Yea, Thou turnest back the edge of his sword, And hast not made him to stand in the battle.,Happy is the people that know the joyful shout; They walk, O LORD, in the light of Thy countece.,Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with strokes.,How long, O LORD, wilt Thou hide Thyself for ever? How long shall Thy wrath burn like fire?,The north and the south, Thou hast created them; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in Thy name.,Thine are the heavens, Thine also the earth; The world and the fulness thereof, Thou hast founded them.,I also will appoint him first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth.,He shall call unto Me: Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation. .,Thou rulest the proud swelling of the sea; When the waves thereof arise, Thou stillest them.,But Thou hast cast off and rejected, Thou hast been wroth with Thine anointed.,Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.,Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.,For of the LORD is our shield; And the Holy One of Israel is our king.,Thou didst crush Rahab, as one that is slain; Thou didst scattered Thine enemies with the arm of Thy strength.,The days of his youth hast Thou shortened; Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah,A God dreaded in the great council of the holy ones, And feared of all them that are about Him?,Thou hast made his brightness to cease, And cast his throne down to the ground.,Wherewith Thine enemies have taunted, O LORD, Wherewith they have taunted the footsteps of Thine anointed.,The enemy shall not exact from him; Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.,It shall be established for ever as the moon; And be stedfast as the witness in sky.' Selah,If they profane My statutes, And keep not My commandments;,Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, And saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.,For ever will I keep for him My mercy, And My covet shall stand fast with him.,I have found David My servant; With My holy oil have I anointed him;,Where are Thy former mercies, O Lord, Which Thou didst swear unto David in Thy faithfulness?,I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever; To all generations will I make known Thy faithfulness with my mouth.,And I will beat to pieces his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him.,My covet will I not profane, Nor alter that which is gone out of My lips.,What man is he that liveth and shall not see death, That shall deliver his soul from the power of the grave? Selah,O LORD God of hosts, Who is a mighty one, like unto Thee, O LORD? And Thy faithfulness is round about Thee.,Thou hast broken down all his fences; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin.,With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.,For who in the skies can be compared unto the LORD, Who among the sons of might can be likened unto the LORD,,For I have said: 'For ever is mercy built; In the very heavens Thou dost establish Thy faithfulness.,I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers.,For Thou art the glory of their strength; And in Thy favour our horn is exalted.,I have made a covet with My chosen, I have sworn unto David My servant:,Once have I sworn by My holiness: Surely I will not be false unto David;,But My mercy will I not break off from him, Nor will I be false to My faithfulness.,O remember how short my time is; For what vanity hast Thou created all the children of men!,Remember, Lord, the taunt of Thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom [the taunt of] so many peoples;,Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Thy throne; Mercy and truth go before Thee.,If his children forsake My law, And walk not in Mine ordices; :,His seed also will I make to endure for ever, And his throne as the days of heaven.,His seed shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before Me.,Thine is an arm with might; Strong is Thy hand, and exalted is Thy right hand.,Thou hast abhorred the covet of Thy servant; Thou hast profaned his crown even to the ground.,So shall the heavens praise Thy wonders, O LORD, Thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.,But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him; And through My name shall his horn be exalted.,Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.,In Thy name do they rejoice all the day; And through Thy righteousness are they exalted.,For ever will I establish thy seed, And build up thy throne to all generations.' Selah,All that pass by the way spoil him; He is become a taunt to his neighbours. |

And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bore Enoch; and he builded a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch. 4.18. And unto Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael; and Mehujael begot Methushael; and Methushael begot Lamech. 4.19. And Lamech took unto him two wives; the name of one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah. 4.20. And Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of such as dwell in tents and have cattle. 4.21. And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all such as handle the harp and pipe. 4.22. And Zillah, she also bore Tubal-cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of brass and iron; and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah. 4.26. And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh; then began men to call upon the name of the LORD. 5.1. This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made He him; 5.2. male and female created He them, and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. 5.9. And Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Ke. 5.24. And Enoch walked with God, and he was not; for God took him. 6.1. And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 6.2. that the sons of nobles saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives, whomsoever they chose. 6.3. And the LORD said: ‘My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.’ 6.4. The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of nobles came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown. |

And Ĥanna prayed, and said, My heart rejoices in the Lord, my horn is exalted in the Lord: my mouth is enlarged over my enemies; because I rejoice in Thy salvation. 2.2. There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside Thee: neither is there any rock like our God. 2.3. Talk no more so very proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed. 2.4. The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength. 2.5. They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry have ceased: while the barren has born seven; and she that has many children has become wretched. 2.6. The Lord kills, and gives life: he brings down to the grave, and brings up. 2.7. The Lord makes poor, and makes rich: he brings low, and raises up. 2.8. He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and he has set the world upon them. 2.9. He will keep the feet of his pious ones, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for it is not by strength that man prevails. 2.10. The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken in pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed. 2.27. And there came a man of God to ῾Eli and said to him, Thus says the Lord, Did I not appear to the house of thy father, when they were in Miżrayim in the house of Par῾o? 2.28. And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Yisra᾽el to be my priest, to offer upon my altar, to burn incense, to wear an efod before me? and did I give to the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Yisra᾽el? 2.29. Wherefore do you kick at my sacrifice and at my offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Yisra᾽el my people? 2.30. Wherefore the Lord God of Yisra᾽el says, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me forever; but now the Lord says, Far be it from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed. 2.31. Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thy arm, and the arm of thy father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house. 2.32. And thou shalt see a rival in thy habitation, enjoying all wealth which God shall give Yisra᾽el: and there shall not be an old man in thy house forever. 2.33. And thy descendants shall I not cut off from my altar, but they shall be there to consume thy eyes, and to grieve thy heart: and all the greater folk of thy house shall die in the flower of their age. 2.34. And this shall be a sign to thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Ĥofni and Pineĥas; in one day they shall die both of them. 2.35. And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before my anointed forever. 2.36. And it shall come to pass, that everyone that is left in thy house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread. 13.13. And Shemu᾽el said to Sha᾽ul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy God, which he commanded thee: for now the Lord would have established thy kingdom upon Yisra᾽el for ever. |

Now therefore so shalt thou say to my servant David, Thus says the Lord of hosts, I took thee from the sheepfold, from following the sheep, to be ruler over my people, over Yisra᾽el: 7.9. and I was with thee wherever thou didst go, and have cut off all thy enemies out of thy sight, and have made thee a great name, like the name of the great men that are on the earth. 7.10. Moreover I have appointed a place for my people Yisra᾽el, and planted them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and be troubled no more; neither shall the children of wickedness torment them any more, as at the beginning, 7.11. and as since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Yisra᾽el; but I will give thee rest from all thy enemies, and the Lord tells thee that he will make thee a house. 7.12. And when the days are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, who shall issue from thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom. 7.13. He shall build a house for my name, and I will make firm the throne of his kingdom for ever. 7.14. I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with such plagues as befall the sons of Adam: 7.15. but my covet love shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Sha᾽ul, whom I put away before thee. 7.16. And thy house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be firm for ever. 12.1. And the Lord sent Natan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor. 12.2. The rich man had very many flocks and herds: 12.3. but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and reared: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own bread, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him. 12.4. And there came a traveller to the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to prepare it for the wayfaring man that was come to him; but took the poor man’s lamb, and prepared it for the man that was come to him. 12.5. And David’s anger burned greatly against the man; and he said to Natan, As the Lord lives, the man that has done this is worthy to die: 12.6. and he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity. 12.7. And Natan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus says the Lord God of Yisra᾽el, I anointed thee king over Yisra᾽el, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Sha᾽ul; 12.8. and I gave thee thy master’s house, and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Yisra᾽el and of Yehuda; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given thee as much again. 12.9. Why hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriyya the Ĥittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of ῾Ammon. 12.10. Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriyya the Ĥittite to be thy wife. 12.11. Thus says the Lord, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes, and give them to thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun. 12.12. For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Yisra᾽el, and before the sun. 12.13. And David said to Natan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Natan said to David, The Lord also has commuted thy sin; thou shalt not die. 12.14. Howbeit because by this deed thou hast greatly blasphemed the Lord, the child also that is born to thee shall surely die. 12.15. And Natan departed to his house. And the Lord struck the child that Uriyya’s wife bore to David, and it was very sick. |

Let us now praise famous men,and our fathers in their generations., The Lord apportioned to them great glory,his majesty from the beginning., There were those who ruled in their kingdoms,and were men renowned for their power,giving counsel by their understanding,and proclaiming prophecies;, leaders of the people in their deliberations and in understanding of learning for the people,wise in their words of instruction;, those who composed musical tunes,and set forth verses in writing;, rich men furnished with resources,living peaceably in their habitations --, all these were honored in their generations,and were the glory of their times., There are some of them who have left a name,so that men declare their praise., And there are some who have no memorial,who have perished as though they had not lived;they have become as though they had not been born,and so have their children after them., But these were men of mercy,whose righteous deeds have not been forgotten;, their prosperity will remain with their descendants,and their inheritance to their childrens children., Their descendants stand by the covets;their children also, for their sake., Their posterity will continue for ever,and their glory will not be blotted out., Their bodies were buried in peace,and their name lives to all generations., Peoples will declare their wisdom,and the congregation proclaims their praise., Enoch pleased the Lord, and was taken up;he was an example of repentance to all generations., Noah was found perfect and righteous;in the time of wrath he was taken in exchange;therefore a remt was left to the earth when the flood came., Everlasting covets were made with him that all flesh should not be blotted out by a flood., Abraham was the great father of a multitude of nations,and no one has been found like him in glory;, he kept the law of the Most High,and was taken into covet with him;he established the covet in his flesh,and when he was tested he was found faithful., Therefore the Lord assured him by an oath that the nations would be blessed through his posterity;that he would multiply him like the dust of the earth,and exalt his posterity like the stars,and cause them to inherit from sea to sea and from the River to the ends of the earth., To Isaac also he gave the same assurance for the sake of Abraham his father., The blessing of all men and the covet he made to rest upon the head of Jacob;he acknowledged him with his blessings,and gave him his inheritance;he determined his portions,and distributed them among twelve tribes. |

I am not lying, my conscience testifying with me in the Holy Spirit, , that I have great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart. , For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers' sake, my relatives according to the flesh, , who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covets, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises; , of whom are the fathers, and from whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen. , But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel. , Neither, because they are Abraham's seed, are they all children. But, "In Isaac will your seed be called.", That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as a seed. , For this is a word of promise, "At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.", Not only so, but Rebecca also conceived by one, by our father Isaac. , For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls, , it was said to her, "The elder will serve the younger.", Even as it is written, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.", What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? May it never be! , For he said to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.", So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy. , For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I caused you to be raised up, that I might show in you my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth.", So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires. , You will say then to me, "Why does he still find fault? For who withstands his will?", But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, "Why did you make me like this?", Or hasn't the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor? , What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath made for destruction, , and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory, , us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles? , As he says also in Hosea, "I will call them 'my people,' which were not my people; And her 'beloved,' who was not beloved.", "It will be that in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' There they will be called 'sons of the living God.'", Isaiah cries concerning Israel, "If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, It is the remt who will be saved; , For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth.", As Isaiah has said before, "Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And would have been made like Gomorrah.", What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn't follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith; , but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn't arrive at the law of righteousness. , Why? Because they didn't seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone; , even as it is written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; And no one who believes in him will be put to shame." |
