
- And wheras thou sawest a greater head not appearing, this is the interpretation therof: that one of them shal dye vpon his bed, and yet with torments. 4 Esd. 12:26
- For the sword of one shal deuoure him that is with him: but yet this also at the last shal fal by the sword. 4 Esd. 12:28
- And wheras thou sawest two vnderwings passing ouer the head that is on the right side, 4 Esd. 12:29
- this is the interpretation: these are they whom the Highest hath kept to their end, this is a smal kingdom, and ful of truble. 4 Esd. 12:30
- this is the wynde which the Highest hath kept vnto the end for them, and their impieties: and he shal rebuke them, and shal cast in their spoyles before them. 4 Esd. 12:32
- This is the dreame which thou sawest, and these be the interpretations. 4 Esd. 12:35
- For there is remebrance of you before the Highest, and the Strong hath not forgotten you in tentation. 4 Esd. 12:47
- and whersoeuer voyce proceded out of his mouth, al that heard his voices begane to burne, as the earth is quiet when it feeleth the fire. 4 Esd. 13:4
- But yet it is easier, aduenturing to come into it, then to passe, as a cloud from the world, and vow to see the thinges that happen in the later time. And he answered me, and sayd: 4 Esd. 13:20
- Wheras thou speakest of them that were leaft, this is the interpretation. 4 Esd. 13:22
- the same is he whom the Highest preserueth much time, which by himself shal deliuer his creature: and he shal dispose them that are leaft. 4 Esd. 13:26
- and wheras he held no sworde, nor warlike instrument: for his violence destroyed the multitude that came to ouerthrow him: this is the interpretation. 4 Esd. 13:28
- For by that countie was a great way to goe, of one yeare and a half: for the countrie is called Arsareth. 4 Esd. 13:45
- This is the interpretation of the dreame which thou sawest, and for the which thou only art here illuminated. 4 Esd. 13:53
- For the world is diuided by twelue partes, & the tenth part, & half of the tenth part are passed: 4 Esd. 14:11
