6:6And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Jehovah. 6:7And they said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let the armed men pass on before the ark of Jehovah.
6:8And it was so, that, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before Jehovah passed on, and blew the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah followed them. 6:9And the armed men went before the priests that blew the trumpets, and the rearward went after the ark, the priests blowing the trumpets as they went. 6:10And Joshua commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout. 6:11So he caused the ark of Jehovah to compass the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
6:12And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of Jehovah. 6:13And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Jehovah went on continually, and blew the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; and the rearward came after the ark of Jehovah, the priests blowing the trumpets as they went. 6:14And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
6:15And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on the day they compassed the city seven times. 6:16And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for Jehovah hath given you the city. 6:17And the city shall be devoted, even it and all that is therein, to Jehovah: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent. 6:18But as for you, only keep yourselves from the devoted thing, lest when ye have devoted it, ye take of the devoted thing; so would ye make the camp of Israel accursed, and trouble it. 6:19But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are holy unto Jehovah: they shall come into the treasury of Jehovah. 6:20So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets; and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. 6:21And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
6:22And Joshua said unto the two men that had spied out the land, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her. 6:23And the young men the spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; all her kindred also they brought out; and they set them without the camp of Israel. 6:24And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein; only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of Jehovah. 6:25But Rahab the harlot, and her father's household, and all that she had, did Joshua save alive; and she dwelt in the midst of Israel unto this day, because she hid the messengers, whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho. 6:26And Joshua charged them with an oath at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Jehovah, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: with the loss of his first-born shall he lay the foundation thereof, and with the loss of his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it. 6:27So Jehovah was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
135:1Praise ye Jehovah.
Praise ye the name of Jehovah;
Praise him, O ye servants of Jehovah,
135:2Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah,
In the courts of the house of our God.
135:3Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good:
Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
135:4For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself,
And Israel for his own possession.
135:5For I know that Jehovah is great,
And that our Lord is above all gods.
135:6Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done,
In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
135:7Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
Who maketh lightnings for the rain;
Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;
135:8Who smote the first-born of Egypt,
Both of man and beast;
135:9Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt,
Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;
135:10Who smote many nations,
And slew mighty kings,
135:11Sihon king of the Amorites,
And Og king of Bashan,
And all the kingdoms of Canaan,
135:12And gave their land for a heritage,
A heritage unto Israel his people.
135:13Thy name, O Jehovah, endureth for ever;
Thy memorial name, O Jehovah, throughout all generations.
135:14For Jehovah will judge his people,
And repent himself concerning his servants.
135:15The idols of the nations are silver and gold,
The work of men's hands.
135:16They have mouths, but they speak not;
Eyes have they, but they see not;
135:17They have ears, but they hear not;
Neither is there any breath in their mouths.
135:18They that make them shall be like unto them;
Yea, every one that trusteth in them.
135:19O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah:
O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah:
135:20O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah:
Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
135:21Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion,
Who dwelleth at Jerusalem.
Praise ye Jehovah.

For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
136:13To him that divided the Red Sea in sunder;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
136:14And made Israel to pass through the midst of it;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
136:15But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
136:16To him that led his people through the wilderness;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
136:17To him that smote great kings;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
136:18And slew famous kings;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
136:19Sihon king of the Amorites;
For his lovingkindness endureth forever;
136:20And Og king of Bashan;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
136:21And gave their land for a heritage;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
136:22Even a heritage unto Israel his servant;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
136:23Who remembered us in our low estate;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
136:24And hath delivered us from our adversaries;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
136:25Who giveth food to all flesh;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
136:26Oh give thanks unto the God of heaven;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
66:1Thus saith Jehovah, Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: what manner of house will ye build unto me? and what place shall be my rest? 66:2For all these things hath my hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith Jehovah: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my word. 66:3He that killeth an ox is as he that slayeth a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as he that breaketh a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, as he that offereth swine's blood; he that burneth frankincense, as he that blesseth an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations: 66:4I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did that which was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. 66:5Hear the word of Jehovah, ye that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hate you, that cast you out for my name's sake, have said, Let Jehovah be glorified, that we may see your joy; but it is they that shall be put to shame. 66:6A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of Jehovah that rendereth recompense to his enemies. 66:7Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child. 66:8Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? shall a nation be brought forth at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. 66:9Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith Jehovah: shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God. 66:10Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad for her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn over her; 66:11that ye may suck and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. 66:12For thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream: and ye shall suck thereof; ye shall be borne upon the side, and shall be dandled upon the knees. 66:13As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. 66:14And ye shall see it, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like the tender grass: and the hand of Jehovah shall be known toward his servants; and he will have indignation against his enemies. 66:15For, behold, Jehovah will come with fire, and his chariots shall be like the whirlwind; to render his anger with fierceness, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 66:16For by fire will Jehovah execute judgment, and by his sword, upon all flesh; and the slain of Jehovah shall be many. 66:17They that sanctify themselves and purify themselves to go unto the gardens, behind one in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, they shall come to an end together, saith Jehovah. 66:18For I know their works and their thoughts: the time cometh, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and shall see my glory. 66:19And I will set a sign among them, and I will send such as escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the nations. 66:20And they shall bring all your brethren out of all the nations for an oblation unto Jehovah, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith Jehovah, as the children of Israel bring their oblation in a clean vessel into the house of Jehovah. 66:21And of them also will I take for priests and for Levites, saith Jehovah. 66:22For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith Jehovah, so shall your seed and your name remain. 66:23And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith Jehovah. 66:24And they shall go forth, and look upon the dead bodies of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
14:1At that season Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus, 14:2and said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore do these powers work in him. 14:3For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife. 14:4For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her. 14:5And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet. 14:6But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and pleased Herod. 14:7Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she should ask. 14:8And she, being put forward by her mother, saith, Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist. 14:9And the king was grieved; but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat with him, he commanded it to be given; 14:10and he sent and beheaded John in the prison. 14:11And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother. 14:12And his disciples came, and took up the corpse, and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.
14:13Now when Jesus heard it, he withdrew from thence in a boat, to a desert place apart: and when the multitudes heard thereof, they followed him on foot from the cities. 14:14And he came forth, and saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick. 14:15And when even was come, the disciples came to him, saying, The place is desert, and the time is already past; send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food. 14:16But Jesus said unto them, They have no need to go away; give ye them to eat. 14:17And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. 14:18And he said, Bring them hither to me. 14:19And he commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. 14:20And they all ate, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 14:21And they that did eat were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
14:22And straightway he constrained the disciples to enter into the boat, and to go before him unto the other side, till he should send the multitudes away. 14:23And after he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain apart to pray: and when even was come, he was there alone. 14:24But the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves; for the wind was contrary. 14:25And in the fourth watch of the night he came unto them, walking upon the sea. 14:26And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost; and they cried out for fear. 14:27But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. 14:28And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto the upon the waters. 14:29And he said, Come. And Peter went down from the boat, and walked upon the waters to come to Jesus. 14:30But when he saw the wind, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me. 14:31And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and took hold of him, and saith unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? 14:32And when they were gone up into the boat, the wind ceased. 14:33And they that were in the boat worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.
14:34And when they had crossed over, they came to the land, unto Gennesaret. 14:35And when the men of that place knew him, they sent into all that region round about, and brought unto him all that were sick, 14:36and they besought him that they might only touch the border of his garment: and as many as touched were made whole.
