\p Genesis 17.0: \c 17 \p \p Genesis 17.1: \v 1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless. \p Genesis 17.2: \v 2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.” \p \p Genesis 17.3: \v 3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying, \p Genesis 17.4: \v 4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations. \p Genesis 17.5: \v 5 Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. \p Genesis 17.6: \v 6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you. \p Genesis 17.7: \v 7 I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you. \p Genesis 17.8: \v 8 I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are traveling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.” \p \p Genesis 17.9: \v 9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you will keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations. \p Genesis 17.10: \v 10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised. \p Genesis 17.11: \v 11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you. \p Genesis 17.12: \v 12 He who is eight days old will be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring. \p Genesis 17.13: \v 13 He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant will be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant. \p Genesis 17.14: \v 14 The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.” \p \p Genesis 17.15: \v 15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name will be Sarah. \p Genesis 17.16: \v 16 I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she will be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her.” \p \p Genesis 17.17: \v 17 Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, “Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old? Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?” \p Genesis 17.18: \v 18 Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!” \p \p Genesis 17.19: \v 19 God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son. You shall call his name Isaac.\f + \fr 17:19 \ft Isaac means “he laughs”.\f* I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him. \p Genesis 17.20: \v 20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation. \p Genesis 17.21: \v 21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.” \p \p Genesis 17.22: \v 22 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham. \p Genesis 17.23: \v 23 Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money: every male among the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him. \p Genesis 17.24: \v 24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. \p Genesis 17.25: \v 25 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. \p Genesis 17.26: \v 26 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised. \p Genesis 17.27: \v 27 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him. \p Psalms 127.0: \p Psalms 127.1: \p Psalms 127.2: \p Psalms 127.3: \p Psalms 127.4: \p Psalms 127.5: \p Ezekiel 28.0: \p Ezekiel 28.1: \p Ezekiel 28.2: \p Ezekiel 28.3: \p Ezekiel 28.4: \p Ezekiel 28.5: \p Ezekiel 28.6: \p Ezekiel 28.7: \p Ezekiel 28.8: \p Ezekiel 28.9: \p Ezekiel 28.10: \p Ezekiel 28.11: \p Ezekiel 28.12: \p Ezekiel 28.13: \p Ezekiel 28.14: \p Ezekiel 28.15: \p Ezekiel 28.16: \p Ezekiel 28.17: \p Ezekiel 28.18: \p Ezekiel 28.19: \p Ezekiel 28.20: \p Ezekiel 28.21: \p Ezekiel 28.22: \p Ezekiel 28.23: \p Ezekiel 28.24: \p Ezekiel 28.25: \p Ezekiel 28.26: \p 1 Corinthians 14.0: \c 14 \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.1: \v 1 Follow after love and earnestly desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. \p 1 Corinthians 14.2: \v 2 For he who speaks in another language speaks not to men, but to God; for no one understands; but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries. \p 1 Corinthians 14.3: \v 3 But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, exhortation, and consolation. \p 1 Corinthians 14.4: \v 4 He who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the assembly. \p 1 Corinthians 14.5: \v 5 Now I desire to have you all speak with other languages, but rather that you would prophesy. For he is greater who prophesies than he who speaks with other languages, unless he interprets, that the assembly may be built up. \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.6: \v 6 But now, brothers,\f + \fr 14:6 \ft The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” \f* if I come to you speaking with other languages, what would I profit you, unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching? \p 1 Corinthians 14.7: \v 7 Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they didn’t give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped? \p 1 Corinthians 14.8: \v 8 For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war? \p 1 Corinthians 14.9: \v 9 So also you, unless you uttered by the tongue words easy to understand, how would it be known what is spoken? For you would be speaking into the air. \p 1 Corinthians 14.10: \v 10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of sounds in the world, and none of them is without meaning. \p 1 Corinthians 14.11: \v 11 If then I don’t know the meaning of the sound, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me. \p 1 Corinthians 14.12: \v 12 So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly. \p 1 Corinthians 14.13: \v 13 Therefore let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret. \p 1 Corinthians 14.14: \v 14 For if I pray in another language, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.15: \v 15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. \p 1 Corinthians 14.16: \v 16 Otherwise if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the “Amen” at your giving of thanks, seeing he doesn’t know what you say? \p 1 Corinthians 14.17: \v 17 For you most certainly give thanks well, but the other person is not built up. \p 1 Corinthians 14.18: \v 18 I thank my God, I speak with other languages more than you all. \p 1 Corinthians 14.19: \v 19 However in the assembly I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language. \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.20: \v 20 Brothers, don’t be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature. \p 1 Corinthians 14.21: \v 21 In the law it is written, “By men of strange languages and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people. They won’t even hear me that way, says the Lord.”\x + \xo 14:21 \xt Isaiah 28:11-12\x* \p 1 Corinthians 14.22: \v 22 Therefore other languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe. \p 1 Corinthians 14.23: \v 23 If therefore the whole assembly is assembled together and all speak with other languages, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won’t they say that you are crazy? \p 1 Corinthians 14.24: \v 24 But if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all. \p 1 Corinthians 14.25: \v 25 And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed. So he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed. \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.26: \v 26 What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, or has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up. \p 1 Corinthians 14.27: \v 27 If any man speaks in another language, let it be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret. \p 1 Corinthians 14.28: \v 28 But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself, and to God. \p 1 Corinthians 14.29: \v 29 Let the prophets speak, two or three, and let the others discern. \p 1 Corinthians 14.30: \v 30 But if a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first keep silent. \p 1 Corinthians 14.31: \v 31 For you all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be exhorted. \p 1 Corinthians 14.32: \v 32 The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets, \p 1 Corinthians 14.33: \v 33 for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace, as in all the assemblies of the saints. \p 1 Corinthians 14.34: \v 34 Let the wives be quiet in the assemblies, for it has not been permitted for them to be talking except in submission, as the law also says,\x + \xo 14:34 \xt Deuteronomy 27:9\x* \p 1 Corinthians 14.35: \v 35 if they desire to learn anything. “Let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a wife to be talking in the assembly.” \p 1 Corinthians 14.36: \v 36 What!? Was it from you that the word of God went out? Or did it come to you alone? \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.37: \v 37 If any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord. \p 1 Corinthians 14.38: \v 38 But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant. \p \p 1 Corinthians 14.39: \v 39 Therefore, brothers, desire earnestly to prophesy, and don’t forbid speaking with other languages. \p 1 Corinthians 14.40: \v 40 Let all things be done decently and in order. \p Hebrews 0.0: \p Daniel (Greek) 0.0:
