Deuteronomy Chapter 7

¹²Because you listen to these ordinances and keep them and do them, ForeverOne your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers: ¹³and he will love you, and bless you, and multiply you; he will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.

¹⁴You shall be blessed above all peoples: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.

¹⁵ForeverOne will take away from you all sickness; and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you know, he will put on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.

¹⁶You shall consume all the peoples whom ForeverOne your God shall deliver to you; your eye shall not pity them: neither shall you serve their gods; for that will be a snare to you.

¹⁷If you shall say in your heart, "These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?" ¹⁸you shall not be afraid of them: you shall well remember what ForeverOne your God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt; ¹⁹the great trials which your eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which ForeverOne your God brought you out: so shall ForeverOne your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.

²⁰Moreover ForeverOne your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.

²¹You shall not be scared of them; for ForeverOne your God is in the midst of you, a great and awesome God.

²²ForeverOne your God will throw out those nations before you by little and little: you may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.

²³But ForeverOne your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they be destroyed.

²⁴He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name to perish from under the sky: no man shall be able to stand before you, until you have destroyed them.

²⁵You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to ForeverOne your God.

²⁶You shall not bring an abomination into your house, and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it, and you shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.

Ezekiel Chapter 41

²¹As for the temple, the door posts were squared; and as for the face of the sanctuary, the appearance [of it] was as the appearance [of the temple].

²²The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, and its length, and its walls, were of wood: and he said to me, This is the table that is before ForeverOne.

²³The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

²⁴The doors had two leaves [apiece], two turning leaves: two [leaves] for the one door, and two leaves for the other.

²⁵There were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm trees, like as were made on the walls; and there was a threshold of wood on the face of the porch outside.

²⁶There were closed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch: thus were the side rooms of the house, and the thresholds.

Ezekiel Chapter 42

¹Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the room that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.

²Before the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.

³Over against the twenty [cubits] which belonged to the inner court, and over against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the third story.

⁴Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits' width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.

⁵Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middle, in the building.

⁶For they were in three stories, and they didn't have pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore [the uppermost] was straitened more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.

⁷The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, its length was fifty cubits.

⁸For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and behold, before the temple were one hundred cubits.

⁹From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.

¹⁰In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.

¹¹The way before them was like the appearance of [the way of] the rooms which were toward the north; according to their length so was their width: and all their exits were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.

¹²According to the doors of the rooms that were toward the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one enters into them.

¹³Then he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms, which are before the separate place, they are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to ForeverOne shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.

¹⁴When the priests enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to what pertains to the people.

¹⁵Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me forth by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it all around.

¹⁶He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.

¹⁷He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.

¹⁸He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

¹⁹He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

²⁰He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall around it, the length five hundred, and the width five hundred, to make a separation between what was holy and what was common.

Proverbs Chapter 29

¹¹A fool vents all of his anger, but a wise man brings himself under control.

¹²If a ruler listens to lies, all of his officials are wicked.

¹³The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: ForeverOne gives sight to the eyes of both.

¹⁴The king who fairly judges the poor, his throne shall be established forever.

¹⁵The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.

¹⁶When the wicked increase, sin increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.

¹⁷Correct your son, and he will give you peace; yes, he will bring delight to your soul.

¹⁸Where there is no revelation, the people throw off restraint; but one who keeps the law is blessed.

¹⁹A servant can't be corrected by words. Though he understands, yet he will not respond.

²⁰Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

²¹He who pampers his servant from youth will have him become a son in the end.

²²An angry man stirs up strife, and a wrathful man abounds in sin.

²³A man's pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.

²⁴Whoever is an accomplice of a thief is an enemy of his own soul. He takes an oath, but dares not testify.

²⁵The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in ForeverOne is kept safe.

²⁶Many seek the ruler's favor, but a man's justice comes from ForeverOne.

²⁷A dishonest man detests the righteous, and the upright in their ways detest the wicked.

Proverbs Chapter 30

¹The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, the oracle: the man says to Ithiel, to Ithiel and Ucal: ²"Surely I am the most ignorant man, and don't have a man's understanding.

³I have not learned wisdom, neither do I have the knowledge of the Holy One.

⁴Who has ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has bound the waters in his garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if you know?

⁵"Every word of God is flawless. He is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

⁶Don't you add to his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar.

⁷"Two things I have asked of you; don't deny me before I die: ⁸Remove far from me falsehood and lies. Give me neither poverty nor riches. Feed me with the food that is needful for me; ⁹lest I be full, deny you, and say, 'Who is ForeverOne?' or lest I be poor, and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God.

Hebrews Chapter 10

²⁶For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins, ²⁷but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.

²⁸A man who disregards Moses' law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.

²⁹How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

³⁰For we know him who said, "Vengeance belongs to me," says ForeverOne, "I will repay." Again, "ForeverOne will judge his people." ³¹It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

³²But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings; ³³partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions; and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.

³⁴For you both had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.

³⁵So don't throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

³⁶For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

³⁷"In a very little while, he who comes will come, and will not wait.

³⁸But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him." ³⁹But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.

Hebrews Chapter 11

¹Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.

²For by this, the elders obtained testimony.

³By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.

⁴By faith, Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.

⁵By faith, Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn't see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.

⁶Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

⁷By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
