The Bible Reading Plan

Leviticus Chapter 19

¹ForeverOne spoke to Moses, saying, ²"Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I ForeverOne your God am holy.

³"'Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am ForeverOne your God.

⁴"'Don't turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I am ForeverOne your God.

⁵"'When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to ForeverOne, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.

⁶It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day: and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned with fire.

⁷If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted; ⁸but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of ForeverOne, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.

⁹"'When you reap the harvest of your land, don't wholly reap the corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.

¹⁰Don't glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am ForeverOne your God.

¹¹"'Don't steal. "'Don't lie. "'Don't deceive one another.

¹²"'Don't swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of your God. I am ForeverOne.

¹³"'Don't oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. "'The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night until the morning.

¹⁴"'Don't curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind; but you shall fear your God. I am ForeverOne.

¹⁵"'Don't do any injustice in judgment: you mustn't be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness.

¹⁶"'Don't go up and down as a slanderer among your people. "'Don't endanger the life of your neighbor. I am ForeverOne.

¹⁷"'Don't hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.

¹⁸"'Don't take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am ForeverOne.

Isaiah Chapter 42

¹⁰Sing to ForeverOne a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, the islands and their inhabitants.

¹¹Let the wilderness and its cities raise their voices, with the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing. Let them shout from the top of the mountains!

¹²Let them give glory to ForeverOne, and declare his praise in the islands.

¹³ForeverOne will go out like a mighty man. He will stir up zeal like a man of war. He will raise a war cry. Yes, he will shout aloud. He will triumph over his enemies.

¹⁴"I have been silent a long time. I have been quiet and restrained myself. Now I will cry out like a travailing woman. I will both gasp and pant.

¹⁵I will destroy mountains and hills, and dry up all their plants. I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.

¹⁶I will bring the blind by a way that they don't know. I will lead them in paths that they don't know. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. I will do these things, and I will not forsake them.

¹⁷"Those who trust in engraved images, who tell molten images, 'You are our gods' will be turned back. They will be utterly disappointed.

¹⁸"Hear, you deaf, and look, you blind, that you may see.

¹⁹Who is blind, but my servant? Or who is as deaf as my messenger whom I send? Who is as blind as he who is at peace, and as blind as ForeverOne's servant?

²⁰You see many things, but don't observe. His ears are open, but he doesn't listen.

²¹It pleased ForeverOne, for his righteousness' sake, to magnify the law, and make it honorable.

²²But this is a robbed and plundered people. All of them are snared in holes, and they are hidden in prisons. They have become a prey, and no one delivers; and a spoil, and no one says, 'Restore them!' ²³Who is there among you who will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?

²⁴Who gave Jacob as plunder, and Israel to the robbers? Didn't ForeverOne, he against whom we have sinned? For they would not walk in his ways, and they disobeyed his law.

²⁵Therefore he poured the fierceness of his anger on him, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire all around, but he didn't know; and it burned him, but he didn't take it to heart."

Isaiah Chapter 43

Psalm 20

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

¹May ForeverOne answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high, ²send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion, ³remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah.

⁴May He grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

⁵We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May ForeverOne grant all your requests.

⁶Now I know that ForeverOne saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

⁷Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of ForeverOne our God.

⁸They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

⁹Save, ForeverOne! Let the King answer us when we call!

Psalm 21

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

¹The king rejoices in your strength, ForeverOne! How greatly he rejoices in your salvation!

²You have given him his heart's desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.

³For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

⁴He asked life of you, you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

⁵His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.

⁶For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

⁷For the king trusts in ForeverOne. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.

⁸Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.

⁹You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. ForeverOne will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

¹⁰You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the children of men.

¹¹For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

¹²For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

¹³Be exalted, ForeverOne, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

Acts Chapter 18

²⁴Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.

²⁵This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.

²⁶He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.

²⁷When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him, and wrote to the disciples to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace; ²⁸for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the AnointedOne.

Acts Chapter 19

¹While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus and found certain disciples.

²He said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" They said to him, "No, we haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit." ³He said, "Into what then were you baptized?" They said, "Into John's baptism." ⁴Paul said, "John indeed baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Jesus." ⁵When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

⁶When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke with other languages and prophesied.

⁷They were about twelve men in all.

⁸He entered into the synagogue and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning God's Kingdom.

⁹But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

¹⁰This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

¹¹God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul, ¹²so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out.
