Leviticus
15
|

1 ¶And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying, 2 Speak unto
the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath a running
issue out of his flesh, because of his issue he is unclean. 3 And
this shall be his uncleanness in his issue: whether his flesh run
with his issue, or his flesh be stopped from his issue, it is his
uncleanness. 4 Every bed, whereon he lieth that hath the issue,
is unclean: and every thing, whereon he sitteth, shall be unclean.
5 And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe
himself in water, and be unclean until the even. 6 And he that sitteth
on any thing whereon he sat that hath the issue shall wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. 7 And
he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the issue shall wash
his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the
even. 8 And if he that hath the issue spit upon him that is clean;
then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and
be unclean until the even. 9 And what saddle soever he rideth upon
that hath the issue shall be unclean. 10 And whosoever toucheth
any thing that was under him shall be unclean until the even: and
he that beareth any of those things shall wash his clothes, and
bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even. 11 And whomsoever
he toucheth that hath the issue, and hath not rinsed his hands in
water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and
be unclean until the even. 12 And the vessel of earth, that he toucheth
which hath the issue, shall be broken: and every vessel of wood
shall be rinsed in water. 13 And when he that hath an issue is cleansed
of his issue; then he shall number to himself seven days for his
cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running
water, and shall be clean. 14 And on the eighth day he shall take
to him two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and come before the
LORD unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and give
them unto the priest: 15 And the priest shall offer them, the one
for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the
priest shall make an atonement for him before the LORD for his issue.
16 And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he
shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.
17 And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed of copulation,
shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even. 18 The
woman also with whom man shall lie with seed of copulation, they
shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until the even.
19 ¶And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be
blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth
her shall be unclean until the even. 20 And every thing that she
lieth upon in her separation shall be unclean: every thing also
that she sitteth upon shall be unclean. 21 And whosoever toucheth
her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and
be unclean until the even. 22 And whosoever toucheth any thing that
she sat upon shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,
and be unclean until the even. 23 And if it be on her bed, or on
any thing whereon she sitteth, when he toucheth it, he shall be
unclean until the even. 24 And if any man lie with her at all, and
her flowers be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and all
the bed whereon he lieth shall be unclean. 25 And if a woman have
an issue of her blood many days out of the time of her separation,
or if it run beyond the time of her separation; all the days of
the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation:
she shall be unclean. 26 Every bed whereon she lieth all the days
of her issue shall be unto her as the bed of her separation: and
whatsoever she sitteth upon shall be unclean, as the uncleanness
of her separation. 27 And whosoever toucheth those things shall
be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,
and be unclean until the even. 28 But if she be cleansed of her
issue, then she shall number to herself seven days, and after that
she shall be clean. 29 And on the eighth day she shall take unto
her two turtles, or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest,
to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 30 And the priest
shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt
offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for her before
the LORD for the issue of her uncleanness. 31 Thus shall ye separate
the children of Israel from their uncleanness; that they die not
in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that is among
them. 32 This is the law of him that hath an issue, and of him whose
seed goeth from him, and is defiled therewith; 33 And of her that
is sick of her flowers, and of him that hath an issue, of the man,
and of the woman, and of him that lieth with her that is unclean.

1 ¶O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of
the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.

1 ¶O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy
endureth for ever. 2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth
for ever. 3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth
for ever. 4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy
endureth for ever. 5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD
answered me, and set me in a large place. 6 The LORD is on my side;
I will not fear: what can man do unto me? 7 The LORD taketh my part
with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them
that hate me. 8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence
in man. 9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence
in princes. 10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of
the LORD will I destroy them. 11 They compassed me about; yea, they
compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
12 They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire
of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 13 Thou
hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of
the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 16 The
right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth
valiantly. 17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of
the LORD. 18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given
me over unto death.
19 ¶Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them,
and I will praise the LORD: 20 This gate of the LORD, into which
the righteous shall enter. 21 I will praise thee: for thou hast
heard me, and art become my salvation. 22 The stone which the builders
refused is become the head stone of the corner. 23 This is the LORD'S
doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. 24 This is the day which the
LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Save now,
I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed
you out of the house of the LORD. 27 God is the LORD, which hath
shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns
of the altar. 28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art
my God, I will exalt thee. 29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he
is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Corinthians 10
|

1 ¶Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness
of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am
bold toward you: 2 But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when
I am present with that confidence, wherewith I think to be bold
against some, which think of us as if we walked according to the
flesh. 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the
flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty
through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down
imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against
the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought
to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge
all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
7 ¶Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man
trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this
again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's. 8 For though
I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath
given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should
not be ashamed: 9 That I may not seem as if I would terrify you
by letters. 10 For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful;
but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible. 11
Let such an one think this, that, such as we are in word by letters
when we are absent, such will we be also in deed when we are present.
12 ¶For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves
with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves
by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not
wise. 13 But we will not boast of things without our measure, but
according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed
to us, a measure to reach even unto you. 14 For we stretch not ourselves
beyond our measure, as though we reached not unto you: for we are
come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel of Christ: 15
Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men's
labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we
shall be enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly, 16 To
preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in
another man's line of things made ready to our hand. 17 But he that
glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. 18 For not he that commendeth
himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

Corinthians 11
|

1 ¶Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and
indeed bear with me. 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy:
for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as
a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the
serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should
be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he
that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached,
or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or
another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with
him.
5 ¶For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
6 But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have
been throughly made manifest among you in all things. 7 Have I committed
an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I
have preached to you the gospel of God freely? 8 I robbed other
churches, taking wages of them, to do you service. 9 And when I
was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for
that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia
supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome
unto you, and so will I keep myself. 10 As the truth of Christ is
in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11 Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth. 12 But what I
do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which
desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even
as we. 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming
themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan
himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is
no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers
of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
16 ¶I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as
a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little. 17 That which
I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly,
in this confidence of boasting. 18 Seeing that many glory after
the flesh, I will glory also. 19 For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing
ye yourselves are wise. 20 For ye suffer, if a man bring you into
bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt
himself, if a man smite you on the face. 21 I speak as concerning
reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any
is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.
22 ¶Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are
they the seed of Abraham? so am I. 23 Are they ministers of Christ?
(I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes
above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft. 24 Of the
Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. 25 Thrice was
I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck,
a night and a day I have been in the deep; 26 In journeyings often,
in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own
countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in
perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among
false brethren; 27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often,
in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
28 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon
me daily, the care of all the churches. 29 Who is weak, and I am
not weak? who is offended, and I burn not? 30 If I must needs glory,
I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities. 31 The
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore,
knoweth that I lie not. 32 In Damascus the governor under Aretas
the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous
to apprehend me: 33 And through a window in a basket was I let down
by the wall, and escaped his hands.
