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

8Again the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying,
²Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
³Thus saith the Lord; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the Lord of hosts the holy mountain.
⁴Thus saith the Lord of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
⁵And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
⁶Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.
⁷Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;
⁸And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.
²⁰Thus saith the Lord of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
²¹And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I will go also.
²²Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
²³Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.

¹²For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
¹³For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
¹⁴For the body is not one member, but many.
¹⁵If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
¹⁶And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
¹⁷If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
¹⁸But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
¹⁹And if they were all one member, where were the body?
²⁰But now are they many members, yet but one body.
²¹And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
²²Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
²³And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
²⁴For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked.
²⁵That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
²⁶And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
²⁷Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
²⁸And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
²⁹Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
³⁰Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
³¹But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
