Hebrews 8:6-13

6 But now he hath obtained a better ministry, by how much also he is a mediator of a better testament which is established on better promises.

7 For if that former had been faultless, there should not indeed a place have been sought for a second.

8 For, finding fault with them, he saith: Behold the days shall come, saith the Lord: and I will perfect, unto the house of Israel and unto the house of Juda, a new testament:

9 Not according to the testament which I made to their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt: because they continued not in my testament: and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

10 For this is the testament which I will make to the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will give my laws into their mind: and in their heart will I write them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people.

11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying: Know the Lord. For all shall know me, from the least to the greatest of them.

12 Because I will be merciful to their iniquities: and their sins I will remember no more.

13 Now in saying a new, he hath made the former old. And that which decayeth and groweth old is near its end.

Psalms 85:8-13

8 (84-9) I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me: for he will speak peace unto his people: And unto his saints: and unto them that are converted to the heart.

9 (84-10) Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him:that glory may dwell in our land.

10 (84-11) Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed.

11 (84-12) Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.

12 (84-13) For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit.

13 (84-14) Justice shall walk before him: and ,shall set his steps in the way.

Mark 3:13-19

13 And going up into a mountain, he called unto him whom he would himself: and they came to him.

14 And he made that twelve should be with him, and that he might send them to preach.

15 And he gave them power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils.

16 And to Simon he gave the name Peter:

17 And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he named them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder.

18 And Andrew and Philip, and Bartholomew and Matthew, and Thomas and James of Alpheus, and Thaddeus and Simon the Cananean:

19 And Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
