Section 1

Deuteronomy 32:45-33:7

15 verses

Deuteronomy Chapter 32

45Moses finished speaking all these words to all Israel; 46He said to them, "Set your heart to all the words which I testify to you today, which you shall command your children to observe to do, [even] all the words of this law.

47For it is no vain thing for you; because it is your life, and through this thing you shall prolong your days in the land, where you go over the Jordan to possess it." 48ForeverOne spoke to Moses that same day, saying, 49"Go up into this mountain of Abarim, to Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and see the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel for a possession; 50and die on the mountain where you go up, and be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother died on Mount Hor, and was gathered to his people: 51because you trespassed against me in the midst of the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah of Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because you didn't sanctify me in the midst of the children of Israel.

52For you shall see the land before you; but you shall not go there into the land which I give the children of Israel."

Deuteronomy Chapter 33

1This is the blessing, with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.

2He said, "ForeverOne came from Sinai, And rose from Seir to them. He shone out from Mount Paran. He came from the ten thousands of holy ones. At his right hand was a fiery law for them.

3Yes, he loves the people. All his saints are in your hand. They sat down at your feet; [Everyone] shall receive of your words.

4Moses commanded us a law, An inheritance for the assembly of Jacob.

5He was king in Jeshurun, When the heads of the people were gathered, All the tribes of Israel together.

6"Let Reuben live, and not die; Nor let his men be few." 7This is [the blessing] of Judah: and he said, "Hear, ForeverOne, the voice of Judah. Bring him in to his people. With his hands he contended for himself. You shall be a help against his adversaries."

Section 2

Zechariah 14

21 verses

Zechariah Chapter 14

1Behold, a day of ForeverOne comes, when your spoil will be divided in your midst.

2For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go out into captivity, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.

3Then ForeverOne will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

4His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two, from east to west, making a very great valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

5You shall flee by the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel; yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. ForeverOne my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.

6In that day there will not be light, cold, or frost.

7It will be a unique day which is known to ForeverOne; not day, and not night; but it will come to pass, that at evening time there will be light.

8In that day living waters will go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the eastern sea, and half of them toward the western sea; in summer and in winter will it be.

9ForeverOne will be King over all the earth. In that day ForeverOne will be one, and his name one.

10All the land will be made like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up, and will dwell in her place, from Benjamin's gate to the place of the first gate, to the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses.

11Men will dwell in it, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.

12This will be the plague with which ForeverOne will strike all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their sockets, and their tongue will consume away in their mouth.

13In that day a great panic from ForeverOne will be among them; and they will lay hold everyone on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbor.

14Judah also will fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together: gold, and silver, and clothing, in great abundance.

15So will be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the donkey, and of all the animals that will be in those camps, as that plague.

16Everyone who is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, ForeverOne of Armies, and to keep the feast of tents.

17It will be, that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn't go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, ForeverOne of Armies, on them there will be no rain.

18If the family of Egypt doesn't go up, and doesn't come, neither will it rain on them. This will be the plague with which ForeverOne will strike the nations that don't go up to keep the feast of tents.

19This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that don't go up to keep the feast of tents.

20In that day there will be on the bells of the horses, "HOLY TO ForeverOne;" and the pots in ForeverOne's house will be like the bowls before the altar.

21Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to ForeverOne of Armies; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and cook in them. In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of ForeverOne of Armies.

Section 3

Daniel 11:9-24

16 verses

Daniel Chapter 11

9He shall enter the realm of the king of the south, but he shall return into his own land.

10His sons shall war, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces, which shall come on, and overflow, and pass through; and they shall return and war, even to his fortress.

11The king of the south shall be moved with anger, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north; and he shall set forth a great multitude, and the multitude shall be given into his hand.

12The multitude shall be lifted up, and his heart shall be exalted; and he shall throw down tens of thousands, but he shall not prevail.

13The king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former; and he shall come on at the end of the times, [even of] years, with a great army and with much substance.

14In those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the children of the violent among your people shall lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they shall fall.

15So the king of the north shall come, and build a siege ramp, and take a well-fortified city: and the forces of the south shall not stand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to stand.

16But he who comes against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him; and he shall stand in the glorious land, and in his hand shall be destruction.

17He shall set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and with him equitable conditions; and he shall perform them: and he shall give him the daughter of women, to corrupt her; but she shall not stand, neither be for him.

18After this he shall turn his face to the islands, and shall take many: but a prince shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; yes, moreover, he shall cause his reproach to turn on him.

19Then he shall turn his face toward the fortresses of his own land; but he shall stumble and fall, and shall not be found.

20Then shall stand up in his place one who shall cause a tax collector to pass through the kingdom to maintain its glory; but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

21In his place shall stand up a contemptible person, to whom they had not given the honor of the kingdom: but he shall come in time of security, and shall obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

22The overwhelming forces shall be overwhelmed from before him, and shall be broken; yes, also the prince of the covenant.

23After the treaty made with him he shall work deceitfully; for he shall come up, and shall become strong, with a small people.

24In time of security he shall come even on the most productive places of the province; and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them prey, and spoil, and substance: yes, he shall devise his devices against the strongholds, even for a time.

Section 4

Revelation 20:7-21:8

17 verses

Revelation Chapter 20

7And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison, 8and he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war; the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

9They went up over the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints, and the beloved city. Fire came down out of heaven from God, and devoured them.

10The devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet are also. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

11I saw a great white throne, and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. There was found no place for them.

12I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their actions.

13The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his actions.

14Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.

15If anyone was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Revelation Chapter 21

1I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.

2I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.

3I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, "Behold, God's dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.

4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more. The first things have passed away." 5He who sits on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." He said, "Write, for these words of God are faithful and true." 6He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.

7He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.

8But for the cowardly, unbelieving, sinners, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their part is in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."
