 <div class="label">24</div><div class="q1"> 1Be not thou envious against evil men,</div><div class="q2">Neither desire to be with them.</div><div class="q1"> 2For their heart studieth destruction,</div><div class="q2">And their lips talk of mischief.</div><div class="q1"> 3Through wisdom is an house builded;</div><div class="q2">And by understanding it is established:</div><div class="q1"> 4And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled</div><div class="q2">With all precious and pleasant riches.</div><div class="q1"> 5A wise man is strong;</div><div class="q2">Yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.</div><div class="q1"> 6For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war:</div><div class="q2">And in multitude of counsellors there is safety.</div><div class="q1"> 7Wisdom is too high for a fool:</div><div class="q2">He openeth not his mouth in the gate.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 8He that deviseth to do evil</div><div class="q2">Shall be called a mischievous person.</div><div class="q1"> 9The thought of foolishness is sin:</div><div class="q2">And the scorner is an abomination to men.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 10 If thou faint in the day of adversity,</div><div class="q2">Thy strength is small.</div><div class="q1"> 11If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death,</div><div class="q2">And those that are ready to be slain;</div><div class="q1"> 12If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not;</div><div class="q2">Doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it?</div><div class="q2">And he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it?</div><div class="q2">And shall not he render to every man according to his works?</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 13My son, eat thou honey, because it is good;</div><div class="q2">And the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:</div><div class="q1"> 14So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul:</div><div class="q2">When thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward,</div><div class="q2">And thy expectation shall not be cut off.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 15Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous;</div><div class="q2">Spoil not his resting place:</div><div class="q1"> 16For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again:</div><div class="q2">But the wicked shall fall into mischief.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 17Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth,</div><div class="q2">And let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:</div><div class="q1"> 18Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him,</div><div class="q2">And he turn away his wrath from him.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 19Fret not thyself because of evil men,</div><div class="q2">Neither be thou envious at the wicked;</div><div class="q1"> 20For there shall be no reward to the evil man;</div><div class="q2">The candle of the wicked shall be put out.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 21My son, fear thou the LORD and the king:</div><div class="q2"> And meddle not with them that are given to change:</div><div class="q1"> 22For their calamity shall rise suddenly;</div><div class="q2">And who knoweth the ruin of them both?</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q2"> 23These things also belong to the wise.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 24He that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous;</div><div class="q2">Him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:</div><div class="q1"> 25But to them that rebuke him shall be delight,</div><div class="q2">And a good blessing shall come upon them.</div><div class="q1"> 26 Every man shall kiss his lips</div><div class="q2">That giveth a right answer.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 27Prepare thy work without,</div><div class="q2">And make it fit for thyself in the field;</div><div class="q2">And afterwards build thine house.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 28Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause;</div><div class="q2">And deceive not with thy lips.</div><div class="q1"> 29Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me:</div><div class="q2">I will render to the man according to his work.</div><div class="b"></div><div class="q1"> 30I went by the field of the slothful,</div><div class="q2">And by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;</div><div class="q1"> 31And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns,</div><div class="q2"> And nettles had covered the face thereof,</div><div class="q2">And the stone wall thereof was broken down.</div><div class="q1"> 32Then I saw, and considered it well:</div><div class="q2">I looked upon it, and received instruction.</div><div class="q1"> 33 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber,</div><div class="q2">A little folding of the hands to sleep:</div><div class="q1"> 34So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth;</div><div class="q2">And thy want as an armed man.</div><div class="b"></div>

 <div class="label">37</div><div class="s2">The Breath of the Lord</div><div class="p"> 1The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, 2and caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. 3And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. 4Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. 5Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: 6and I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.</div><div class="p"> 7So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone. 8And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them. 9Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. 10So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.</div><div class="p"> 11Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. 12Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. 13And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, 14and shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD.</div><div class="p"> 15The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, 16Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: 17and join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand. 18And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? 19Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand. 20And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes. 21And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: 22and I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all: 23neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.</div><div class="p"> 24And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. 25And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever. 26Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. 27My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 28And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.</div>

 <div class="label">3</div><div class="p"> 1Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; 2while they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. 3Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 5For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.</div><div class="p"> 7Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.</div><div class="p"> 8Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. 10For</div><div class="q1">He that will love life,</div><div class="q1">And see good days,</div><div class="q1">Let him refrain his tongue from evil,</div><div class="q1">And his lips that they speak no guile:</div><div class="q1"> 11Let him eschew evil, and do good;</div><div class="q1">Let him seek peace, and ensue it.</div><div class="q1"> 12For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous,</div><div class="q1">And his ears are open unto their prayers:</div><div class="q1">But the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.</div><div class="p"> 13And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? 14But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; 15but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: 16having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ. 17For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing. 18For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 19by which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. 21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: 22who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.</div>
