lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.

Judgment on Judah and Jerusalem
3 For behold, the (A)Lord God of hosts
is taking away from Jerusalem and from Judah
support and supply,[a]
all (B)support of bread,
and all support of water;
2 (C)the mighty man and the soldier,
the judge and the prophet,
the diviner and the elder,
3 the captain of fifty
and the man of rank,
the counselor and the skillful magician
and the expert in charms.
4 (D)And I will make boys their princes,
and infants[b] shall rule over them.
5 (E)And the people will oppress one another,
every one his fellow
and every one his neighbor;
the youth will be insolent to the elder,
and the despised to the honorable.

Hebrews 11:32-40
English Standard Version
32 And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of (A)Gideon, (B)Barak, (C)Samson, (D)Jephthah, of (E)David and (F)Samuel and the prophets— 33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, (G)stopped the mouths of lions, 34 (H)quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, (I)became mighty in war, (J)put foreign armies to flight. 35 (K)Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life. 36 Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even (L)chains and imprisonment. 37 (M)They were stoned, they were sawn in two,[a] (N)they were killed with the sword. (O)They went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated— 38 of whom the world was not worthy—(P)wandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
39 And all these, (Q)though commended through their faith, (R)did not receive what was promised, 40 since God had provided something better for us, (S)that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

Philippians 1:21-30
English Standard Version
21 For to me (A)to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 (B)I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is (C)to depart and (D)be with Christ, for that is far better. 24 But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account. 25 (E)Convinced of this, (F)I know that I will remain and continue with you all, for your (G)progress and (H)joy in the faith, 26 so that in me (I)you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.
27 Only (J)let your manner of life be (K)worthy[a] of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you (L)that you are standing firm in one spirit, with (M)one mind (N)striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is (O)a clear sign to them of their destruction, but (P)of your salvation, and that from God. 29 For (Q)it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also (R)suffer for his sake, 30 engaged in the same (S)conflict that (T)you saw I had and now hear that I still have.
