Deuteronomy Chapter 31

²⁴When Moses had finished writing the words of this law in a book, until they were complete, ²⁵Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of ForeverOne, saying, ²⁶"Take this book of the law, and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of ForeverOne your God, that it may be there for a witness against you.

²⁷For I know your rebellion, and your stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you today, you have been rebellious against ForeverOne; and how much more after my death?

²⁸Assemble to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to witness against them.

²⁹For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will happen to you in the latter days; because you will do what is evil in the sight of ForeverOne, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands." ³⁰Moses spoke in the ears of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song, until they were finished.

Deuteronomy Chapter 32

¹Give ear, you heavens, and I will speak. Let the earth hear the words of my mouth.

²My doctrine shall drop as the rain. My speech shall condense as the dew, as the small rain on the tender grass, as the showers on the plant.

³For I will proclaim the name of ForeverOne. Ascribe greatness to our God!

⁴The Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are justice: a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is he.

⁵They have dealt corruptly with him, [they are] not his children, [it is] their blemish. [They are] a perverse and crooked generation.

⁶Do you thus requite ForeverOne, foolish people and unwise? Isn't he your father who has bought you? He has made you, and established you.

⁷Remember the days of old. Consider the years of many generations. Ask your father, and he will show you; your elders, and they will tell you.

⁸When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the children of men, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel.

⁹For ForeverOne's portion is his people. Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.

Zechariah Chapter 8

¹⁴For thus says ForeverOne of Armies: "As I thought to do evil to you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath," says ForeverOne of Armies, "and I didn't repent; ¹⁵so again have I thought in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Don't be afraid.

¹⁶These are the things that you shall do: speak every man the truth with his neighbor. Execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates, ¹⁷and let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbor, and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate," says ForeverOne.

¹⁸The word of ForeverOne of Armies came to me.

¹⁹Thus says ForeverOne of Armies: "The fasts of the fourth fifth, seventh, and tenth months shall be for the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts. Therefore love truth and peace." ²⁰Thus says ForeverOne of Armies: "Many peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities will yet come; ²¹and the inhabitants of one shall go to another, saying, 'Let us go speedily to entreat the favor of ForeverOne, and to seek ForeverOne of Armies. I will go also.' ²²Yes, many peoples and strong nations will come to seek ForeverOne of Armies in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of ForeverOne." ²³Thus says ForeverOne of Armies: "In those days, ten men will take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, they will take hold of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, 'We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'"

Zechariah Chapter 9

Daniel Chapter 9

¹²He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing on us a great evil; for under the whole sky, such has not been done as has been done to Jerusalem.

¹³As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: yet have we not entreated the favor of ForeverOne our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in your truth.

¹⁴Therefore has ForeverOne watched over the evil, and brought it on us; for ForeverOne our God is righteous in all his works which he does, and we have not obeyed his voice.

¹⁵Now, LordOfMine our God, who has brought your people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and have obtained renown for yourself, as it is today. We have sinned, we have done wickedly.

¹⁶LordOfMine, according to all your righteousness, let your anger and please let your wrath be turned away from your city Jerusalem, your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a reproach to all who are around us.

¹⁷Now therefore, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant, and to his petitions, and cause your face to shine on your sanctuary that is desolate, for LordOfMine's sake.

¹⁸My God, turn your ear, and hear; open your eyes, and see our desolations, and the city which is called by your name: for we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercies' sake.

¹⁹LordOfMine, hear; LordOfMine, forgive; LordOfMine, listen and do; don't defer, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.

²⁰While I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before ForeverOne my God for the holy mountain of my God; ²¹yes, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening offering.

²²He instructed me, and talked with me, and said, Daniel, I am now come forth to give you wisdom and understanding.

²³At the beginning of your petitions the commandment went forth, and I have come to tell you; for you are greatly beloved: therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision.

²⁴Seventy weeks are decreed on your people and on your holy city, to finish disobedience, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy.

²⁵Know therefore and discern, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem to the anointed, the prince, shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks: it shall be built again, with street and moat, even in troubled times.

Revelation Chapter 18

¹After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having great authority. The earth was illuminated with his glory.

²He cried with a mighty voice, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird!

³For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality, the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from the abundance of her luxury." ⁴I heard another voice from heaven, saying, "Come out of her, my people, that you have no participation in her sins, and that you don't receive of her plagues, ⁵for her sins have reached to the sky, and God has remembered her iniquities.

⁶Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her actions. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.

⁷However much she glorified herself, and grew wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning. For she says in her heart, 'I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.' ⁸Therefore in one day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for ForeverOne God who has judged her is strong.

⁹The kings of the earth, who committed sexual immorality and lived wantonly with her, will weep and wail over her, when they look at the smoke of her burning, ¹⁰standing far away for the fear of her torment, saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For your judgment has come in one hour.' ¹¹The merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more: ¹²merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, all expensive wood, every vessel of ivory, every vessel made of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble; ¹³and cinnamon, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, sheep, horses, chariots, and people's bodies and souls.

¹⁴The fruits which your soul lusted after have been lost to you. All things that were dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you will find them no more at all.

¹⁵The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning; ¹⁶saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls!
