Psalm 65:9-13
New International Version
9 You care for the land and water it;(A)
you enrich it abundantly.(B)
The streams of God are filled with water
to provide the people with grain,(C)
for so you have ordained it.[a]
10 You drench its furrows and level its ridges;
you soften it with showers(D) and bless its crops.
11 You crown the year with your bounty,(E)
and your carts overflow with abundance.(F)
12 The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;(G)
the hills are clothed with gladness.(H)
13 The meadows are covered with flocks(I)
and the valleys are mantled with grain;(J)
they shout for joy and sing.(K)

Psalm 65:9-13
King James Version
9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.
10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.
11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.

Isaiah 48:6-11
New International Version
6 You have heard these things; look at them all.
Will you not admit them?
“From now on I will tell you of new things,(A)
of hidden things unknown to you.
7 They are created(B) now, and not long ago;(C)
you have not heard of them before today.
So you cannot say,
‘Yes, I knew(D) of them.’
8 You have neither heard nor understood;(E)
from of old your ears(F) have not been open.
Well do I know how treacherous(G) you are;
you were called a rebel(H) from birth.
9 For my own name’s sake(I) I delay my wrath;(J)
for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you,
so as not to destroy you completely.(K)
10 See, I have refined(L) you, though not as silver;
I have tested(M) you in the furnace(N) of affliction.
11 For my own sake,(O) for my own sake, I do this.
How can I let myself be defamed?(P)
I will not yield my glory to another.(Q)
Isaiah 48:6-11
King James Version
Isaiah 48:6-11
King James Version
6 Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
8 Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
9 For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.

Romans 15:14-21
New International Version
Paul the Minister to the Gentiles
14 I myself am convinced, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness,(A) filled with knowledge(B) and competent to instruct one another. 15 Yet I have written you quite boldly on some points to remind you of them again, because of the grace God gave me(C) 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles.(D) He gave me the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God,(E) so that the Gentiles might become an offering(F) acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
17 Therefore I glory in Christ Jesus(G) in my service to God.(H) 18 I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles(I) to obey God(J) by what I have said and done— 19 by the power of signs and wonders,(K) through the power of the Spirit of God.(L) So from Jerusalem(M) all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.(N) 20 It has always been my ambition to preach the gospel(O) where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.(P) 21 Rather, as it is written:

Romans 15:14-21
King James Version
14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God,
16 That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.
17 I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.
18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,
19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.
20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:
21 But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.
