¹The Lord reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
²Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.
³A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
⁴His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
⁵The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
⁶The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
⁷Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
⁸Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O Lord.
⁹For thou, Lord, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
¹⁰Ye that love the Lord, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
¹¹Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
¹²Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

15Then said the Lord unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.
²And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the Lord; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.
³And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the Lord: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
⁴And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
⁵For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?
⁶Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
⁷And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people since they return not from their ways.
⁸Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.

³⁸And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,
³⁹And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:
⁴⁰Which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.
⁴¹And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
⁴²And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
⁴³And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:
⁴⁴For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.
