Psalm 28

¹Unto thee will I cry, O Lord my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
²Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
³Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
⁴Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
⁵Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
⁶Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
⁷The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
⁸The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
⁹Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.

Psalm 29

¹Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
²Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

⁴The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
⁵The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars; yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.
⁶He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
⁷The voice of the Lord divideth the flames of fire.
⁸The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
⁹The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.
¹⁰The Lord sitteth upon the flood; yea, the Lord sitteth King for ever.
¹¹The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

7And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.

⁵Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
⁶Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal:
⁷Thus saith the Lord God, It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass.
⁸For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.
⁹And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.

¹⁷When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
¹⁸And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
¹⁹And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
