Doctrine and Covenants
107:1 - THERE are, in the church, two priesthoods, namely, the Melchizedek and Aaronic, including the Levitical Priesthood.
107:2 - Why the first is called the Melchizedek Priesthood is because Melchizedek was such a great high priest.
107:3 - Before his day it was called the Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God.
107:4 - But out of respect or reverence to the name of the Supreme Being, to avoid the too frequent repetition of his name, they, the church, in ancient days, called that priesthood after Melchizedek, or the Melchizedek Priesthood.
107:5 - All other authorities or offices in the church are appendages to this priesthood.
107:6 - But there are two divisions or grand heads--one is the Melchizedek Priesthood, and the other is the Aaronic or Levitical Priesthood.
107:7 - The office of an elder comes under the priesthood of Melchizedek.
107:8 - The Melchizedek Priesthood holds the right of presidency, and has power and authority over all the offices in the church in all ages of the world, to administer in spiritual things.
107:9 - The Presidency of the High Priesthood, after the order of Melchizedek, have a right to officiate in all the offices in the church.
107:10 - High priests after the order of the Melchizedek Priesthood have a right to officiate in their own standing, under the direction of the presidency, in administering spiritual things, and also in the office of an elder, priest (of the Levitical order), teacher, deacon, and member.
107:11 - An elder has a right to officiate in his stead when the high priest is not present.
107:12 - The high priest and elder are to administer in spiritual things, agreeable to the covenants and commandments of the church; and they have a right to officiate in all these offices of the church when there are no higher authorities present.
107:13 - The second priesthood is called the Priesthood of Aaron, because it was conferred upon Aaron and his seed, throughout all their generations.
107:14 - Why it is called the lesser priesthood is because it is an appendage to the greater, or the Melchizedek Priesthood, and has power in administering outward ordinances.
107:15 - The bishopric is the presidency of this priesthood, and holds the keys or authority of the same.
107:16 - No man has a legal right to this office, to hold the keys of this priesthood, except he be a literal descendant of Aaron.
107:17 - But as a high priest of the Melchizedek Priesthood has authority to officiate in all the lesser offices, he may officiate in the office of bishop when no literal descendant of Aaron can be found, provided he is called and set apart and ordained unto this power by the hands of the Presidency of the Melchizedek Priesthood.
107:18 - The power and authority of the higher, or Melchizedek Priesthood, is to hold the keys of all the spiritual blessings of the church--
107:19 - To have the privilege of receiving the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, to have the heavens opened unto them, to commune with the general assembly and church of the Firstborn, and to enjoy the communion and presence of God the Father, and Jesus the mediator of the new covenant.
107:20 - The power and authority of the lesser, or Aaronic Priesthood, is to hold the keys of the ministering of angels, and to administer in outward ordinances, the letter of the gospel, the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, agreeable to the covenants and commandments.
107:21 - Of necessity there are presidents, or presiding officers growing out of, or appointed of or from among those who are ordained to the several offices in these two priesthoods.
107:22 - Of the Melchizedek Priesthood, three Presiding High Priests, chosen by the body, appointed and ordained to that office, and upheld by the confidence, faith, and prayer of the church, form a quorum of the Presidency of the Church.
107:23 - The twelve traveling councilors are called to be the Twelve Apostles, or special witnesses of the name of Christ in all the world--thus differing from other officers in the church in the duties of their calling.
107:24 - And they form a quorum, equal in authority and power to the three presidents previously mentioned.
107:25 - The Seventy are also called to preach the gospel, and to be especial witnesses unto the Gentiles and in all the world--thus differing from other officers in the church in the duties of their calling.
107:26 - And they form a quorum, equal in authority to that of the Twelve special witnesses or Apostles just named.
107:27 - And every decision made by either of these quorums must be by the unanimous voice of the same; that is, every member in each quorum must be agreed to its decisions, in order to make their decisions of the same power or validity one with the other--
107:28 - A majority may form a quorum when circumstances render it impossible to be otherwise--
107:29 - Unless this is the case, their decisions are not entitled to the same blessings which the decisions of a quorum of three presidents were anciently, who were ordained after the order of Melchizedek, and were righteous and holy men.
107:30 - The decisions of these quorums, or either of them, are to be made in all righteousness, in holiness, and lowliness of heart, meekness and long suffering, and in faith, and virtue, and knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness and charity;
107:31 - Because the promise is, if these things abound in them they shall not be unfruitful in the knowledge of the Lord.
107:32 - And in case that any decision of these quorums is made in unrighteousness, it may be brought before a general assembly of the several quorums, which constitute the spiritual authorities of the church; otherwise there can be no appeal from their decision.
107:33 - The Twelve are a Traveling Presiding High Council, to officiate in the name of the Lord, under the direction of the Presidency of the Church, agreeable to the institution of heaven; to build up the church, and regulate all the affairs of the same in all nations, first unto the Gentiles and secondly unto the Jews.
107:34 - The Seventy are to act in the name of the Lord, under the direction of the Twelve or the traveling high council, in building up the church and regulating all the affairs of the same in all nations, first unto the Gentiles and then to the Jews;

107:39 - It is the duty of the Twelve, in all large branches of the church, to ordain evangelical ministers, as they shall be designated unto them by revelation--
107:40 - The order of this priesthood was confirmed to be handed down from father to son, and rightly belongs to the literal descendants of the chosen seed, to whom the promises were made.
107:41 - This order was instituted in the days of Adam, and came down by lineage in the following manner:
107:42 - From Adam to Seth, who was ordained by Adam at the age of sixty-nine years, and was blessed by him three years previous to his (Adam's) death, and received the promise of God by his father, that his posterity should be the chosen of the Lord, and that they should be preserved unto the end of the earth;
107:43 - Because he (Seth) was a perfect man, and his likeness was the express likeness of his father, insomuch that he seemed to be like unto his father in all things, and could be distinguished from him only by his age.
107:44 - Enos was ordained at the age of one hundred and thirty-four years and four months, by the hand of Adam.
107:45 - God called upon Cainan in the wilderness in the fortieth year of his age; and he met Adam in journeying to the place Shedolamak. He was eighty-seven years old when he received his ordination.
107:46 - Mahalaleel was four hundred and ninety-six years and seven days old when he was ordained by the hand of Adam, who also blessed him.
107:47 - Jared was two hundred years old when he was ordained under the hand of Adam, who also blessed him.
107:48 - Enoch was twenty-five years old when he was ordained under the hand of Adam; and he was sixty-five and Adam blessed him.
107:49 - And he saw the Lord, and he walked with him, and was before his face continually; and he walked with God three hundred and sixty-five years, making him four hundred and thirty years old when he was translated.
107:50 - Methuselah was one hundred years old when he was ordained under the hand of Adam.
107:51 - Lamech was thirty-two years old when he was ordained under the hand of Seth.
107:52 - Noah was ten years old when he was ordained under the hand of Methuselah.
107:53 - Three years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch, and Methuselah, who were all high priests, with the residue of his posterity who were righteous, into the valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman, and there bestowed upon them his last blessing.
107:54 - And the Lord appeared unto them, and they rose up and blessed Adam, and called him Michael, the prince, the archangel.
107:55 - And the Lord administered comfort unto Adam, and said unto him: I have set thee to be at the head; a multitude of nations shall come of thee, and thou art a prince over them forever.
107:56 - And Adam stood up in the midst of the congregation; and, notwithstanding he was bowed down with age, being full of the Holy Ghost, predicted whatsoever should befall his posterity unto the latest generation.
107:57 - These things were all written in the book of Enoch, and are to be testified of in due time.
107:58 - It is the duty of the Twelve, also, to ordain and set in order all the other officers of the church, agreeable to the revelation which says:
107:59 - To the church of Christ in the land of Zion, in addition to the church laws respecting church business--
107:60 - Verily, I say unto you, saith the Lord of Hosts, there must needs be presiding elders to preside over those who are of the office of an elder;
107:61 - And also priests to preside over those who are of the office of a priest;
107:62 - And also teachers to preside over those who are of the office of a teacher, in like manner, and also the deacons--
107:63 - Wherefore, from deacon to teacher, and from teacher to priest, and from priest to elder, severally as they are appointed, according to the covenants and commandments of the church.
107:64 - Then comes the High Priesthood, which is the greatest of all.
107:65 - Wherefore, it must needs be that one be appointed of the High Priesthood to preside over the priesthood, and he shall be called President of the High Priesthood of the Church;
107:66 - Or, in other words, the Presiding High Priest over the High Priesthood of the Church.
107:67 - From the same comes the administering of ordinances and blessings upon the church, by the laying on of the hands.
107:68 - Wherefore, the office of a bishop is not equal unto it; for the office of a bishop is in administering all temporal things;
107:69 - Nevertheless a bishop must be chosen from the High Priesthood, unless he is a literal descendant of Aaron;
107:70 - For unless he is a literal descendant of Aaron he cannot hold the keys of that priesthood.
107:71 - Nevertheless, a high priest, that is, after the order of Melchizedek, may be set apart unto the ministering of temporal things, having a knowledge of them by the Spirit of truth;
107:72 - And also to be a judge in Israel, to do the business of the church, to sit in judgment upon transgressors upon testimony as it shall be laid before him according to the laws, by the assistance of his counselors, whom he has chosen or will choose among the elders of the church.
107:73 - This is the duty of a bishop who is not a literal descendant of Aaron, but has been ordained to the High Priesthood after the order of Melchizedek.
107:74 - Thus shall he be a judge, even a common judge among the inhabitants of Zion, or in a stake of Zion, or in any branch of the church where he shall be set apart unto this ministry, until the borders of Zion are enlarged and it becomes necessary to have other bishops or judges in Zion or elsewhere.
107:75 - And inasmuch as there are other bishops appointed they shall act in the same office.
107:76 - But a literal descendant of Aaron has a legal right to the presidency of this priesthood, to the keys of this ministry, to act in the office of bishop independently, without counselors, except in a case where a President of the High Priesthood, after the order of Melchizedek, is tried, to sit as a judge in Israel.
107:77 - And the decision of either of these councils, agreeable to the commandment which says:
107:78 - Again, verily, I say unto you, the most important business of the church, and the most difficult cases of the church, inasmuch as there is not satisfaction upon the decision of the bishop or judges, it shall be handed over and carried up unto the council of the church, before the Presidency of the High Priesthood.
107:79 - And the Presidency of the council of the High Priesthood shall have power to call other high priests, even twelve, to assist as counselors; and thus the Presidency of the High Priesthood and its counselors shall have power to decide upon testimony according to the laws of the church.
107:80 - And after this decision it shall be had in remembrance no more before the Lord; for this is the highest council of the church of God, and a final decision upon controversies in spiritual matters.
107:81 - There is not any person belonging to the church who is exempt from this council of the church.
107:82 - And inasmuch as a President of the High Priesthood shall transgress, he shall be had in remembrance before the common council of the church, who shall be assisted by twelve counselors of the High Priesthood;
107:83 - And their decision upon his head shall be an end of controversy concerning him.
107:84 - Thus, none shall be exempted from the justice and the laws of God, that all things may be done in order and in solemnity before him, according to truth and righteousness.
107:85 - And again, verily I say unto you, the duty of a president over the office of a deacon is to preside over twelve deacons, to sit in council with them, and to teach them their duty, edifying one another, as it is given according to the covenants.
107:86 - And also the duty of the president over the office of the teachers is to preside over twenty-four of the teachers, and to sit in council with them, teaching them the duties of their office, as given in the covenants.
107:87 - Also the duty of the president over the Priesthood of Aaron is to preside over forty-eight priests, and sit in council with them, to teach them the duties of their office, as is given in the covenants--
107:88 - This president is to be a bishop; for this is one of the duties of this priesthood.
107:89 - Again, the duty of the president over the office of elders is to preside over ninety-six elders, and to sit in council with them, and to teach them according to the covenants.
107:90 - This presidency is a distinct one from that of the seventy, and is designed for those who do not travel into all the world.
107:91 - And again, the duty of the President of the office of the High Priesthood is to preside over the whole church, and to be like unto Moses--
107:92 - Behold, here is wisdom; yea, to be a seer, a revelator, a translator, and a prophet, having all the gifts of God which he bestows upon the head of the church.
107:93 - And it is according to the vision showing the order of the Seventy, that they should have seven presidents to preside over them, chosen out of the number of the seventy;
107:94 - And the seventh president of these presidents is to preside over the six;
107:95 - And these seven presidents are to choose other seventy besides the first seventy to whom they belong, and are to preside over them;
107:96 - And also other seventy, until seven times seventy, if the labor in the vineyard of necessity requires it.
107:97 - And these seventy are to be traveling ministers, unto the Gentiles first and also unto the Jews.
107:98 - Whereas other officers of the church, who belong not unto the Twelve, neither to the Seventy, are not under the responsibility to travel among all nations, but are to travel as their circumstances shall allow, notwithstanding they may hold as high and responsible offices in the church.
107:99 - Wherefore, now let every man learn his duty, and to act in the office in which he is appointed, in all diligence.
107:100 - He that is slothful shall not be counted worthy to stand, and he that learns not his duty and shows himself not approved shall not be counted worthy to stand. Even so. Amen.

32:13 - He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
32:14 - Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
32:15 - But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
32:16 - They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.
32:17 - They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
32:18 - Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
32:19 - And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
32:20 - And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.
32:21 - They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
32:22 - For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
32:23 - I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
32:24 - They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
32:25 - The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.
32:26 - I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men:
32:27 - Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.
32:28 - For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
32:29 - O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
32:30 - How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?
32:31 - For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
32:32 - For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:
32:33 - Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
32:34 - Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
32:35 - To me belongeth vengeance and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
32:36 - For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.
32:37 - And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,
32:38 - Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
32:39 - See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
32:40 - For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
32:41 - If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
32:42 - I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
32:43 - Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.
32:44 - And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
32:45 - And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
32:46 - And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
32:47 - For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
32:48 - And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,
32:49 - Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession:
32:50 - And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:
32:51 - Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of MeribahKadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.
32:52 - Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.

32:14 - Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,

32:16 - And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by themselves; and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove.
32:17 - And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee?
32:18 - Then thou shalt say, They be thy servant Jacob's; it is a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, also he is behind us.
32:19 - And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him.
32:20 - And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept of me.

6:7 - Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

6:9 - There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
6:10 - And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
6:11 - And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
6:12 - When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
6:13 - Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
6:14 - Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
6:15 - When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
6:16 - And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
6:17 - And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
6:18 - And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
6:19 - So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
6:20 - But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
6:21 - Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
6:22 - The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
6:23 - (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
6:24 - When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
6:25 - And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
6:26 - Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
6:27 - Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

6:29 - Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
6:30 - They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
6:31 - Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
6:32 - Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
6:33 - For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
6:34 - Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
6:35 - And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
6:36 - But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
6:37 - All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
6:38 - For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
6:39 - And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
6:40 - And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
6:41 - The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
6:42 - And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

6:44 - No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
6:45 - It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
6:46 - Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
6:47 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
6:48 - I am that bread of life.
6:49 - Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
6:50 - This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

6:52 - The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
6:53 - Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
6:54 - Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
6:55 - For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
6:56 - He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
6:57 - As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

6:59 - These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
6:60 - Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
6:61 - When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
6:62 - What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
6:63 - It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
6:64 - But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
6:65 - And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
6:66 - From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
6:67 - Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
6:68 - Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
6:69 - And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
6:70 - Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

7:5 - And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.
7:6 - And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.
7:7 - And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
7:8 - And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.
7:9 - And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
7:10 - And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
7:11 - Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.
7:12 - But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
7:13 - And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.
7:14 - Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.
7:15 - So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
7:16 - And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem.
7:17 - But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
7:18 - Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.
7:19 - The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.
7:20 - In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:
7:21 - And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
7:22 - And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
7:23 - And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
7:24 - And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
7:25 - For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
7:26 - And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
7:27 - But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
7:28 - Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
7:29 - Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.
7:30 - And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
7:31 - When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the LORD came unto him,
7:32 - Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.
7:33 - Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
7:34 - I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.

7:36 - He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
7:37 - This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
7:38 - This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
7:39 - To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
7:40 - Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
7:41 - And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
7:42 - Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
7:43 - Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
7:44 - Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
7:45 - Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
7:46 - Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
7:47 - But Solomon built him an house.
7:48 - Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
7:49 - Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?
7:50 - Hath not my hand made all these things?
7:51 - Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.
7:52 - Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
7:53 - Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.
7:54 - When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.
7:55 - But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
7:56 - And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
7:57 - Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
7:58 - And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.
7:59 - And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
7:60 - And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

32:6 - And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
32:7 - Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed: and he divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and herds, and the camels, into two bands;
32:8 - And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite it, then the other company which is left shall escape.

32:14 - Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,

John (New Testament)
5:1 - After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
5:2 - Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
5:3 - In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
5:4 - For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5:5 - And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
5:6 - When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
5:7 - The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
5:8 - Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
5:9 - And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
5:10 - The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
5:11 - He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
5:12 - Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
5:13 - And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
5:14 - Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
5:15 - The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
5:16 - And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
5:17 - But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
5:18 - Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
5:19 - Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
5:20 - For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
5:21 - For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
5:22 - For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
5:23 - That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
5:24 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
5:25 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
5:26 - For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
5:27 - And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
5:28 - Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
5:29 - And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
5:30 - I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
5:31 - If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
5:32 - There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
5:33 - Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
5:34 - But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.
5:35 - He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
5:36 - But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
5:37 - And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
5:38 - And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
5:39 - Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
5:40 - And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
5:41 - I receive not honour from men.
5:42 - But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
5:43 - I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
5:44 - How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
5:45 - Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
5:46 - For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
5:47 - But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

22:18 - For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
22:19 - And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

Ezekiel (Old Testament)
1:1 - Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
1:2 - In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,
1:3 - The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him.
1:4 - And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
1:5 - Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.
1:6 - And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
1:7 - And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass.

1:9 - Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
1:10 - As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.

1:12 - And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.
1:13 - As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
1:14 - And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
1:15 - Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.

Romans (New Testament)
10:1 - Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
10:2 - For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
10:3 - For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
10:4 - For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
10:5 - For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
10:6 - But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
10:7 - Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
10:8 - But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
10:9 - That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10:10 - For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
10:11 - For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
10:12 - For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
10:13 - For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
10:14 - How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
10:15 - And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
10:16 - But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
10:17 - So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
10:18 - But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
10:19 - But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
10:20 - But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.
10:21 - But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.

7:1 - In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters.
7:2 - Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.
7:3 - And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
7:4 - The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
7:5 - And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
7:6 - After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7:7 - After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
7:8 - I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
7:9 - I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.
7:10 - A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
7:11 - I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
7:12 - As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.
7:13 - I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
7:14 - And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
7:15 - I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
7:16 - I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
7:17 - These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
7:18 - But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
7:19 - Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
7:20 - And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.
7:21 - I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
7:22 - Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
7:23 - Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
7:24 - And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
7:25 - And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
7:26 - But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
7:27 - And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
7:28 - Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.
