11In whom we also are called by lot, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the guidance of his will.

12That we may be to the praise of his glory, we who before hoped Christ:

13In whom you also, after you had heard the word of truth, (the gospel of your salvation;) in whom also believing, you were signed with the holy Spirit of promise,

14Who is the pledge of our gift, to the rescue of acquisition, to the praise of his glory.

1A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, OH you righteous: praise becometh the upright.

2Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.

4For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness.

5He loves mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.

12Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord: the people whom he has chosen for his gift.

13The Lord has looked from heaven: he has saw all the people.

1And when great crowds stood about him, so that they trod one upon another, he began to say to his disciples: Beware you of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

2For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed: nor hidden, that shall not be known.

3For whatever things you have said in darkness, shall be published in the light: and that which you have said in the ear in the chambers, shall be preached on the housetops.

4And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

5But I will show you whom you shall fear: fear you him, who after he has killed, has power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear him.

6Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?

7Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows.
