23 “You shall not bring a false report, nor shall you put in your hand with the wicked, to be a false witness.

3 “You shall not be partial to a poor man in his cause.
4 “If you meet your enemy’s ox, or his donkey, going astray, you shall bring it back to him.

6 “You shall not pervert the rights of the poor in his suit.
7 “You shall keep yourself far from a false matter. You shall kill neither the innocent nor the righteous. For I will not justify the wicked.

10 “Moreover, six years you shall sow your land, and gather its fruits.
11 “But the seventh year, you shall let it rest, and lie still, so that the poor of your people may eat. And what they leave, the wild animals shall eat. You shall do likewise with your vineyard and with your olive trees.
12 “Six days you shall do your work; and on the seventh day you shall rest, so that your ox and your donkey may rest, and the son of your maid and the stranger may be refreshed.

15 “You shall keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread: You shall eat unleavened bread for seven days, as I commanded you, in the season of the month of Abib. For in it, you came out of Egypt. And no one shall appear before Me empty.
16 Also, The Feast of the Harvest of the first fruits of your labors (which you have sown in the field) and the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you have gathered in your labors from the field.
17 “Three times in the year shall all your male children appear before the Lord GOD.
18 “You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leavened bread. Nor shall the fat of My sacrifice remain until the morning.
19 “The first of the firstfruits of your land, you shall bring into the House of the LORD your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother’s milk.
20 “Behold, I send an angel before you, to keep you on your way, and to bring you to the place which I have prepared.
21 “Pay attention to him and hear his voice. Do not provoke him. For he will not spare your misdeeds, because my Name is in him.
22 “But if you listen to his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and will afflict those who afflict you.

30 “I will gradually drive them out from before you, until you increase and inherit the land.
31 “And I will make your boundaries from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the river. For I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and you shall drive them out from before you.
32 “You shall make no covenant with them or with their gods.
33 “Nor shall they dwell in the land, lest they make you sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, it shall surely be to your destruction.”
2 And on the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. And the mother of Jesus was there.
2 And Jesus was also invited, with His disciples, to the marriage.
3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”
4 And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what is that to us? My hour has not yet come.”
5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
6 Now there were set there, six water pots of stone, for the purifying of the Jews, containing 20 to 30 gallons apiece.
7 And Jesus said to them, “Fill the water pots with water.” Then they filled them up to the brim.
8 Then He said to them, “Draw from them now, and take it to the master of the feast.” So, they brought it.
9 Now when the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, (for he knew not from where it came; but the servants who drew the water knew) the master of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 and said to him, “All men at the beginning set out good wine; and when all have drunk freely, then that which is worse. But you have withheld the good wine until now!”
11 Jesus did this beginning of miracles in Cana of Galilee and showed forth His Glory. And His disciples believed in Him.
12 After that, He went down into Capernaum, He and his mother, and His brothers, and His disciples. And they did not stay there long.
13 For the Jews’ Passover was at hand. Therefore, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 And He found in the Temple those who sold oxen, and sheep, and doves. And moneychangers were sitting there.
15 Then He made a whip of small cords and drove them all out of the Temple, with the sheep and oxen; and poured out the changers’ money; and overthrew their tables.
16 And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make My father’s house a house of merchandise!”
17 And His disciples remembered that it was written, “The zeal of Your House has devoured me.”
18 Then answered the Jews, and said to Him, “What sign do You show us saying You may do these things?”
19 Jesus answered, and said to them, “Destroy this Temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”
20 Then the Jews said, “Forty-six years it took to build this Temple, and You will raise it up in three days?”
21 But He spoke of the Temple of His Body.
22 Therefore, as soon as He was risen from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this to them. And they believed the Scriptures, and the Word which Jesus had said.
23 Now when He was at Jerusalem, at the Passover, at the feast, many believed in His Name when they saw the miracles which He did.
24 But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, because He knew all,
25 and had no need for anyone to testify concerning man. He knew what was in a man.
41 “No one is so fierce who dares stir him up. Who, then, is he who can stand before Me?
2 “Who has preceded Me that I should appease? All under heaven is Mine.
3 “I will not keep silent concerning his parts, or his power, or his comely proportion.
4 “Who can discover the face of his garment? Who shall come to him with a double bridle?
5 “Who shall open the doors of his face? His teeth are fearful all around.
6 “The majesty of his scales is like strong shields and are sure-sealed.
7 “One is so near to another, so that no wind can come between them.
8 “One is joined to another. They stick together, so that they cannot be parted.
9 “His sneezes make the light shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
10 “Out of his mouth go lamps, and sparks of fire leap out.
11 “Out of his nostrils comes out smoke, as out of a boiling pot or caldron.
12 “His breath makes the coals burn, for a flame goes out of his mouth.
13 “In his neck remains strength, and labor is rejected before his face.
14 “The members of his body are joined. They are strong in themselves and cannot be moved.
15 “His heart is as strong as a stone, and as hard as the lower millstone.
16 “The mighty are afraid of his majesty. They faint in themselves for fear.
17 “When the sword touches him, he will not rise up. Nor for the spear, dart or javelin.
18 “He esteems iron as straw, and bronze as rotten wood.
19 “The archer cannot make him flee. The stones of the sling are turned into stubble to him.
20 “The darts are counted as straw, and he laughs at the shaking of the spear.
21 “Sharp stones are under him, and he spreads sharp things upon the mire.
22 “He makes the depth boil like a pot, and makes the sea like a pot of ointment.
23 “He makes a path shine after him. One would think the deep had white hair.
24 “There is no one like him on the Earth. He is made without fear.
25 “He beholds all high things. He is a king over all the children of pride.”
11 I wish you could suffer a little of my foolishness, and indeed, suffer me.
2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy. For I have prepared you for one husband; to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
3 Yet I fear, however, that just as the serpent tricked Eve through his subtlety, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if someone comes, preaching another Jesus whom we have not preached - or if you receive another spirit whom you have not received, or another gospel which you have not received - you might well tolerate him.
5 For I suppose that I am not inferior to the very chief Apostles.
6 And though I am unskilled in speaking, I am not so in knowledge. And among you we have made ourselves clearly understood in all things.
7 Have I committed an offense because I abased myself, that you might be exalted; and because I freely preached to you the Gospel of God?
8 I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to do you service.
9 And when I was present with you, and had need, I was not a hindrance to anyone. For that which I was lacking, the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied. And in all things, I have myself from being burdensome to you, and will keep doing so.
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, this rejoicing shall not be taken from me in the regions of Achaia.
11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.
12 But what I do I will do so that I may cut off the opportunity of those who desire the opportunity to be found like us in that of which they boast.
13 For such false apostles are deceitful workers and transform themselves into the Apostles of Christ.
14 And it is no wonder; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore, it is no great thing for his ministers to transform themselves, as though they were the ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works.
16 I say again, let no one think that I am foolish, (or even take me as a fool) that I may also boast of myself a little.
17 What I speak, I do not speak according to the Lord but, as it were, foolishly, while we are boasting.
18 Seeing that many rejoice after the flesh, I will rejoice also.
19 For you endure fools gladly, because you are wise.
20 For you endure, even if someone enslaves you, if someone devours you, if someone takes from you, if someone exalts himself, if someone strikes you on the face.
21 Concerning dishonor I speak as though we were weak. But wherein anyone is bold (I speak foolishly) I am bold also.
22 They are Hebrews, so am I. They are Israelites, so am I. They are the seed of Abraham, so am I.
23 They are the ministers of Christ. (I speak as a fool) I am more: in labors, more abundant; in stripes, above measure; in prison, more exceedingly; in death, often.
24 Five times I have received forty stripes minus one from the Jews.
25 Three times I was beaten with rods. I was once stoned. I suffered shipwreck three times. Night and day, I have been on the deep sea.
26 While journeying I was often in perils from waters, in perils from robbers, in perils from my own nation, in perils among the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brothers,
27 in weariness and painfulness, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and in nakedness.
28 Besides outward things, I am daily-laden, and care for all the churches.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is offended, and I do not burn?
30 If I must boast, I will boast of my infirmities.
31 The God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who is blessed forevermore, knows that I do not lie.
32 In Damascus, the governor of the people under King Aretas posted a guard over the city of the Damascenes and would have caught me.
33 But at a window, I was let down in a basket, through the wall, and escaped his hands.
