Psalms 103

1 (102-1) <For David himself.> Bless the Lord, O my soul: and let all that is within me bless his holy name.
2 (102-2) Bless the Lord, O my soul, and never forget all he hath done for thee.
3 (102-3) Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.
4 (102-4) Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.
5 (102-5) Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle’s.
6 (102-6) The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.
7 (102-7) He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.
8 (102-8) The Lord is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.
9 (102-9) He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.
10 (102-10) He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 (102-11) For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.
12 (102-12) As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.
13 (102-13) As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:
14 (102-14) For he knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are dust:
15 (102-15) Man’s days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.
16 (102-16) For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more.
17 (102-17) But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity and unto eternity upon them that fear him: And his justice unto children’s children,
18 (102-18) To such as keep his covenant, And are mindful of his commandments to do them.
19 (102-19) The lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.
20 (102-20) Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.
21 (102-21) Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.
22 (102-22) Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou the Lord.

Psalms 104

1 (103-1) <For David himself.> Bless the Lord, O my soul: O Lord my God, thou art exceedingly great. Thou hast put on praise and beauty:
2 (103-2) And art clothed with light as with a garment. Who stretchest out the heaven like a pavilion:
3 (103-3) Who coverest the higher rooms thereof with water. Who makest the clouds thy chariot: who walkest upon the wings of the winds.
4 (103-4) Who makest thy angels spirits: and thy ministers a burning fire.
5 (103-5) Who hast founded the earth upon its own bases: it shall not be moved for ever and ever.
6 (103-6) The deep like a garment is its clothing: above the mountains shall the waters stand.
7 (103-7) At thy rebuke they shall flee: at the voice of thy thunder they shall fear.
8 (103-8) The mountains ascend, and the plains descend into the place which thou hast founded for them.
9 (103-9) Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass over; neither shall they return to cover the earth.
10 (103-10) Thou sendest forth springs in the vales: between the midst of the hills the waters shall pass.
11 (103-11) All the beasts of the field shall drink: the wild asses shall expect in their thirst.
12 (103-12) Over them the birds of the air shall dwell: from the midst of the rocks they shall give forth their voices.
13 (103-13) Thou waterest the hills from thy upper rooms: the earth shall be filled with the fruit of thy works:
14 (103-14) Bringing forth grass for cattle, and herb for the service of men. That thou mayst bring bread out of the earth:
15 (103-15) And that wine may cheer the heart of man. That he may make the face cheerful with oil: and that bread may strengthen man’s heart.
16 (103-16) The trees of the field shall be filled, and the cedars of Libanus which he hath planted:
17 (103-17) There the sparrows shall make their nests. The highest of them is the house of the heron.
18 (103-18) The high hills are a refuge for the harts, the rock for the irchins.
19 (103-19) He hath made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.
20 (103-20) Thou hast appointed darkness, and it is night: in it shall all the beasts of the woods go about:
21 (103-21) The young lions roaring after their prey, and seeking their meat from God.
22 (103-22) The sun ariseth, and they are gathered together: and they shall lie down in their dens.
23 (103-23) Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour until the evening.
24 (103-24) How great are thy works, O Lord? thou hast made all things in wisdom: the earth is filled with thy riches.
25 (103-25) So is this great sea, which stretcheth wide its arms: there are creeping things without number: Creatures little and great.
26 (103-26) There the ships shall go. This sea dragon which thou hast formed to play therein.
27 (103-27) All expect of thee that thou give them food in season.
28 (103-28) What thou givest to them they shall gather up: when thou openest thy hand, they shall all be filled with good.
29 (103-29) But if thou turnest away thy face, they shall be troubled: thou shalt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and shall return to their dust.
30 (103-30) Thou shalt send forth thy spirit, and they shall be created: and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
31 (103-31) May the glory of the Lord endure for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works.
32 (103-32) He looketh upon the earth, and maketh it tremble: he troubleth the mountains, and they smoke.
33 (103-33) I will sing to the Lord as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
34 (103-34) Let my speech be acceptable to him: but I will take delight in the Lord.
35 (103-35) Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and the unjust, so that they be no more: O my soul, bless thou the Lord.

1 Corinthians 2

1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of Christ.
2 For I judged not myself to know anything among you, but Jesus Christ: and him crucified.
3 And I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling.
4 And my speech and my preaching was not in the persuasive words of human wisdom. but in shewing of the Spirit and power:
5 That your faith might not stand on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, neither of the princes of this world that come to nought.
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory:
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew. For if they had known it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory.
9 But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard: neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But to us God hath revealed them by his Spirit. For the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God, no man knoweth, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now, we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit that is of God: that we may know the things that are given us from God.
13 Which things also we speak: not in the learned words of human wisdom, but in the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God. For it is foolishness to him: and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined.
15 But the spiritual man judgeth all things: and he himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
