Psalms
131-134
Psa
131:1 Yahweh, my heart isn't haughty, nor my eyes lofty; nor do I
concern myself with great matters, or things too wonderful for me.
Psa
131:2 Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul, like a weaned child
with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me.
Psa
131:3 Israel, hope in Yahweh, from this time forth and forevermore.
Psa
132:1 Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,
Psa
132:2 how he swore to Yahweh, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
Psa
132:3 "Surely I will not come into the structure of my house,
nor go up into my bed;
Psa
132:4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids;
Psa
132:5 until I find out a place for Yahweh, a dwelling for the Mighty
One of Jacob."
Psa
132:6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field
of Jaar:
Psa
132:7 "We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at
his footstool.
Psa
132:8 Arise, Yahweh, into your resting place; you, and the ark of
your strength.
Psa
132:9 Let your priest be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints
shout for joy!"
Psa
132:10 For your servant David's sake, don't turn away the face of
your anointed one.
Psa
132:11 Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it:
"I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
Psa
132:12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I
will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne
forevermore."
Psa
132:13 For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his
habitation.
Psa
132:14 "This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for
I have desired it.
Psa
132:15 I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her
poor with bread.
Psa
132:16 Her priests I will also clothe with salvation. Her saints
will shout aloud for joy.
Psa
132:17 There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a
lamp for my anointed.
Psa
132:18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his
crown will be resplendent."
Psa
133:1 See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live
together in unity!
Psa
133:2 It is like the precious oil on the head, that ran down on the
beard, even Aaron's beard; that came down on the edge of his robes;
Psa
133:3 like the dew of Hermon, that comes down on the hills of Zion:
for there Yahweh gives the blessing, even life forevermore.
Psa
134:1 Look! Praise Yahweh, all you servants of Yahweh, who stand by
night in Yahweh's house!
Psa
134:2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary. Praise Yahweh!
Psa
134:3 May Yahweh bless you from Zion; even he who made heaven and
earth.
Galatians
1
Gal 1:1
Paul, an apostle (not from men, neither through man, but through
Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),
Gal 1:2
and all the brothers who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:
Gal 1:3
Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus
Christ,
Gal 1:4
who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this
present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father--
Gal 1:5
to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Gal 1:6 I
marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the
grace of Christ to a different "good news";
Gal 1:7
and there isn't another "good news." Only there are some
who trouble you, and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
Gal 1:8
But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any
"good news" other than that which we preached to you, let
him be cursed.
Gal 1:9
As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to
you any "good news" other than that which you received, let
him be cursed.
Gal 1:10
For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to
please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn't be a servant
of Christ.
Gal 1:11
But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was
preached by me, that it is not according to man.
Gal 1:12
For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it
came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
Gal 1:13
For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews'
religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God,
and ravaged it.
Gal 1:14
I advanced in the Jews' religion beyond many of my own age among my
countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my
fathers.
Gal 1:15
But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my
mother's womb, and called me through his grace,
Gal 1:16
to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles,
I didn't immediately confer with flesh and blood,
Gal 1:17
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me,
but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.
Gal 1:18
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and
stayed with him fifteen days.
Gal 1:19
But of the other apostles I saw no one, except James, the Lord's
brother.
Gal 1:20
Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I'm
not lying.
Gal 1:21
Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
Gal 1:22
I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in
Christ,
Gal 1:23
but they only heard: "He who once persecuted us now preaches the
faith that he once tried to destroy."
Gal 1:24
And they glorified God in me.
