- But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
- In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
- Who hath wrought and done it,
calling the generations from the beginning?
I the Lord, the first,
and with the last; I am he. - And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
- And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
- For I know that my redeemer liveth,
and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. - For his anger endureth but a moment;
in his favour is life:
weeping may endure for a night,
but joy cometh in the morning. - For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
- And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
- The wicked worketh a deceitful work:
but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward. - Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
- I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live:
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. - And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
- Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain:
but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. - And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
- The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom:
a good understanding have all they that do his commandments:
his praise endureth for ever. - Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
- Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high,
and the wilderness be a fruitful field,
and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. - For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
- Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
- While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
God setteth the solitary in families:
he bringeth out those which are bound with chains:
but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
